“Then why bother to celebrate it the Saturday before if it’s BS?”
Same reason I “celebrate” Christmas. Otherwise my balls would be in peril. My moving the date every year doesn’t seem to bother the wife and it lets me avoid about 90% of the bullshit about V day that annoys me. Like jacked up prices and impossible to get restaurant reservations and everyone expecting everything to be all romantic, which is just a bunch of bullcrap.
Dont buy flowers for your girl, wife,… on Valentines. better buy is something not perishable – ie jewelry. it costs more but it’s a better bang for the buck
wow, Pete and Lech are on same page on valentines. of course, I agree too. So 3 of the midtown lunch crew agree.
I’ve been at Convivium recently – excellent.

why bother spending good $$$ to eat out on night where everything is packed and staff/kitchen is rushed and a**holes out to impress their dates.
“All the women I met from Match.com were good looking. All of them made it clear they were interested in sex.
Most of them were psychos.”
DCB, so far this has been my experience. But I’ve only met one psycho. Not looking for a psycho. I gave at the office.
Menu looks good, Slopey.
