Today, I tried convincing my Valentine-hating boyfriend to send me a card, by explaining how important it is to me. He finally agreed and sent me a card. I opened it up, and it wished me 'harmony and well-being on Lupercalia'. What is Lupercalia? It's an ancient Roman festival where men run down the street naked, whipping people with goat skins to encourage fertility. FML

Fall

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

...Okay. Who else just came?

That's why you shouldn't force your boyfriend to do nice things for you. It won't happen (and with good reason).

Ahahahah, your boyfriend is a winner. Give him props for knowing about the roots of this holiday, and if you really didn't think it's funny, don't try to force him to buy you cards ever again.

That's just awesome. I now want that card... If you knew he hated Valentine's Day you shouldn't have tried to make him buy you anything.
