I didn't mean to accuse you of that, I'm sorry xD lol
People getting caught up in obligations and not those genuine feelings is part of the problem. Some people don't celebrate it because they consider it an obligation, but at the same time its almost like rejecting their feelings for that person for that day... at least thats how I've always felt.

Anyway I understand what it is you're saying and I hope you have a wonderful V. Day!
Hope he doesn't spring a diamond ring on you from Kay Jewelers... awkwarrrd.

Invite me to a game if you are. My game is on over there I think, not really paying attention to it.

I get the advertisement tactics, but in general I like the idea of jewelry as a special gift in a long-term relationship, so I'm split. In general I kind of hate popular advertising because it always feels like this devious coercion, but Mad Men is also one of my favorite shows so ..I don't know what the ***.

That Family Guy skit, however, is definitely great. lol

I've never seen Mad Men but one of the stars was on SNL or something recently and was hilarious -- which was refreshing since that's so rarely funny at all anymore. I might have to check out the show since you and I have similar tastes in TV.

And jewelry can be very nice, Cai, when it means something real. ^^

But yeah, heirloom or lab-created or some other option is better, in my opinion.

Seriously, I'm not raging against holidays themselves. It's the marketing... the marketing and the manipulation that get me.

I think things I've said are being broadened and applied to things that have nothing to do with anything at all that I've said. Not talking to you, Cai, on that one. Talking to the person who posted above you.

To that person: Obviously my post wasn't written to Kay Jewelers to ask them to be cool. And you know it. You're arguing for an utterly unrelated point.


Now back to you, Cai ^^

Yram gave me his grandmother's ring some time ago, and I don't even have words for how much that means to me.

He gave it to me with very sweet ceremony, and for the reason that he simply wanted me to have it.

If it had happened to be on a holiday, that wouldn't have added to or taken away from it.

We simply don't feel that we are obligated to exchange gifts on December 25th or February 14th if we otherwise wouldn't have on that specific day.

Okay, I'm really off now.

I don't want to keep going on and on with this.

So again, I hope everyone has as good a day tomorrow as I will, and I hope every day after is as good.

Hehe, we've been together for seven years and I wear his grandmother's ring. We always give each other the perfect gifts. No awkwardness, yay! ^^

Laters!

lol the real question is not the ad but the day. What makes V.Day so special if you're with that special someone every day, giving gifts on bdays, holidays, whenever any other time, what is really V.Day now these days? Whats so Special about it that a TV AD gotta target this day?

Yeah i've seen the TV ad, yeah it sucks. I think it targets the 'poor' people to get some type of loan or get on a payment plan to buy their crap. What i really hate about the TV AD tho is that it targets durning a 'recession'. Yeah i get it, they gotta make money, make a profit. Everyone does.

However, is the TV AD really picking a bad time more or less than trying to target a certain day instead? imo, its a bad time for this type of ad. Like it be cool if they advertised along with it "Easy Payments on good or bad credit" then i'd just chock it up as they're playing off the idea its V.day and nothing else.

So what is vday really? gift giving or a day of reflecting those wonderful moments shared?

imo, its all about the memories and starting new ones that day too.

That's really great, Dulci, that must mean a lot.

And yes, Mad Men big time. If I had the DVDs myself I'd totally let you borrow them. lol I ran through Season 1 & 2 last week in those feverish up-until-6AM nights and am starting on Season 3 tomorrow!

I like the Family guy add with the "Diamonds" commercial where the guy shadow gives the girl shadow a diamond and she goes down on em and it says at the she'll.

"She'll pretty much have to"

With their little epic music in the back ground.
