This horrible island celebrates VALENTINE'S DAY?!

another terrible Earth holiday created to spread misery and horror. Although I am surprised to see the lack of meat-based gifts this year, I am certain that such a thing is only lying in wait, ready to spring its horrible meaty attack upon my unsuspecting being.

WELL I'M ONTO YOU, VALENTINE'S DAY! YOU SHALL NOT MAKE A FOOL OUT OF ZIM! I will be prepared Ohhh yes such preparedness I will make.

YOU WILL NOT WIN THIS YEAR, VALENTINE'S DAY!!!!!

A vile Earth holiday where love and affection are spread like a terrible disease.

For some reason the gooey feelings are expressed with gifts of meat.

[hot4engines]

We usually tend to give out chocolates and candy 'stead a' meat, Your Greenness.

[irken_elite]

Nonsense. I remember well the meat.

So.. much.. meat..

[hot4engines]

Well, I suppose if you like meat, it IS a good way a'showin' affection. Ain't traditional as far as I remember, though.

[irken_elite]

And chocolates and candy is a suitable substitute for meat? Tell me the connotation. I demand to know!

[hot4engines]

If you're sweet on someone, then you give 'em sweet things! That's how I look at it, anyway.

What is "Valentine's Day"?

[irken_elite]

[Voice]

It is a human holiday in which the phenomenon called 'affection' is shown toward other humans.

A terrible, and useless holiday, I agree.

[coimiceoir]

[Voice]

And people give gifts of meat to show affection? Is it required?

[irken_elite]

[Voice]

From what I gather, it is a tradition that many hold on to, despite how absolutely HORRIBLE it is. And it burns. Oh how does it burn.

[coimiceoir]

[Voice]

Then... they light the meat on fire?

[irken_elite]

[Voice]

Eh? What? No, that would be stupid.

I.. uh.. I meant... eh...

My... my burning LOVE, yes! Eh.. for all.. mankind. Of course.

[In the small silence that follows, one can almost hear her bewildered stare. But she must shake it off fairly easily because her next words are brisk, aloof, and entertained.]

It is an odd tradition, to slaughter the dowry cattle before they are given. The meat will not last forever.

[irken_elite]

[Voice]

Yes, I agree that it is a pointless and stupid tradition, but that is not the point. The point is that all of this spreading of love and afffection brings nothing but misery to all. You would do WELL to stay out of its way, worm-child.
