Those pictures are taken in the lobby of a building in Zamalek. As you can see, some people take Valentine's day way too seriously…
Amazing, ehh?

Suddenly I feel like my plans seem a bit cheap 😀
I just wish I had all the money that was spent on those flowers! Damn.
di nas fadia !
I love it. Though I dont see the point in showing your love for your partner and just that (programmed) day. It’s more fun to do these things throughout the year. 🙂
Btw,
in India some people hate this day:

Whoever invented Valentine’s day seriously had no life at all
I bet the guy who invented Valentine’s Day (as a ‘spoil your sweetie day’ at least) was a pussy marauder. Being the first guy to shower the ladies with flowers, candy, and jewelry? Oh yeah, he got some stanky on his hang-down.
must smell pretty damn marvellous though
All this for one person? are you sure? Can you find out from El-Bawab who is this person? 🙂
Are those flowers pre or post wife beating gifts?
On an off topic note, what’s the update with Abdel Karim’s trial? We don’t have good news service out west here and these important stories don’t stand a chance against the blaring siren of Anna Nicole coverage.
For those interested, Valentine’s day is like most holidays, it stemmed from one or a series or events and became a holiday over time. The whole thing started with St. Valentine with a small note to his lover basically saying
“I love you and hope you will be mine.
From,
Your Valentine”
After that, it took off from there and other people started doing it to the point it became a holiday.
“The whole thing started with St. Valentine with a small note to his lover”
This particular version of the legend of Saint Valentine was that he sent this letter to his jailor’s daughter on the day he was to be killed by the Romans because he was a Christian.
Trolling through some Catholic websites I see three saints with this name that were martyred. All on the same day of the year. That seems unlikely to me. I suspect the day has its origins as the Roman fertility holiday of Lupercalia.
Anyway, it is a nice idea that once a year you can shower your loved one in flowers and be romantic without restraint.
All you loveless cynics out there, my beautiful wife of 11 years in June deserves all that and then some, although she’ll probably just get one bouquet and a dinner at the bistro of her choice. I’m lucky to have someone smart enough to have three degrees but blind enough to love me and all my faults!! Of course shee nneds someone to mow the lawn and kill the spiders as the appear!! Quos amor verus tenuit, tenebit!
St Valentine’s is a girly day. Let us all fight for establishing a St Anna Nicole Smith Day.
Boy! Somebody’s gettin some extaordinary snatch! Or he just don’t know any different.
freaks the lot of ’em
happy bdaan day
Tedders!!! May your kind increase!

I’m up for that. Better ANS than Princess Di at any rate (although what would you do on St Di Day – sleep with the mistress and chuck the wife down the stairs?)
An American radio station was pushing for, if I remember correctly, A Steak and a Blow Job Day. The male equivalent of St Valentine’s I suppose.
Charming.
Which raises the obvious question – what exactly is that boy expecting to get? I mean, this seems way beyond oral sex. Maybe letting him sleep with her best friend? A little hard core bondage? I’d be worried if I were her.
(Bitter and cynical crazed loners aren’t the only people who hate St V Day by the way)

ROTFLOL, you guys should have your own TV show! So funny, I love it. I’m all for the steak and BJ day, remember ladies, equality for the sexes!
Happy V day to all, ecspecially the sometimes lonely SM. Can some one send SM a V day card?
“This particular version of the legend of Saint Valentine was that he sent this letter to his jailor’s daughter on the day he was to be killed by the Romans because he was a Christian. ”
Haven’t heard that version before. The one I am referring to took place during the renaissance.
for those who prefer the BJ day
at least they spare some money
😀
and a special gift :

I love Valentine’s day. Because the present I gave her ended being up to my huge advantage 😉
Sure it’s American, commercialized and probably made up by the devil. Cheers for the Devil and the Americans 🙂
Someone is defnitley getting Laid!
I would not want to show pictures like these to my partner!
Half the fun of Vday is pretending you have forgotten it.
She: do you know what day it is tomorrow?
me: its wednesday (*being very dead-pan*)
