Calling all single people, what are you doing to survive the 14th?

[Substitute Troll]

Well, being the cynical, cold and economical person that I am, I see being single on the 14th as positive thing. It means I won't have to go out of my way to buy some overpriced gift to "show my affection". I'll just save that money for a time when I can enjoy it myself.

Mass Effect 3 demo and Twisted Metal, duh.

What else could a guy need?

 

[Arfonious]

Me and some friends are having a "forever alone night"

Basicly 4-6 single guys playing boardgames and making sushi

is nice...

 

[park92]

studying for a physics midterm ugh

 

[Joccaren]

1. Game
2. Sleep
3. Game some more
4. Eat some food
5. Keep Gaming
6. ???
7. Profit

Just for the lolz I'd almost do ME+ME2+DA:O and do a 'Romance Marathon' in those games, romancing as many characters as I can from new saves on the day. Would be appropriate for the theme, but just playing the games would be more entertaining.

 

[D0WNT0WN]

I have a bottle of tequilla and an internet connection.

You do the math.

Mass Effect 2 marathon to get all my characters ready

Wont playing Mass Effect 2 remind you of all the couples on Valentines Day.

 

[NeutralDrow]

I didn't even realize it was coming up.

Now that I've remembered, I find I don't especially care, so I'll "survive" by treating it like a normal day.

 

[chadachada123]

I'll be busy as all hell with school and homework, so, eh, I'll probably be too occupied to notice. Luckily. Meh.

Where does the valentines day tradition come from?

If its somewhere in Europe, download Medieval II and spend your day crushing that country.

from ancient rome. It was first established by Pope Gelasius I in 496 AD, and was later deleted from the General Roman Calendar of saints in 1969 by Pope Paul VI.
medieval 2 is too 'advanced'

snip

why not go out and meet the other singles to hook up on that day?

Pretty much because, aside from being funny and intelligent, I have nothing going for me. And no one gives a crap about funny or intelligent. Well, except me, and we can be pretty sure I'm a fair distance from normal, conventional humanity.

Ah yes, that whole valentines thing. The day of the year on which all single people are supposed to feel bad.

Worse yet, it probably works on some level.

So, what are you doing to keep some semblance of sanity on this most cr*ppy of holidays? Are you barricading yourself away? Going out in desperation? Or are you just gonna open fire on a high street full of nauseating couples judging you for your apparent lack of a soul?

Me? Well, it's time for KILLATHON 2K12!!!

Yes, the yearly tradition in which I spend practically the entire hellish day indoors playing violent games of all kinds, going to the extent of tracking my virtual bodycount. Last year's high score was approx 9000 dead! Big thank you to the former citizens of megaton for helping so greatly in this objective! Let's hope for 10000 this year!

Nothing, I plan to die like ever year.

What the hell kind of a question is this? Are we going to suddenly die of lovelessness? Seriously...

*reads post*

Substance of sanity? IG-NOR-ING IT, hows that for an idea? No barracade, its a bloody Tuesday for petes sake. Desperation? I think not. That last comment is a bit ridiculous frankly, even compared to the other suggestions.

Ok, well if you have some compulsion to kill virtual people on that day, go ahead, there is that Mass Effect 3 demo coming out, my point in replying to this post is, if you have a bf/gf it might be nice to do something, maybe not, otherwise ignore the day, there's no need to be like 'ooo I'm still single waa' not that you're necessarily doing that but, any recognition, positive or negative is pointless unless you're involved, if not, forget about it.

 

[solemnwar]

The same thing i do every day.

Go to school, hang with friends, play some games, surf the internet. Yep.
It's pretty much how I spent every holiday.

 

[Jake0fTrades]

I have nothing to do!

If only there was a demo for a certain game coming out on that day! Y'know? One of those games that's the third installment in a trilogy of sci-fi RPG's? Oh, if only!

 

[Souplex]

Spoiler: I'm going to be spoken for this year by my wonderful lady. I wouldn't have it any other way.

Send help please.

I severely wish I could just ignore it, and I don't know about your area, but it's f***ing everywhere here. The only way to ignore it would've been to somehow stockpile food at some point between christmas and new year, and make a damn good excuse for missing every commitment I have, work-wise and socially, until the whole mess is over. Seriously, it's impossible.

 

[BathorysGraveland]

It's just an ordinary day for me, so nothing I wouldn't do normally - listen to music, play games, talk to people. Same 'ole, same 'ole.

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

Jokingly ask all of my friends to be my Valentine whores, parade around the school as a pimp. After school I'm probably going to play Skyrim.

 

[Sleepy Sol]

Video games are the best medicine.

...That's how that saying goes, right? Yeah, definitely.

Spoiler: yes I am completely fine leave me alone

 

[nathan-dts]

Not caring...
