Valentine’s Day: Heart Shaped Prostitution

Poor St. Valentine. The guy is martyred by Emperor Claudius for helping early Christians marry and how do we commerate his sacrifice? Cheap cards, flowers that die, and chocolate all in the hopes of getting some! Like most "Christian" holidays it has become about money...or sex...or sex and money. Ask the average schmuck (I admit I had to Google its origins) what Valentine's Day is about and they'll tell you it's about spending copious amount of money in the hopes of getting laid. Um... That's not romantic, that's prostitution. It's money for nookie. The only difference is that a prostitute doesn't need Halmark or Hershey to act as pimp.
