@ChippySuave I think about that every Valentines Day. I never got any, it was brutal.
@misslovelymess We also had green carnations for St. Patrick's Day. I didn't get any either.
@ChippySuave Thank god we didn't. That's my favorite holiday, and green carnations might have ruined it for life. I have a general disdain for Valentines Day and I blame the carnations.
@ChippySuave I grew up in a country where Valentine's Day wasn't a thing, so I missed all that.

No lovin’ down under?
@Jeber @ChippySuave We hadn't been colonized by Hallmark and Big Flower in those days.
@Jeber @ChippySuave Also, our public radio stations were funded by taxpayer dollars, so there were no multi-week fund drives leading up to Valentine's Day.

Ah well, welcome to the planet Profit.
@ChippySuave this, ugh. Yes I remember.
