like thanksgiving for example... always a thursday... that would make a lot more sense

Because Saint Valentine just didn’t die on any day thats convenient for you people.

@MorbidCynic is there really a a historical dare for this ? i mean xmas is a made up date too etc

Saint Valentine was a real priest in Rome. There is historical evidence of his existence. He died by decapitation in year 273. @Milkshake

@MorbidCynic yeah... but is the day confirmed too ?

Yes, as per all the sources I seen, he died February 14th, 273. 🤷‍♀️ No one has proven otherwise @Milkshake

@MorbidCynic my son was just talking about this earlier this evening, LoL. I never knew the history behind Valentine's Day. Or about St. Valentine.

@MorbidCynic ok cool, well if we fuck up his memory with all this sex and choclate anyway i think he wouldnt mind if we did so on a weekend

Well personally I spend the day commemorating my favorite saint 🤷‍♀️ The day honoring him was always meant to be about courtly love. @Milkshake
