And I would like to remind that "In Finland Valentine's Day is called Yst+ñv+ñnp+ñiv+ñ which translates into "Friend's day". As the name indicates, this day is more about remembering all your friends, not only your loved ones." source
So, Happy Valentine's Day EVEryone

And in Denmark it's called Valentines Day, which roughly translates into "We're not selling enough flowers and chocolate, let's import yet another commercialized american holiday to fix that" |

St Valentine, the story is that he went around putting money and gifts into the stockings of prostitutes or something right? Thats pretty romantic yeah? Does that mean by buying my wife a gift on Valentines day I am calling her a whoore? Trust me, I almost know what I'm doing. |

Some women actually like that. Who knows, you might kick your relationship to a whole new level by telling her what a dirty little s|ut she is (omg I can't believe s|ut is word filtered! Lame CCP, lame). Oh and by the way I know a good divorce attorney... in case your wife has no sense of humor. |

Even if it translated to "I don't understand how forum categories work" it still wouldn't belong in GD.

Not true, Finns are drunk a lot, they have lots of friends as a result. Hence if you blow a .20 BAL its called "FInnish Cruising Altitude." 'perfer et obdura; dolor hic tibi proderit olim'
Be patient and tough; some day this pain will be useful to you. |

I don't know what you people are talking about because we don't celebrate this day in Iceland.
We do have old and traditional husband's day and wife's day.. it's on two separate days though. I think wife's day is next Sunday!
Happy friends day to all my spacebros though - hope you enjoy it CCP Punkturis | EVE UI Developer | @katrinat |

Pish... I see your $80 bottle of wine and raise you a $60 handle of fine aged rum. I too will drink her til she dies... but boy will she put up a fight! I like 'em feisty and potentially lethal! "Just because I seem like an idiot, doesn't mean I am one." ~Unknown |

I celebrated Valentine's Day buy buying and eating chocolates with my wife, eating spaghetti that her parents made for us, and losing a basilisk and getting podded, not necessarily in that order. |

Valentine's Day had a tangible effect on my EVE gameplay yesterday.
I was baking a cake all last night as a surprise for the Better Half and playing some EVE at the same time because, well, there was time for that, I don't know how to make cakes and terrible at doing it efficiently. Hour four of working on the thing, it's already really late, just took the last cake layer out of the oven, waiting for it to cool, sit down to finish flying to my destination, but so tired... put my head down on the desk... 30 minutes later I wake up and realize I'm AFK at a gate in low sec, the boundary between low and high, because apparently my last awake action was hitting "insta-jump" on the target gate from the safespot I was chilling in, but the ship didn't jump due to being cloaked (you know how it goes with some ships and gates...). I was still cloaked 2083m away from the gate, and there was someone actually camping it even, didn't even know I was there. I almost pooped my pants when I saw this, and then laughed really hard.
Happy Valentine's Day / Hyv+ñ+ñ Yst+ñv+ñnp+ñiv+ñ+ñ (probably didn't get the case right, Finnish classes were a while ago) / Chocolate Day / etc.! |

Don't try to understand it, it's a corporate America thing...
Kinda like how you Icelanders have the exploding mountain and stopping all European air travel thing...
