today in the car i was listening to the radio and i heard the following ad:

it made me sad to hear that. people are in such a hurry to get to something that they miss what is going on now. valentines day is a stupid day to begin with, but if you are going to buy into a gift as expressing your feelings for another person, then you could at least spend a little time on it. what else is time good for? i would rather have somebody give me a bag of shit they had spent all day in a field collecting than something they went to Joe's Valentine SuperStore and picked up in five minutes - at least it would mean something.
