Valentine's Day is not about buying love, its about show love. One way you show love is buying gifts. Just about every holiday is commercialized, especially Christmas. Should we hate every holiday?

I smell a red herring*... while Bingo's sense of humor doesn't usually agree with (I can't really speak for his opinions), jumping to a large claim such as that is never a strong argumentative technique.

bkev,

I was really confused by your post and the usage of the term 'red herring'. Until I dismissed the term and read the rest of your post and understood it completely.

It would seem that your usage of the term 'red herring' was merely a... erm... a, uh... forgive me- red herring.

If this was your intention, may I be the first to commend you on a term well exemplified.
