The Monday List

Ten Things That Really, Really Bore Us About Valentine's Day

Restaurants producing 'couples' menus' that are twice as expensive and half as interesting as their regular meals
Lingerie gift guides featuring nothing but hideously impractical thongs and basques
Women ostentatiously carrying huge bunches of flowers on public transport
The idea that anyone would ever use a heart-shaped egg ring
Padded cards the size of small bath towels
Red roses that last about half an hour before the petals start drooping
Suggestive cards from people you don't know
Suggestive cards from people you do know
Couples claiming they don't celebrate Valentine's Day because they demonstrate their love every day of the year
Lists like this written by curmudgeons who only do it because they know they won't be getting any cards...
