As Google Docs told me this morning, it's Valentine's Day. Valentine's Day isn't a big deal, but it is a reminder that when I go to sleep at 9:30pm on a Saturday night–which only happened once, after a long day at a Russian bathhouse–no one really notices.
Last time I visited my grandmother in Florida, she asked me what my type was. Rich and tall is trite, right? I kid, I kid. I don't even have a type. So I decided to be proactive and look through men's magazines to figure out what I'm looking for. What I learned? Men are idiots. After the jump, my brief flings with Details, Maxim, Men's Vogue, GQ and Esquire.
Anyway, happy Valentine's Day!- raronauer
A VALENTINE'S DAY SURVEY WORTH TAKING In terms of masturbating, most people think of Valentine's Day as any other day. [Fitted Sweatpants]

Outside of Trisha and Ryan, no one takes Valentine's Day seriously. It's a Hallmark holiday, and everyone knows it. The thing is, it's a lot easier to enjoy V-Day ironically when someone sees you naked regularly. But to remind you that being single isn't so bad, we bring you "Douches In The Mist," real quotes from online dating profiles.
Also* from Jdate:
I certainly come with a lot of baggage.. but don't worry ladies.. its Louis Vuitton type baggage. I am looking for a dare to be great situation.

Google Docs is here to remind you:

Thanks, Google! Without you, we may have forgotten all about our fear of dying alone.

1st off!!!!!!!…Please don't bother using the "flirt" feature. Send me an original message. If your account doesn't have that capability…Get a real account!!!!!!! haha. I'm an outgoing, energetic, fun-loving guy. Comedy is HUGE with me, so come with a good sense of humor! I love sitting at a great restaurant, saturday afternoons washington square park, enjoying the nightlife NYC has to offer after a long week of work. People ask me how I have so much energy, my reply… how do you have so little??? I love to entertain but could very well just sit and watch a good movie. I love a good road trip to the beach, or up north for skiing…wow…thats totally not true…haha..i mean like the beach, and i like skiing, but i def don't do either of them often!!! lol. I'm ambitious and driven. I'm not afraid to speak in front of 200 strangers. I love to make people open up and get out of their shells. I can be predictable, yet extremely spontaneous. Bottom line…you've signed up for JDate, you've paid your dues, you've stepped up to the plate…now swing the bat, stop being so timid, and have fun! I consider myself pretty open minded.

Spotted any douches lately? Let us know.
Is there pressure of Valentine's Day keeping you down? Are you worried that you won't 'rise to the occasion' this February 14th? Have you been feeling insecure about your tiny, flaccid penis, and inability to sustain an erection?
If so, then tomorrow's a lucky day for you and your sex-starved wives/mistresses, because Pfizer is implementing a well-timed promotion for OTC Viagra!

LONDON (Reuters) - Men will be able to buy impotence treatment Viagra over the counter in Britain for the first time from Valentine's Day, chemist chain Alliance Boots said on Sunday.
Three Manchester Boots pharmacies will sell the prescription-only medication made by U.S. drugs group Pfizer in a pilot program from February 14.

Valentine's Day, for some, is the worst day ever. Because they are alone, depressed, upping their Xanax intakes, whatever. But, if you've recently been dumped, the New York Post reviews a book the will help land you in jail for stalking your ex.
According to "It's Not Me, It's You: The Ultimate Breakup Book," you don't have to cheer up, realize you're better off without him, get back on the dating scene, or any of those other single-gal cliches.
Instead, the authors encourage full-on wallowing: Take to your bed! Smoke a carton of cigarettes! Hone your cyber-stalking skills!
Cancer and restraining orders are not the way to go. Plus, we really hope you won't take advice from a newspaper that runs all their headlines in Elmer Fudd talk.
WALLOWING IN THE GLORY OF A BREAKUP THIS VALENTINE'S [Sara Stewart, New York Post]

Like most New Yorkers, you're probably spending your Valentine's Day tomorrow with a bottle of Korbel and The L Word reruns. Luckily, from the vast depths of flack-happy chatter that is our email inbox arrived a press release annoucing Nicole Richie's plans to run around New York pitching her weight (14 ounces, at last Caroline Rhea-hosted weigh in) in Diet Dr. Pepper.
Yes, the skeletite is marketing a product that has zero calories on a holiday that reminds even the casual Us Weekly reader of her breakup with DJ AM. Nevertheless, we're bound to relay any press release that labels Nicole Richie a "Hollywood sweetheart," even if this news broke last week.
The Diet Dr Pepper National Sampling Blitz is one of the largest beverage sampling initiatives ever, blanketing the country with enough free full-size cans, fountain drinks and other giveaways for every person in America. Diet Dr Pepper will be popping up in some expected and unexpected places.
So "unexpected," in fact, that they'll even tell you where these places are (and, drum roll, our news peg)!
11:30 am — Sampling Stop #1 at Astor Plaza (8th & Broadway)
12:45 pm — Sampling Stop #2 at 3rd & 6th Ave
Full press release, after the jump.
