Every year on February 14, across the United States and in other places around the world, candy, flowers and gifts are exchanged between loved ones, all in the name of St. Valentine. But who is this saint, and where did this day, or more commonly known as Valentines Day come from?

According to one legend, an imprisoned Valentine actually sent the first "valentine" greeting himself after he fell in love with a young girl-possibly his jailor's daughter-who visited him during his confinement. Their love so beautiful, yet so treacherous is admired by many today. Before his death, it is alleged that Valentine wrote her a letter signed "From your Valentine," an expression that is still in used today. Although the truth behind the Valentine legends is murky, the stories all emphasize his appeal as a sympathetic, hero and-most importantly-romantic figure that is essentially the symbol for the day of love.

Approximately 150 million Valentine's Day cards are exchanged annually, making Valentine's Day the second most popular card-sending holiday after Christmas!

Valentines Day greetings were popular as far back as the Middle Ages, though written Valentine's didn't begin to appear until after 1400. The oldest known valentine still in existence today was a poem written in 1415by Charles, Duke of Orleans, to his wife while he was imprisoned in the Tower of London following his capture at the Battle of Agincourt. The greeting is now part of the manuscript collection of the British Library in London, England.

Now, as we unwind the history of Valentines Day, the history of seven elements in which a light ray named Valentines Day is distributed into its seven major components such as Chocolate Day, Propose Day, Hug Day, Teddy Day, Rose Day, Promise Day and Kiss day, still remains deep buried in the ground.

The day of love for many is the day love is confessed, for some its the day of adventure- the day to accept ones love. It may be the day to adore friendships, to indulge in chocolates or sneeze because of the endless rows of red roses. And for some...its the day were we merely watch the undeniably fantastic Ashton Kutcher movie.

Whatever your activities, we, The Crazy Creatives, would like to wish you a fabulous and romantic Valentines Day!

We think that love is in the air today and so the air reeks. ☺️

Thereby, the Crazy Creatives felt that a fresh, juicy and vastly different perspective is needed to be shared on this day of uh, national and international importance.

1. It stinks because those of us who have no partner and no possibility of a partner or both are afraid to step outside of our houses today. 😳

2. The smell is incapacitating for a few gallant people who not only got those fresh flowers they took for bae stuffed in their behinds but also got beaten up by their Mommies and Daddies for their jurrat and behudgi. 🥺

3. The intensity of the stench is experienced most by single people, but as though the fear of going out wasn't enough, some of them are looking at their faces in the mirror and are unable to live with it all of a sudden, as we speak. 🐷

4. The holes in X's husband's pocket and Y's girlfriend's Prada smell of acid, like the money just turned to goo in there. Wait, sorry, they gave it up for that cringe on their partners' faces. 🤔

5. It smells so bad that lots of people cannot stand it anymore, so they go out despite the fear and pretend to be in love. Then, the one insect crawls up their nose from the rose they were going to give to their makeshift bae. Yes, that's been known to happen. They get infested, there's surgery, the likes.

6. What if we told you some of us are in real, actual love, all the freaking time? And that it's so unrequited even Yash Chopra couldn't have found a way to make things right for us? You know what we're doing tonight? Thanks to the smelly atmosphere about us, we are keeping our noses pinched tonight and breathing through our mouths. Everything hurts, thank you so much. 😭

7. Valentine's Day is basically some Greek guy's birthday, dudes. And yes, there are people currently in existence who are so worked up about their dateless-ness that by the morning of 15 February, they will have learned everything there is to know about Saint Valentine. And you would still not be able to tell vowels and consonants apart. 🤓

8. The smell is unbearable for people who are sworn enemies of heart-shaped balloons and of the fact that some people possess the innate quality of being happy and spreading cheer. No one other than that could have thought of doing this section, make a note of that. 🤡

9. No hard feelings, though. Enjoy, if you have the louu/money/vehicle/public park to. 😈

10. I sure as hell can't because not only the grapes but the entire fruit kingdom is particularly sour here. 😵😵😵
