	4:23pm JDub: Speaking of Harold & Maude, check out this hilarious reddit review: Disappointed by "Harold and Maude" My husband and I jus watched Harold and Maude. A family member with good tastes recommended it to us, and it's generally highly reviewed. Much to our disappointment, we hated it. Maybe it was because we went into it thinking it would be a comedy, maybe it's because I'm pregnant with our first son and I watched the whole movie thinking "what if our son turns out like Harold?", maybe it's because we (I anyway) have a low threshold for annoyance with fictional characters moping. Anyway, it felt like watching someone retch for and hour and a half. My husband says it's his least favorite movie ever.

	♥ 5:41pm ike̶̬̕: Went for a walk and saw way too many people carrying around their freakin' flowers and cards and chocolates they'd given or received, bleh. Sigh! So I bought myself some Sarelle Turkish chocolate bars, LOL.
	5:42pm Andres: Johnny Jewel making presence felt again!
	5:44pm Adi From Sheffield: Thank you Mona 👍
	5:45pm traven: ↳ ike̶̬̕ @5:41 It's true some folks don't put any stock in the holiday. However, please don't deny them the license to celebrate it in their own way. Enjoy the chocolate, partner.
	♥ 5:47pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ ike̶̬̕ @5:41 Half price chocolates in the stores tomorrow! (Or in the dumpsters according to the "Buy Now!" documentary.)
	5:48pm Andres: ↳ Song: "Blind (Frankie Knuckles Dub)" by "Hercules & Love... Crank it!!! 🔥🔥🔥
	5:50pm Midge: Thank you Mona!💕
	♥ 5:50pm Handy Haversack: ↳ ike̶̬̕ @5:41 I saw the same -- and don't really remember ever seeing that before. Was there some sort of social media thing that suddenly made V Day a bigger deal? I just always thought it was for kids and CVS.
	♥ 5:51pm ike̶̬̕: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @5:47 We lactose-intolerant folks can't trust 99% of that shit that comes in the heart-shaped boxes! It's packed to the gills with cheap whey and cow-squirt powder. Blecccch. I have to search far and wide to find that one inexpensive crunchy chocolate bar with no milk in it, imported all the way from Turkey.
	🥀 ♥ 5:52pm chris in the redwoods: thanks, Mona! have a great lovers day and weekend, all!
	♥ 5:53pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Mona! More fantabulosity from its chief purveyor!

	5:54pm Juli P: The feeling when you realize you missed Mona lol But I just got home so I have an excuse lol
	♥ 5:55pm ike̶̬̕: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:50 No idea! Perhaps CVS/Walgreens are operated by competing alien conquerors whose plan to fully brainwash our society is nearly complete. It would explain a few things.
	5:55pm Andres: Thanks, Mona! Loved the vibe!
	5:55pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ ike̶̬̕ @5:41 I went and took my Mum some flowers.
	♥ 5:55pm Crafty: Thank you❤

	4:22pm vrykoluka: I'm not wrong; A scene from Harold & Maude is in Mona's GIF, but the song was also in the more recent Holdovers.
	4:23pm JDub: Speaking of Harold & Maude, check out this hilarious reddit review: Disappointed by "Harold and Maude" My husband and I jus watched Harold and Maude. A family member with good tastes recommended it to us, and it's generally highly reviewed. Much to our disappointment, we hated it. Maybe it was because we went into it thinking it would be a comedy, maybe it's because I'm pregnant with our first son and I watched the whole movie thinking "what if our son turns out like Harold?", maybe it's because we (I anyway) have a low threshold for annoyance with fictional characters moping. Anyway, it felt like watching someone retch for and hour and a half. My husband says it's his least favorite movie ever.

	4:30pm northguineahills: ↳ Karl @4:28 general strike is the name of your next cocktail...
	♥ 4:31pm Karl: Maybe you can help me figure out what cocktail to make. Looking around, I have burnt sugar simple syrup, and no desire to deal with the world on its own terms.
	♥ 4:31pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Karl @4:31 Absinthe would seem to be indicated.
	4:31pm JDub: Cheers to whoever made the reco a while back for bourbon and Fever Tree
	♥ 4:32pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Karl @4:31 You need a gin martini. Time to fall back on bedrock principles.
	4:32pm Andres: Remember when a few years ago a new Chromatics song suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Yay! And then shortly thereafter they called it quits. Ugh.
	4:32pm northguineahills: ↳ Karl @4:31 get a bathroom-sized garbage can, mix all of the booze, substances, and random ingredients that might taste ok together, and then imbibe (just don't add toilet duck)
	♥ 4:32pm newton: ↳ Hughie Considine @4:31 isnt it always? Sazerac!
	♥ 4:33pm Karl: ↳ northguineahills @4:32 I see you're a college man
