This pessimistic thought and others can be found as close as the Internet if you're feeling rather blue instead of pink this week.
For the really bitter, there are some pretty tart e-cards, such as Yahoo's anti-love note that shows a woman defending herself against cupid's arrows with a shield, or one on hugkiss.com, which features a picture of a bouquet of dead roses, with the poetic words: "Roses are red/Dead roses are black/Just want you to know/You'll never get me back."

It irreverently pokes fun at the 1950s-era housewife. It has nostalgic illustrations. And it's darn funny in a PG-13 kind of way.
It has links to "Ask Queenie" (advice for the lovelorn, the sloppy and the dim) as well as a tongue-in-cheek "meals men like" and a Highlights-styled game matching people with their dogs and/or tattoos.
