  • I'm just going to have a party with all my single fat friends (I'm kinda the only good looking one besides one other girl) because I just broke up with my bf and yeah....

  • If I end up alone for another Valentine's Day, I'm just going to bury myself into my work.

  • I've always been alone on valentines day and I really didn't till today... Everybody had a couple and everybody was all mooshie mooshie and the whole time I was sitting in a corner doing nothing.. FOREVER ALONE.

  • The eyes on this girl looks so damn insane.

  • Okay. Her holding the papers on fire really creeps me out. She almost looks insane.

  • I've been alone for the past 4 1/2 years. I've spent the past 4 Valentine's Days alone and I'm on my way to my 5th. I dread Valentine's Day because I have no beautiful woman to spend it with. That's what bugs me. I hate feeling this way. I don't like being alone. I don't like being without a girlfriend. But it's not easy going out there and trying to find one and I don't know what to do anymore. I've been out of the dating game so long, I don't know what to do anymore. It hurts.

  • @agentbl aww, that's so sad. Where are you from?

  • @MaryTheresa1986 I'm from New York City and it's difficult meeting women here. Why do you ask?

  • Yeah. Send cookies to all your friends on Valentine's day. Cuase baking is cool.

    I think this is why I don't even feel bad about spending waaaay to many hours watching bleach. Its all about friendship and loyalty and duty. Atributes that are seriously undervalued in todays society.

    Also I am so thankfull that I am no longer a teenager. This stuff seems much less important in your 20's than it did in your teens. At least to me it does.

  • Your right

  • but dont make your heart too hard..

  • Cool vid.

  • so true

  • You talk really fast x.x

  • You sound like your trying to convince yourself!

  • @armanifan10101 I am.

  • O_O did... you just burn a book? I'm very disappointed. I thought you were a better person than that.

  • try having your birthday on valentine's day! what a pain! btw, where does everyone find out about these collab projects?

  • You're awesome! (Note the correct spelling of "you're"). Your views on media influences on the subconscious attitude of woman toward romance are fabulous. Thank you so much for sharing your profound insights. I find them fascinating.

  • You are seriously, like my idol! :) SUBSCRIBED!! :)

  • Yes - it's true - Valentine's Day is an evil plot conceived by a huge eastern syndicate to pressure us to hook up in order to pick our pockets once a year!

    Just kidding......

    Alone on Valentine's Day?

    "Who cares, I never get lonesome cuz I treasure my own company!" - Mac Davis

  • This video is made of awesome.

  • Welcome to my subscribe list :) Aka the list of all thing awesome !!!

  • LOL!

  • Did you just burn a book? *gasp*

  • Some comments are whack! Although I am happily married, I agree it is far better to hang out with loved friends and family than it is to sit at your own pity party. I also liked your display of ridding things which plant thoughts into your head. :-)

  • Shut up, you fat plumber.

  • so true. i hope you did'nt burn youself :)

  • I can eh-understand everthing she eh-says perfectly. That's "fast talk" and can be eh-learnt in eh- school. ke no?

    I just wish she'd share her teleportation secrets.

  • My friend recently came up with a new name for valentines day:

    Single Awareness Day!

  • umm that's not new...

  • Your message is good, but the speed at which you push words past your lips is a bit confusing. I had to restart the video a few times to hear all the words. Love your enthusiasm though.

  • I'm grateful to have great pals on the 14th of Feb, we have fun without dramas, no body is guilt tripping me for hanging out with all of them.

    So as far as I'm concerned for me, it's

    Happy Pal o' mine Day!

  • Yeah... okay, you have a decent point in a way, but what about those of us who have people in our life, but all those people are coupled up so you end up being a third wheel no matter what? Hm? What about us?

  • Learn to like tricycles?

  • Dr.Thirdwheel: Or, how I learned to stop wallowing in self pity and love the tricycle.

  • Word, SisterSalad.

  • Well said. I can't believe you fit all that into 34 seconds. Good job! DFTBA!

  • You have got a point there! ^_^

    But yeah

    I don't celebrate it this year.

    I just don't feel like it -___-

  • oh and the twilight thing was sheer genius

  • Your right and you have made me feel better about Valentine's day, thank you.

  • Good point, but wallowing in self pity is what I do for fun on Valentines Day. I can be completely cynical and no one can stop me!

  • Very true. I'm glad other people in the world realize this.

  • This astonishing bit of common sense is elegant in its simplicity, and simply underscores why I've actually felt the need to pick up a Youtube account-- strictly so I could subscribe to the Salad.

    The Saladeers rock.

  • If Sarah Chalke and the Micromachines guy had sex, they'd give birth to you.

    Seriously. I love yer videos, but I had to watch that four times to get everything. It's like yer being paid by the word.

    - trevor.

  • Thanks for the reminder regarding this very touchy subject! Look at this,.. My comment iz just altle bit whack! Keep doin what you are doing and Happy Valentine's Day Sister!

  • Aha (:

    Love the disclaimer.

  • To me it's much more meaningful if I've got someone whom i care about in that way with me. But, I'm am also an idiot so...

  • You could do that or maybe we can meet and just make out.

  • Hey, Liz:

    You're totally right! Happy Valentine's Day!

  • Perhaps John Locke will be reincarnated as the Fonz and he will get in a boat with the other returning castaways (including the Harlem Globetrotters) and they will use the boat to jump that large white shark that has been recently terrorizing the lagoon. LD :-)

  • PS--Did you notice in Lost last night that the carpet cleaning van that Ben was driving was named for "Canton Rainier" which is an anagram for "reincarnation." So far no one has really been reincarnated yet, though Jack's father is seemingly back from the dead.

  • This video prompted me to get my Valentine's Day Cards out to my two lovely daughters so they remember they are loved, though I know they know they are. Thanks for the reminder. LD :-)

  • amen.

  • My school does this thing where we can send roses to each other, and at first I was really upset with the idea because there was no one to send me roses and no one for me to send roses to... and then I remembered that I have friends, and at least three of them are sending me roses and I sent out four myself to me friends. Friends make Valentine's day, not the "love of your life"

    - Cait of 5aw.

  • OK, that's it. I'm smitten. Will you marry me?

  • Liz, you are so awesome and funny (and cute)

    Sistersalad is not alone. you got 6,951 valentines this year. If I was single I would be your valentine.

    Peace out, We'll E'Ya later.

  • This is a very good video, me and a few friends are going to see a movie.

    Sall fun now :D

  • Guess who loves you!?!?!?!? Invisisis and I sent you a box full of fun and yummy items. Some are fun and some are yummy, but then again isn't yummy always fun? I say do something for or with anyone you love. Or do something for someone who deserves to be loved. Doing some randomly nice things on V-Day would make it pretty rewarding. One year Invisisis and her Brownie troop made Valentines and brought Valentines and candy to people at a nursing home. The residents got a big kick out of it!

  • that's great lol

  • I would agree, for the most part.

    Implanting a idea such as Valentines day is the work of Hallmark. But I think it is also good to be able to set out one day a year to devote ourselfs to the closet of close loved ones. This doesn't mean one of romanticism, as it can be anyone you feel close too.

    Thanks for your short vlurbish piece of though ^_^

    -Despondent Thespian.

    P.S What classes/ Tips/ Advice would you give to one who wants to start vlog ^_^

  • Just kiddint but heyy i told mahh freind thatt.!

  • I have a magazine that sent out 51 ways it's okay to be single.

  • lol so true!!

  • I want to date all your personalitys, really!

  • Thanks for reminding me. ..

  • i can hack any email address.just email md, i would help you...

  • fire fire fire :P

    I'd agree with you. And Ialso think that many holidays have become SO commercialized that the only reason they really exist is for Hallmark or 1800-flowers to make money. Well, at least it feels that way sometimes.

    If you could make you own Nerdfighteria holiday what would it be?

  • Hey, I've got an idea

    Lets throw a party on the Fail Boat!

  • aww that was nice :D

  • you hair looks really nice in this video :)

  • [pandering] Who needs love when we've got sister salad videos? [/pandering]

  • Very true, thank you for reminding me of this fact.

  • I love this video, I've shown it to almost all of my fellow gay male friends (I am one, too!) who are "single" and unhappy about it.

    I'm gonna link to it from my facebook page, too. :D

    Lizz, you have great dressing!

  • Haha pretty funny, the longer one should be interesting. By the way, your point is quite correct, although I do find it odd that so many still don't just 'get it' lol.

  • Two weeks and then all we get is a 30 second video? Soy muy triste:(

    But that's good advice anyways! Time to go hunt down all my single friends!

  • Another (longer) video coming soon--see "More Info"! :-)

  • Sweet action!

  • hehe

  • Gah I love these two sister's!! They take a look at the big picture !! And make it easier for people to understand in a comedy perspective ! Smart Chicks rock!-Caiti

  • so true

  • that made me happy :D

  • Pyromaniac much?

    Have I heard this before? Hmm... oh yeah, the other six minute video on this same subject.

    You do have nice teeth though.

  • You mean "the six minute other video", because this one is definitely not 6 minutes.

    And it's a good concept to express- so having it in two videos, especially when they're referring to different aspects of life, is perfectly ohkay.

  • lmao at the burning scene

  • Word!

  • wow that is so true! also lizz, i think you look totally insane when you set that stuff on fire! totally pyro! If thats how you spell it.... =)

  • hmmm things to do on valentines day...... Well. I think this year I will spoil myself and work on my photography. Followed by cooking some dinner and maybe going to a gallery opening. Yes I know I'm too good to myself. But I have realized that after many years. I love me. I've always been there for me. I will always be there for me. *wow this sounds conceited* but oh well. Have a happy made up holiday with cherubs and arrows everyone!!!!

  • As a married woman, valentine's day is so overrated! it's jsut another excuse women have to make men feel guilty for being who they are the other 364 days of the year. Valentine's day is not romantic, because what's romantic about getting flowers or candy only because your significant other feels he has too? NOTHING!

  • Amen

  • Thanks for making Single Awareness Day make it seem not so single! hahaha

  • liz you totally rock!

  • Ok, to provide the ultimate cliche, I have a $4000 ring to present to my girl Saturday night. Wish me luck! PS....If I am not alone, why do I doubt that the guys on my company softball team will even think of me Saturday?

  • Congrats and good luck!

    Although I think you should also call some of the guys on your softball team Saturday... just to let them know you're thinking of them. Be the change you wanna see. :-)

  • man she talks so fast i cant even do that!

  • I'm happily married and I could care less about Valentines Day.. It is a cute time to go shopping at Victoria's Secret though... And I just love my husband what ever day it is. He's the best =)

  • You're reeaally pretty. =] I'm jealous. =[

    Lol.

    But I wish I had someone to spend it with. I'm alone..

  • I wish I had a girlfriend.

  • it got a little scary when you brought the flames

  • ummm...everyones busy with their boy/girlfriends lol.

    I kid i kid

  • Was that a book you were burning...? That would make me sad. - Jess

  • Not if you knew what sort of book it was... Allow me to quote the back cover:

    "Life begins at 16... Driving. Dating. A real social life. Trent and Laurie are THE mega-popular couple. So Trent goes along for the ride when Laurie throws a Texas-style Sweet Sixteen as a cruel joke on his tutor, Tina. What he doesn't plan on is falling in love with their target..."

    That is because Trent hasn't ever read any OTHER teen romance novels.

    :-)

  • Well it's still someone else's work of art (or poor attempt in this case) and I don't believe the author would especially appreciate it.

    I'm sorry, I understand your issue with a book that sounds so...well...special ^^...but I hate to see other peoples' work destroyed in such a manner...or I would have burned the Twilight books by now. I just find it disrespectful...I can't even bring myself to burn my own poor writings lol

  • Its the principal of the thing! We must safe guard ideas even when they're crappy because if we select certain ideas that are acceptable and hang the rest, we don't have room to grow!

  • Herein Lizz makes a clip for a collab video...

  • nice suggestion =)

  • Valentine's Day is Corporate American Bullshit. Ja. But tongue kissing on this day is nice.

    xo- Astrid

  • I disagree. I think that you are very, very beautiful.

  • Are you kidding me? She's really pretty! I mean, seriously, take a look at her spouky hiar.

    And remember, "Sometimes 'your' is possessive, but other times in means 'you are'. Put apostrophes where you need 'em, and otherwise just delete 'em!" :-)

  • NICE FIRE!!! ...but you need to be dancing around an obelisk while Strauss is playing.

    You know...I have tried starting digital fire with a magnifying glass and a picture of a sunrise, but in case you're wondering, it doesn't work.

    But...I've tried to move on and not let my world collapse.

    Ulamz mussst hav fiiiier...

    1981 called - they want their movie back. :-D

    There should be an Internet test - who do you like better: Snow Miser or Heat Miser?

  • u seem smart

  • keyword:seem

  • I love you! Um... on 34 seconds? I need more! Haha! You're right. That actually made me feel better. Oh, and don't listen to evilnigg or who ever said you are ugly. You're not at all! You're gorgeous!

  • you know fuzzball your right she is butiful. oh and i like your name. fuzzball. i just love it

  • Thanks! I like you're name too. Linkfann. Are you a fan of links or...?

  • I actually feel more relieved after reading this.

  • Okay, I freaking love you girls. And you looked scary insane when you burned that book. I sort of loved it! Keep on rocking!

  • no crouton alert? and dude man under me, evilnigg, stfu and grow up.

  • WHERE IS THE INTRO?!

  • This is awesome! I totally agree.

  • 34 seconds? I feel cheated. I want my Liz fix!

  • This makes me feel better! Thanks!

  • Will you be my valentine?

  • We're sorry, this video is no longer available.

  • very true.

  • I think this is great, Thanks.....

  • I love you! Now, I think I'm gonna hang out with MYSELF on Valentines eve instead of alone ;)

  • you are so smart. will you share your brain with me?

  • well valentine day is the day to spend with the one you love so it is for boyfiends and girlfriends

  • You don't love any of your family members or friends?

  • Well of course I have friends and family I love but when you go to the store all the valentine stuff says things like be min and so when I see that I think of my boyfriend not my best friend or brother

  • Nice vid!

  • I would be alone..if it weren't for those damn ninjas.

  • hahaha the is frecken Hilarious.

  • Oh, They never leave you alone, do they?

  • They're everywhere. Under your pillow where the tooth fairy might leave some money- nope ninjas.

  • Yay :)

  • Hear hear.

  • your right! thanks for the uplift!!

  • I do think most people are looking to meet this magical person that turns their heart to goo and changes their life. That's clearly not what happens most of the time and is a fantastical way to view the complexity of human relationships.

    But that doesn't mean that there ISN'T something special about sharing your love with another person. I think there is. Doesn't mean you should or have to have it! or it will make you happy and complete your life.

  • Still the cutest of the three sisters. Kisses and hugs, happy valentines

  • I think people don't necessarily feel alone because they think being romantically involved with someone is the ONLY type of meaningful relationship but because it can fulfil you in a different way then say hanging out with family (who have to love you but don't always like you) or friends (who will usually ditch on you if they found a date for Valentines) or even the robots who raised you in your testtube!

  • like the burning paper. hope no cool ppl got burnt while fliming.

  • Yeah I definitely agree! That's what I keep telling all my friends who feel so "alone." Usually it goes like this:

    Me: Hey, what am I? Don't you love me?

    Them: Ummm... no, you're the girl who creeped upon me on Facebook.

    Me: Well, Happy Valentine's day jerk!

    And then I typically proceed to murder them.

  • Good one! Wake up all those moppy people with a gentle reality slap in the face.

  • Thank you darling!

  • You talk fast, but make a very good point!

  • I like this post! Very very true!

  • Even the best romantic relationships based on mutual attraction are usually biologically programmed to last only about three years for reproduction purposes.

  • Well said. I agree.

    Liz. I will be done with midterms by Friday as well. Maybe we could do something next week? We should definitely do coffee or something!

  • Yes!

  • Amen, sister. Which is heartfelt, my staunch atheism notwithstanding.

  • <3 <3 <3 (they told me one heart was too short for a comment)

  • Sorry I didn't get to put this on my collab! I LOVE YOU!

  • So the fire seemed close to your hand and made me a bit nervous. I would also like to compare this video to a "quick fix" for all those addicted to Sister Salad. Good/Strong thoughts in the video.

  • Here here! Short and sweet!

  • ...wow... depressing... :)

  • Brillant, totally love it.

  • Someone, somewhere, is ritually burning one of my books.

    And that's okay.

    Brilliant video. -John

  • Burn all you want, we'll write more.

    Ha!

  • Thanks! Were there any mass bonfires of Looking for Alaska amidst the various controversies? Because if the display on book censorship I once saw at my local public library is any indication, getting on the list of authors whose books have at one point been tossed onto the pyre actually aligns you with some pretty cool people.

    This was my first foray into book-burning, and I must say it was a far more scary and perilous process than I had anticipated: turns out, those things are made of paper!

  • And paper burns, but scissors and rock do not.

  • Aw, this was sweet. Valentines day does suck anyway, though.

  • Its getting harder and harder to resist the temptation to leave incoherent fanboy comments with every sistersalad video.

    My personal suggestion, which Ido myself, is to participate and enjoy it - you have people, some of these people are not romantically involved and may not get any gifts. So give them gifts!

  • yeah i might have agreed with you in years past but now i'm in LOVE which makes the rest of you who arent L-O-S-E-R-S!

  • Great video!!

  • This actually reminds me of the critique on the Twilight books wherein you pointed out that the female character seems to do nothing but pine when separated from her love.

    I remember when my first relationship ended, I felt like I just had to get into a new one or else I'd continue to feel incomplete. It took time and some wisdom from close friends to make me realize the foolishness of that.

    Happiness with yourself first will equal happiness with someone else (if you so choose) later.

  • The maniacal grinning and laughing during the flaming destruction is especially full of win. The video makes a strong point...it's hard to convince oneself of it sometimes, but eventually we all come to realize this particular epiphany.

    In other words...WOOT! :)

  • excellent video Liz... and it was very nice to meet you this past weekend and share some of the WORST Subway I've ever eaten! haha. :) I for some reason had to re-subscribe to your channel. All good now! :)

  • :-) It was great to meet you too!  Sorry about the sandwich... At least it did provide the materials for a particularly hilarious contribution to Monica's journal...

  • this harkens back to the twilight video post she did a while back.

  • But, if you WERE raised by robots in an airlock on the moon....

  • like who?

  • Thanks Liz, i think? :D

  • wow, you talk so fast and you seem to like the fire way to much. as always your very beautiful and kind.

  • So true. The aloneness we feel cannot be cured by a having a man either. I have an incredible husband , two fabulous children, 3 amazing sister (2 brothers who aren't half bad), my mother and father and a few great friends but when I listen to the negative tapes that play in my head and pity myself, I do feel alone. And you're right it is simply not true. I need to remember all that I do have instead of focusing on what I don't. THANKS!!!!!!

  • cutie you need a man in your life.

  • Good advice! Love doesn't have to be romantic.

    -Lisa

  • i agree. v day is really just a way to make us spend money if you want to have a romantic evening it shouldnt have to be in feb. in my opinion bs holidays should be removed from the calender when the economy is bad!

    i love you guys your vids are edited great and always true. you sisters of salad have a great view on life much like my own.

    will you be my valentine?
