Hello my dears!  It’s Valentine’s Day weekend, so this Weekend Challenge is all about Anti-Valentine's Day Quotes!  WOO HOO!! Just so you know, this isn’t a challenge that’s anti-romance or love, it’s just against the commercialization of the holiday.

Simply choose a number between 1 and 35 and I will give you an amusing anti-Valentine’s day quote that will hopefully inspire you. Please be as creative as you can--drabbles/fics can be as long as you want but at least 200 words and you can do any sort of art work the spirit moves you    Just post your work by Thursday night at 11:59pm EST, and you'll be golden.  Lastly, HAVE FUN!!!

I am not creative in any way with artwork, so if you want an icon, I will have to ask for help, but I can give you a drabble or add to my WIP.  And if you have any questions, please ask :):)
