Almost every mail received today (announcements, updates, even spam): listen to our radio station because is VD; buy this because etc.
I wonder if Windows Updates will install a valetine.s.day.interop.dll, or congratulate with a system modal dialog, or something.
Today I'm also going to dentist in the evening; if one more human being will stop me with something like this, it will be something like Protoss praetor Fenix assaulting the Zerg cerebrates.

Hey, I know this number you should call for great astrology advice, especially on such a special day as today 
(though I have a sneaking suspicion everyone knows it by now...)

Whenever I want to Record something on the Sky+ I always say I'm going to 'Tape' that, much to the amusement of my Missus and Kids. Am I the only one that still says this?
It got me thinking of other terminology that still remains long after the technology has ceased to exist.
I could only come up with 'pull the chain' when going to the lavatory, which is still used despite most toilets no longer have a chain. Others are 'drive' which is used for Cars despite originally referring to driving a horse. Obviously 'Sail' is still used when pertaining to motor driven boats.
Are there any other terms that have outlived the technology they were first used for?

I miss the floppy disk, all those years of 3 1/2 inch floppy disks that were anything but floppy
I know of people who refer to usb drives as floppies

Meh! The 3.5 was a stiffy, you needed 5.25 or 8 for floppy! And this[^] was the dogs!

How about a visual one? Most applications show a floppy disk icon for the "save" operation.

I kept wondering how Pi Day could be un-KSS. Then I Googled.  Well, there's always something weird out there you haven't heard of yet.

Interestingly, there is some countries that already use March 14th as a response to Valentine's Day. They switched the gender roles, though.[^]
What is this talk of release? I do not release software. My software escapes leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.

Ooh, and the chocolates.. Yum, Yum! 
Don't mind those people who say you're not HOT. At least you know you're COOL.
