As you’re all well aware, Valentine’s Day is on Tuesday. If you weren’t aware, don’t panic: We’ve got some helpful tips for how to make the day a memorable experience, regardless of your relationship status. For instance! If you’ve got a significant other, head down to the grocery store and buy small square pretzels, Hershey’s Hugs and Valentine’s Day-themed M&M’s. Stack the Hugs on top of the pretzels and the M&M’s on top of the Hugs, and then place the stacks into an oven set to low heat until the M&M’s melt into the tops of the Hugs. Refrigerate over night, and by morning you’ll have a delicious homemade treat for your SO.

If you’re single, go ahead buy the pretzels, Hugs and M&M’s, but don’t bother with any of the other steps. After all, who are you trying to impress? Shove modest handfuls of all three ingredients into your face until the pain in your heart is masked by a sugary layer of processed regret. Alternatively, you can check out our favorite webcomics from this week and vote for your favorites after the break.
