loss-- an evening of exquisite misery

Sevgililer Günü'nde ne yapmalıyız sorusuna cevap ararken oldukça ilginç bir event çıktı karşıma: Loss Valentines Day Ball.

"For an evening of painful regret and melancholy akin to that only felt by Morrissey before, the Loss Valentines Day ball presents a night of Exquisite Misery where sadness, absence and crying are the themes of the evening.

With a seminar on how to deal with a broken heart by The Independent's Agony Aunt Virginia Ironside, and many other depressing and miserable acts on show, visitors to the Loss Valentines Day Ball will be asking themselves if it's all really worth it by the end of the night.

With a strict dress code of decaying beauty, perhaps you might like to take some inspiration from Miss Haversham and come wearing a moth eaten, raggedy old wedding dress. Dead flowers, mascara stained cheeks, and your grandad's old mourning coat are also bound to be met with sombre nods of approval. Smiling and laughing are thoroughly discouraged at the funeral to love and hope - there's a £1.00 fine for anyone caught flashing their pearly whites in a shameless grin.

To prove that revenge and not love conquers all, there will be a voodoo doll making session so you can stick pins in a likeness of your former beloved. And to put the final nail in the coffin of your romance, you can book to sign your divorce papers live on stage throughout the night."

Mükemmel bir fikir bence, bayıldım ben. Sold out olmasa giderdim kesin.

All the world is queer save thee and me. And even thou art a little queer.
