Men and women prefer candy to flowers - Both men and women prefer to receive chocolate over flowers, according to the National Confectioners Association. The survey also found that chocolate sales represent 75 percent or more of Valentine's Day candy purchases.

The chocolate box has been around for more than 140 years - In addition to creating arguably the richest, creamiest, and sweetest chocolate on the market, Richard Cadbury also introduced the first box of Valentine's Day chocolates in 1868, as History.com reports.

And there's a standout favorite in every box - According to the National Confectioners Association, caramels are the most popular flavor in chocolate boxes, followed by chocolate-covered nuts, chocolate-filled, cream-filled, and coconut.

More Americans skip Valentine's Day than you realize.

Whether it's because they're single or think the holiday is beyond cheesy, about 3 in 10 adults reported in a survey by the National Retail Federation that they're not celebrating the day of love, though they may treat themselves to a small gift or a night out with friends and family. Oh well, more chocolate and roses for us!

Women are more likely to treat themselves than men on Valentine's Day.

Sixteen percent of flowers purchased by women on Valentine's Day are going to none other than themselves, according to the Society of American Florists. So if you want flowers on the holiday but don't have a special someone who will show up at your doorstep with a bouquet, know that you're absolutely not alone when you treat yourself to a floral arrangement.

Teachers are the number one recipient of Valentines - And honestly, who else is more deserving? Oftentimes classrooms in elementary schools do fun Valentine exchanges to celebrate the holiday, which means that teachers often receive a sweet note from each of their students, making them the group of people who receive the most Valentines, according to Good Housekeeping.

There's a cool reason why we call people our Valentines - According to legend, when St. Valentine was imprisoned, he wrote a letter and signed it "From your Valentine," Reader's Digest reports. The signature caught on, and now signing a love letter from a Valentine is common practice.

X's and O's didn't always mean kisses and hugs - It's believed that signing with an X comes from the Middle Ages, when an X was used in the place of a signature because many people couldn't read or write, according to The Knot. It also was a Christian symbol that represented the cross, and the idea is that the history of Christians kissing statues of Christ or kissing the bible led to X getting its meaning as a modern-day kiss.’ (Source

“I think we’re done,” says Trish24. “Misty, let’s call Elsa and tell her that we’ve got a lot of trivia for the party. Misty! Oh Misty!”

Misty has no idea how those girls have so much energy. She is pooped from all that trivia googling. Not only is she pooped but her brain is seeing X’s and O’s. She rubs her eyes thinking that she is seeing things that aren’t there. Nope, the girls are still dancing up a storm. She has to call Elsa.
