That makes no sense because the comic is not in real time. Hasn't only about a year of time passed in the preceding decade of comic?

Maybe, but this does not change my theory at all. Jeph tends not to jump much backwards or forwards in time, there is a strict chronological progress in the overall story. But in order to tell parallel storylines, there must be some time jumps when shifting focus between them. Still, the time jumps tend to be quite small, Jeph likes to shift focus instead of completing one storyline before jumping back to the other. We saw this during the Space Station arc, where Angus and Faye suddenly appeared in the middle of the arc. Jeph probably wanted us to remember that there was still life on Earth.
EDIT: Ok, maybe I misunderstood. Because QC is not real time, it makes no sense to celebrate Valentine's Day on Feb. 14th, because in QC it would probably be just another day. Still, Jeph could have celebrated in some way outside the main storyline, like in his Happy New Year greetings.

Couldn't agree more. Although I'm probably more bitter than simply grumpy, which probably explains that I'll be telling people to enjoy their VD today.

Oh Marten... The title of todays comic says it all for me: "Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah"
I was kinda hoping Delilah's story would have helped him to not take everything so seriously all the time so that he would stop feeling sorry for himself and maybe go out from time to time, have fun and possibly meet someone interesting but alas... Marten will be Marten. :-P
