If you're by yourself this Valentine's Day weekend, consider yourself lucky—that means you get to hang out with Merlin Bronques and his posse of "totally decadent, amazingly pretty, mostly naked people", all of whom you'll see getting down and dirty at Nerve today. Meanwhile, the coupled among us will be hiding our disappointment over cheesy chocolate assortments, fighting over which crowded restaurant to go to, and sneaking off to make out with strangers in club bathrooms. You single people don't know how good you have it.
