Anyone else hate Valentine's Day?

Or am I just sour because it doesn't apply to me?

 

i hate valentines day. but probely because it makes me feel bad about myself.

 

I hate it. You should show people you love them all year round

 

it would be nice if i was with someone, i guess.

 

I don't particularly like ANY holiday, they create too much commercialism and hussel bussel for my liking...Give me a shack in the wide open woods with some MJ and I'll be the happiest man alive! Oh yeah...my fionce too

 

Valentine's Day is soul destroying.

 

Valentine's day is a conspiracy between halmark and american greetings.

 

Just ignore it. February 14 is no different than February 13 or any other day.

 

can I help?

It's just another day to me...but did send out a card to my daughter & mother

 

I'm beginning to dislike most things that reaches society as a whole because it's conventionnal to do so, without people even asking why.

 

valentines is tacky but a good way to get laid...

 

to me valentines day is only another day, just diffrent bullshit....

 

the only fun part about tommorow is gonna be when i smoke a joint in the morning, oh yea and when i ask nicole out....(shes a 21 year old blonde milf that has 2 kids and is about 5ft7in tall size c boobs, blue eyes... she is my dream girl... and tommorow is my chance to make her my girl....)

 

wish me luck.....

 

:$ yes i agree, before we know it theres gonna be wear your underwear on your head day, or smoke a joint in front of the police station day, or like wear a kkk robe in the prodjects were all the black people hangout, or get your ass kicked by an iraqi insurgent day.... heh heh:leaving:

 

I don't hate...Hate is not good, I only like, or dislike, or Love

 

I can't get over how everyone gives their "valentine" gigantic red roses, and they don't smell like anything, and are so big they fall over. I rather dislike goliath red roses, and think it is a consumer conspiracy of the redrose growers association. There are other beautiful red flowers, and whats with all the red stuff anyway. It is really rather nuts, huh ? Chocolate hearts ( is that anatomically correct or tantalizing?), and huge, no-smell roses,( I want my flowers to smell good). Is that any way to celebrate anything ?


Do people really say "Will you be my Valentine?" Whatever in the hell does that mean anyway.? I choose to ignore most of the "traditional" special occasions fed to me by the mainstream society. We should think of some new ones, and they should be much more hip, don't you think.?

 

I hate valentines day for several reasons. I actually decided to list most of these reasons in a MySpace bulliten about 5 minutes ago. If you are at all interested, here it is:


1.) It combines none of the essential elements of real "romance". It is not thoughtful (because everyone does almost the same thing), it is not sentimental (it is about as personal as halloween), most people make no special effort, they just spend a lot of money (if he buys you roses, takes you out to eat at a nice place, and then you go to a movie, it doesn't nessecarilly mean you are really special to him... All it means is that he has money and feels social pressure).

2.) It is completely commercial. It has no religious/spiritual signifigance like Christmas, it has no patriotic signifigance like July 4th, is has no importance to a specific sub-culture like April 20th (4/20), and it has nothing to do with advocating social responsibility and awareness (like Earth Day). It's only signifigance is for big buisness (the same ones that ship jobs overseas, cut down the Amazon, segregate against their employees, force children to work in sweat shops... Yet you give them your money on the holiday they invented?).

3.) It singles out those without a signifigant other, and makes them feel worse than it makes couples feel good...

4.) It gives moronic unsensitive signifigant others the opportunity to appear nice, sweet, and romantic. While in all honesty they don't deserve their signifigant other (and are probably cheaters), they give the illusion that they are worth keeping (much like the process of guilding: painting a peice of junk gold to make it appear worth something. While still, the value has not increased, and that gold paint will wear off very shortly revealing that it is just as junky as it was before).

5.) It exploits love and romance. It takes something so important and wonderful and turns it into something that can be bought. It cheapens it!




So happy fascit-capitalist-overcommercialized-hypocritic day to you all!!!


By the way, I <3 every one of you, and I don't need a special day to say it, either.

A lot of people discredit my opinion because I am single... I think that's bull though, because only 1 of my many objections has anything to do with the single people...

 

I used to love Valentines Day when I was with my ex-boyfriend.
Now I don't have a Valentine, so I just sat around all day!

My mom got me a card though, that cheered me up a little! haha
