I Hate Fucking Valentine's Day


Everywhere you go, everywhere you look.

Valentine's day bullshit.

Even in Fucking World Of Warcraft, there is Valentine mania.

Wake up people!!!! It is a brazen attempt to part you with your money!!!!

If you love someone and you have to wait until Feb. 14th to show it, there isn't a box of chocolate in the world that is going to fix that relationship.

That is all.

txrad and I celebrate nothing except maybe birthdays, and not all of those. Count me among the group who refuses to be told when I need to show love to my partner or my mother, or whatever. It's funny how I ended up in the ad biz as much as I despise marketing. :lol:

Funny how that all works. I am an actor at heart, I loved Theatre, literature, music. . . .

and I work in Engineering?

WTF?

I always call it VD Day. Or Happy Stalker's Day.

And I am shy, loathe money, hate rich people, and am terrified of rejection, and yet I work in fundraising. Go figure :)

gg-

I could not do what you do.

When I was on the board of directors for our local community Theatre, I loathed fund raising. I just hate asking people for money.

Probably one of the reasons why I hated sales so much.

Amen to that!

That said, I have no qualms whatsoever about profiting from post-Valentine's-Day sales at the good (and ordinarily too expensive for my budget) chocolate shops.

Fair enough!!

I have purchased some post-VD chocolate myself.

Oh dear, is it that time of the year again?

I must admit - I have a blind regarding those "days of celebration." They just don't register with me; probably a very, very good thing.

I know... but I LOVE chocolate and a funny card? Come on! If only we could make napping a part of that tradition...OR one better - Happy Hedonism Day? Hmmm

Ok, I'll take the nap.

:)

Robin said...

We're prone to celebrate twice a year: our wedding anniversary (July) and the anniversary of when we met (December) rather than on the Hallmark holidays. Our plans for this Thursday are to spend the day exactly the way we spend every Thursday. Together.

The nap sounds great to me. The sale-priced chocolate sounds better.

Hahahaha.

Post VD chocolate sounds good, though.
