and always on point: anti-valentines day cards from meish.org
always echoing my sentiments on this totally made up bullshit excuse for a holiday.
and really, i think the whole day is worse if you’re coupled up than single. i know that sounds off, but if you’re single most people aren’t so douchey as to rub it in or bug you about what you’re doing on The Special Day. most, of course there are always exceptions to the rule… but still, they assume you’ll be weeping openly into a ben & jerry’s container with your 18 cats. for the most part, if you’re part of a couple, people expect you to be enveloped in grand, romantic gestures or some weak shit like that.
and if you’re not. if you’re going to just be a normal fucking human being — or maybe go kickboxing for the evening — you’re the one who’s viewed as a damn freak. not the ones making hollow, hallmark-inspired gestures to douse their affections in wanton commercialism…
where’s the fucking justice in that?
