Valentine’s Day is not Christmas

My Target has bathing suits already.

Who came up with this ?
Why a heart ? love is good for the heart, makes it beat
Why red ? hearts are red
Why sexual ? I dunno
Why chocolates ? chocolates are something you savor orally, love is a sickness wherein the object of your affection appears to be a food item
WHY WHY WHY ?

LOL a man hating on Valentine's Day for being a "made up holiday" and judging women for wanting ::checks notes:: a nice simple date once a year. How novel, how edgy! You're basically the pumpkin spice latte bros of winter. There's nothing less innovative or interesting than being righteously indignant at the idea that a holiday could possibly cater to Not You.

Flower, card, dinner. That’s enough.


Flower, card and dinner? You fell for the Hallmark sentiment hook, line and sinker. I don't want any of those things.


I didn't


The wife did.


But you’re going to get a BJ and more as your present.


No, he's not. That's only for his birthday.


Wow. I would hate to be him if he only gets it on his bday

Fresh flower bouquets are getting ridiculously expensive. Those flowers, along with the $50 will be in the compost bin in 3-4 days.

Whats this?


White Day is celebrated annually on March 14, one month after Valentine's Day, when people give reciprocal gifts to those who gave them gifts on Valentine's Day. It began in Japan in 1978; its observance has spread to several other Asian nations and countries worldwide.

I’m shocked that the US card and flower industry hasn’t jumped on this yet.

They aren't going to touch that one with a 10 foot pole.

I’ve been happily married 20 years and we barely acknowledge the day even exists. I don’t have material wants I can’t afford to just buy when I want them. Same for him. Plus we just don’t like accumulating “stuff.” We have plenty of date nights. Life is good. I do buy the kids each a bag of Sour Patch Kids, their favorite.

Says who? Not all of us celebrate Christmas. It is your big holiday. Not ours.

And stop it with all the decorations. I’ve seen Valentine’s Day’s trees and gnomes in pink.

It’s not Christmas! Stop it!

We usually make surf and turf with the kids and get a decadent chocolate dessert. Don’t go out because the prices are crazy and so freaking crowded.

Too many wives don’t think it’s a joke and follow that line of thinking
