Cherry Kisses

I think the Anti-valentine’s Day post may be the most consistent topic i write about. I still believe it to be a creation of card and candy producers to make more money. Someday I will create a mass-marketing campaign where Plutonic (It’s spelled wrong. It’s an inside joke) Day will trump Valentine’s Day.

Ok so here's some history on it. Supposedly there was a Saint Valentine back in the day but no one is really sure as to the origin story. He would cheer up other prisoners by passing out little notes or treats. It makes me wonder what sort of reception he would receive if he were to try this in our modern prison system today.

I’m not a fan of pink. My Alma mater has embedded me to hate red. So if the official colors of this holiday/occasion are pink and red it’s a no go.

Why celebrate love with one day? It should be everyday.

It's not even good enough to grant us time off work. If a guy showing up in a boat leading to the near extinction of a population can get a holiday and a day supposedly about love cannot something must be wrong.

It gets in the way of nerf gun dart war (I’m just teasing. No I am not).

It’s one of those days that are anti-independent. If you have someone special in your life yay you. If you don’t… you lose. There’s a two-part ad for a restaurant which is offering specials for couples and singles. Couples get a nice romantic dinner and singles are encouraged to drink the night away. That's right, get drunk, get in a car accident and die because no one loves you. No one will miss you.

If you forget to wish Jocelyn a Happy Valentine’s Day, she’ll be mad.

Well the entire thing isn’t bad. Our favorite candy producers usually come out with special addition versions of classic candies.

And in case you were wondering what I will be doing this day, I will be having a steak dinner, at home, with just myself and my parents. Help me.
