So, I’m at Commerce today to play their Main, and it just so happens to be my favorite holiday.
Just kidding. I don’t celebrate holidays, but Valentine's is probably my least favorite holiday if I had to go in order; I just think it's a really stupid holiday and to be honest, it's really superficial.
“I cannot wait for my woman to measure how much I love her by how big this bouquet is going to be, or how expensive dinner is.” Said no one. Ever.
It’s kinda cringe. Who wants to sit at a restaurant full of other couples displaying hella PDA and making you super uncomfortable? And I have to have a pre-fixed menu? My food options are shorter, I have to wait longer, I have to dress up and wear heels? And then be with other people who are making out?
No, I'd rather just be on my couch, eating caviar.
If you can get away with it...
You should feel confident enough in your relationship that you don’t need a holiday to make you feel special or appreciated. This should not be once a year.
So, yeah, I’m playing poker on Valentine’s Day, but then I normally play poker on every holiday that I can get away with it. I’ve played poker on Christmas and Thanksgiving. I don’t care - as long as my friends and family don’t ostracize me!
Holidays are just the worst; everything’s closed. I just go to the casino and play some poker - it’s always open.
If you can get away with going to play poker on Valentine's, then we'll just say that your relationship is really secure or you're on your way out; it’s one of the two, there’s nothing in between.
Like, give me caviar on my couch and I'm good. Plus, not every woman likes flowers. I f*cking hate flowers. Give me anything else besides flowers.
There’s an egg shortage going on; you can give me eggs.
