Okay, as kind of a disclaimer, I don't hate the people who celebrate Sweetest Day, I know it's one of those "relationship" days that people in relationships look foward to, so this isn't really directed at you, it's just directed towards the fuckers who actually came up with, and continue to promote, this dumbass idea. Valentine's Day is enough to actually make single people feel like there's something wrong with them, and that's okay, because it happens in February, so you've still got the Christmas and New Years rush that can die down. But Sweetest Day? Come on, they didn't even try to hide the fact that this is just to sell candy, cards, jewelry, and restaurant passes during the regular down time this time of year. It's OBVIOUSLY not a guy holiday, if you even want to call it that. It's kind of the lesser known holiday...kind of like the token ugly guy in a boy band? He's in there, but people go out of their way to either hate or mock him. I am fully aware of the fact that I'm only saying this because I'm single, but I also know that no guy in their right mind who is in a relationship actually looks forward to this day in anticipation of shelling out at least $50 on something. This dumbass holiday already screwed me over, too. I was supposed to hang out with a couple of people this weekend, nothing major, but just kill some time and hang out, but because all of them are in relationships now, I'm stuck hanging out either by myself, or with other single people, which is equally depressing and annoying. Here's how I think Sweetest Day came around: a bunch of card and candy company CEOs were sitting around one day, and one guy laughs and says "How dumb do I think Americans are? I bet you we could sell those idiots another holiday." "Look, Frank, Americans are pretty gullible, but they're not gonna buy gifts for a second Valentines day!" "*Laughs* Oh, yes they are! Let's just tell them it's just another day to show that you care!"...and Sweetest Day was born.
