Singles Day...should be celebrated too
8Valentine’s day…meh, do we really need a day to splurge on our significant other under the guise of pink, red, mauve, fuschia, or blood-colored cupcakes, cards, teddy bears, rare-steak dinner and roses…???
Cupid…a short chubby toddler carrying a weapon and wearing a diaper…think Chucky…isn’t really a cutie…
Singles day on the other hand is a holiday…
As Michael Douglas said, " Being single is pretty good. It’s a nice sense of irresponsibility."…
Please have something for singles MEH, on the day after that commercially ruined chocolate candy day…

I absolutely read this as “Shingles Day” and was very concerned.
@Thumperchick glasses? ?
@AZnatural1 wearing them. New ones. It’s my brain to blame.
@AZnatural1 @Thumperchick You need a vacation to somewhere warm.
@OldCatLady @Thumperchick I live in Phoenix, AZ, and work in a geothermal hydrology facility.
@AZnatural1 @OldCatLady @Thumperchick So your saying either way, it all just comes down to Herpes?
@mehcuda67 @OldCatLady @Thumperchick ??? 90% of the population are carrying the virus but are too afraid of being tested for HSV-1 or HSV-2 so therefore continue to deny they are carrying the virus??? That would include ALL people…not just couples…
I don’t know about you, but I celebrate “singles day” every day.
Further, Valentines gives us “the great candy discount day” on 2/15.

Target had cards for Galentine’s Day which I assume is for single gals.

What is “Commercially ruined chocolate candy?”
Is that like when candy sells out? Is some chocolate just in it for the tastiness? Did you used to like chocolate before it was cool?
@Limewater commercially…we all know valentine’s day was created by the candy, cards and teddy bear stores to buy more products…and then the chocolate is ruined on this " holiday" because you pay more for less…a heart instead of a rectangle…box that is…
Chocolates should refuse to be wrapped in fancy cellophane and tied with a ribbon…makes you work extra hard to open the package yet the chocolate is still smaller in size to fit in the heart shaped box…
It’s all a gimmick …
.
@Limewater and it’s ruined chocolate candy day, specifically as in overpriced Valentine’s day treats…which will be A lot less the very next day…
@Limewater feb 15 is cheap chocolate day
@mfladd Oh I’m definitely lonely, but it trumps miserable, and that’s what my last relationship brought. I’ll choose lonely over misery every freakin time.
@ruouttaurmind Agreed, I wake up happy everyday. The funny thing is I am not lonely at all. I like hanging out with myself, and of course the dog. Plus, I have the kids.
That being said…
@mfladd @ruouttaurmind here here!!
Every day is a holiday when you’re single. Let us who suffer through marriage have a special day once a year please…
/ Joking my wife is actually awesome (go ahead @mediocrebot)
VAN MURALS! GROUND SQUIRRELS! SPIT CURLS! AWESOME!
Hell yes. And the traditional gift should be sympathetic sexual favors.
@DennisG2014 I hope you find another single person and you can swap gifts.
I love this scene from Sex in the City and I am still waiting for my pair of shoes or favors (yes please, lol) from all my friends and family!!
Celebrate being single
Isn’t that every other day?
February 15, 2019 – SINGLES AWARENESS DAY
The day after Valentine’s Day has been designated Singles Awareness Day. February 15th declares to the world that there is nothing wrong with being single.
Singles Awareness Day is believed to have been started by Mississippi State University student, Dustin Barnes.
Happy Singles Awareness Day, @AZnatural1 !
