Mmk, so I've been asked by a few people. Why does the awesome Matt dislike V-day? Is it because he's single? Nope. Here's why.
V-day, it's overrated, and it's a marketing scheme to just get money from peopel by getting them to buy dumb shit they don't need to express their love for somebody. Obviously it isn't true love if you have to buy candy and flowers and balloons to get the person to say, "I love you!!!!". Sure, they might not be the kind that people say in a relationship, but I have people say, "I love you!!" to me almost everyday, and I don't give them hearts and chocolate.
Valentine's day is also just another excuse to have the whores fucking making out all over the halls. As if our school isn't whored-up enough, V-day just makes the teachers care less if you rape somebody in the halls. Then you get to deal with couples walking -50 mph through the damn halls, sweet-talking their loved one. This is where most people would be like, "AWWW, so adorable!". But no. This is where Matt just gets proper mad and walks in between them, breaking up that little romantical moment. And not wanting to be late to class. Try explaining that one.
You- Sorry I was late!
Teacher- Why were you late?!
You- A couple was walking really slow and I couldn't get ahead of them!
Teacher- LIAR! REFERRAL!
I know, fun, isn't it?!
Also, if people knew the real story of Valentine's day, it wouldn't constitute a romantic, love-sick holiday. On February 14 is was said that the young boys and girls of the villages would write down the names of every girl and place these names in a jar of which each young man would have to draw a name of a girl and this particular maiden would be their partner for the duration of the festival. Sometimes these parings would last a year and end up in marriage. These rituals under the laws of Claudius were banned as the Emperor believed that the reasons why men would not go to war were because they did not want to leave their lovers or families. As a result all marriages and engagements were canceled. As a result, Saint Valentine, a Roman priest, was said to have married these couples in secret and for this he was executed on the 14th day of February.
Romantical shit right there, ain't it?!
Valentine's day has become way too commercialized these days. And my last reason for not liking V-day? I'm a guy! Sure, I can have my sweet and nice moments when I want to/try to, but overall, I don't like the romance gig. I can get the same point proven by just kissing my significant other and saying, "I love you!", rather than celebrating the death of a priest by buying candy and balloons. Plus, not liking V-day saves me a shitload of money! =D
