Valentine Schmelentine
"Valentine's Day is a day invented by greeting card companies to make people feel like crap."
Joel (Jim Carrey)
in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)
Had a conversation with some of my colleagues yesterday, about Valentine's Day.
The most common question of the day, "Any big plans tonight?"
For single people who don't celebrate, some of their answers/reasons/things they do:
i) Singles yang loser: "Weh aku mana celebrate Valentine's Day doh. Valentine's Day nih kan follow orang Christian, to celebrate Saint Valentine's Day, said to be a priest in Rome. Christian ada festival diorang, Jews ada festival diorang, kita ada festival sendiri. Takkan nak follow pulak brader." (tak pasal-pasal jadik alim)
ii) Singles yang mengaku kononnya ada girlfriend/boyfriend: "Why should we have a specific day to celebrate love? We should celebrate our loved ones every single day. Malam nih aku penat ah. Tido kat rumah je." (padahal layan p*rn)
iii) Singles yang takde idea nak menipu camne dah: "Mengarut ah benda-benda nih. Menghabihkan duit aku je. Baik aku tido je. Penat doh, dah la weekday." (padahal layan p*rn jugak, dengan gigih)
iv) Singles yang terlampau loser: Antar bunga, teddy bear & greeting card yang sweet kat diri sendiri
For couples who somehow don't celebrate, some of their answers/reasons:
i) Couples yang betul-betul alim: "Religious reasons."
ii) Couples yang partner diorang away/outstation/Missing In Action: "Entah la, dalam banyak-banyak hari, hari ni pulak dia takde. Tak sayang i betul la. By the way you wanna go out tonight? For a drink perhaps? Or dinner? In KL Tower?"
iii) Couples yang tengah bergaduh: "Isk kitorang mana celebrate benda-benda camnih. We don't believe in such thing. We celebrate every single day together like Valentine's Day.." (pppfftt)
Just a joke guys, I'm just playing hehe.
For those who celebrate Valentine's Day today (for whatever reasons), I don't wanna wish you guys anything. Just appreciate your loved ones with special treatment every single day, for the rest of your lives. Not just on Valentine's Day.
For those who don't, have a good rest and take it easy on the something good!
I'm out.. gtg to"see" my lil baby!
