The lonely hate lovers’ day

It is annoying to constantly hear people talking about how overrated Valentine’s Day is

Hating on Valentine’s Day seems to be de ri gueur on social media. The general opinion is that you are a brainwashed moron if you celebrate Valentine’s Day.

Yes, yes.

We all know how absolutely thrilled you are about being single. You are free from all those lame Valentine’s Day commitments and obligations. Yes, you are enlightened and superior because you don’t subscribe to outdated, narrow-minded views of romance but for the love of God, Stop ruining the day for happy people who enjoy Valentine’s Day. It’s really annoying.
