    Singleton Hate Day!

    So, the time is fast approaching Hexites, when all the crazies in the world get together to feel all

    What I want to know is who else out there detests the day when people who haven't found someone are made to feel crap and pathetic....

    It's a pointless occasion whether you're single or in a couple. Don't let it get you down

    Its brilliant, never a better time to pick up a girl that when she is willing to lower her standards thanks to the pressure of society tell her how worthless she is as an independent person.

    tldr; head.

    Tempting... but finding the desperate women would require actually going out... which would require the confidence to not give a rats arse that I'm alone, which would negate the need to find said desperate woman in the first place....

    Get it on with your looser friends then, go suggesting and hassling for things.

    Granted sometimes my friends have made me say (on numorous occasions) this is the last time I ever plan anything more complex than a night out to the nearest pub, with whoever is around that night, but still, we make the effort!

    curry. Nothing better than a good curry with the lads. I hated the day as a single. Now I'm taken I still hate it.

    Re: Singleton Hate Day!

    Try saying this

    "I don't do Valentines Day, it's just the socio-economic oppression of women providing a once-a-year reminder that they're taken."

    And quickly follow up with

    "Such things shouldn't be just once a year, now please, put the knife down!"

    On the other hand, the 15th probably offers a large array of depressed single women, along with a good supply of reduced price chocolates, flowers and champagne.

    Fortunately, my wife and I agree on this! So we don't do Valentine's day. But you'd be amazed how often we treat each other to presents or a nice meal out sometime during February

    Not this year mind, as we're moving house on the 16th... *sigh*
