Why is Valentine's day such a big deal in America? I swear

Japan does too

>>70155601
>that fat hand

>>70155601
Because it's a marketing ploy to get more money, and our society is hypercapitalist.

I feel like I would be a good American.

>>70155601
Commercialism.

>>70155709
You make it seem like a bad thing.

I've never done anything for Valentine's Day

;_;

It isn't unless you have a girlfriend or wife.

Money.

Why else would the feast day of a third century Roman martyr be celebrated. It certainly isn't about romance. What the fuck does being killed by Romans have to do with romance?

But there are so many fun things to do with your girlfriend on Valentine's day!

It still isn't a big deal. Missing Valentine in America is like getting a divorce.

Seemed more like anon was stating facts.

That isn't a big deal for the women; most of them are doing it.

>>70155692
that’s not a hand. that’s the hoof of a butthurt femimarxist hamplanet who will get no attention on the mother of all romantic holidays.

At least you guys have quite a few Christians

>>70155601
Totalitarianism

>>70155601
something something consumerism

I get fucking pissed when I see couples in public. KEEP THAT SHIT INSIDE.

Fuck you America for Valentines.

Your day is celebrated in India to crap out on singles :((

>>70156205
Seems like she was ROMANCED

>>70161488
>crap
I see what you did there.

It's a fake holiday used to make money. It's simple to ignore it. I've celebrated plenty of V days and there is nothing special about it. If anything its kind of a hassle because restaurants are crowded.

>>70155601
it's a commercial "holiday", businesses are out there to make big money after the january slow

>>70155689
chocolate day…

>>70161488
designated crapping out streets

>>70155601
Because holidays are a good time for commercialism.
Make your product themed around that holiday and shit it out like the chinese workers who made it are fucking usein bolt of manual labour and enjoy the money you "earned" trough "hard work"

Its fucking hilarious here to pass in front of motels and see rows of cars with horny couples waiting mins or sometimes hours just to fuck in that specific day
>>70162226
You have it in hungary too?

>>70155601
Thank god it's haram to celebrate this here.
>you still can celebrate it in private though

>>70155601
What an autistic ovservation to make.

>tfw every holiday in America is an excuse to consume candy
>tfw buying discounted leftover candy in bulk the day after

Tfw heard about that fact that Valentines Day is about chocolate in America about 2 years ago. BTW, speaking about Japan, I' ve knew it since beeing animufag, i. e. ~ 4.5 years.

Here it is just giving heart-shaped postcard with shitty rhymes with main idea "I luv u"

>buying cheap candy the day after a holiday
Mein neger, they are always the best.

>>70155601
I always end up "with my dick on my hand"(its a expression we use to say we got nothing), and have to listen to bitches crying because they got no Chad overlord to fuck them - while the only thing i wanted was just a random bitch to love me. And here it is in June
