I have yet to determine whether anyone really, truly likes Valentine's Day. Don't get me wrong, I'm all about showing our significant others a little extra love, but why only one day a year? Do we just let the other 364 days slide? While yes, if you're in a relationship, V-Day is a fun excuse to do something extra sweet for your significant other. But what about for the singles or the hopelessly unromantic? Luckily, there's a funny Valentine's Day quote for everyone— skeptics and lovers alike.
I'll apologize in advance to anyone whose favorite holiday is Valentine's Day, because though I've been happily married for a few years and appreciate the sentiment behind it, I just can't help but cringe a little bit when the supermarkets begin the transition from New Years to V-Day.
If you, like me, feel like channeling your inner April Ludgate when Feb. 14 rolls around, you're in luck. Because whether you're contentedly in a relationship, in the throws of a break up or planning a full on celebration of singles awareness day, a little bit of playful sarcasm can go a long ways in the midst of aisles of pink and red and chocolate everything.
