The 14 reasons why Valentine’s Day sucks De vi n L. Wil b er , De si gn Ed itor , @ D e vin Wil b er

1. Let’s just call it as it is. It’s the pinnacle of god-awful consumeristic holidays Money makes the world go ‘round, and this is apparent on Valentine’s Day. A little over a month after Christmas, retailers figure our bank accounts have recovered from the holiday season and need another reason to drag you into their stores. That’s where Valentine’s Day comes in. The love-filled holiday might not be for singles, but it isn’t for the broke, either.

2. You can’t go out to dinner because literally everyone else there is on a date, making googly eyes at each other All you wanted was to go out, grab a drink and

get a good dinner, because, why not? You’re single, and you like it that way. However, this is Valentine’s Day, and that’s not how things work. While everyone is trying to enjoy their romantic dinner, the only thing taking their eyes off their significant others is you as they throw pity looks your way.

3. Cupid is kinda weird The fact that a baby shooting people with arrows is the mascot for this holiday speaks for itself.

4. Secret admirers… how about not I know, nothing says Valentine’s Day and love like when an unsuspecting girl receives flowers and candies in the mail from an unknown stranger. But really, think about it. IT IS WEIRD. Stalkerish much?...

5. The cards people give are beyond cringe Nothing says love like a Hallmark card that 20,000 other women got, written by a guy whose whole job is to rhyme things with “you.”

6. You can’t have a bad day Having a bad week?

Did you get fired? Are you sick from the flu?

Do you have three Devin Lawrence Wilber/O’COLLY Valentine’s day means gifts, chocolate and flowers for some people but in all reality, most millentests? Doesn’t matter. nials feel the holiday is a consumer manufactured ordeal that only purges their bank accounts.

You have to pretend to be happy because everyone else is, and if you aren’t just as happy, then you are the petty person because you’re not happy on Valentine’s Day for whatever reason.

7. Falling victim to jealousy You are happy being single, and you know

cover s t o ry that deep down. That doesn’t matter today because you are jealous of everyone else posting pics with their gifts and at their dinners. Part of you just wants them to fail, but don’t worry, it’s not just you. The holiday brings out the worst in every single person.

8. The candy…

Picture this. It’s February, you are sticking to your new year’s resolution and you haven’t eaten candy in a month.

Now, throw all that out the window because it’s Valentine’s Day, and you’re going to be forcefed candy and chocolate for days.

9. It starts at a young age and doesn’t get better I don’t care who you are, but almost each and every one of us has some kind of bad Valentine’s memory from grade school. You remember those good ole days when you didn’t get a valentine from so-andso, but the rest of the class did. Exactly. The Valentine’s nightmare gets you as a young kid, and the cycle never ends.

10. If it makes love so special that day, what’s every other day?

Shouldn’t every day you are with your significant other be a special day? Well, not according to Valentine’s Day, because according to the rules of the holiday,

it alone should be one of the best days of your relationship year in and year out.

11. It’s really “Lets make all your single friends feel bad day” Yes, there are people who hate Valentine’s Day because they are lonely and want to be in a relationship. On the other hand, there are plenty of people who are single and like it that way, so why should they feel bad about a holiday that they shouldn’t even be worried about? Well, year in and year out, other couples and marketing campaigns find a way to do just that.

12. There’s always the showoffs Say you do find yourself on a date on Valentine’s Day. There are still ways to end up disappointed and mad at the end of the day. Even after you have bought that special someone flowers and chocolate, we all know there will be that one couple who goes all-out to show off its love. You know, that guy who buys the $500 teddy bear with gourmet candies and four dozen roses, trying to make every one else feel mediocre for even trying?

13. Trying to be the good friend when you just want to drink…

We all want to be happy for our friends,

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 2019

and seeing them happy with their Valentine should do just that.

However, it usually does the opposite, making us jealous of their successful relationships and lowkey hating them for it. By the end of the day, after seeing hundreds of Valentine posts on social media and getting as many “What are you doing tonight” texts, you find yourself shutting off your phone, watching Netflix and drinking an entire bottle of wine.

14. Not being able to go wild at the bars I’ll keep this short.

If you are that blackout drunk person at the bars on Valentine’s Day, it’s sad, plain and simple.

Everyone will look at you with judgment in their eyes because you look like that depressing, lonely and helpless person who is going home alone that night.

Don’t give them that satisfaction even if those were your only plans for the night.

Surefire tips for getting a date on Valentine’s Day T.C . B rewst e r, Mu li t med ia E di tor, @t b r e w28

Every year when Feb. 14 rolls around, millions of people are put into two groups: people with dates and people without.

Here are some tips to help you land yourself in the former rather than the latter.

1. Make yourself more presentable This one might be kind of obvious, but you would be surprised with how many people walk around campus every day and never smile.

There have been numerous studies conducted that

all show one thing: smiling makes you more attractive.

In some cases, a nice smile can spark up a conversation, and then with a little bit of luck, can lead to a date. Next time you’re walking around campus, try taking your headphones out and not looking like everything in your life is a lie. Another aspect that can often go overlooked is how you dress. A nice outfit can go a long way when trying to find a date. Nothing says “I have my life together, we should date” quite like showing up to your Monday morning class all dressed up.

2. Don’t be afraid to pull out all the tricks

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 2019

Finding a date on Valentine’s day doens’t have to be hard.

There are many ways you can weasel your way into a date, but here are a few of my favorites. If you have a group of friends, you can pretend you’re all going

out to eat and invite that certain someone you have your eyes on. Then at the last second, all your friends cancel, and boom, you have a date. Another go-to is the

OCOLLY.COM

ol’ study-date strategy. Go up to that certain someone in one of your classes and ask them what they thought of the last test. Then, proceed to ask them how they studied for it. Then drop the bomb, “We should study together sometime.” If things go as planned, you’ll have yourself a study date in no time.

It’s up to you to determine exactly how much studying goes on though.

3. Don’t try too hard This one might seem kind of counter-intuitive, but trust me, people can tell when you’re trying too hard. Don’t put on too much cologne. Don’t put on too

much make up. Don’t wear those extremely high high heels. Don’t put too much gel in your hair. Whatever it is for you, be cautious. You can usually tell when you are trying too hard because you stop being yourself. A person should like you for who you are, not someone you pretend to be. With that being said, nobody really wants to date that person who dresses poorly and hasn’t showered in three days, so if that’s you, then you might want to consider being someone else.
