Down with Valentines day!

Valentines day is one of the worst holidays of the year. The greeting card industry and florist make a killing while making people feel like crap. Ever since I was a kid I absolutely HATED this stupid holiday.

When you're a kid it's not too bad, you end up passing out little candies to everyone and silly cards. But when you're the "poor" kid of the class and can only pass out either the cards or the candies, sometimes not being able to do either was just down right bad. Made you want to stay home to avoid the why aren’t you participating types of questions. (And it's not that your parents aren't hard workers, it's just that there are more important things in life such as food, water, the clothes on your back, the roof over your head and the basic necessities of everyday life that they put before the extra things. Which is what RESPONSIBLE parents do. Not that it made it any easier, but you knew it was for the best.)

As teenagers it doesn't get any better. You end up having the secret valentines, which is basically friends and "couples" buying little cards with suckers taped to the envelope on them during lunch starting towards the end of January up until the day before Valentine's day that end up being passed out during one particular period in which teacher aids, and staff members would go from room to room to pass them out. If you've ever been in a class with little miss or mister popularity they usually end up with like 100 stupid cards that are going to end up in the trash in a few days anyways. And as you listen to all of the gibberish about how in love they are with so and so it makes you want to puke. When you get to lunch with your friends, if you've had any passed out to them. But didn't receive not even one, it's a pretty awkward lunch. You just happen to be the only one they "forgot". Even though it was something everyone agreed on so that your group of so called friends wouldn't have to be left out of the stupid ass holiday in the first place. Pact my eye!

Boyfriends are no different no matter what their age is! So I'm just going to lump them in with Husbands as well. Men are all idiots! They either totally forget, even though there are tons of advertisements from the moment you get into your car until you go home to watch television. And the simple fact that it's been the same day as it's always been for YEARS! But why should that be any different than your birthday or any other holiday for that matter.

Men can typically remember those types of holidays if they're trying to get under your skirt, have only been dating them for 2 years or less, or have really fucked up and they are doing some major ass kissing. If you've been dating for more than 2 years or are married and the honeymoon is finally over with you're totally screwed and you might as well buy your own damn chocolate and call out sick. Because chances are, just like junior high and high school there is always little miss popular whether she's married or just really popular with the guys. :-P

It's like watching "The Office" when Phyllis kept getting gifts from her husband, and other women kept getting small things as well, while Pam started to get irritated that she didn't get squat. And at the end of the day when her fiancé finally showed up and she asked him why he didn't get her anything he winked and said she was getting something better than flowers, he said he was going to give her hot sex all night. (Something along those lines) She looked like she wanted to puke. I mean seriously, come on! The last thing we want to do after working all day is more work, we don't want to hurt your feelings guys but if we have to, just get it over with already and don't try to make it a marathon. It would be a lot more fun if there was actual romance to it then to have that as a constellation prize!

If it's because you can't afford to buy us a gift at least pick up a .99 cent card at the freakin dollar store. And if you do decide to get her a card, you need to read it before you buy it! Nothing more embarrassing than her opening a card for GRANDMA, or to be reading one in Spanish when you don't even speak it, duh! Or do something for us like cook dinner......that doesn't mean take out. (Ain't nothin sexier than a guy that is willing to cook, even if it doesn't turn out right and you end up ordering take out anyway.) Or rent a chick flick that she's been dying to see! Or watch one of the ones she already has, it's more than likely her favorite any way.

For the most part for women it's not about getting a gift to prove you love them. It's just about expressing how you feel about you're "loved" one. Which is how you should really treat each other the rest of the time anyway.

At the end of the day if she didn't receive anything at work, because you couldn't afford it, it would be nice to be showed how much she's loved. If you're able to hear her pulling into the garage go out there and help her in the house with her purse, lunch box thingy if she takes one, her jacket if she's not wearing it etc. If you live in an apartment and know she's not going anywhere after work head out to where she normally parks at about when she would be pulling up and do the same thing. Give her a hug and a kiss then TELL her happy Valentine's Day, you big oaf! Don't be so retarded geez! If you're just flat out lazy don't be surprised if you don't get laid that night, but hell, you're probably to lazy to really try anyway.

So to all of the Pam's out there hope you didn't have to put up with that type of crap on a work day. Hope you had a relaxing Friday and spent the night in away from that dreaded day. And if you're little miss popularity, well good for you.

Disneyland is for kids!

First off let me just say that I'm all for freedom of expression! However, when attending a place like the magic kingdom I feel that adults really need to censor themselves. Not just their language, ludeness, and implications but also in the manor in which they dress.

Ladies it is NOT appropriate to go to Disneyland wearing articles of clothing that just barely cover your privates. The children should not be exposed to your nasty body, no matter how good you or your partner think it looks. Parents don't care if you can turn heads because you look "good". If it's something you would wear to a club it's more than likely not appropriate to places like Disneyland that are made for CHILDREN. So please leave your slutty one night stand club clothes at home.

I'm saying this because the last time I was at this wonderful place for children, they allowed a hooker into the park. She wore a tight see through spaghetti strapped tank top with no bra. (And hun if you were cold it was pretty obvious what the weather would be like, you should have worn more clothing and a bra sheesh!) And if it had been cut any lower we all would have been able to see the color of her nipples. Also we don't care if you've just had a boob job and that's the reason for your attire.

As for her skirt, it was so short I feared if she bent over we'd all see the moon early, it was bad enough that you could see the bottom portion of her bum so if she was wearing any underwear at all it was just a thong, ick! Skirts should not be so short that we can tell what color underwear you're wearing if at all. She was packed in that "skirt" if you want to call it that, like a stuffed sausage. It made her look as though she had rolls hanging out everywhere and she was NOT fat by any means. It was just 10 times to small for her, I don't know how she was breathing in that outfit.

What I don't understand is how she got into the park, do they not have a dress code they are supposed to enforce? If she changed once they were inside, any of the many "crew members" should have told her to change or get the frick out. And I would have to say about a good 98% of the male crew members did check her out so it's not like they didn't see her. It was very annoying to see her at the park throughout the day dressed that way, she didn't even have a child with her. Which is probably why she didn't find what she was wearing to be offensive.

One woman was more outspoken than I would have been, she notice her husband kept turning around and when she saw what he was looking at she told him to stop looking at the tramp behind him. If the other woman heard she either didn't care or thought it was funny. (I'm guessing she heard, probably likes that type of attention.)

It was also rather annoying standing in line a few feet away from them because they really just needed to get a room. He kept putting his hand on her butt and squeezing it, it was like ok, you know it's there stop grabbing it. The one woman that told her husband to stop staring actually walked over and told them to either get a room or start acting like mature adults at Disneyland. They ignored her so she rolled up her map of the magic kingdom and started hitting the tops of their heads like dogs.

Once that got their attention she told them to either leave the park and find a sleazy 8 Motel or stop being lude in front of all of the children. (I believe we were all standing in line for the Finding Nemo ride) The tramp told her to mind her own business and soccer mom told her that their behavior was unacceptable in front of her children. The tramp told her if she didn't like it she should find another ride. To which the soccer mom told her no, why should I this is a place for children not for "quickie's" or "happy endings" in line for a child's ride. This is one place where I shouldn't have to move out of line with my children because I don't like what I see. Then a ton of women chimed in telling the tramp she had to go. I think her escort had enough, and probably didn’t want to get beaten down by a bunch of angry parents so he led her out of the ride and they went somewhere else.

I agree with both sides, we should have to see that crap in Disneyland. Yet if we had been somewhere else then we could all just leave or walk away enough so that we don't have to see it. But when at a place like that why should we! And before anyone says, "you're probably fat and unhappy with your own body." Before you start commenting rudely, I'm not unhappy with my body and I'm not fat by any means. 1. I would wear something like that, in my bedroom with my husband! 2. It's fine to be totally confident in yourself and to show off a little but I think there is a line between showing off and dressing like you're walking the streets. 3. There is a time and a place for everything. Learn it. Ok I’ll get off my soapbox now.
