Because someone trying to defend their unreasonably hated interests is just soooooo fucking funny. I'm only here for this post. Sorry kid, but I don't get off on laughing at other's expense so I'm going to gtfo of this degenerate cesspool asap. People wanna get rid of furries. Well how about places like this instead? The world would be infinitely better without drama. This sub is like the young people version of watching the Hallmark channel.
At this point you should just skip it, but I guess that if someone is dumb enough to insist on finding a valentine so late just for the sake of having for the holiday, then there is at least a few people just as dumb.
It's actually pretty easy picking if you go out with some buddies to like a Valentine's Day club event or something. Women get really desperate on Valentine's Day.
It's Comment is Free which has open submissions, which basically means people pitch them stuff for free and the paper gets all the clickbait bux.
It's mostly women airing their insecurities on it. In past years there's been a few Valentine's Day articles that amount to 'why am I 35 and still single? Fucking men!'
This article only needs the last paragraph of 'put your name in a Valentine's card', but pads it out with his rejection stories and how Friends and Kurt Cobain (lol) embody toxic masculinity.
Based on the title I was wondering why the Guardian would let a man whine about not getting gussy on their pages, but it's wrapped in 'I harrassed this woman by liking her and I'm so ashamed' so that makes more sense.
Who gives a flying fuckaroo about Valentine's Day, its just another shitty corporate card holiday essentially saying if you don't buy your partner something today that means you don't love them.
It's caused by women to make guys spend more money on them. Personally I don't give a shit either way I'm still gonna buy shit like I do for halloween, Christmas, etc
But there was also a sense of grievance about Kurt Cobain that encouraged a form of male entitlement that was subtler, but arguably no less toxic, than the machismo he rejected.
then he proceeds to not explain this supposed ‘sense of grievance,’ whatever the fuck that means anyway. politics aside elementary level writing like this makes me happy “““journalists””” are being fired.

How desperate one must be to find someone at last minute on Valentine’s Day?

Why would anyone celebrate Valentine's day anyway?
1 Lokamayadon 2019-02-14
If your and your reproductive partner is mayo but the other isn't, I like to see it as a celebration of mayocide.

I really don't get it either. Just go out for dinner on any other day. Buy some nice flowers on literally any other day.

So is the guardian going to have any layoffs or is 99% of their columns just free labour consisting of men airing their insecurities.

It's a freelance writer doing an opinion column.
In other words

Comment is free is just their opinion section. I'm pretty sure he got paid for this. If not, yikes.

In current year, the only two choices for dickcels is to get #MeToo'd or Kevin Spacey'd in a bathroom, change my mind
