Another bullshit "holliday". Well, I guess that with Valentine's, anniversary, her birthday AND yours, that's FOUR times a year that a married dude doesn't have to beg for sex (If, of course, he BUYS the favor with presents, flowers, and candy).

I feel really bad for you guys, my hand doesn't ask for ANYTHING.

Fuck sweetest day. Its the biggest bunch of bullshit I've ever seen.

What exactly is the difference between Sweetest Day and Valentine's Day? They're both about the fucking chick anyway. Pay for her meal, take her shopping...

These days are pretty easy for me. I'm making some big yummy steak and eating it too. Minimal effort, and we're both happy.

I gotta tell you dolts: Sweetest Day is some kind of gay Michigan thing. It's not done anywhere else. I guess that's what make Michigan so specail!

The leaders and best.

Not true at all.

My parents were married on a Sweetest Day and celebrate their anniversary on Sweetest Day so it'll always be on a Saturday rather than some stupid day in the middle of the week or something.

Not true at all.

Well, where else, then?

I've heard about it in many places. I live in Ohio and everyone here talks about it. I've heard about it from friends that live in other areas of the country as well.

Ohio doesn't count.
I've LIVED in Denver, San Francisco, Des Moines, Norf Carolina, and Nebraska. I've spent alot of time in Wisconsin.
Never heard anyone mention Sweetest Day.
And, I don't give a rat's arse. I don't even celebrate Valentine's Day, birthdays, and can barely stand Xmas. Easter is completely out of the question. So I give Sweetest Day a big fat thumbs down. Cancel it.

What a terrible thing to spread some love to people you care about. Sounds like just the thing Zip would hate.

In a less pessimistic tone. Sweetest Day is something easy to remember and show a woman that she means something to you.

Sounds like Fool doesn't get much play with The Ladies. Anyone that sensitive is probably a lifelong member of the Friend Club.

By the way, "spreading love" is a daily occurrence. No need to rush out to the drug store and spend thirty two seconds picking out some piece of shit card that says something like:

I love the way your eyes sparkle bright
You are my one delight
The day I met you, my life began
I'll always be your biggest fan

and then topping it off with a box of chocolates that will gravitate to her hips (and you'll love the results three years after you marry her when she's gained 1200 pounds). And doing it all because....you're afraid of her getting mad if you don't. Don't fucking kid me about "spreading love". Pick up some bar whore if you want to do that.

I truly hope your real life is far from your dog shit internet persona.

And while I agree that showing people you care is best done everyday, that doesn't mean you can't make some days unique. And no, doing it to placate someon isn't worth your 32 seconds which is probably why you stopped. Women, almost universally, love cards and flowers. What the giver thinks about their value is beside the point, its about the people you give them to.

I agree, another BS holiday. We don't celebrate Sweetest day or Valentine's day. Once you are married your anniversary is your day. No other days should you be expected to buy each other gifts as "your day".

I didn't even hear about it until about 5 years ago, then it just came out of nowhere on me. My girlfriend at the time said something to the effect of "So what are you getting me for sweetest day?", to which I responded "What the fuck is that?". When she explained the "holiday" to me, I laughed and said it was bullshit and she wasn't getting anything. Just another Halmark holiday.

Zekyl, you're a man. Are you 40 by any chance?

My wife and I shook on it and agreed that we would never recognize Sweetest Day and then she said "besides, you're going to watch the Michigan game that night anyways, right?" and I said, "I love you".

WINNER!

I have to recognize it as my parents' anniversary. Fortunately, their preferred anniversary gift to themselves these days is taking a trip away from Michigan.

Y'all must be whipped pretty badly. I used to make more posts in a minute.

I had a biz meeting at a bar/restaurant that started at the half of the UofM game. My wife called and asked what she should make for dinner. Now thats sweet of her.

Dude, those days are over.

You should be spending your Saturday evenings here. We're supposed to jam (but NOT be bros and chillax) in the music thread, talk about the game, and take other threads off topic.

Bars? Dinner with the wife? What the fuck?

And thats why I come here. This place grounds me. What could I possibly have been thinking.

Thanks man, I'm back.

Sweetest Day what a joke! I did nothing for my girlfriend most likely because neither of us knew when it was.

It is a joke, but i am with Fool on the fact that there is nothing wrong with doing shit for the people you care about on that day and every day you can.

My wife ASKED me if she could go shopping and spend $50 ON HER OWN. I watched a decent Tex Tech - Tex A&M game, 1st quarter of an MSU meltdown, 2/3's of UofM, Wings vs. Rangers and UFC 758 or something. I was happy, she was happy. Happy fucking Sweetest Day!
