The fabrication of Valentines Day
In 496 AD, Pope Gelasius started Valentines Day to honor a couple of Christian martyrs. Feb. 14 was in the middle of a pagan fertility festival. In the present, you have Pajamagram telling us the Hoodie Footie is the perfect gift for Valentine’s Day - meaning there are a lot of bad ideas out there.
It’s a long story behind the holiday, but no one used to buy Valentine’s Day gifts until the 1980s, when a diamond retailer said people should. Thanks to Hallmark, jewelry companies, chocolate makers and florists, Valentines Day is a long-standing American obligation. If people enjoy having an excuse to do something romantic or show some extra love to family and friends, there is nothing wrong with that.
BUT, about the hoodie-footie…
Before you go out and get a short term personal loan for a hoodie-footie, you should know that the full name of this product is the Hoodie-Footie Snuggle Suit. If that isnt enough to make you barf, let me appeal to your logical side. Hoodie Footie Snuggle Suits cover the entire body, sans the face. The hoodie footie sends the message that you don’t want to get skin to skin when you snuggle up - which is not romantic, and in keeping with Valentine’s Day, counterintuitive.
Also, Pajamagram says that with hoodie-footie you will stay warm from head to toe. However, get ready for a cold chill if you need to use the restroom, because you basically have to get undressed to do so. I’ll keep my sweats, thank you very much.
Other lousy Valentine’s Day ideas
Dont get your significant other a Snuggie. They are flimsy and they leave brightly colored fuzz all over everything. Men should also be warned kitchen appliances and other household items aren’t usually well received either. Unless you know your partner really well, err on the side of romance.
Going out to dinner without a reservation is also among bad Valentines Day ideas. If you don’t have a reservation yet, you’d better get some ideas together for cooking. Any place that you can walk into on Valentines Day without a reservation and get a table without waiting hours is probably not somewhere you should go for Valentines Day.
As far as good ideas for Valentine’s Day are concerned, it is a great reason to splurge for steak. Valentine’s Day is about spending some quality time with your partner, and a home cooked dinner at home might be just as good.
