It may seem crazy to be talking about Valentines Day in October, but I want to. Valentines day is a time of the year where you brag about your boyfriend and what he does for you. Post as many pictures of your romantic date online so that EVERY other girl is jealous. Way jealous. That is, if the other girls have time to even look away from the pictures they have most recently posted of their romantic Valentines Day date. Or week. Some go a little over the top. Anyway--in February us innocent bystanders are at least prepared to see all of these posts all over the web. There are even e-cards and jokes (nobody thinks it's funny anymore) that actually refer to Valentine's day as "Singles Awareness MONTH". In October though I feel that my eyes are safe, they will not be infected with the sights of cute couples kissing anytime I look online. WRONG. It's October, the month of Halloween, the NEW Valentines Day, kind of. This was brought to my attention this morning by my extremely observant and Instagrammaholic roommate, Tehya. We both agreed that all we have seen are pictures of couples on Halloween dates! Which is fine, because we do it too.
(I imagine all of the following said in this voice.)
"Let's carve pumpkins!"
"Let's dress up as a couple!"
"Let's dress up as a CELEBRITY couple!"
"Wait, I want to look pretty!"
"Let's go to a haunted house!!"
"I want you to take me to a haunted house because I would act really obnoxiously scared at an unrealistic level so that I can hold your hand! And that would be romantic!!"
"Let's take a picture!"
"Oh that was bad, ANOTHER!!!"
