Today we had an interesting and international discussion / debate about St.Valentine's day.
Maikel's got fed up of talking with some CERN-related couples and realizing that most don't like this day and say that it is better not celebrating St.Valentine's because "every day it's special", not just that specific day. When asked about what do they do any other day, he realized that most couples just celebrate their anniversary once a year (if anything).
Maikel's thoughts can be summarized in the following
interesting sentence from the bad guy of The Incredibles : "when everyone's super, no one will be".
During the interesting discussion, there were different opinions: the general idea is that most people don't like all the merchandising and stuff that enterprises try to sell us this day, but apart from that, Maikel found:
- who just don't like St.Valentine's day at all
- who prefers to change it for some other day (May 1st, June 12nd...)
- who prefers to celebrate only the anniversary
And Maikel says... "celebrate as much as you can!!!"
PS: as someone pointed out, celebrate as much as you can, but not everyday!!! XD
PS2: and... vote in the poll!!!
