...because I want to live in a place filled with bitter people (like me) who hate Valentines Day (like me).
From Time:
According to Russian news agency RIA-Novosti, Uzbekistan is cracking down on celebrating love on February 14, canceling concerts and other romance-themed events.
As a substitute, authorities have arranged readings of poems by Mughal emperor Babur — whose birthday falls on Cupid’s holiday — for residents of the country’s capital city, Tashkent.
I'm not sure about the medieval poetry thing, but the "not celebrating love" on February 14 resonates loudly in my bitter, empty soul.
