Well, at least eggs are… more expensive than ever.
Secondly, I did Google it. And according to that, around 500AD Valentines day was originally established to honor the Saint
Yes. So your claim that Christmas has been “celebrated for hundreds (or even thousands) of years before coke existed. Valentine’s Day wasn’t.” is incorrect. We’re done here.
Tell you what, how about you go google “The Feast of St. Valentine” and then we’ll pick this conversation back up. Sound good?
There’s a clear difference between the longstanding traditions behind Christmas/Yule and the capitalism-driven Valentine’s Day sales event. And we all know it.
Yes, like jolly old Santa Claus dressed up in his red and white suit as popularized by… Coca Cola in the ‘30s. You’re right, Christmas is totally different than Valentine’s Day.
Edit: As many are trying to point out,
Just to be clear, by “many” you mean two. Two people replied to you… now it’s three.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, keep moving those goalposts. I’m not playing your stupid games.
“I don’t know about it so it’s not real.” Typical moron logic.
Dumb take.
Holy shit you’re still in this thread crying? Christ. I’m just gonna go ahead and block you, it’s abundantly clear you’re a vacuous knob and there’s nothing to gain by interacting with you.
Does someone tie your shoes for you, or are they Velcro?
I’m just jocking lol. There’s many reason to be mad right now, a bad joke (there I’m admitting it) isn’t a good one.
My dude… You told a bad joke, you got downvoted for it, and started whining about how nobody understood your joke. Nobody seems mad except you.
But you user name checks out lol.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I see you’re as original as you are funny.
I call it humor.
Congrats, you’ve just experienced your first time “bombing” it’s something every aspiring comedian experiences. Write better jokes.
Wanna know how I know you didn’t read that? Because it doesn’t disagree with me. Coca Cola popularized the modern depiction of Santa Claus.
Notice how I didn’t say they created it, nor did I say they invented it? I said they popularized it.
