41 #lifehacks to get you through the dumbest day of the year

  1. Two words for you: Puppy Party!

  2. See how much pizza you can fit in your mouth at one time.

  3. Draft a text to your ex. Then, throw your phone into the nearest river/lake/ocean/toilet.

  4. Go for a walk. Take some deep breaths of fresh air. Walk so far you no longer recognize your surroundings. Then keep walking. Find a motel. Get a job. Start a new life. Never look back.

  5. Check Craigslist missed connections, just to make sure your soulmate isn’t looking for you. Not that you care...

  6. Jam out to Smokey Robinson’s Greatest Heartbreak Hits.

  7. Take up a hobby! Like crocheting or stamp collecting or eating an entire thing of peanut butter M&M’s as fast as you can by yourself.

  8. Ask a stranger to marry you. Can’t hurt.

  9. Eat 2 pounds of potatoes, any style, as long as they are battered & fried.

  10. Make a green juice to counteract the potato coma. Science!

At the end of the day, remind yourself that Valentine’s Day is just a product of the greeting card industrial complex, don’t let it get you down!
