I went with Valentine's Day. I don't consider Black Friday a holiday so that wasn't really an option to me. Valentine's Day is lame to me because if you are single, the holiday is just there to remind you that you've got no one. And if you do, it pressures you to do all sorts of ridiculous crap.

Valentines day - simply because there's now a massive commercial pressure to show your partner how much you love them on this one day. I prefer to make sure that my g/f knows every single day how much I love her (as opposed to the day where I'm socially obliged to show her some affection).

Oh, I guess it's still a U.S.-only thing. Or in particular a Midwestern U.S. thing.
It's sort of a second Valentines Day, held in October and brought to you by people in Cleveland. Then again, so was the burning of the Cuyahoga River, so perhaps we shouldn't take their word as gospel.Knowledge is power. Power corrupts. Study hard. Be evil.

I hate Valentines day - last year was the one year I've had where it was "good" by societal romance standards;
But I grew up in a flower shop.... Valentines starts on Jan. 2nd....
If you end up dating someone who works in a Flower Shop at Valentines - best gift ever? a massage!I am well versed in the "gentle" art of verbal self-defense

I generally like most holidays, I voted april fools because it really isn't my thing. I like Labor day, do you know that is really hard to spell right (for you US peeps anyway ) for an English girl like me. Mostly because it means I'm at Dragon*Con which is pretty much the only reason I know it exists.Final Fantasy XIV - Acorna Starfall - Ragnarok (EU Legacy)

Valentine's Day: I don't need some commercialized holiday for my significant other to be forced to be romantic to me and buy me shit because of it when he can and is romantic to me all the time!
Black Friday: If I want a sale or a sweet deal on something, I'm not going to waste all day camped out or getting plowed down by idiots and crowds for that. Fuck that.I don't get paid enough to kiss your a**! -Groezig 5/31/08

Nice to see that my least favorite and most mocked holiday is tied for the lead.
For those wondering which one I'm referring to, let me just say that I don't work retail, and never have. Next question.
