hwangoFebruary 14th is only days away. Start preparing now, because it's one of the most important holidays of the year - Horned Lizard Day.
For those of us who find Valentine's Day an appallingly saccharine and pointless holiday based entirely on superficial expressions of fraudulent love, Horned Lizard Day provides an opportunity to disorient our friends and loved ones with cheerful comments about interesting reptiles. Are you tired of Valentine's Day's hopelessly tooth-rotting sentimentality? Sick of supporting the flower and candy industries with hollow gestures of false affection? Does the color pink send you into fits of psychotic rage? Then celebrate something worth celebrating - celebrate Horned Lizard Day!
I firmly believe that there is no better way to celebrate the 14th of February than with an animal that squirts blood from a sinus behind its eyes when threatened.
