Honestly, where I live in New York City, you wouldn't even know it when it's Veterans Day other than the odd Canadian or Brit wearing a Remembrance Day pin. Maybe if you watch TV, but I don't. Being free of TV is quite liberating for this very reason. Anyway, I find Valentine's Day worse. :P

Alright but I watch sports so it is indeed obnoxious. Also sometimes I have to watch the local news, since there are not too many libertarian alternatives for local stuff.

Valentine's day is mostly stupid but can be fun sometimes. :O

Second the waterboarding ride. It'll be loads of fun and a genuinely on-topic way to thank our warriors. "All aboard the waterboard!"

And the facebook statuses are starting up..

I think the worst thus far are those from libertarians. "Even if you don't agree with the wars we should thank the troops."

I mean, should we thank politicians who genuinely believe they are doing good by increasing regulations?

how about a waterboarding setup where you have veterens pay you for the expirence, since it's not torture at all they ought to love to do it.

Veterans day is around the corner and we can be sure to hear about how they fought for our freedoms and general pro-state propaganda. Are there any tips anyone has on how to survive it? Besides shutting yourself in a closet that is.
