Slap Day is celebrated on February 15, immediately following Valentine's Day. It is part of the anti-Valentine's week, which includes days like Breakup Day and Kick Day. The day gained popularity as a way for singles or those disillusioned by Valentine's Day to humorously express their feelings.
Slap Day is not meant to promote violence but rather serves as a lighthearted way to release frustration or mock the commercialisation of Valentine's Day.
- "Happy Slap Day! Time to slap away all those unrealistic romantic expectations and embrace the single life with open arms...or hands!"
- "Who needs roses when you have a good ol' slap to wake you up from the Valentine's Day dream? Happy Slap Day!"
- "To all the singles out there, remember, a slap a day keeps the heartaches away! Happy Slap Day!"
