光棍儿节快乐!Happy Singles Day! [And Happy Pocky Day!]

Today in China, it's 光棍儿节!AKA Singles Day! If you're single, this is the holiday for you! Every year 11/11 is Singles Day, because each 1 looks like a single person...or something like that. There's not really a specific way to celebrate this holiday, but people like to go to bars to sulk in their single-status sadness. And there's a Japanese restaurant that gives out free food!

In Korea, 11/11 is Pocky Day! Because the 1s look like pocky. It's pretty much like Korean Valentine's Day; boys give pocky to the girls they like and girls give pocky to the boys the like. Or just friends give their friends pocky~
