No, your eyes do not deceive you. This is a leap year.
If you’re a man in a long term relationship and your girlfriend is wondering why you have not yet popped the question, run for the hills. Because according to Irish legend, this is the one day women can get down on bended knee and propose to YOU, mon ami.
So, this is the perfect opportunity to break up with your girlfriend before she blindsides you with a marriage proposal. Or, if you really want to get the point across that you have no intention of ever marrying her, this is a great time to fake your own death and move to Alaska to become a crab fisherman.
Deadliest catch as it were.
Either way it’s better than seeing your girlfriend down on bended knee for any reason other than an indecent proposal.
Oh, yeah. I went there.
