Meaning
This reads as a complaint about how commercial rituals crowd each other and turn affection into a scheduling problem. The joke points to a culture that treats buying gifts as common sense, even while mocking it, and it lands in any conversation about holiday pressure, retail overload, or the odd logic of dating customs.
