Who Comes Up With These Holidays???

I recently did a little research for my blog and had an interesting observation: We have too many holidays!


Here are some of the unofficial holidays that are celebrated:



Milk Day.  I can only imagine a bunch of celebrators sitting around with bags of Oreo cookies.
World Laughter Day.  Shouldn’t every day be World Laughter Day?  (By the way, I’m trying to do my part here.)
Wikipedia Day.  This celebrates the collection of Internet falsities and lies until proven otherwise.
National Religious Freedom Day.  Now, if we could get a National Government Freedom Day, THAT would be great.
Data Privacy Day, but the Obama Administration is looking to scour this one from the list, like when Pharaoh removed all references of Moses’ name in ancient Egypt.
School Day Of Non-Violence And Peace.  What next, “Mom and Apple Pie Day”?)
DNA Day, observed by all the guys proven NOT to be the father on the Maury Povich Show.
Honesty Day.  Observed in all parts of our country except Washington, DC and any state capital.
International Surfing Day.  Not a biggie in Nepal.
Caps Lock Day.  Or, should I say “CAPS LOCK DAY”???
International Free Hugs Day.  Great idea, until you are arrested.
International Talk Like A Pirate Day.  This falls between  “International Scratch Your Nails On A Blackboard Day” and “Clip Your Nails In Public Day”.
Ask A Stupid Question Day.  September 28th.  That’s right, just one day.  Don’t ask.
National Day Of Listening.  For women this is the day after Thanksgiving.  For men, it is every day.
Buy Nothing Day.  For women, November 25-26.  For men, it is every day.  Again.

And no silly list would be complete without my favorite on December 23rd: FESTIVUS!!!  I’ve already aired my grievances.
