Whats your favorite holiday, and why is it your favorite?
What holiday do you hate the most, and why?
And what holidays should no longer exist?
I hate almost all holidays.
My favorite holiday was my birthday until I turned 22. And yes, it's a holiday. It's a week long celebration. It should be nationalized.
However, when I turned 22. I realized that my birthday makes me sad. I still, however, believe it should become a national holiday. No mail delivered, bitches.
I like New Years.... and independence day. See: fire.
I hate pretty much everything else for the following reasons:
Xmas. I hate family get togethers. They're painful. You are forced to sit, confined to a small room with a bunch of people you'd rather avoid. Everyone plays nice, then goes back to their hotel rooms for the evening (out of town family) and badmouths everyone. It's shallow. Also, gift giving. For fucks sake. It seems like every time I turn around someone needs a gift. Someone needs me to buy something for them. It was especially lame with my ex. Having her birthday on xmas day. Had to buy two sets of gifts or I wasn't considerate. Wasn't a big deal, but it seems friends or family are always having birthdays... then xmas... then aniversarys... and all that shit.
Fuck that.
MLK Jr.s Birthday.
Woohoo! So what if he lead some movement? His birthday gets the mailmen off duty but mine doesn't? Fuck that.
Black History Month.
lol. What a concept. Here's one month. The other 11 are White history months.
Washingtons B-day. Another example of some cunt getting a holiday and not me.
Memorial day. Isn't like every day memorial day anymore? I mean, I see bumper stickers on cars asking me to remember and thank people. I've done my part. (Sorry vets... lol).
Labor day:
What the fuck is that about?
Columbus day.
Do I need to even go into why that is such a bullshit holiday?
Veterans day: See memorial day.
Thanksgiving: See xmas.
Although the last two years I've gone to Sirus's folks house for turkey day... it's fucking awesome... so I might be moving t-day up to like soon.
And here's some other shit:
- Groundhog Day, February 2
Bullshit. A fucking rodent gets a day... and I don't.
- Lincoln's Birthday, February 12.
Fuck you!
- Valentine's Day, February 14.
This one makes me vomit. Most suicides due to a holiday! GOGOGO! (ok maybe xmas is... but whatever)
- St. Patrick's Day, March 17.
Seriously?
- April Fools's Day, April 1.
LOLOLOL APRIL FOOLS GOT YOU WITH THE SAME PRANK EVERYONE ELSE GOT YOU WITH EACH AND EVERY YEAR LOLOLOLOLOL!
Yeah, this one has done a lot of good.
- Administrative Assistants' Day, which once upon a time was Secretaries' Day, is the Wednesday of the last full week of April (that is, the Wednesday before the last Saturday in April) since 1955; see this site for more information.
lol... gotta be joking me.
pffft
- Mothers' Day, second Sunday in May (36 USC Sec. 142).
Mothers day... ok. For 18 years this holiday was acceptable. Since I moved out at 18, I feel this holiday should be over. I mean seriously. I payed my dues. See: all the fucking presents for 18 years.
- Fathers' Day, third Sunday in June (36 USC Sec. 142a).\
See mothers day. Also see: all the fucking presents for 18 years that ended up in the basement in a box and never touched again.
- Parents' Day, fourth Sunday in July (36 USC Sec. 142c).
What the fuck? Luckily my folks divorced. I think that voids the joint holiday.
- Grandparents' Day, Sunday after Labor Day (36 USC Sec. 142b).
See mothers day
- United Nations Day, October 24.
Why we celebrate these useless cunts is beyond me.
BOO! Now give me free shit asshole or I'll egg your house.
Fuck holidays.
