dumbest fake holiday ever
Ye be entitled to your opinion matey. Jus’ so long as ye recognize it as such.
Yard arm, anyone? Yard Arm!!
oye, pirates we got already…
Dumber than Possum Day?
Well, maybe monkey…but it does raise a point:
How many Hallmark cards need to be printed and/or sold before
a holiday becomes real?
(or does it need to be loved by a child, like the Velveteen Rabbit?)
oh, and one more thing…
Here’s my 16 yo kid’s response to the profile pic on my facebook page* which is the same one as <----- this current avatar:
Who would want to skip a “holiday” which could elicit this type of response?
*yes, facebook. It’s been useful for communicating with distant kids and actual adult friends from my past, from Ohio to Oman.
I’m all for pushing demographics anyway, even if it makes me creepy!
Ooooooh! Embarassing your kids? What’s a Mother for?! Enjoy it, Em, she’s just jealous. You’re still our pin-up girl!

Gabe:you look really creepy and old in that pic…like all the young hip stuff around you is a serious contrast to you…really just makes you look even older then you are…shiver ..that really is creepy
OK, well, here’s the thing. Those kids wouldn’t even have hips (or any other body parts) if it wasn’t for us pityable old folks. Feckin’ deal with it. Arghhh!

I agree with monkey.
If anyone speaks to me like a pirate on that day, I will beat them about the head with a military-issue daikon.
It was funny the first time, but now it’s like a guy who sits down next to you in a pub and starts quoting the parrot sketch.
I propose having a ‘If You Talk Like Pirate on The Talk Like a Pirate Day Passing Strangers can Have One Free Punch Day’
