Let’s get something straight: if your relationship can survive one of you doing the Chicken Dance in public, it can probably survive anything. Today is National Dance Like a Chicken Day, and while that might sound like just another excuse to be ridiculous (and it is), there’s a surprisingly deep message hiding under all those flappy wings and awkward squats: sometimes, the best thing you can do for your relationship is stop taking yourself so seriously. Wait… What Is This Day Even? It’s...

Let’s be real—Mother’s Day can be a beautiful celebration, but it can also be complicated. Not everyone has a traditional mom in their life. Some have two moms, some have none. Some are raised by dads, grandparents, foster parents, or chosen family. Some are grieving, some are healing, and some are just trying to figure it all out. So this year, let’s expand the definition of “mothering.” Let’s honor: • The dads who double as moms. • The grandparents raising grandkids. • The...

Happy National Golf Day! Whether you’re a seasoned pro or someone who thinks a “birdie” is just a cute little tweeter, today is your day to swing into action and celebrate the sport that has captivated hearts (and occasionally lost balls) for centuries. A Brief Stroll Down the Fairway of History Golf, as we know it, has its roots in 15th-century Scotland. Back then, players used wooden clubs to hit pebbles around sand dunes—a far cry from today’s high-tech equipment and manicured...

Every year on May 9th, we gather together—not in parades, not in candlelight vigils—but quietly by our dryers, to honor the one true mystery that has plagued humankind for generations: Where the hell do all the socks go? Yes, friends, it’s National Lost Sock Memorial Day, a sacred time to reflect on the unmatched, the disappeared, and the ones cruelly abandoned in laundry baskets across America. A Day of Mourning (and Mismatching) Let’s face it, we’ve all been victims. You go into the...

Ah yes, Star Wars Day—the one magical day a year where fully grown adults wield plastic lightsabers in Target parking lots and whisper, “I am your father” to their dog. That’s right… it’s May the Fourth, baby! Whether you’re a die-hard fan who owns Jedi robes in every color or you still confuse Chewbacca with a large emotional support dog, today is your day to shine like the twin suns of Tatooine. Let’s go ahead and address the big glowing Death Star in the room: Why May the...

Well, butter my biscuit and slap a mint leaf on it—it’s Kentucky Derby Day! That glorious time of year when we pretend to know things about horse racing, suddenly develop strong opinions about jockeys, and consider wearing a hat large enough to double as patio furniture. Let’s be honest. Most of us don’t care which horse is the fastest. We just want an excuse to yell “GO, BABY, GO!” at a screen for 2 minutes and then return to sipping our suspiciously strong mint juleps like we’re...
National Day · May 02, 2025
Let’s be honest — pants are a scam. They squeeze us, restrict us, and worst of all, they have buttons. Who invited buttons to the party anyway? That’s why National No Pants Day exists — to liberate your lower half and finally give your thighs the breeze they’ve been begging for. Celebrated every first Friday of May, this glorious day encourages us to ditch the denim, burn the khakis (figuratively… please don’t actually start fires), and free ourselves from the tyranny of zippers....

Gather ’round, friends, because it’s May Day — the holiday that sounds like a distress call but is really just an excuse to dance around a pole and pretend we’re all carefree woodland fairies with excellent ribbon skills. So what is May Day, really? Short answer: Chaos. Long answer: It’s an ancient festival of spring, fertility, and spontaneous public frolicking. Picture flower crowns, barefoot dancing, and people twirling around a tall pole like it’s 500 B.C. and Instagram...
National Day · April 30, 2025
Today we roll out the red carpet for a true legend: Mr. Potato Head! Yes, April 30th is National Mr. Potato Head Day — a day to honor the most famous potato in the world who, let’s be honest, has had more wardrobe changes than a Broadway musical. First introduced in 1952, Mr. Potato Head quickly became a household name. Back then, kids actually used real potatoes to build their masterpieces. (Talk about playing with your food!) Eventually, the world decided maybe toy potatoes were less…...
