weird unofficial holidays

Oct 11, 2007 14:05

I'm looking for humorous internet holidays, things like International Talk Like A Pirate Day. I checked Wikipedia under unofficial holiday, unofficial observance, and geek holiday, but different people might have heard of different ones. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Try Googling "Weird Holidays."

Are you looking for a specific type/theme of holiday to work into your story?

There's Towel Day (or something like that) that is based on the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe.

Unofficially opposite to ITLaP Day is "Day of the Ninja" on December 5.

and according to my calendar, also the first day of Hanukkah. Ninjas+Hanukkah=confusion. ;)

Sinterklaas too. Jewish ninjas in the Netherlands will be in for a grand ol' time, I suspect.
