You missed the most important one: World Backup Day. March 31 is the day everyone should remember to FINALLY back up their data. All of us in IT are sick of people who come crying to us when lose all of their stuff after ignoring us telling them over and over again to back up their shit..

Conservatives are oppressed by other holidays. Conservatives are oppressed by other belief systems. Conservatives are oppressed by people who believe in other deities, or no deities at all. Conservatives are oppressed by anything that does not center them or acknowledge they are the Best and Only One True Right whatever-it-is. Conservatives are oppressed by anything that reminds them there is ANYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD besides conservatives.

Really sounds like a miserable way to live.

Ta, Robyn. Conservatives love to ruin holidays. They'll probably be whining about the eclipse next Monday, too.

Not that I'm a fan of religious iconography or anything, but that's a pretty good way to reproduce a shrine with what you might call "everyday household items." I mean, that tub's just gonna get hauled off to a dump somewhere otherwise, why not paint it and stick an inexpensive, reasonably well-painted concrete statue of the VM in there and make something that looks a lot like the shrines outside a Catholic church, assuming you lean that way?

Absolutely agree, sensible recycling I'd say.

César Chávez Day, not Cesar Chavez Day

It's fairly conventional to drop accent marks when using names in English. Also umlauts in German (e.g. der Fuhrer instead of der Führer, place names like Nürnberg and München are anglicized to Nuremberg and Munich). Not saying I like it!

I haz a sad. The War on Christmas (TM) just isn't the same without O'Really harping about it,

We're taking up a collection to put up a monument so he'll never be forgotten.

They will surely beshit themselves when they find out that Easter next year is on 4/20. *cough*

JCfromNC's avatar

I kind of doubt they will, unless weed has become the Outrage of the Week by then. I don't think 4/20 is going to be all that much on their radar, and since they're not going around calling it the Devil's Weed or anything like that, they're not going to be as likely to convince themselves it's a slap in the face to them.

If Biden really wanted to troll them, he'd sent out a shout for National 4/20 Day.

"Just a general list of people [he] hated and dreamt of discriminating against?" No, I've read a book with that description, it's called "My Struggle".

"which itself definitely did not replace a pagan holiday celebrating the spring equinox and the goddess Eostre or Ostara,""

Yes. You're right. It didn't. That's a myth that liberals like to pass around to "stick it to the Christians". But it's about as true as any of that glurge about Darwin recanting on his deathbed.

Without any actual policies, what else could Republicans do besides feed the persecution complex of their supporters?

Daniel O'Riordan's avatar

They do have a policy. Make Angry Whites First Again.

MAWFA.

Just wait until next year when Easter falls on 4/20 (Happy legal Weed and/or Adolf Hitler's Birthday)

You could season the Easter Ham with the weed! Talk about getting BAKED!

A transgender farm worker and an anesthesiologist walked into a bar near the Eiffel Tower on Easter and ordered eat clams on the half shell with a side of fries. They started dancing to the tune of Terri's Song. There were no medievalists to hug.

Daniel O'Riordan's avatar

I hate stories with sad endings.

skinnercitycyclist's avatar

The mother WAS a medievalist!

Daniel O'Riordan's avatar

And, just like that, my life is wonderful again.

Oh wait. Trump's still free.

I was bored at my sister's house after lunch and found The Greatest Story Ever Told on TCM. BiL and I recounted how we both watched the Ten Commandments the night before and he said "when your sister gets back (from her walk), she's gonna put the kibosh on you watching this". Apparently her atheism has taken root deeply LOL.

thephantomcheese's avatar

What, no love for Anne Baxter?

Emil Muz's avatar

My sister has always been a heathen in her own way.

I told her she needed some churchin' up for her own good.
