I see what you did there. :)

But...seriously... National Beheading Day? Who thinks of a holiday like that?!
[/quote]

[b]...Yeah I stopped reading there. :wacko: I was hoping for some funny new holidays I didn't know about, like National Nude Day, but not something like that.

What are creepy holidays doing in my September? :blink:

I knew that the 19th was Talk Like a Pirate day, but I didn't know about the pudding or the women's friendship part. Do you think that is friendship between women? Or friendship from a woman regardless who the friend is? I'm wondering if that's a girl's only holiday or not I guess.

Also I hope no one gets fired on the 5th! XD[/b] Edited by Lilt

[b]No, I think me staying away from any gutters probably killed it. :suave: Then I accidentally fell into one after reading that.

I just did some research though and it turns out that Women's Friendship Day is a holiday made by women for women. So any girls reading this, say hi or give a gift to your girlfriends! :biggrin:

I'll probably bake something and throw a sleepover or something.[/b] Edited by Lilt
