People Wonder About Weird National Holidays

By Jerri Perry


Every person in Georgia knows that Confederate's Day is one of the weird national holidays. Some people do not care what this date stands for since they just want to take a day off with pay. There are many other strange dates floating around the world that people do not know about. Hug A GI Day, Friendship Day, Hug A Newsman Day, Clean Up Your Room Day, Lazy Day and Tell A Lie Day all make this unusual list.

After the Christmas holidays people are usually stuck with many unwanted fruitcakes in their refrigerators. This is the time that they will toss out this very nasty food item. Instead of throwing the cake into the garbage can many individuals will gather with their family and friends to throw it around like a football. These humans will also see which person can throw this nutty cake the fastest. This event usually happens on January 3rd.

On January 4th people really look forward to National Trivia Day. This is one date that really can test someone's knowledge about television, history, art and a whole host of other subjects. Someone can really let others know how smart they are when it comes to events that are going on all over the planet. Even the dumbest person on Earth can join in on this fun and exciting game.

Women everywhere really go crazy on January 8th since this is Male Watcher's Day. These ladies can really go down to any construction site in town and stare at the many men who are working there. If a woman is very bold she can ask on of these strong men to marry her. This has happened many times in the past but many of the guys never took these gals serious.

Everyone will be able to find a true friend on Friendship Day. The most quiet person on Earth will find the courage to talk to complete strangers during this time. Sometimes the friendships will last for a long time if everyone involved is sincere.

They can spend the early part of August delivering food to homeless people or playing checkers with lonely senior citizens. Whatever a person does on this date they should try to do during the entire year.

Military people really love it when someone gives them a good hug. These people are always putting their lives in danger for their fellow man. On March 4th individuals will take the time to shower them with gifts and acts of deep affection. Unfortunately not everyone is able to give them the kind of respect that they deserve and this is very sad. During the Vietnam War people would often spit on them when they returned to America. Hug A GI Day is one day that should happen in all parts of this world.

Tell A Lie Day is one of the weird national holidays that is on some calendars. This day allows people to really stretch the truth to others. At times people will have a contest in which everyone has the chance to make up a thrilling tale that will have everyone on the edge of their seat. All of these lies are only told on this particular day. The contest winners will surely collect a big prize for their hysterical and unusual stories.
