Day Day!

Gentlemen, and Ladies!

We here at the Society for the Prevention of Unnecessary and UnWarranted Inculcation of Needless Gimicks (SPUUWING) propose a novel idea that we hope will receive some level of popular support!

Day Day!

Yes, a day put aside as just a day. A day where we can wake up without having to strap on a Red Nose, or shave our heads, or grow a moustache, or phone our mothers (or fathers)! A day solely devoted to being just a mundane, workaday day.

We here at SPUUWING have nothing against causes, nothing at all. In fact, we support causes with gusto! However, it seems to us that every day is a Day somewhere around the world. If we do not act now to reserve just one day to be a normal day, who knows where we may end up? We are running out of days to be Days! Soon, we will have Half Days, then Quarter - the whole gamut of fractional Days in fact.

So, we propose to make today, the 10th of December, Day Day. Take it for yourself. Celebrate the fact that today, of all days, you can just go about your business. Show you care about our days by not having a Day today!

Have a nice Day!

James.

There appears to be something wrong with the calendar Lee - Thursday is the 10th Dec., not Friday.

As much as I would like to get behind your Day Day, I unfortunately cannot see spending any energy to wards supporting a day the insures I end up at work expending even more energy. I will instead spend my energy supporting the inception of any day that saves further energy by keeping me at home to celebrate something I don't care about.

I see, by tomorrow you mean the 6.66th i.e. yesterday and by 'won' you mean you very much enjoyed what i did to you...
I'm going back to last year to recalibrate LHC, you were supposed to be screaming from pain, not pleasure

So is SPUUWING pronounced like "spewing"?

:-)

Or is it spoo-ing?

Reminds me of when I worked at an off licence when I was at uni and we had an area manager who was not, shall we say, the sharpest tool in the box.

He came up with this great idea that he was going to rename all the roles and job titles and asked us at a staff meeting to make some suggestions.

I told him that all the shop floor workers should be called Assistant Region Sales Executives, which he though was a great idea, right up until the point when he worked out what the acronym would be....

I thought it was funny anyways! :-)

Damn! Did I miss Day Day? Actually, that's probably the only way to celebrate Day Day, without knowing it was any other kind of Day.

Can we propose other Days here? I vote for 'Oh De Doo Da' Day.

Of course! The more Days the better!
