    We need more holidays! There are lots of fun alternative holidays out there like the Towel Day, Software Freedom Day, Pi Day and the wounderful International Talk Like a Pirate Day :thumbup:

    What are your favorite geek/alternative holidays? Do you have any ideas for new ones? I think you should do something special on the leap day, like leap from things or something...

    Well, there's the Day of the Ninja on the 5th of December. It's not exactly what you asked for, but it's still something... :)

    Wow darkone, you must be really old then... Like a fossil or something... :p

    There are a few animal-themed holidays like Monkey Day and Mole Day. What animal-themed holiday you you like to see? I'd like the Manatee Day :D

    ... Wouldn't it just be the same thing over and over though? Someone says hi and than you say hi and they say hi then you say hi etc.

    I was thinking more of the classic brother-sister relationship where one person copies the other, but your idea works as well.

    no... no it doesn't >.> That's what we were saying. Nothing would get done you'd just sit there saying the same thing over and over and over...... pass out from boredom
