Opposite Day*

Notes:

  • Source: This isn’t happiness
  • *Opposite Day is an unofficial holiday, that is generally observed whenever it is declared, where every action is modified so that meaning is negated. It is usually observed among children, and rarely lasts an entire day. Once Opposite Day is declared, statements mean the opposite of what they usually mean.

  1. I’ve always been conflicted by “Opposite Day” declarations … if it’s “Opposite Day” shouldn’t everything mean the opposite of what Opposite Day requires? So, then if it’s truly Opposite Day, it’s the opposite of opposite, which is the same as ever. Not nearly as fun, and I think I hurt my brain writing this! 🙂

      1. I married, raised 3 children, worked for many years and wrote in my spare time. Don’t ask me how I ever had spare time but it was mostly in the wee hours of the morning. I sent a few stories to magazines but they always got rejected. I continued to write but never sent anything in again. I wrote because I loved it. Then I retired, my children all finished University, got married and started families. I had plenty of time on my hands and a computer so I wrote, and I still write. I write because I love it, and that’s good enough for me. I will probably will never make much money at it, but a few things were published and my words are out there forever even when I’m gone. I’m happy. :o)

  2. The definition has a good spin, and I don’t mean it in the sense of the Opposite Day. You declared it yesterday and even if that is the opposite of today, I assume it has expired.

  3. Ohhhh. This really makes me happy. I love Calvin & Hobbes. I really do! One of my favorite characters. Thank you so much, David, for a loud laughing moment and a big grin on my face, while I’m sitting at my desk on a rainy Sunday afternoon and checking a package (feels like HUNDREDS) of homeworks.
