National Absurdity Day
National Absurdity Day reigns supreme on November 20th. Oddness and strangeness take over.. We're not sure why, but it does.
Strange events have marked the calendar throughout history.. People fly today. It may seem absurd to fly your child across the country by plane, but people do. There's a process, attendants, an adult on the other side of the world, and a precious box is waiting to retrieve the precious box. When the postal service first began in 1913, children under the shipping weights were sent around the world by parcel delivery. Some babies were sent off to Grandma's house, but some were sold off to Grandma's house, others for as little as 15 cents more insurance.
This day was established as a day to recall and note some of the completely off-the-wall and bizarre activities in history, in our world, and in our lives.
Absurdity Day is also a day to have fun and do crazy, zany, and bizarre stuff.. Use the day to reveal the silly antics embedded within them.. You should do things you've been wanting to do that make absolutely no sense at all, and it'll be fine because you're commemorating this National Day.
