Today’s Find an Evergreen Day. Bet You Didn’t Know That, Did You?

A group called Holiday Cover Up is encouraging us to celebrate every day of the year by revealing holidays we don’t know about.

The logic: holidays were parsed out by greeting card companies in order to encourage productivity. “Calendars are propaganda!” snarls founder and author Kevin Goodson.

See video here. We think it’s pretty good. Plus, you gotta love the idea behind Pi Approximation Day.

We also got a new word for the Ad-Jive dictionary: “holidology”!

Feeling festive? Get Holiday-a-Day widgets and other web 2.0 crap. If you’re lazy like us, you can just celebrate your unbirthday, which takes place 364 days a year. Thank goodness the Mad Hatter and the March Hare weren’t holiday perfectionists.

I had three close friends in my twenties and by my sixties they were all gone — not dead, just scattered by careers and kids and moves — and I’m sitting here realizing I never learned how to make new ones because I thought the first ones would last forever

I’m 63 and strangers regularly guess I’m in my early fifties — but the real reason isn’t skincare or genetics, it’s that I stopped performing a version of aging that was making me exhausted and bitter

Behavioral scientists found that the generation gap between boomers and millennials isn’t actually about values. It’s about emotional dialect. Both generations care deeply about family, loyalty, and hard work, but they express it in languages so different that love from one side registers as control or indifference on the other
