Feel that cool breeze? It's Peppermint Patty Day!

  Wait, not that Peppermint Patty. These peppermint patties:   Any other mint fans here? I know there's a new dark chocolate mint Kit-Kat flavor...    When it comes to peppermint...

I just wonder why just having Mon Day, Tues Day, Wednes Day... et. al. was never special enough.

Every day has to have some kind of commercial marketing, product, or other concept promoted as a gimmick and it's gotten to the point where there are more gimmicks than days in the year.

 

Edit: Don't mind me, I've been in an especially cynical way this week.

    Oh, those were the days.

     

    Moon's day, we ate moon pies

    Tiu's day, we made war 
    Woden's day,  we celebrated one-eyed, long-bearded wanderers

    Thor's day, we bought hammers

    Freya's day, we made war AND love

    Saturn's day, we celebrated the crops

    Sun's day, we went to the beach

     

    It was a simpler time.
