Let's admit it, some of our federal holidays are stupid.* Columbus Day? A little antiquated. Presidents' Day? They're already the POTUS, they don't need more aggrandizement. MLK Day?** The list goes on and on. At the same time, federal holidays are loving awesome because they're free days off from work.*** So let's create some new federal holidays to celebrate; hopefully they'll be a little more relevant in these trying times. Here are my ideas so far: April 20 - Free Day April 29 - Rodney King Day (a/k/a Riot Day) September 11 - National Muslim Awareness Day December 12 - Second Amendment Day**** I'm open to suggestions before submitting them to my local senator though, so let me know your ideas for new holidays. *This thread takes place in Trump's AmericaTM. All foreigners please get out. **My best friend is black. ***Sorry service industry folks. FYI, I'm drinking a mimosa in my boxers as I type this stupid post on this stupid website on this stupid federal holiday  **** Normal school schedules apply.

I love federal holidays because they are paid for by people who do not get those days off.

All federal holidays are stupid. What's the point of celebrating a day where you can't make as much money?

i remember in school we spent as much time on kwaanza as we did on hannukah and after literally never meeting a single person who took it seriously and also learning that the nation of islam makes mormonism look sane in their core beliefs i gotta say who the gently caress made that decision

V.I. Lenin Day (commemorate the Cold War type of thing) Captain Picard Day (official recognition) Stalin Day (he helped us beat the Nazis after all!) Paul Verhoeven Appreciation WEEK (this requires a week, dude brought us Robocop, Total Recall AND Starship Troopers for fucks sake!)

Labor Day should be balanced out by a Capitalist Day where everyone has to work twice as many hours. It's only fair.

In 100% seriousness, we should implement a holiday for ever 3rd Friday of the month.

Whatever they go for, we could use one in March, April, June, and August. Those months seem so long with no holidays

Just have normal holidays with corporate sponsorship. This Labor Day brought to you by Applebees. I'm not sure if the Applebees employees would get the day off, though. not a chance.

Every President's Birthday should be a national holiday. Second Amendment Day? A-OK by me. National Dog Day: Celebrate Dogges Everywhere!
