I remember my teacher boasting about the "fact" that only the people born in March are truly amazing. I said that January was awesome too. She said it again. So I replied with "But I was premature by two months.", which I was. 2011-07-14 22:21:00

Hey, what about people like me who are named April? That should make us instantly uber-amazing!

Well, he was great, until he became EVIL! I'm serious, everything good came from April. We have Good Friday, and Christmas wasn't actually in December, it was in April when Jesus was born. (Look it up!)

Don't let some idiot tell you otherwise!

EDIT: And April is a suitable name (see below). If you call someone March, they'll seem like a retard. (May and June follow as servants, so they pick up some leftover awesomness. That's why May is a better name than June.)

This is the most biased thread in General Chat so far.

It's obvious that August is the more superior month.

Lies. If that was true, then my brother would be instantly amzing, and we all know that's a lie. And besides, March is a superior month.

Should we rename this thread to "the month nazism thread"? 2011-07-16 17:16:00

April is the greatest month of all! It makes perfect sense, and this is an undeniable fact. Where are all my fellow April birthren? (see what I did there?) Come and defend April Greatness!2011-07-18 18:23:00

This...

I mean...

Like...

This absence of logic...

This has to be a joke... right?

Personally, if April brought us both Hitler AND RoneRanger... I'm kinda keen on the idea of wiping April off the calender.

That would solve everything, right? We can alter the space time continuum by changing a month's name, right? Eh, I'm not sure, this thread has kinda hurt the logic sensors in my brain :/

Removing is hard, but you can always rename it Brumary. 2011-07-18 18:52:00

You're all just biased.

I agree with this statement. I am a genius, you cannot deny this fact, and yet you think of REMOVING April? How does this make sense. And if you hate April so much, why would you reply to this thread? I'm here stating a plan fact, that isn't a joke, and yet I receive spam from a person teaching people how to spell evil?

APRIL IS AMAZING, CASE CLOSED, NO JOKE, NO SPAM, BLAH BLAH BLAH!

Likewise!

Scotchtober FTW!

Thought I'd propose a new calendar!

Seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years. The first few are all very accurately measured. A second is a second and it isn't going to change... it's always going to be 1 Mississippi. There are always 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour, 24 hours in a day and 7 days in a week. But when we get to months this precision disappears. A month is about 4 weeks. They range in length. 31 days? 30 days? 28? One in 48 of the darned things are 29 days long. That's chaos right there. Ridiculous.

We should sort that out. You should be able to define each unit in a precise number of the smaller unit so a month should be precisely 4 weeks. If we stuck with our existing 12 months that would mean the year would only be 336 days long and that won't work. Besides the planets don't work like that and we need the year to come down at around 365 days.

The solution is obvious: we need a 13th month. In this new precise 28 days per month system, 13 months would give us a year of 364 days. Much better.

Changing the months also gives us a chance to sort some other problems out. In olden days the first month of the year was March. Look at the months at the end of our year: September, October, November, December. They were obviously meant to be the seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth months. The sequence was even stronger because July and August were originally known as Quintilis and Sextilis before Julius Caesar and Augustus went and got all lah-di-da and had months named after themselves. What egos! The world we live in now, where Dec denotes the twelth month and Oct the tenth must surely offend any linguist. So let's take the opportunity provided by the introduction of a 13th months to sort that out.

I propose we go back to starting in March. I think we should teach those old Roman emperors a thing or two about humility by stripping them of their monthly honours and returning July and August to their former names. I've got no issue with January and February so I think they should just get moved to the other end of things. So the new calendar would start:
March, April, May, June, Quintilis, Sextilis, September, October, November, December, January, February and then the 13th month which could be called anything but for sake of argument let's call it Macnmenuary.

Now there's still a problem. If we just kept running 364 day years one after the other we'd soon fall out of sync because the planets are working to a 365.25 day year system. But this is easily dealt with. All you have to do is add in a pause before the new year begins. There's no reason why new year's day has to follow new year's eve immediately. We could have a day off first. A kind of intermission or drumroll building up to the start of the year.

That way, we'd all celebrate new year's eve on Sunday Macnmenuary 28th and the next day wouldn't be Monday and it wouldn't be March 1st. It would just be the intermission. In practical terms it would end up being a great day for a party. Nobody could go to work because it would never be part of the Monday to Friday working week or part of the weekend. It wouldn't be called anything other than The Intermission. "What are you doing for Intermission 2011?" people will ask. Of course, every fourth year, The Intermission will have to last 48 hours which isn't a problem because we just get a bigger and better party out of it. Only when The Intermission is over does the next day begin. And then we carry on as normal.

This would solve the problem currently experienced by February 29th babies who only have a real birthday every 4 years. An Intermission baby wouldn't have that problem because The Intermission happens every year. Sometimes it's a 24 hour Intermission and sometimes it's a 48 hour Intermission but it still happens. It doesn't have any other name... it's not a Monday or a Tuesday. It's not the 29th of anything, it's not in any month. It's just The Intermission and because it happens every year, so does your birthday.

How long is a month? 4 weeks. How long is a year? 364 days. Does one year follow directly from the last? No, there's an intermission. Problem solved.

Hm. That makes the mathemogoligcal sense.

But to do so would involve rewriting history to fit a new, more scientifically based calender. Which if the French Revolution gives us any hint as to waht would happen, our ideals would be corrupted as we decide democracy sucks and we need a go******** emperor. Or something. Wait, what were we talking about? This thread's stupidity is leaking into my brain :/

Thought I'd propose a new calendar!

This makes perfect sense. However this cannot happen purely because, you would need the whole world to comply to this, and the current arrangement of time has been known worldwide and the time is different all over the world. For example an Intermission Day would be different in England to an Intermission Day in China. In order for this to work, you would need an Intermission Day at the same time in the world, which would mean irregular timing in certain places in the world. However, this could apply in the future as the continents move slowly, so this calender you have proposed could be in function about 2500 years from now. No one knows (or will ever know, unless time travelling begins to exist) if this will or won't work in the future until time gets there.

It was a good suggestion.


Scotchtober FTW!

Don't you mean April FTW?
