In case Groundhog Day and Valentine’s Day aren’t enough holidays for you — or your need more excuses to call off work — here are 17 off-beat holidays you can celebrate this month.
Medjool Date Day
February 4
Reportedly the most labor intensive to grow and harvest, the people that farm these delicious little dates deserve their own holiday. Work hard, play hard!
Working Naked Day
February 5
The perfect holiday for getting fired, arrested, and ending up on a list that requires you to tell the neighborhood that you’re moving in.
Weatherperson’s Day
February 5
With the recent trend of hot female weatherperson’s, I think this is a holiday that we can all celebrate.
Dump your “Significant Jerk” Week
February 7
With Valentine’s Day usually being a pretty big party night for singles, this holiday comes just in time.
Read in the bathtub day
February 9
If you aren’t one of those people that enjoy taking baths, you can modify this to read on bath salts day.
Pro Sports Wives Day
February 11
The day in which you’re reminded about your lack of money, abs, and models
Satisfied Staying Single Day
February 11
Also known as “I’m perfectly happy sitting at home with a box of wine, Avatar on DVD, and my cats” Day
Get A Different Name Day
February 13
For people who are ashamed to wear name tags
My Way Day
February 17
The day meant to celebrate the saying, “My way or the highway.” You’re suppose to do whatever you want to do on this day, so treat yo self!
Hoodie-Hoo Day
February 20
This holiday is literally for people who live in the Northern Hemisphere who go outside at high noon, wave their hands in the air, and yell “Hoodie-Hoo.” It’s funny now until we discover it’s a cult and they successfully bring Hoodie-Hoo the eater of worlds to our dimension.
Curling Is Cool Day
February 23
A holiday we don’t need. Everyone knows how cool curling is.
Single-Tasking Day
February 23
You’re supposed to focus on one task at a time and avoid multitasking. Not sure which category pornhub falls under.
Gregorian Calendar Day
February 24
The day you’re suppose to celebrate having days to celebrate.
National Chili Day
February 25
The day you’re either celebrating a delicious Spanish food or 2 for 1 margaritas.
For Pete’s Sake Day
February 26
The day in which you’re suppose to switch an offensive word or phrase with something more acceptable by Disney channel standards.
World Sword Swallowers Day
February 27
I think we can all agree on this one.
National Tooth Fairy Day
February 28
She works year round, sneaking into children rooms at night and hiding enough money for 10 minutes of street side parking. She deserves a day off.
