(23,732 posts)International Talk Like a Pirate Day is a parodic holiday created in 1995 by John Baur and Mark Summers of Albany, Oregon,[1] who proclaimed September 19 each year as the day when everyone in the world should talk like a pirate (that is, in English with a stereotypical West Country accent).[2] It has since been adopted by the Pastafarianism movement.[3]
- wikipedia has everything!
Instead of answering your phone with "Hello", you'd say, "Avast!"
If I were being more serious, I'd pick the birthday of a famous scientist - maybe Darwin Day on Feb 12

(1,049 posts)People could spend the day with their pets. We could have a service day for shelters where people would help animals be adopted, spend the day with animals, etc. We could clean up the environment for the wild animals. I know we have Earth Day, but I think we should have a day just for the animals where they are the focus.
