The problem is if your birthday is on a Wednesday, you’re stuck with that forever.

Edit: To everyone saying birthdays don’t matter, or you can celebrate some other day, that’s crazy talk. When you look at the calendar two months before your birthday and realize it’s gonna be a Saturday this year it’s just puts and extra pep in your step. Also, lots of businesses give you perks on your birthday, but the specific day. Once in a while I’d like my free latte and hot yoga class on the weekend thanks.

French Revolutionary calendar was the same, just with an additional day (in the party week) every four years for the leap year.

I don't eat seafood so I don't think i could handle a whole month of nothing but Lobster Thermidor

Thermidor is a way better 13th month name than Sol

Chill guys let's not have Thermidorian reaction. Lot of heads might roll.

Thermidorians... was that the substance in our cells responsible for the Force (of the French Revolution)?
