Lunar New Year, Groundhog Day, Mardi Gras, etc.
Considering the time difference, Itās not too early to start with the well wishes for the new year:
Seriously?
So theyād better not celebrate anything from Canada, the U.S., Australia, or NZ then, because our language and culture is based heavily off of British influence.
China is not the only country that celebrates the lunar new yearā¦itās just the biggest.
Think of Carnivale, and Mardi Gras, Karneval/Fasching: you wouldnāt plan a spring program with the Germans and call it āMardi Grasā or with the Cajuns in NOLA and call it āCarnivaleā, right?
Perhaps the outraged Chinese patriots thought that āKorean Lunar New Yearā meant that Korea was claiming exclusive ownership of Lunar New Year.
Which should only be celebrated in Mobile, AL, in the western hemisphere, if we want to be original about it.
ETA: tpyo
ā¦ not a news story, just a listicle, but has photos
AND ā¦ the most absurd of all spring holidays
What? Why??
St. Padraig was a fan of big savings? I mean, he did āsaveā the whole place for Jesusā¦ Except snakesā¦ he didnāt save snakesā¦
But really American business never saw an excuse for a sale that they didnāt likeā¦ The saint day for an Irish saintā¦ half-off mattresses!!!
Those are the best ever.
