Remember, remember, the Fifth of November

Gunpowder treason and plot

I see no reason why gunpowder treason

Should ever be forgot.

Guy Fawkes? I think setting off explosions makes about as much sense as making green bagels on St. Patrick's Day. I mean, bagels? Can't get more Irish than that...

I have given up trying to understand people and I hand wave everything now.

As for other celebrations that make total sense, the Rat Race is a relatively new celebration that originated in the early 20th century and takes place on January 15th. No one knows why January but w/e. Rat Race includes explosions, fireworks, green Jello "brains" and tons of cheese. And drinking. Lots and lots of drinking.

As for the actual racing, the rats are separated into pairs with one leg tied to the other and given teeny burlap sacks to run in. They are then thrown in a maze/box thingy and timed. The winners are given green cheese bits since the moon is made of green cheese. It's all true, I swear!
