****THE OFFICIAL FRIDAY SILLINESS THREAD****

Posted on 11/16/2007 5:42:41 AM PST by Lucky9teen


November 16 is . . . . .

Button Day!

 

Button Day is a fun day to collect, use, and just enjoy buttons. Buttons come in all sorts of shapes, sizes, colors and designs. There is an amazingly endless variety of buttons for your collection.

But, wait a minute.... is that the meaning of this day!? Maybe, the purpose of this day is to wear buttons. You know, those diverse buttons that send a message for political purposes.   Or, ones that have funny sayings. Or, a button with a smiley face to cheer everyone up.


The origins of this day are unknown. So, we can't be certain to the real meaning of this day.

And, that could be a good thing. It means you can celebrate today in anyway you want. Here are some suggestions. I suspect you may have more.....

Button Collecting and Display Day - collect and display clothing buttons
Button Up Day- 'cuz it's cold outside!
Pushing Your Buttons Day - you're kidding me, aren't you!?
Belly Button Day - now, here's one that could be real fun
Belly Button Fuzz Day - it's amazing what you find in there.
Wear Buttons Day - skip the political buttons. My favorite is a Smiley button (show your "flair")

 


However you choose to celebrate, have a Happy Button Day!

Field report:

Went to the “Original Soupman” (yes, THAT place) in Birmingham, Michigan. Got a New England Clam Chowder for myself and Turkey Chili for me assistant. Got bread (nice!) and didn’t get myself thrown out. And the soup? I was stunned! Stunned by soup! I had to sit down, my knees buckled!

Oh, I misread the title. It thought it said "Get your butt on day."
