Superbowl Monday

Ever since my Junior year (high school) AP Chemistry teacher obstinately gave us a test the day after the Superbowl, I have strongly advocated Superbowl Monday becoming a national holiday. Considering about 1/3 of the entire country watch this game, I think it's only fitting to have a national day of rest following dedicated to the event. If you disagree with me, you're a terrorist.


Does this look like a productive worker to you? No. It's Superbowl Monday.

As someone who spent half the game coordinating with grad school students (who apparently weren't watching themselves) and now feels completely unprepared for class today, I agree with this. Once your reign of terror begins, I will support this decree.

My reign of terror will come swiftly and terribly. A pox on those who stand before me.

Brice Lord for president in 2020!

I also support this, both passively and as a theoretical construct. I dropped a class earlier this semester to protest it's midterm the day after the Superbowl, and I'll certainly cast my vote in any sham-single-party-uncontested-election for the dictator who boasts wildly of his ability to deliver such a national party holiday.
