Happy "OK" Friday

Good Friday, is the Friday preceding Easter Sunday. It commemorates the crucifixion and death of Jesus at Calvary. Apparently, that is today. I have to ask the question. What's so good about it? If your Catholic and need to recognize that date that your "saviour" was murdered, why for fucks sake would you call it "good"? I mean really shouldn't it be "not so good Friday" or "this sucks Friday"? What half witted apostle or convertee said "Hey!!!! It's Friday, the weather is great, the Romans haven't fucked with me today, and Jesus is dead. Shit two out of three ain't bad. All in all it's a pretty good Friday.


Frankly, the title is a bit out dated. Personally I think most Fridays are good. Hell, if the holidays fall right and create a three or four day weekend, then you have a good Thursday and or good Monday. Come to think of it, I was in Vegas once and had a good Wednesday. . . .but that's another story.


So before I get to far off track, here's my thought.


"Pope guy, you need to make a few changes within your organization. Name your days more accurately".


  1. Don't eat meat day

  2. Get a spot on your head day

  3. Give up something you like week

  4. Find the egg day

  5. Give shit away day

  6. Miss football day

Be honest, call it like it is. Once you get that done we can work on your N.M.B.L.A problem. Until then, best of luck. Excuse me, I have a rib eye to cook. . .

Call a spade a spade? That would hurt the membership drive for the little boys.

"Give shit away day" - that's a much better name for it!

Yeah, I think the Pope needs to work on a whole lot of other shit before he gets around to better names.

Lifer: I call a spade a shovel. I'd rather hurt the boy memership drive than the boys.

Avitale: "Get cool shit day" was also in the running.

C Ride: I agree, have you seen the shit they make that dude wear?

Don't forget

"stare across the table at your dysfunctional family day,"

not to be confused with

"stare across the table at your dysfunctional, carol singing family day."

Although, I can understand the confusion.

great post, jake.

That was awesome. I nearly woke up my wife laughing after reading that. Nice one.
