Today is for babbling and for celebrating babblers. While a babbler is a term that can be ascribed to someone who seems to talk nonstop about nothing, it can also apply to a baby making noise who is in the process of learning how to talk. Another name for a babbler is a blatherskite. We could try to describe this holiday in more depth, but then we would just be babbling, because there really isn't much more to say. But to go on would be fitting, though, wouldn't it? We just love babbling about holidays anyway. Celebrate the day by babbling to yourself or by babbling to others, either by talking continuously about nothing or by babbling like a baby, in incoherent sounds. You could even babble along with a baby. Tell any notorious blatherskites who you know that it is Babbling Day.

National FRUMP Day is a day to be a frugal, responsible, unpretentious, and mature person. It is also a day to honor those who exemplify these characteristics in their lives. To be frugal is to be prudent, thrifty, or economical in use of things, resources, or money. To be responsible is to be reliable and accountable, and to have the capacity to make moral decisions and to carry out obligations. To be unpretentious is to be modest, while not being showy or ostentatious. Finally, to be mature is to be developed in the mind in such a way as to make sound judgments like someone who has experience. When you are frugal you will be able to focus on the things that really matter in life. When you are responsible you won't have to worry as much. When you are unpretentious you will be able to listen more to others and get their perspective. When you are more mature you will better be able to make decisions that impact you and those around you.

You've probably heard the phrase, "There is no such thing as a stupid question." It is said in order to encourage people to ask questions they have been reluctant to ask because they themselves perceive them to be stupid. Chances are, if the questions are asked, they do end up sounding pretty stupid. People often laugh at those who ask the questions, and the inquirer feels embarrassed. Well, the embarrassment melts away today, and the questions are asked freely because it is Ask a Stupid Question Day. Celebrate the day by asking as many stupid questions as you want, without worrying if people are judging you. Although the day is most celebrated in the classroom, it doesn't exclusively have to be celebrated there, and you can ask your stupid question or questions anywhere you'd like. If after asking your questions people think they are stupid, just tell them that it is Ask a Stupid Question Day and it was more appropriate to ask the question than to not ask it.
