Today's Holidays

Celebrate the weird stuff. We do.

Holiday #1 of 4

Viral Video Day

Viral Video Day is the annual reminder that the internet runs on two fuels: attention and bad decisions filmed in landscape by someone who swears they “didn’t even know it was recording.” It’s a holiday where we pretend the algorithm is a meritocracy, then sacrifice our dignity to it like it’s a bonfire and we’re cold. You scroll, you laugh, you cringe, you share it “ironically,” and congratulations—you’ve joined the unpaid marketing team. Don’t worry, we’re not here to judge; we’re here to take notes, because tomorrow you’ll deny you ever watched any of it and your phone will testify against you.
