Why not 13 months of 28 days each, plus New Years Day as an extra?
because I never realized that would work. It was easier to think about how close 365 is to the round number 360 which was a nice round ration for 30. 13 28day months are amazing and we could still go with 7 day weeks and have all the days line up perfectly. Every monday is the 1st, 8th, 15th, and 23rd of every month. the 30 day thing I figure we go to a 6 day week. I love it. Of course idiots will get all obsesive about a 13th month.
If we make the 1st a Sunday, then we can have 13 Friday the 13ths every year for idiots to obsess over :)
If history has taught us anything, it's that some places would start with Sunday, and others would start with Monday. There would be no benefit to starting on different days, but that wouldn't fuckin stop us.
oooh. I would miss that. I am one who like to do a nice horror movie marathon on them but man once a month. Im not quite that much a horror fan.
Imagine you're born on a Monday. Every birthday will be a Monday :(
