“Clearly they are in hibernation caused by an over abundance of Thanksgiving cooking and the multiple days of delicious leftovers that lead to them going into a 2 day hibernation (food coma). No worries though, they'll be fine.”
“Well, I take it just from what is on the calendar. Britney Spears probably had something to do with it…. maybe she created the November calendar and forgot a couple days?”
“November 30th is having a midlife crisis and is suddenly really into time travel and wants to travel back to the time when he was dating April 1st. November 29th went off to try and talk some sense into 30th because of course you can't time travel. To 29ths shock November 30th has actually made a breakthrough and is traveling back to April 1st! 29th had no choice but to follow 30th through the wormhole to save the timeline! If 30th succeeds not only will we get a 13th month, but leap years will cease to exist! “
“Oh look a squirrel!”
“We are trying to conserve power by cutting back on 2 calendar days.”
“November was copied from February.”
“November was so sad that February has always had to "stand alone" that two days were sacrificed. Now they have each other's backs we need to re-write the rhyme.”
“Looks like they used February's calendar days for November.”
“29 and 30 went back to where it all started! In 1929, the Washington State Grange sent the very first initiative to the Legislature, to allow rural communities to form their own publicly owned utilities. In the 1930 election, the measure passed in a landslide. A few years later, Mason PUD 3 supporters collaborated and voted for the formation of a countywide PUD.”
“After years of jealousy for only having 28 days, February has been plotting and scheming away. With nothing but time on its hands, February secretly invented a time machine. In an elaborate plan to exact its revenge on the other months, February traveled back in time and devised a plot to deceive humanity into accepting the absurdity of a "Leap Day" every 7 years. It managed to pull off this ruse for years by stealing days from other months in secret. However, due to years of success which lead to overconfidence having pulled off this fantastic farce, February made a fatal mistake this year. February was caught stealing days from November to fuel the next two Leap Years. Now that we have caught on, what are we to do? Go on with this charade? Or do we ignore this slip up and play along to allow February to have its Leap Day in 2024 and for Leap Years to come? That is the real question we must ask ourselves.”
“Tornado outbreak, November 29 & 30 of 2022 southern states. If my memory serves me correctly, Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia not sure if Mississippi.”
“Why is 27 afraid of 28? Because TWENTY-ATE 29 and 30.”
“My guess is that "Y2K" finally struck!”
