Skip Work, Have Sex? Yes Please
The Russians have a lot of issues, mainly in the basic human rights area, but we have to give credit where credit is due, and Russia gets a point for creating a holiday specifically so people can skip work and get laid. Unfortunately it’s not for stress release or aging reversal or for a mood boost. They’re doing it to “promote conception,” aka TO MAKE BABIES.
Via Independant.co.uk:
Russia is celebrating its eighth annual ‘day of conception’ as couples in the eastern region of Ulyanovsk are being advised to stay at home to procreate.
Governor of the region Sergey Morozov has urged bosses to allow men and women the 12th of September off work in order to try and reproduce.
In past years prizes have been awarded to couples who give birth in exactly nine months from the unofficial public holiday.
The regional celebration is part of a gesture to increase Russia’s struggling birth rate.
Obviously we in the West don’t really have that big of a problem makin’ babies, but we do thank a National Day of Booty would be an awesome addition to the holiday calendar. We’ve all had those times where a super hot hook up opportunity was thwarted by misaligned work schedules.
Hey US government – raise the spirits of your population by adding National Booty Day – OBC will be the official sponsor!
Have a great weekend, guys. See you Monday! (Unless you’re celebrating National Booty Day, in which case – ENJOY!)
