I would have to say that the holiday that I hold favorite in my heart would be Comic Appreciation Day. Of course I use the term day loosely, as this holiday is in fact an all weekend occurence in closest sense of a convention. In the weeks prior to this event, streets and buildings all across the world are immersed in the festive decorations of comic characters. People everywhere will dress up as their favorite comic book characters, everything from superheroes to cartoon strips. The weekend of celebration will include costume contests, debates between Marvel lovers and DC lovers, and all the autographs signings the celebrities can take! The goal is just to consolidate all the comic conventions of the world and combine them into one great big comic-love fest. Imagine Woodstock, but with comics. That's right, I'm talking big time celebration. It'll be the best three days of each year! And in the truest style of comics, everything will be resolved in the end, almost as if by magic. That way, no one has to clean up. What a holiday!

I believe that the act of grinding should be outlawed. It is just so utterly distasteful. It is a lewd and disgusting act that cannot in any just world be described as dancing. The fact that grinding is accepted as a form of dancing is a crime, let alone allowed at any school function. Dancing is supposed to be about beautiful expression of the creative soul, not offensive gestures akin to that of a primitive ape. Kids these days need to learn the classic forms of dancing such as waltz, swing dancing, and even a little salsa for the truly adventurous. I mean, the world itself is unattractive: grinding. It sounds like the noise that my car makes every morning. It is not something that we, as parents, should be condoning in our schools, or anywhere for that matter. A grind-free world will be a much more appealing place to live in. That is why I am demanding that we put this law into effect and get rid of this unholy act once and for all.
