Does anyone really celebrate May Day? - GoFuckYourself.com

SykkBoy · 05-01-2007, 02:14 PM

I actually got a message from someone saying "Happy May Day"

Does anyone really celebrate this? Are the special holdiday cards for the occasion? Is this yet another excuse for me to break out the BBQ grill equipment?

I found out a little bit about it at wikipedia...

Yep. Plenty do.

In some pagan religions, it's a holiday of fertility.

EZRhino · 05-01-2007, 02:31 PM

The Soviets and Red China used to celebrate this day pretty often

SykkBoy · 05-01-2007, 03:20 PM

If it involves me getting presents than yes I celebrate all those holidays.

aico · 05-01-2007, 03:52 PM

I sure don't, but someone today was fucking pissing me off. I was out picking up my crab traps in my boat, and some fucking idiot on the CB Radio kept saying "May Day, May Day" I was like, fuck dude I know it's May Day, shut the fuck up already. Annoying as hell.

There's a huge Techno party in Germany called the mayday. They for sure celebrate!

ayne468 · 05-01-2007, 11:29 PM

It is a much bigger deal in Europe than it is in the States.

Voodoo · 05-02-2007, 10:36 AM

As D said..
"It's a holiday of fertility."

So, most assuredly, Mexicans celebrate it.

King Adam · 05-02-2007, 10:43 AM

Never really heard of it but thanks for the links. Good read.

Ivana Fukalot · 05-02-2007, 12:06 PM

Long time ago russians celebrated it. May Day was an important official holiday in the Soviet Union, celebrated with elaborate popular parade in the centre of the major cities. The biggest celebration was traditionally organized on the Red Square, where government leaders were greeting the crowds form the Lenin's Mausoleum.
But now its just a reason for rest

carol.prime · 05-02-2007, 01:10 PM

yeah..may has special holidays and occasions in different countries...like philippines, may1-labor day....every second sunday of may - mother's day...
