White Castle wants everyone to skip work

January 28th, 2006

Even if it's just a marketing gimmick, White Castle's movement to make the Monday after the Super Bowl an official holiday is genius. Over 13,000 people have signed the petition so far, and if they can get like a zillion-million more, this is gonna happen. Here's their reasoning:

Why shouldn’t there be a grassroots campaign to make the Day After the “Big Game” a national holiday?

Especially when you consider that there are more parties with more food and more beer on the day of the “Big Game” than on New Year’s Eve. And, as a result, some 1.4 million employed U.S. adults call in sick the Day After the “Big Game."

What's interesting here is that nowhere on the site do they suggest that you go eat hamburgers on this "D.A. Day". That's excellent, because White Castle is disgusting, especially how they refer to their little cancer-inducers as "Sliders". Yuck.

Of course, none of this should really apply to us anyway since we don't have a real job, nor do we intend to get a real job. In fact, we're starting our own movement called the "We Don't Want a Real Job (Movement)". It's really simple in its genius. Everyone gives us money and then we don't work.
