This Friday is of course Friday the 13th. Did you know it was also National Blame Someone Else Day? It’s celebrated on the first Friday the 13th of each year. My research found (which is different than official records) that a group of guys created this to cover all the crazy, stupid and sometimes dangerous things they do on a regular basis. It’s not really our fault; a medical study at John Hopkins Medical Center determined most men don’t have the logic gene that women have. The problem is men are running out of excuses for the illogical things they do and it’s reached a critical point. I am going to do something about it! I’ve petitioned the Federal Government to make this a weekly thing instead of once a year and it’s really taken off! I started a Go Fund Me page to support legislation to make every Friday National Blame Someone Else Day and I’ve raised $836,212 in under 24 hours! Since our senate is 75% male this should pass in under a week. I expect strong opposition from women, so it’s probably best not to mention anything to them until it’s over and approved. And when they start to complain, and they will, we will just blame it on someone else.
