Holidays and Celebrations Part 2
« on: June 30, 2015, 02:26:33 AM »

Thanks to all of the support and ideas collaborated in part one- I hereby propose the following celebrations to become National Holidays

(Pardon me if I am formatting this wrong I've never proposed a goverment document before)

Also take into mind that much of this information was made up for fun just to add some details
If any of you have better suggestions for Holiday Backgrounds feel free to let me know




Guillotine Day

Guillotine Day is a celebration of one of this region's most prized inventions- the
Guillotine
And even though the Public executions haven't happened in the land of Taijitu in over 100 years lets not forget how internationally famous we were in the weapons business
The Guillotine was a breakthrough in Killing-Science
The overall economy practically ran on the mass production of Guillotines and exporting them to other regions
We used to use that thing almost everyday right up until the giant prophesied Hippie Movement for told to us by our ancestors

FLASHBACK
Us: Hey! Hey guys! Check this out, we can kill people with this Guillotine thing
Ancestors: You young kids and your wacky gizmos!! Someday a bunch of hippies are a-gonna come and you'll see!! You'll all see!!
FLASHBACK OVER

And though now we all know better and that killing is "wrong" I think it's still important to celebrate the vast history of our region

Therefore I propose that on Guillotine Day we shall all celebrate through the following traditional activities:
  • Everyone participating in this glorious event should dress in traditional old timey garments just like in the good old Guillotine day's- Tea pots, Gnome hats, the works
  • Guillotine day should be a day of knowledge of our region's history
  • It is traditional to stumble around town all role-play like in your costume and drink alot (I seem to have the strange fixation that this should be similar to Oktober fest, yet with learning, and historical roleplay)
  • Close to sunday after the parade and other in town festivities there shall be a banquet where all of the food is prepared with Guillotine
  • Through out the day a dummy has been made to decapitate in the Guillotine- and during the festival said thing is done and everyone cheers HURRAH

These all seem reasonable enough
Let's move on shall we



Seasonal Festivals

Ok, so like, a long, long, LONG time ago... EONS AGO but not too many eons
Or not really eons, just long enough ago that it seems like legend

There were the four seasons
But instead of literal seasons dealing the rotation tilt and rotation
It was the physical human manifestation of each season
They all lived together and filmed a comedy TV sitcom based on there lives
Or so as the legend goes

In honor of this ancient myth/legend/folk tale
At the beginning of each season a festival is held to paralegal each season

The Winter Festival

Winter was the pessimistic one of the bunch
It was some what Tsundere, socially awkward, gothic, and preferred doing things solo, yet was also very intelligent

So in honor of Winter I propose the following activities

  • The town gathers for for the usual winter activities
  • Sledding
  • Hot coco
  • Resurrect the morbid snow demon (one of Winter's favorite catalouged dark atrocities)

The Spring Festival

Spring, unlike Winter, was a social butterfly
It ran around all super cute manipulating people into it's own hijinks
So even though at a first glance Spring might seem like the cutest thing ever- Spring was actually a yandere pschopath

So, in honor of Spring I propose the fowllowing activites

  • Appreciate the blooming surrounding nature of Spring
  • Destroy the blooming surrounding nature of Spring
  • Have threads all dedicated to cute cat photos

The Summer Festival

Summer was hot headed, determined, ambitious, ignorant, and arrogant

Therefore in honor of Summer I propose the following opportunities

  • The town should head down to the beach (beach role play woop woop)
  • BBQ
  • Set something on fire or whatever
    The Autumn Festival

    Last but not least, there was Autumn, and Autumn was sensitive, creative, graceful, and an intellectual

    And in honor of Autumn I chose the following activities

    • Create art so that we can gather it all together for an art gallery (anything from drawing to fan fictions)
    • Uh something else intellectual, like, science, we should all do a science



    Anyway, this seems to be the end of the list so far

    The dates for all of these are TBA

    I you have any suggestions or questions let me know
