Despair, Inc. 2011 Custom Calendar
“We’ve teamed up with the geniuses at Despair, Inc. to bring you a totally demotivating and hilarious 2011 calendar. You’ll get a different Demotivator each month (see below) as well as important dates in geek history. Impress your friends with your geeky trivia knowledge! Never forget Talk Like A Pirate Day again! Send @wilw a Happy Birthday tweet right on time! The superpowers you will gain from having this calendar cannot possibly be fit in one paragraph. Keep it for yourself or give it to that geek in your life who has everything but still finds stuff to complain about. They’ll love it, but pretend to hate it. That’s just how they roll. Some sample dates of import: January 3, 1892: J.R.R. Tolkien’s birthday. Eat second breakfast. Then elevensies. February 12: Darwin Day. Celebrate science by acting like your chimp ancestor. March 16, 1999: Thousands of nerds become instantly hooked on the EverCrack. April 2: Act Like A T-Rex Day. Or as we call it, “”Fall for April Fool’s Jokes Again Day.”" May 4: Star Wars Day! May the 4th be with you! June 10: Ballpoint Pen Day. Scratch giant circles on a paper to start the celebration. July 3, 1985: Back to the Future is released, earns a gigawatt of cash. August 22, 1920: Ray Bradbury’s Birthday. S is for space. L is for love. September 18: International Observe the Moon Night. We love the moon cuz it is close to us October 18, 2009: W00tstock is born and a generation of geeks rejoices. November 20, 2009: Large Hadron Collider goes live, world remains intact. For now December 18: National Roast a Suckling Pig Day. At least eat some bacon. And dozens and dozens more! Includes the following Demotivator designs: Blame. The secret to success is knowing who to blame for your failures. Conformity. When people are free to do as they please, they usually imitate each other. Curiosity. Some places remain unknown because no one has ventured forth. Others remain so because no one has ever come back. Do It Later. The early worm is for the birds. Dreams. Dreams are like rainbows. Only idiots chase them. Elitism. It’s lonely at the top, but it’s comforting to look down upon everyone at the bottom. Loneliness. If you find yourself struggling with loneliness, you’re not alone. And yet you are alone. So very alone. Madness. Madness does not always howl. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, “”Hey, is there room in your head for one more?”" Persistence. It’s over, man. Let her go. Revelation. The downside of being ahead of your time is that your ruins might end up as a playground for cavorting druids. Synergy. A code word lazy people use when they want you to do all the work. Underachievement. The tallest blade of grass is the first to be cut by the lawnmower.”
