martenitsa

The martenitsa is a unique Bulgarian custom. It is made especially for 1 of March when according to the Bulgarians, the new agricultural year begins. It is a kind of amulet - twisted and tasseled red and white threads. The red, according to the folk beliefs,has the power of the sun and can give live to every living creature.

On the first of March children and adults put martenitsi(pl) on their clothes. The martenitsi are tied to bring health. Domestic animals and fruit-bearing trees are also adorned with martenitsa in the belief that it brings fertility. According to the popular custom, they wear until they see a stork, a swallow or a fruit tree in blossom for the first time. Then they take the martenitsi off and tie it on a tree or place it under a stone. Nine days later people try to divine their future by the insects arround the amulets.

The Marteen Principle

The principle that nobody gives a shit about the sport of track and field. This is based on the idea that no one cares who is faster because it is not an achievable skill, it is simply a genetic ability. The great philosopher Marteen stated that "it is Track and Field like having a competition on who's dick is the biggest, it is not actually an athletic competition"

Friend1: "Bro, I ran a 54.6 in the 400 yesterday"
Friend2: "Come on man abide by The Marteen Principle"
Friend1: "What?"
Friend2: "Nobody gives a fuck about Track"
