Get the perspirrational mug.A personal holiday is the celebration of a significant event in your life. Your birthday is the most common personal holiday, and is often celebrated with friends and family, using standard ceremonies which in North America include a birthday cake with candles and the receiving of gifts.
A common shared personal holiday is the anniversary of a wedding. Less commonly celebrated shared personal holidays are "our first sex day" and even "day we met day".
There are personal holidays which commemorate more solemn occasions, such as that shared by siblings on the anniversary of a parent's death.
The largest (and largely unacknowledged) group of personal holidays are more private ones. These include "day I quit smoking/drinking day" and celebrations of life-changing events such as "first orgasm day" and "spiritual awakening day" (which may, for some, coincide).
Widely shared, but even less acknowledged, are anniversaries of negative personal events, like "shot my mouth off day" or "caught cheating day". Whether they are admitted to or not, these negative personal holidays require their own forms of ritual remembrances, such as throwing a good drunk.

Get the personal holiday mug.Usually in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills, but not exclusively so: refers to a large, gaudy, expensive custom-built house that ignores any considerations of taste, architectural proportions, or the surrounding environment. Far worse than a McMansion. The term "Persian Palace" was coined in the last decades of the 20th century after well-heeled Iranians (who then began calling themselves Persians again) began emigrating to Southern California and buying up real estate. Typically, the owners (who today do not absolutely have to be Persian, by any means) will tear down a perfectly decent, existing house, paying no heed to its historical or architectural value, in order to replace it with the Persian Palace. This ugly new monstronsity will be far too large for the lot, gobbling up nearly all of the lawn and adjacent spaces. The Palace will also boast phony "classical" features, such as pseudo-Corinthian pillars thoughtlessly tacked on, with the whole mess painted in extremely garish colors, and a fleet of expensive, flashy, late-model foreign cars (with spinners and tinted windows) jamming the driveways.
