See opposite
day.
1. A term used to describe that it is, in fact, opposite
day which can only be used on opposite
day. The
"not" is usually over-emphasized, and the term usually follows a wink, nudge or other non-verbal que that the speaker means the opposite.
The rational behind this use of the term is that if it is Opposite
Day, then the correct way of proclaiming that it's Opposite
Day, is by actually proclaiming how it isn't Opposite
Day.
This is the most commonly used form of the phrase.
2. A term that is used to genuinely describe how it is not opposite day. This use of the phrase is usually used by those that do not plan on partaking in Opposite Day, and therefor
will mention that it's actually "not Opposite Day" when people say it is (or on Opposite Day, isn't). This usually does not
work, as the pro-Opposite Day party acts as if the other party is in cahoots with them, not shutting them down.
1. "Guess what today ISN'T. Today is NOT Opposite
Day!" *wink* *nudge*
2. "Stop saying that it's opposite
day, because it's not Opposite
Day." ... "That's not what I meant, I'm not agreeing with you in Opposite language, I'm trying to tell you that it isn't opposite day!" ... "UGH!"
