Plaid Day

Plaid Day, May 18th, is the day where the sheer magnificence and general wonderfulness of plaid is celebrated around the world. Plaid Day is celebrated by wearing plaid on your person. Those who refuse to adorn themselves in the Sacred Flannel are duly sacrificed. Serious Plaidies indulge in tribal plaid face paint and the ceremonial burning of a kilt. Common phrases used on Plaid Day include, "I'm plaid with that," "You're TOTALLY plaiding today," and "That's SO plaid."

Jessica celebrated Plaid Day by dying her hair in plaid stripes.

Plaxidaisical

When you are immature, selfish, and don't give a crap about your work, your co-workers, your company, or your reputation.

Normally when you skip work and don't call in to let them know where you are, are late for work meetings, yell at your boss on national TV, get fined every week for insubordination, and shoot yourself with an unlicensed firearm in a NY nightclub which damages your very career, you might say you are feeling Plaxidaisical about your job.
