The day to designated to dress up to look exactly like your friend is a day of hilarious duos. And trios. And quads. And quintets. And numbers of people for which I have no idea what it'd be called. And that is a bit strange. Why do we assume it to be acceptable to dress up exactly the same as more than one other person on twin day? It isn't quadruplet+ day! Yet for some reason, when we hear "twin" we automatically deem it completely normal to exceed the limit it presents. Why is that a "rule" that many do not follow?
School Spirit
The concept of school spirit is a thing unknown in much of the world, yet is almost hard to imagine for many of us. Isn't the goal of all teachers and leaders at school to get us excited to support our school, its sports teams, mascot, and the community? To wear the school colors on game days, dress up for homecoming, and shout with much excitement at the pep rallies? You come to identify yourself with your school and school is where you spend almost the entire day. At many schools on the other side of the globe though, this idea is strange. A mascot for a school? School colors? Pep rallies? Cheering for your class? Dressing up silly for a week to get "points"? Why? What is the purpose of that? When would there even be time made for something of the sort?
Wall Hangings
As great as it is to be able to plaster your bedroom walls with posters and pictures and quotes, it is really quite strange. Why do we put things on our walls, not on our floors, ceilings, or any other part of the room? Who came up with such an idea? Why would we want to see the very same thing every time we enter a room? Ranging from a thin piece of paper to a thick wooden frame to an artsy bicycle seat, there is not much that isn't considered for a wall hanging somewhere in the world. Does this say something about us humans?
