"Another Sunday," "Sunday Bloody Sunday," "Naked Sunday, "Blue Sunday," "Sunday Morning"... the list of songs with the "7th" day in their title goes on and on. It makes you wonder why so many songwriters make references to that particular day, I mean why not "Another Friday"? Or "Monday Bloody Monday"? Why Sunday of all days?
Personally, I can't stand Sunday. And I know alot of others who feel the same way. Sure, it's a day off for some people, and it's kinda relaxing, but I dread that day. So I came up with this:
We can eliminate the day. By now you must be thinking I'm on crack.. keep reading though.. it makes sense. If we got rid of Sunday, we'd have 6 days left in the week, but we'd also have and extra 24 hours. What do we do with those now? Simple, 6 divides into 24 perfectly and the result is 4 (not bad for someone who dropped math in grade 10, eh?). Then we could just add 4 hours onto every other day making it a 6 days weeks with 28 hours in each day.
This also solves a bunch of other problems. Of course, we're getting rid of a day most people don't like. But we also solve the problem of having too few hours in a day. Without Sunday, we have an extra 4 hours in each day. And of course, all activities during the day will last for the same amount of time as they would in a 24 hour day, we'd just have some more extra time after work or school or just more time to waste in general. And as much as a hate to day it, this idea would help out consummerism. Most stores are either closed on Sunday, or they only open for a few hours. Without Sunday, this wouldn't pose a problem and stores could remain open for a few extra hours in the remaining days of the week. It'd probably do alot of good for the economy. And it'd create jobs. How, you ask? Simpler still. If businesses stay open for longer hours they're obviously going to need more people to handle different shifts.
So there you go, a few damned good reasons why we should eliminate Sunday and how it would benefit us. If you diagree with me, feel free to say so.. just be able to support yourself somehow!
