or as The Clash sang on their debut album: “Monday is coming like a jail on wheels!”
Since nobody I have yet met actually likes mondays, and given all the technology us computer wizards have at our diposal, and given that most of us live in a Democracy of one form or another, and it is such an overwhelmingly unpopular day…
Let’s do something about it!
Well, it’s just a suggestiion!
February 18, 2007 at 12:59 am #158373NessaParticipantWell as much as i agree with not liking Mondays, i think it’s mainly the same reason as everyone else. We get adjusted to the weekend fun/rest that Monday just doesn’t seem all so great to go back to the working/school routine. I don’t really think there is much we can do about it, as if we extended the weekend till Tuesday, then Tuesday would become the new most disliked day and so on! Unless you want to be harsh and never take a break from work/school that way you never experience that Oh-my-break-wasn’t-long-enough feeling when you have to go back on Monday!
Besides, Monday did nothing to you! 😛 So i hold nothing against it, it didn’t choose to be the day the weekend ends and people return to their work/school time! (And yes this is me teasing as if Monday really does have feelings!)
But yeah, as more real discussion, Monday is just a day just like any other, just like Friday is loved because it ends the week and Saturday is loved even more because it’s the day to really party and take your rest. So yeah i don’t really mind Mondays too much because they gotta happen regradless of what they are named or where they are placed!
Just had to put in my two cents! 🙂
*cough* Even if i wasn’t sure if this thread was just a joking one or not…..

I wish it was Sunday
‘Cause that’s my fun day

I’m not sure what you have in mind? Make Mondays illegal?
I like Mondays. They give me a chance to rest from the weekend. 😉

February 18, 2007 at 11:09 am #158375Leapy LeoMemberHey, welcome to the site den44057!
Mondays are raw, by that I mean you are experiencing a terrible truama of moving from freedom to the working week in a way that hits you at no other time with quite such force.
By wednesday we have either gone numb or our adrenalin is back up [depending on how individuals feel about thier jobs] and thursday/friday is always more bearable because we can feel that the weekend is just around the corner.
Thankyou for your contributions, and I know I half reiterated one of Hatedjealousy’s points there, but the point is that I’ve got to accept that I can’t do anything about that monday morning feeling and I’ll just have to keep on getting on with it.
Good luck with the marathon, Jeff. I did four when I was in my twenties and you’ll be okay if you’ve done the training and you don’t over pace yourself.
February 18, 2007 at 5:29 pm #158377Soccer4dummysMemberHey den44057! finally got out of the arcade? you really took it over 😀
I think you guys are right… mostly cuz we don’t have school tomorrow for presidents day, and I know I’m not going to like Tuesday at all! so this week, Tuesday is the new Monday (If that makes any sense)
February 18, 2007 at 6:30 pm #158372MrEggsaladParticipantI say I probably dislike Wednesday the most, it’s in the middle of the week, so you still have half a week until the weekend and that’s when you would be knee deep in whatever it is you do. Plus, Monday can be the start of something great, gets me back to life, which is usually 50/50 on the happy-meter.
February 18, 2007 at 8:07 pm #158376Leapy LeoMemberI seem to remember that the staticisians [governers of out Universe as they are] decided that they could actually predict what would be the most depressing day of the year in the UK.
Guess what: it was a monday at the begining of Winter.
Two depressing factors put together make alot of depression, apparently.
:woot:

I hate Sunday more than Monday: “Wait…It’s almost Monday, isn’t it? Oh SH**.”
:p But, seriously…My hatred of Monday is little, just get Monday over with and kickstart your week! 🙂 … The only time I really hate Monday is when I have a long break from school, then have to come back on Monday. Now that’s something we all can understand?
