Default What unofficial observances do you recognize?

Did you know that March is National Cheerleader Safety Month, National Noodle Month and National Umbrella Month? Today is the Ides of March. Yesterday was Albert Einstein's birthday and National Pi Day (3/14). (I don't know if this works outside of the US because most likely everywhere else the short date for March the 3rd is 14.3.)
Besides being National Pi Day 3/14 was also:
  • Celebrate Scientists Day!
  • Commonwealth Day!
  • Fill Our Staplers Day!
  • Genius Day!
  • International Ask a Question Day!
  • Learn About Butterflies Day!
  • National Children's Craft Day!
  • National Potato Chip Day!
  • National Save a Spider Day!
  • National Workplace Napping Day!

Are there any unofficial observances or "National ... Day" or "National ... Month" that you make a point to tell people about? Or do you think this stuff is way out of control?
