Monday's Should Be Illegal

November 5th 2007 01:59

How right the Boomtown Rats were when they declared "I don't like Mondays".
I hate Monday's and I firmly believe that they should be illegal. Nothing good comes out of Mondays at all. On top of Monday being a crap day in general, they also ruin your Sunday with the thought of the impending day of doom. I spend a lot of Sunday thinking "Back to work tomorrow, another five days til the weekend". Depressing isn't it?

Back to the Boomtown Rats, so when Bob Geldof penned the song, he may have had more serious inspiration then just himself not liking them, he said the song was written after he heard about the shooting spree of 16-year-old Brenda Ann Spencer, who fired at children playing in a school playground across the street from her home in San Diego, California. She killed two adults and injured eight children and one police officer. Spencer showed no remorse for her crime, and her explanation for her actions was "I don't like Mondays." Mondays are bad, bad thing, they should be made into an extra weekend day, or should be a half day of work to ease you back into the working week, it wouldn't be so horrible then. So what are you thoughts? Do you like Mondays?
