One of Reg's favorites:
I suppose you all have read Regette's ode to April...
Surprisingly, this post didn't make me angry.
It made me sad, thinking about poor Regette thinking for all these years that April is better than March.
So, out of the kindness of my heart, I've constructed a reply to her blog explaining how all her reasons were... Oh, how should I put it... Wrong.
And here it is.
Top 10 reasons why March is better than April:
1. If March weren't "an entire month of school without a break", April would cease to be so special to you because it would no longer promise the long awaited Spring break. Without March, April would be ruined.
2. Yes, March is mostly winter. However, winter is my favorite Season. In fact, out of Vivaldi's Four Seasons, "Winter" is the most spectacular and awe-inspiring... Even the slow movement! Also, you cannot use people with disorders to praise a month. What about people with allergies? They are virtually screwed in the spring. What about people with Narcolepsy? Due to spring break, there are more people on the roads at night and thus more people at risk of being hit by a narcoleptic driver. Therefore, people with disorders are not effective evidence to prove a point.
3. St. Patrick's day is not typically considered a religious holiday, while Easter is. What about Jewish people? They don't get presents on Easter. What about Jehovah's Witness children? They don't get to delight in leprechauns or the Easter Bunny. Therefore, holidays are also not effective evidence to prove a point.
4. Are you insinuating that no murders have occurred in April? If I were you, I would do a little more research...
5. In March, you are blissfully unaware of whether or not you were rejected from colleges and thus can continue your daydreams of coffee at Harvard or reading in Yale's library.
6. I... Have no problem with this reasoning.
7. Who freaking cares?
8. April needs a special occasion such as April Fools Day to make it special. March, however, need only be March to be special. March very much pwned.
9. I don't have T.V., and therefore don't care.
10. There are less months until you die in April.
And there you have it.
Less than three,
~Summer.

Top 10 reasons why April is better than March:
1. In the years 2001 to 2020 Easter will fall 14 times in April and 6 times in March, therefore more Spring breaks will occur in April. When spring break doesn’t fall in March, March will be an entire month of school without a break.
2. March is mostly winter. People with seasonal affective disorder are sad during winter. April is spring. People with seasonal affective disorder are happy in spring. Therefore April cures depression.
3. Leprechauns don’t bring presents like the Easter Bunny.
4. On March 15th Brutus stabbed his BFF.
5. Most colleges admissions decisions are done by April and the stress of not knowing is over.
6. April 1st is an excellent excuse to give your least favorite person brownies laced with a laxative. This would be generally frowned upon in March, instead of seen as an excellent prank.
7. National Geographic expedition week is in April.
8. In a Google battle of March vs. April, when I typed in April it suggested “April fools!” and for March it suggested “March 2011.” April pwned.
9. Good prime time T.V. resumes in April (Bones) after taunting me with only two new episodes in all of March.
10. There are less months until my birthday in April.
