Is there a word for the thing before the penultimate? Because that would be it.
antepenultimate
And following (or preceding) that, there is: preantepenultimate and propreantepenultimate.
I don’t know what ultimate penmanship and propane accessories have to do with this discussion.
I like it
Eerie?
This broke me. The dot … over the i. That broke me. I’m … I’m done.
You’ll be fine mate.
Thursday = 4/7 = 0.571
8pm = 20/24 = 0.833
October = 10/12 = 0.833
Saturday =6/7 = 0.857
Unless you only count work days, then Thurs = 4/5 = 0.8
I rest my case
This is incredible
Rocksolid argument.
The reason thursday is in the list is because of it containing the letter H. Check its position in the alphabet
Don’t some cultures start their calendar week on Saturday? If so then Thursday is 6/7 for that specific use case.
ok yes October being equivalent to Saturday makes much more sense. best day of the week = best month of the year
This is publishable.
This counts as peer review ^^
Proof accepted!
Submitting to the Journal of Useful Bullshit.
Some fancy academic website will charge us $40 to read our own work and we won’t get paid.
Thursday is 5/7 if you’re one of those uncivilized people who start the week in Sunday.
I like to think of weekends like bookends, sandwiching the work week between freedom.
To me the weekend is the end of the week. I don’t start the week on its end, so by elimination the week starts on Monday.
But it also finishes on a Friday, so 4/5, not 4/7.
End (noun)
- Either extremity of something that has length.
“THE” weekend, singular.
End (noun) 3. “The point in time when an action, event, or phenomenon ceases or is completed; the conclusion.”
I can respect this.
Start it when it ends, turn it upside down, light the whole thing on fire. Pure anarchy.
It feels more like 7pm to me
Wrong.
Thur 4/7 October 10/12 8pm. 8/12
Take out weekends and include all 24 hours of the day:
Thursday 4/5 = 0.8
October 10/12 = 0.833
8pm 20/24 = 0.833Why taking out weekends? In that case take out December and 23 to 7 too.
Because it’s how Thursday feels relative to the work week. That’s why it feels related to the others intuitively.
“Octo” in October means eight. Makes sense.
I don’t know about Thursday, i dont feel the same connection.
“Octo” in October means eight.
Well it did, then some assholes named Julius and Augustus had to fuck it up. Somebody should stab one of those fuckers
Common misconception.
July and August were renamed. The original names were derived from five and six. The extra two months that threw everything off were January and February. When 5-12 were named January and February didn’t even have names, it was just that cold period when there was no planting or harvesting. There were a bunch of other changes to the calendar over the centuries before we got where we are too.

Huh, neat. Thanks
Somebody should stab one of those fuckers
I have some fantastic news for you
It’s the eighth day of the week, duh.
I agree with October and 8 pm but not Thursday. Thursday is too yellow to be October.
October is too golden and burnt umber to not be Thursday.
October is way more yellow than Thursdsay.
October is Blue
Thursday is purple though.
I know October kind of implies this but I’d add Halloween to this group.
Oh I get it, mid to late year, mid to late week, and mid to late in the day.

You really can’t explain it? This is the peak of what that noggin is capable of?
They’re all almost the end of the thing but not the very end. Of course they’re the same thing.
They’re also round, warm colored, and soft/smooth. I will not be taking follow up questions.
Sounds like someone has synesthesia.
Synesthesia is a fascinating affliction.
I beg to differ. It’s just a state of being.
I sincerely hesitated before posting that, unsure of the word “affliction.” I’ve only ever known one person with it and they didn’t seem to suffer from it. However, their view of the world absolutely was fascinating.
I intend no denigration of anyone with synesthesia. However, for anyone with it reading this, I’d love to learn more from you.

I see them as all darker colored, like a sunset but not quite night.
Weekends are always dark to me, I kind of hate it.
bouba, not kiki
Thursday is like this.
I literally cannot for the life of me explain why.
But خميس? The name of Thursday in my native Arabic?
Ah but Jeudi, the French name. Sun high in the sky. Very round.
I cannot even begin to explain.
Really ? that’s too funny… to me they’re warm, a bit soft, balanced & fair, and very finely textured
