I was recently informed of a most wonderful holiday. International Steampunk Day. It lands on June 14th; I learned of it just in time.
The Facebook Group There is International Pirate Day, Ninja Appreciation Day, Dress like a Goth Day and Mock an Emo Day, but there is no steampunk day. I suggest we remedy this and have a offical Holiday where we get to dress up like Steampunk Characters, watch steampunk movies, play steampunk video games, read steampunk books and just bask in the glory that is the steampunk genre. So bust out your goggles and your ray guns, your felt vests and your steam gaskets and imagine a history that might have been...at least for one day.
Here's the link for the facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=17790019702#

Isn't that the day before the new Harry Potter comes out? That will be one busy week for me.
EDIT: Apologies, I am terrible with dates.
I hope I have an income by then, so I can at least start building a good Steampunk outfit...
EDIT: I won't.
