Reposting bc I dun goofed before
I’m sure the artist intended to be smart and use metric time as something silly.
The problem is he used regular time.
60 * 60 * 24=86400=>86.4 kseconds where k stands for 1000. Like kilo for 1000 grams. Kilometer for 1000 meters etc.
The comic doesn’t make sense…
A proposed better calendar that would have made as much sense as converting to the metric system
EDIT: turns out that the idea is not so new … it was called the “International Fixed Calendar” and it was first proposed in 1902
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Fixed_CalendarLove this idea. What should the 13th month be named?
The correct month name like all the rest should be.

Really though? Uncember just to really stab the heart of every latin linguist out there.
I’m a fan of Nihilary myself. Creating a month from nothing.
1th month, 2th month, 3th month, 4th month, 5th month, 6th month, 7th month, 8th month, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th months.
I thought it would be more like … UNDECEMEBER … for the Latin Undecim
Anyways … I propose
- Hangovery
- Canada
- Colduary
- Holy
- Enducation
- Summer
- America
- France
- Startucation
- Germany
- Veterans
- Xmas
- Unlucky
Yeah Undecemeber would confuse too many people though. Hence me shortening to Uncember. Undecim sounds cool though and would still piss people off lol.
Also you have to include multiple languages!
- Cold.
- Not so cold now.
- Damnit hurry up.
- Unlucky
- Why is it summer already?
- Summer
- Still summer
- Stillest summer
- Also unlucky
- Nice for one week
- The snow is coming…
- I swear it’s coming…
- Unluckiest also maaaaybe snow.
In my country, the week starts on monday
I think weeks start on monday everywhere except for one country…
Yeah, the country that makes all the fking calendar apps that make me go to settings and change the first week day. Every time. God fking why.
