When my son was younger, he would try to get out of
homework or chores by declaring it was Opposite Day. Then he would tell me he was supposed to have
pizza for supper or watch a special movie, and I would tell him, but you said
it was opposite day. He didn't realize
that it worked both ways; he wanted to get rid of the bad, but keep the good
things. At the time I thought it was
just something he made up, and it wasn’t until today that I realized it was an
actual "day".
Nobody knows exactly how this day came about. There are some references to President Calvin
Coolidge in the 1920's. Apparently he
said one thing but meant another.
Strange coming from a President!

On opposite day, everything is opposite of what it is
supposed to be. So how do we even know
it is Opposite Day, it could be the opposite of opposite day.
