Painful or Fruity

Today is National Punch Day! I'm gonna be honest with you, I'm not quite sure whether or not we're talking fruity concoctions or mean interactions here. From what I've researched, it looks like the day is leaning towards being about the drink, but I won't hold it against you if you go around punching people. They might, and the state officials might, but I won't hold a grudge.

As it turns out, "Punch" comes from the Hindustani word "Pench", which means 'five'. And since the punch was made with five ingredients, they called it after how many ingredients are in it. I'm really glad we don't do that with everything, or our restaurant menus would be a lot less fun to read.

However, I can't say all that without also pointing out that a fist is made of five fingers, so physically punching wouldn't technically be a wrong way to celebrate. ... Just sayin'

All In

Today is All or Nothing Day! Today is a day to put it all on the line! There is no scale of action today, but only the two distinct ends. Either you do all you possibly can to get all your work done and your needs fulfilled, or you don't even try.

There isn't any room for hesitation or neutrality today. No sir, that kind of thing gets you killed in a dog-eat-dog world. One false move and you're gone just because you didn't know when to fold 'em! Be extra careful out there today because all the celebrators of this holiday are going to seem unstoppable. Or very stoppable. If any situation arises, you look it dead in the eye and take it down by the scruff of it's neck. Or... y'know... not.
