My Theory of Infinite Fridays

Hangovers and coffee lead me to ponder strange concepts, here's an example:


Firstly, we must accept, as an axiom, that: Thursday is the new Friday


If this is the case, then Wednesday is the new Thursday, Tuesday the new Wednesday, Monday the new Tuesday etc etc.


However, considering that Thursday is the new Friday, it follows that, Wednesday is Thursday and Friday, Tuesday is Wednesday and Thursday, Monday is Tuesday and Wednesday, Sunday is Monday and Tuesday, Saturday is Sunday and Monday, Friday is Saturday and Sunday, and, Thursday is Friday and Saturday.


Following this process through to its logical conclusion, every day of the week is simultaneously every other day of the week, in short, every day is Friday.


… Furthermore, this means that every day is Saturday as well, which leads me to question why I'm at work on the weekend.

Me, pondering
