Oh, my friends, happy May Day. I think Labor Day is a very commemorative day, but unfortunately, there seems to be no VPS merchants offering discounts today. This is something I feel very regretful recently.

    Oh, then I look forward to having activities after they wake up. This is a holiday for our workers all over the world. I think we should pay attention to it

    This is what we do in the UK on May Day (when it's not pissing down with rain like today):

    Morris dancing (without a pole):

    Maypole dancing (with a pole):

    It's great, no fancy special effects, no professional training, laborers' festival, we should all do something to make this festival more meaningful.

    FYI, May Day is not a global holiday. No one in the US celebrates it unless (a) you're a labor union leader, (b) you're a Catholic over the age of 80 or so, or (c) you're a Communist.

    We have a holiday called Labor Day in September. (No one really celebrates that either, but it's typically a day off just before school starts). Some Catholic churches still do a "May crowning" tradition starting on May 1 but it's less common than pre-1960s.

    May Day was originally a holiday to mark the coming of summer but it was hijacked by Communists at the turn of the century.

    I always knew there was a communist part to 'may day', I'm glad to learn I was right. I think of it as something I'd be screaming out as an airplane was going down 'may day' :lol:

    Oh my friend, I didn't know that the United States does not participate in May Day, thank you for the science, but May Day is indeed International Labor Day. Last year, some merchants were still doing promotions for Labor Day.
