It's supposed to be a day of festivities to celebrate the coming year and fertility. Traditional May Day celebrations include gathering wildflowers, weaving floral garlands, crowning a May king and queen, and dancing around a decorated Maypole.

Except now it's been turned into something quite different.

Well, ok, not absurd but odd.

I would prefer a fxxking-off-work day personally

In my region, we still celebrate May 1st with fertility rituals -- maypoles, men wearing bells hitting sticks together, that kind of thing. It's charmingly ridiculous.

Tomorrow - 1st of May, in Romania, we celebrate Labor Day by staying at home ๐Ÿ˜…, partying. Do you celebrate this holiday in your country? If yes, how?
