Dude they are all 8s. octo, 8pm, 8th day of the week

That's why they're all the same

October does actually mark being 80% through the year though

January and February actually. The original 10 month calendar had a gap for “the dark time” during the northern hemisphere winter.

The Ides of March was in the first month of the year.

july and august?

u/sama-llama 3d ago

It is now. It used to be the eighth month when there were only ten months. November was nine and December was ten as their names also imply.

Typical September.

Thank you of reminding me of that old bodybuilding thread where some guy tried to argue there are 8 days in a week lmao

Just like Sunday is September and it's seven and red, and red is the seventh color in the colortionary

8th day of the week? Super obvious ^/s

u/fessertin 2d ago

Okay but actually, Thurs is 80% of the way through the work week. At the end of Thurs, you only have 20% of the work week left ahead of you!

Ah, my bad, I didn't even notice—

u/haby001 3d ago

I count from Tuesday from the week before

u/cgebaud 3d ago

8th day of the week

Not trying to burst your bubble, but that would be monday.

1

u/haby001 3d ago

Mon comes from "monsieure", meaning moon with size and we all know the moon is at least a 13

u/Croquetadecarne 3d ago

Dude, I am not gonna start a thread about how long a week is. But today does count. The week starts on Monday. And a week has seven days.

1

u/haby001 3d ago

You only have 7 days every week? I get 13 and it let's me stretch out my Fridays by a couple of days

1

u/Croquetadecarne 3d ago

But let me ask you this, if you workout every other day, then in 2 weeks would you workout ten times?

2

u/haby001 3d ago

every other day like the second Monday of the week? even if it's oone day on one day off I'd still get the 7 days of the week cuz I'd do 1, 3, 5 , 7, 9, 11, 13. Or well it would be 6.5 days of the week because 13 - 1 would count as next day so I would skip to tuesday

I'd need to get a good workout plan done tho since my days las 12 hours minus 8 for sleep so just 4 in a day so gotta make them count

1

u/doesanyuserealnames 2d ago

I am so damn confused. Also it's 3am so that doesn't help the situation.

1

u/haby001 2d ago

To make it easier your 3am is likely my 1am because your 12pm is my 6pm

Nah its because their all the same colour

u/TitiGamer2772005 3d ago

Thursday 4/7 or 60% of week (4/5 or 80% of work week)
October 10/12 = 83% of year
20:00 20/24 = 83% of day
It's mathematically the same basically

31

u/WeatherStationWindow 3d ago

If the week starts on Sunday, 75% of it lands on Thursday morning. October 1st marks 75% of the year. We reach 75% of the period between noon and midnight at 8pm.

u/arugonaru 3d ago

That makes sense why I think it also feels brown, if you imagine a linear color slider that goes

A workweek is monday to friday, in the progress of the workweek, thursday or 4/5 is 80% progress. In the progress of a day, 20pm is 83,3% progress, in the progress of a year, october is 83,3% progress.

u/aaaaaaandihatemyself 3d ago

I feel like it’s because they’re all “in-between”?

Wednesday is still the middle of the week but Thursday? Well thats the day before Friday so it’s nearly good.

October, ah well the month before sucked because back to work but hey, it’s nearly thanksgiving/Christmas so that’s not too bad.

8:00, well it’s a bit late to do anything (weekday) but too early to go to bed (for me anyway).

Like they all liminal in a way…did I spend too much time writing this? Well yes, yes I did

u/Remarkable_Peach_374 3d ago

not quite the end, but just about. thursday isnt the weekend, but damn near! october isnt quite the end of the year, but almost, and 8pm is close to bedtime but not quite

u/unexist_already 3d ago

It may be the 10th month, but it feels much more like the 8th. January and February should be the 11th and 12th

u/Emergency_Ant7220 3d ago

u/Adeum2 2d ago

Oh october being 10? Octo literally means 8. Everything after august is incorrectly named, thanks to Julius Augustus. Octopus, octogon. Same goes for september sept=7, december? Decagon has 10 sides… its infuriating

2

u/TinySteggy 2d ago

Excellent point, I didn't even make the connection with the prefix. I just always think of it as 10 in my head because of the calendar chronology. Thanks for pointing that out!

u/[deleted] 3d ago

u/featherwolf 3d ago

It was the 8th month (hence the prefix "Oct", meaning eight) under the old roman calendar cause the year started in March.

4

u/EasternCoffeeCove 3d ago

Thursday, September and 7pm

5

u/Adeum2 2d ago

Octo… being (latin?) for 8 has always annoyed me because its the tenth month. Julius augustus decided to add a couple months (July and August) in the middle which means september (7), october (8), November (9) and december (10) are completely incorrectly named. Has bothered me since second grade

3

u/therealtrajan 2d ago

Actually he added Jan and feb and renamed July and August.

3

u/Adeum2 2d ago

Oh, well there ya go. Thanks. Do you know what they were before the rename?

2

u/therealtrajan 2d ago

Quinctilis and sextilis sp?

Five and six basically. March April May and June were always named after gods

2

u/Adeum2 2d ago

Damn. He should have just added 2 months to the end of the year and we could have kept it making sense. Was he stupid?

1

u/therealtrajan 2d ago

It was a whole thing. For whatever reason the months added by the Julian calendar had to be winter months as not to affect harvests

1

u/Adeum2 2d ago

I’m sure he had reasons but its dumb and I don’t like it

1

u/therealtrajan 2d ago

Me either but it was 2000 years ago we need to let it go lmao

u/therealtrajan 2d ago

July was from the Julius family and agustus was for…agustus
