One the source of "Friday, Friday", and the other of "Friday, I'm in Love".

Rebecca Black, "Friday," 2011

Yesterday was Thursday, Thursday
Today i-is Friday, Friday (Partyin')
We-we-we so excited
We so excited
We gonna have a ball today

Tomorrow is Saturday
And Sunday comes after ... wards
I don't want this weekend to end

Robert Smith of The Cure, "Friday, I'm in Love," 1992

I don't care if monday's blue
tuesday's grey and wednesday too
thursday i don't care about you
it's friday I'm in love

monday you can fall apart
tuesday wednesday break my heart
thursday doesn't even start
it's friday I'm in love

saturday wait
and sunday always comes too late
but friday never hesitate...

I don't care if monday's black
tuesday wednesday heart attack
thursday never looking back
it's friday I'm in love

monday you can hold your head
tuesday wednesday stay in bed
or thursday watch the walls instead
it's friday I'm in love

saturday wait
and sunday always comes too late

And yet, even earlier, "Lady Madonna," by the Beetles, 1968

Friday night arrives without a suitcase
Sunday morning creeping like a nun
Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlegs
See how they run

Lady Madonna, baby at your breast

Pa, pa, pa
See how they run

Lady Madonna lying on the bed
Listen to the music playing in your head

Tuesday afternoon is never ending
Wednesday morning papers didn't come
Thursday night your stockings needed mending
See how they run

And even earlier, "Solomon Grundy," published by James Orchard Halliwell in 1842

Solomon Grundy,
Born on a Monday,
Christened on Tuesday,
Married on Wednesday,
Took ill on Thursday,
Grew worse on Friday,
Died on Saturday,
Buried on Sunday.
That was the end,
Of Solomon Grundy

Solomon Grundy,

Grew worse on Friday,
Died on Saturday,
Buried on Sunday.
That was the end,
Of Solomon Grundy

Also published by Halliwell at around the same time was a version of this "fortune-telling" song:

Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace,
Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go,
Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child works hard for his living,
And the child that is born on the Sabbath day
Is bonny and blithe, and good and gay.​

(The original story for the Star Trek episode may have drawn from a version in which "Friday's child is full of woe.")

Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go,
Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child works hard for his living,
And the child that is born on the Sabbath day
Is bonny and blithe, and good and gay.​

I've got to say I love the fact that they prophesise something good for everyone... Except those fuckers born on Wednesday. They'll just be depressed instead . Though I suppose Thursday and Saturday could be interpreted as bad things as well.

auntie, I love you!

I figure this one could prove useful on the board.

Not sure if this has been posted here yet. But I saw it on facebook and had a good laugh:

Sage advice from Wil Wheaton (@wilw) via Phil Plait (@BadAstronomer) on Twitter:

 

[auntiehill]

^ I like that.

 

[Deckerd]

That made me jump.

 

[Misfit Toy]

That made me jump.

Me too. My first thought was "What did I do to piss off Deckerd???"

 

[Deckerd]

I need to get ITL to separate out that gif so I can spring it on people when they least expect it.

 

[ITL]

Good job I clicked on this thread, then!

I assume this is what you meant....

 

[Deckerd]

Yeah I need on that I can just yell random things. Like NO PONIES.
