Big holiday on the day after Christmas in the United Kingdom and many of the Commonwealth countries. Boxes of gift items and money were distributed to one's servants or employees--probably the origin of Christmas bonuses.
On Boxing Day in the Middle Ages, the Lord of the Manor gave boxes of tools, money and other things his serfs needed to do their work in his lands. Today, boxes of clothing and food items are given to the needy.

Plaid Day, May 18th, is the day where the sheer magnificence and general wonderfulness of plaid is celebrated around the world. Plaid Day is celebrated by wearing plaid on your person. Those who refuse to adorn themselves in the Sacred Flannel are duly sacrificed. Serious Plaidies indulge in tribal plaid face paint and the ceremonial burning of a kilt. Common phrases used on Plaid Day include, "I'm plaid with that," "You're TOTALLY plaiding today," and "That's SO plaid."
Jessica celebrated Plaid Day by dying her hair in plaid stripes.
