Acceptable holidays?

[greatspiritmonk]

Dudes you are fucking cool. Far fucking out men!

Dudeist holidays: Every day you like for whatever reason. 365 days a year if you are not into the whole brevity thing.

Hmmm.. Welcome to Pagan Lanes, open 365 days a year.

Wait a minute there Pagans have holidays (solstices, equinoxes, and some others) I just forget to actually stop and sacrifice on them. (Speaking as a Zen Existentialist Taoist Postmodernist Pagan Dudeist).

Then you must make up for lost time with a strict sacred beverage regimen, the dudely way of offering sacrifices.

Who wants to celebrate today?  I know I'm going to!

Wait hold the party a minute, we were complimented by Great, and he called us men.

That's not the preferred nomenclature, dude. Although I am a man, and maybe it does surprise you that yes I cry, I much prefer Rev., or Right Reverend if you're not into the whole brevity thing. That's one of the reasons I got ordained.

Ordained on 9/9/1999. There that oughta get Elbowski in here.

Now we can pour the sacred beverage. Take any rug in the house.
Rev.

Sorry Dude, you're right. 

Dudes you are fucking cool. Far fucking out Revs!

See there's another parallel for my Paganism and Dudeism. I worship Bacchus (god of wine), so sacrificing in the Bacchanalian (though a festival, I use this phrase to refer to the Pub) is more than acceptable. 

[greatspiritmonk]

You're a wise man dude.  Fucking A.

[not_exactly_a_lightweight]

A wise publican pagan dudeist. That suits this Rev. fine
Pour us a pint and let the storytellin' begin,

enlighten us to these ways of the Bacchanalian, in the parlance of our times.

Have to say the Bacchanalian parties were so over the top they partied so hard the Senate banned the practice in Rome at one point.

It's the original biting heads off of chickens and full on orgies at this point though.

Have to admit my local pub never quite gets that good though it does have a reputation for loud music, and occasional violence (not that I've seen any of this, the violence that is).

[greatspiritmonk]

They should have sticked to sex and wine.

Dudes, if you want to celebrate Christmas, celebrate Christmas. It doesn't matter, as long as you're celebrating "The Day of The Dude" (March 6).  Beyond that, it's up to you.  Am I wrong?  As far as I can tell, that is the only officially recognized Dudeist holiday.  I personally also celebrate Jeff Bridges' birthday (Dec 4) but that's just, like, my opinion, man.  Or at least another excuse to make my mind limber. 

[meekon5]

Personally I lean towards the Erisian Holy Holiday concept. Make them up as you go along because no-one can argue it shouldn't be an Erisian holiday, i think Dudeism should have the same ethos.

[RevWade]

fuck it man.  just tell them a day or two in advance.  right now I'm on a 7 month + dudeist holiday.
