Journée des questions idiotes

28 septembre, dimanche

Day of Silly Questions is an unusual and fun holiday celebrated annually on September 28. Its purpose is to remind people not to be afraid of asking questions, even if they seem strange or silly. After all, questions help us gain new knowledge and discover unexpected truths.

History of the holiday
The idea of the holiday originated in the USA in the 1980s. Teachers noticed that students were often embarrassed to ask questions in class, fearing they would look foolish. To dispel this fear, the Day of Silly Questions was created, when any question, even the silliest, is considered important and appropriate.

Significance of the holiday
The day reminds us that:

* asking questions is natural and beneficial
* every question can lead to unexpected discoveries
* the ability to ask is a step toward growth and self-education
* there are no truly stupid questions if they help understand something new

* on social media, people share humorous and funny questions
* companies use the holiday for team-building, organizing contests for the funniest or most unexpected question
