Mexico's Independence Day is September 16th. Way to go, LJ.

seriously LJ, way to be illiterate.

No kidding.

Well, if anything, Happy Children's Day. :D

I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who noticed this today. XD

[dominochan.livejournal.com]

Yeah, this was a major WTF moment on my end. "Independence day"? Really? XD

[jigglygrlcarrie.livejournal.com]

..Oh hey. They changed it to "cinco." The original prompt had "Cinqo." Curious they left the question up but changed the subject line. I guess they realized there was no way to hide the fact now.

[dominochan.livejournal.com]

Oh, man... if they had spelled it "Cinq", that would have caused some issues. Since Cinco de Mayo was a victoly over the French.

[jigglygrlcarrie.livejournal.com]

Indeed, indeed. On that note, one of the earlier responses to this (back when it was still Cinqo) made me chuckle:

"DEAR STUPID WORLD: CINCO DE MAYO IS NOT MEXICO'S INDEPENDENCE DAY. I BET SOME FRENCH JERK TOLD YOU SO."

I theorize this entire writer's block is an elaborate French conspiracy.

(Insert some manner of dirty frenchman joke here, at your leisure.)

Man, that was my first thought, too. 8[ Good job, el jay.

[dominochan.livejournal.com]

All because they couldn't do simple research. :|

[dominochan.livejournal.com]

You think this might be a conspiracy too?

THEY WILL TAKE OVER WITH BAGUETTES!

...actually a baguette sounds good right about now.

[nanaki-muyo.livejournal.com]

You could kill a man with a week old baguette.

good old blunt force trauma to the head. My favorite kind.

I saw this earlier and got iritated. I was waiting for you to notice. :)
