My least favourite day has to be Wednesday because it's still in the middle of the week, you get two more days to battle through and it just feels like it won't ever end.

Monday I can deal with because you know it's only the start, Tuesday it's meh for me.

Thursday I'm okay cos I'm gearing up for Friday and the weekend.

What about you?

Thursday because it's not quite friday

[–] FeloniousPunk@lemmy.today 1 points 5 hours ago

I hate every day - I prefer the night.

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Wednesday is new comic book day so I'm good.
Tuesday is new music and home video day.
Friday is new theatrical movie day.

So between Monday, Thursday, Saturday, or Sunday?

I guess Thursday. It's just kind of "there". Not the start of anything, not the end of anything, it's just... blah.

i never could get the hang of thursdays.

Friday, I'm in love. On another note, learned I was born on a Friday, just today.

"battle through". :)

I feel like you are young... Im more like the old soldier who is tired of fighting, and going into retirement.

My least favorite day is Monday because it all starts again, the week, from the beginning, just like it has 750 times before in the last 15 work years. It's really getting old by now.

[–] Platypus@lemmings.world 2 points 11 hours ago

The ones I have to work or being outside

[–] Ziro427@lemmy.world 9 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I put forth the motion that Tuesday is the worst day. Monday is Monday, but it is a fresh start, at least. The week could still turn out ok. Wednesday is at least the half way point. Thursday is good because it is almost Friday. And Friday is Friday. But Tuesday has nothing going for it, it's Monday without being a fresh start.

This meme was obviously made when "Luigi" was just the secondary character in a video game franchise.

[–] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 3 points 14 hours ago

Ill go with wednesday when working a normal work week. tuesday and thursday tend to have more specials to.

[–] Soulifix@kbin.melroy.org 2 points 12 hours ago

Sunday.

Everything closes early and some things are just outright unavailable for that one day. Need to get things done during the weekend? It better be all on Saturday because Sunday doesn't give a fuck about what you need to deal with.

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 13 hours ago

Yesterday? Tomorrow? Pick one

[–] TokenEffort@sh.itjust.works 4 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Weekends. Public transit is wonky and everywhere is crowded by the Monday-Friday normies. I'm also much more likely to be screamed at, near missed, or swerved into by happy drivers who love driving so much they rush to stop driving as soon as they can. So I make sure I work weekends so my free days off are weekdays where all the asshole drivers and weed addicted teenagers are inside. And I get an extra $40 a week to avoid being trapped in a train with someone who definitely isn't addicted to marijuana who couldn't wait until they were outside to smoke. Thanks Amazon!

Nobody is shopping on a Tuesday afternoon.

No, I don't know who that is

they have a good song about hating the weekends in Seattle.... Amazon is for sure to blame for a lot of it

Life is pretty awesome, I'm lucky enough to enjoy most days. Work's engaging, after work I play sports with friends 3 days a week, other weekdays are organized to fit in chores or other friends. And weekends are for bigger plans and/or chores, plus another soccer game or two with friends.

[–] kescusay@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago (2 children)
[–] NineMileTower@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Why is that day important? I feel like I keep seeing that date posted as a meme or something

[–] kescusay@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

It's the day a bloated orange fascist takes over the federal government of the United States.

[–] NineMileTower@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

I thought that was the 19th

[–] kescusay@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

Nope, it's the 20th.

More like November 5, 2024

[–] seven_phone@lemmy.world 3 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I think Sunday evening, about seven has the most difficulty based solely on position in the week. Throughout your entire life that is the time you are most regularly aware what is being taken from you.

[–] BertramDitore@lemm.ee 1 points 12 hours ago

Yeah I hate Sunday evenings. I’m acutely aware I have to wake up super early the next day, and yet I still have energy from sleeping in an extra hour and just want to hang out. That means I almost always end up going to bed later than I plan, making Mondays suck more than they need to.

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 1 points 13 hours ago

Happy Day of Odin to you today!

[–] shyguyblue@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

As a retail worker, weekends. I don't get to enjoy a day off with everyone else, as I'm usually scheduled weekends. (What i get for showing competence in doing my job)

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 17 hours ago

I don't mind Wednesdays ATM because they're often meeting free. So I can both indulge my need to be distracted and make solid progress on my tickets. That makes the day pass quickly.

Monday's are usually shit. My Sunday tends to be busy, then I sleep poorly because my sleeping brain starts anticipating the alarm 3 hours before it goes off, every other week I have 3 meetings before lunch, and usually a todo list left over from Friday that has grown even larger over the weekend.

[–] stinerman@midwest.social 1 points 14 hours ago

I spend most of Sunday dreading Monday so Sunday it is.

[–] toomanypancakes@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago

I've been tracking my mood for about a year now and I'm consistently least happy on Wednesdays. I'm with you, they suck.

[–] JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee 1 points 16 hours ago

Wednesday is the day I look forward to most as I have a social event on that day, I'd never considered before that it was specifically scheduled to the middle of the week for that reason, but it makes sense.

[–] v4ld1z@lemmy.zip 1 points 17 hours ago

I used to hate Sundays the most out of all. Not because work is starting again but mostly because you can't really do anything on Sundays: can't go shopping, can't go to the city for random activities. Sunday has the potential to be as good as Saturday but only if I actually have something to do. It's gotten better recently, tho

[–] AbouBenAdhem@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

The day the Chicxulub asteroid hit.

Whichever day of the week it was, the subsequent 3.4 billion weeks have not yet balanced out the score.

[–] ocean@lemmy.selfhostcat.com 1 points 18 hours ago

As a researcher everyday is the same. So, either all of them or none of them I guess
