• Researchers Find Americans Hate Nearly Every Weekday Equally

[quote] We may say we hate Mondays, but research suggests Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays are equally loathed. US investigators who looked at a poll of 340,000 people found moods were no worse on Mondays than other working days, bar Friday. People were happier as they approached the weekend, lending support for the concept of "that Friday feeling". The report authors told the Journal of Positive Psychology that the concept of miserable Mondays should be ditched. Prof Arthur Stone of Stony Brook University said: "Despite our global beliefs about lousy Mondays, we conclude that this belief should be abandoned. "Cultural myths may vastly over-emphasise actual day of the week mood patterns." Similarly, claims that the Monday of the last full week of January - dubbed "blue Monday" - is the most depressing of the whole year have been debunked by others. Prof Stone's team analysed data collected by Gallup from telephone interviews. People reported more enjoyment and happiness and less stress or worry on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays compared with the rest of the week. Prof Stone says it is the contrast in mood from Sunday to Monday that has led to Mondays being unfairly singled out.[/quote] [url]http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-19316104[/url] How bitter, to think that everyone only have monday blues
slow news day
Quick, everyone post how they individually and subjectively differ from the aggregate results of the study or we'll never know what a unique little snowflake you are for liking Thursday.

"I like mondays." "what a faaaaaaag"
I think people like days of the week depending on what happens usually on that day. Student: may like certain days because of favourite lesson and so on. Worker: may hate their job and have to do same thing every day so hates all days equally. It differs from person to person. All about what job you have and what you do during the week.
[QUOTE=Kondor58;37340462]slow news day[/QUOTE] It's just that they [B]hate[/B] Tuesdays...
I'm fine with all days of the week except Sunday and Thursday, which I loathe.
That's not a surprise at all, given that these days also coincide with days they have to work on. Days they have fun on tend to be days they like better. lolobviousarticle
I think sundays are the worst. You just get that depression that sets in going into monday
This is literally the worst day of Sensationalist Headlines I've ever seen. Fuck Tuesdays.
It's weird, because over here, because of the Sabbath, the weekend is on Friday and Saturday-Not Saturday and Sunday, so Sunday is actually the first day of the week. I remember reading a Garfield comic as a kid and thinking "Why the fuck does he hate Mondays?"
i hate tuesday it's not like monday, where there's a sense of community through bitching, but it's not like wednesday, thursday, or friday either, where it's getting close to the weekend it's just a DAY

I hate any day i have to go to work.. I just need to win the lotto so i can take a long ass vacation.
I hate Thursday because it only serves to remind me that it isn't Friday.
All days are the best days
I hate Sundays because it reminds me it's a whole fucking Week of work next day.
You guys need to find work you like doing. Then every day is equally good.
tonight on fox news: are the 'czar' obama's communist policies attempting to make every day equal, like some sick socialist hellhole?

Monday: the day you have to go back to work and first day of the week, soo many days to go Tuesday: the day after it, still too many days to go Wednesday: fuck, still the middle of the fucking week Thursday: almost over, but still one more fucking day Friday: already? In 2 days, I gotta get back to this shit, fuck
Yes, we all hate every fucking day that we have to go to work, and if news broke tonight that an asteroid was going to wipe everything out, nobody from McDonalds to the White House would bother showing up the next day. This isn't news.
I like mondays, I have mondays off
