National Paul Bunyan Day
June 28, 2017
Today, become the subject of a new American folktale. Build a persona worthy of legendary status by exaggerating your existing personality quirks. Friendly? You are so charming the stars shine in daylight just to see your smiling face. Generous? You once donated part of your heart to a transplantee and carried on with your day – your heart’s just that big. In fact, it’s growing all the time. Fond of donuts? You invented donuts. Adopt a wild animal in an unusual color and travel the country together doing good deeds. Post your adventures to Instagram, grow a fanbase, and sign a lucrative endorsement deal with a shoe company.
