Observed annually on September 9th, Wonderful Weirdos Day is a holiday that celebrates the people whom society has deemed strange, unusual, or eccentric. These are the people who march to their own beat and don’t really care much about what the rest of us think about them.

Who can be considered a weirdo? Well, it really depends on a person’s point of view as to what constitutes weirdness. Some people think wearing funny hats is weird, or dancing through the frozen food aisle of the local grocery store is weird.

It all depends on a person’s perspective. All that we can say is that most people recognize weird when they see it. This is the holiday for people to bring out their inner weirdo and have some fun.
