Sure, February is 3.5% longer this year being divisible by 4, but not by 100, but also isn’t divisible by 400. Holy hell I need a smoke.
The interesting part this year though is Wisconsin and Michigan deciding to insert a day of 70+ degree weather for their bonus day this year. Why don’t they do that every year?!
Since we don’t know the answer to that question, we instead discuss the origins of leap year, how it’s evolved over the centuries, and some interesting nuances from the calendars that preceded and supported leap year. Look, it’s effectively a free day for you this month, what better way to fill it than with some good ol’ nonsense from Nonsense?
