What national day is it today?
1st: Guac day with 33325 mentions across social media.
Did you know that avocados were known as 'ahuacatl' or 'testicle' by the Aztecs due to their shape? Luckily, the Spanish conquistadors had trouble pronouncing that, so we ended up with the more palatable 'aguacate', which morphed into 'avocado'. And that's a relief because 'national testicle dip day' doesn't have quite the same ring to it!

Did you know that some resourceful Prisoners of War during the Vietnam War established a tap code system to communicate with each other through the walls of their cells, using knocks rather than the latest phone app!

Did you know that during the Great Depression in the 1930s, the unemployment rate reached a staggering 24.9% in the United States? Talk about uncertain times!
