Happy Monday!
Today is…Blame It on the Large Hadron Collider Day
#BlameItOnTheLargeHadronColliderDay
Blame It on the Large Hadron Collider Day was created in 2008 to shift blame for losing things from the people who actually lost them, to the Large Hadron Collider. “The Large Hadron Collider probably has your car keys, your missing socks, and your rent money, perhaps sucked into a black hole,” one source notes. The day takes place on the anniversary of the date that the Large Hadron Collider was first fired up in 2008.
How to Observe
Spend the day blaming the Large Hadron Collider whenever something goes wrong, particularly if you can’t find one of your items. It’s likely your item was stolen by the LHC and is now inside of it, or a black hole it created. In order to get your item back, perhaps you could visit the LHC, at the CERN headquarters in Switzerland. There are other ways the day could be celebrated as well. You could listen to “Large Hadron Rap,” which was written by CERN employee Katherine McAlpine. You could also watch the episode of World’s Toughest Fixes titled “Atom Smasher,” which deals with the repair of the Large Hadron Collider in 2008; watch a 2012 horror film called Decay, which takes place at the Large Hadron Collider; or watch the documentary Particle Fever, which is about the scientists at CERN.
