What are you talking about?  The Gregorian calendar is the calendar used in most of the world.[1] It is named after Pope Gregory XIII, who introduced it in October 1582. The calendar spaces leap years to make the average year 365.2425 days long, approximating the 365.2422-day tropical year that is determined by the Earth's revolution around the Sun.

Oldbuddy, I laughed, but then I love a good pun.  I think maybe some people are not seeing the humor and taking it very literally.

I think Greg (or Ian - depending on whether their DAY is a celebration or a chore) gets shafted by having Greg getting picked two days in a row every single week - if you look at the Sunday to Monday rollover.  Maybe it can run on a two week cycle just to make it fair?

    It looks like a Gregorian Chant to me.
    I like the Gregorian Chant better than the Gregorian Calendar because
    the Gregorian Calendar has created a lot of legal problems...to the point
    that some people prefer not to use it.

Actually it runs on an infinite cycle, so it balances out automatically.

I'm proud to say I "got it" right away. Not always the case with me. Thanks for a good laugh.

Did you think of it yourself? If so, you deserve a commendation.
