I think you'll find it's on 11/14, and they celebrate by building a monument measured in cubits at a temperature of 70 degrees fahrenheit.

Well, they also have a 'world series' with a world champion in a sport that is only played in the US, so...

Sure, Nov 14th this year, but it’s actually the 2nd Thursday in November, so the date changes every year.

Haha that’s a good joke and… oh goddamnit en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_S...

The United States holds an annual U.S. Celebration of World Standards Day, though the U.S. Celebration of World Standards Day planning committee held theirs on 12 October in 2023. In 2024, U.S. Celebration of World Standards Day will be held on November 14, a month after World Standards Day.

World standards? Sounds like globalism. We don't cotton to no standards around here, specially not the global ones.
