There are many reasons to hate pretty much every day of the week, but for most, it is Thursday which garners the least admiration. You might all be screaming "What about Monday!?" at me, but we all seem to accept Monday as being a day of no hope, it is the start of having to leave the house and pretend to be responsible for five more days. But Thursday offers a promise that things are almost over...but you're still not actually that close to being done with the week. Regardless of just how close to Friday the fourth day of the week puts you, it is in fact still not Friday, therefore it is not nearly the weekend, you are simply at work, having to continue doing things for another two days. Once Wednesday has ticked over, a great deal of us suddenly start tricking ourselves into believing that we're about to clock off for the week, when in reality, you get to roughly 10a.m. and realise that the last hour seemed to have taken six decades to pass over, and there's still seven hours to go before you can...go home and come back again the next day. Thursday is a fraud, simple as that; it encourages hope and boosts morale just in time for it to be decimated by the mid-morning realisation that you're only just halfway through your week. What's more, Thursday inspires thousands of "hilarious" e-cards - such as the one used in the title of this section - to appear on your Facebook page, all of which declaring some witty remark about how it's almost time to get out of your mind drunk again in an attempt to cheer us all up. These cards will most likely be followed up by further ones the next morning with a similar message, but this time telling you that it's Friday; an endless flow of unspeakably unfunny sentiments all thanks to the false promise offered by Thursday.
