It might not be obvious to everyone. We’re always willing to answer questions for readers who don’t het some of the references. Sometimes I don’t, and I have to look things up before I draw the strip.
Considering I was sure they wouldn’t be able to pick November 23rd (Doctor Who’s 50th), I thought they’d fall back on 11/12/13. Which was also a weekday. shrugs
Rita isn’t going to let them have the day off, is she?
A Monday for the wedding? Sounds good. Party all weekend, have the wedding and call in sick for the rest of the week. …. It really doesn’t matter which day…as long as Roy follows through and they get married…live long, love well, and prosper!
May the 4th seems like a punnishing cheat on May 25th when Star Wars — Eposode IV — actually opened… doesn’t it? Back when Han shot first…?.Just sayin’…!

Check out the Wikipedia page for “The Twelfth of Never.” The first three paragraphs are weird.

Great day for a geek wedding! They also could go for 3/14 (Pi Day) or 10/23 (Mole day).

I suggest March 22nd, which is “International Talk Like William Shatner Day”. Also, the Shat’s birthday.

Considering that is the day I got married, I highly approve.
