I remember that mnemonic. I was also taught to count the knuckles on 1 hand, including the space between them. Each knuckle is 31 days and each space is 28 (29 in a leap year) or 30.
You wonder why nobody has changed the calendar to fit today’s needs. Everything else changes. The Hebrew calendar is Year 5782. Do they know something we don’t?
I hate to break it to Thor, but that accounts for only 364 days. The solar year is 365.25. Thor’s way means we would celebrate spring in the fall every 182 years.

The calendar is all wrong, we don’t even know what year it is? AD or BC.

Does Thor’s calendar count the years down?…
