Week 818: Name the Day

February is Sinus Pain Awareness Month:

For those who aren't aware their sinuses hurt.

On this Memorial Day weekend, we celebrate a holiday that brings forth a mix of emotions, from sorrow to gratitude to the joy of the imminent summer. On the other hand, the host of other "special" days, weeks and months determined by various interests -- National Oatmeal Month, say, or National Mole Day -- prove most inspiring in their potential for mockery. Ta-da! This week: Cite an actual holiday or one of these silly commemorative days, weeks or months for which you can find previous evidence, and supply a snarky description or slogan. There are fruitful lists online at http://emotionscards.com/locations.html and http://aware.easilyamused.org, but we'll accept other finds as well, especially if you can point the Empress toward your source.

Winner gets the Inker, the official Style Invitational trophy. Second place gets a pack of genuine $3 bills depicting John Kerry with his finger up his nose and, on the back, the Eiffel Tower, in some sort of right-wing screedy humor presumably dating from 2004. Donated by the never-screedy Beverley Sharp.

Other runners-up win a coveted Style Invitational Loser T-shirt or Loser Mug. Honorable Mentions get one of the lusted-after Style Invitational Magnets. First Offenders get a smelly tree-shaped air "freshener" (Fir Stink for their First Ink). One prize per entrant per week. Send your entries by e-mail to losers@washpost.com or by fax to 202-334-4312. Deadline is Monday, June 1. Put "Week 818" in the subject line of your e-mail or it risks being ignored as spam. Include your name, postal address and phone number with your entry. Contests are judged on the basis of humor and originality. All entries become the property of The Washington Post. Entries may be edited for taste or content. Results will be published June 20. No purchase required for entry. Employees of The Washington Post, and their immediate relatives, are not eligible for prizes. Pseudonymous entries will be disqualified. This week's contest was suggested by Russell Beland. This week's Honorable Mentions name is by Kevin Dopart; the revised title for next week's contest is by Tom Witte.

Report From Week 814

In which we asked you to breed "grandfoals" from the winning horse names from Week 810: another year, another outstanding crop, although it must be conceded that many excellent entries referred to the, er, digestive system. (See a lengthy list of foals "sired" by Restraining Ordure online at http://www.washingtonpost.com/styleconversational.)
