Is it Wednesday Chicken day?

every day can be Wednesday Chicken day if you're not a coward/jk

Okay but actually this ask is hilarious to me because of the backstory behind wednesday chicken as a keepers meme. Which I shall divulge in this post.

So Skylar is a time-traveler. Felix is also a time-traveler, but manages (usually) to keep himself more linearly following the universal timestream. Unfortunately though, this means Felix and Skylar's interactions are all over the place in their own personal timestreams. (for example in one meeting Felix is 65 and Skylar is 326, then the next time Skylar comes across Felix and they team up it's the next day from his perspective, but for Felix it's been 20 years and in that space of time he's interacted with Skylar numerous times that this 326 yod Skylar has not experienced yet and numerous times that he has)

I have no idea if that was comprehensible, I've always struggled to describe time theory lol

Anyway. One afternoon Skylar decides to do something nice for his buddy and goes out to buy him some fried chicken. It's Wednesday, they're chilling, Felix mentions that he's hungry. He goes out, buys the chicken (definitely not with cash from Felix's bedroom drawer. people don't accept gold coins as payment anymore smh) and teleports himself back to the house... but it's no longer Wednesday. He accidentally went to the wrong time. And so begins a saga of Skylar trying to find the correct time- the correct Wednesday- so he can give Felix the chicken. He's planned out in his head the way he wants to present it- announcing "Wednesday chicken!" as he enters the room, but to no avail. It's never Wednesday. There are many times Felix responds with pity, "Oh no, you're doing Wednesday Chicken?" and the dread builds in Skylar's heart. Will he ever succeed? Will he ever be free from this endless loop of always weekdays never Wednesday?

We're still undecided if he ever makes it. 😔

All this to say, Wednesday Chicken is not a concept bound by any calendar invented by man. It is a concept of the HEART. Feast my friends, any day can be Wednesday Chicken day if you choose to make it. But it has to be Wednesday.
