March 11 - 🔧 Worship of Tools Day: Because Even Hammers Deserve a Little Love 🔩
🛠️ What is Worship of Tools Day?
March 11 is Worship of Tools Day, the one glorious day of the year where we bow down to the unsung heroes of every DIY project: tools. Yes, those wrenches, hammers, and screwdrivers that have been chilling in the garage, silently judging you every time you pass by without fixing that squeaky door.
This day is all about showing appreciation for the gadgets that help us build, fix, and occasionally destroy (accidentally, of course). From the humble tape measure that tells you "Nope, that couch definitely won’t fit" to the mighty power drill that makes you feel like a construction deity, tools deserve their moment in the spotlight—and today’s that day.
⚡ Who Created Worship of Tools Day and Why?
Surprise! The exact origin of Worship of Tools Day is a mystery (which feels on-brand because when was the last time you found the exact tool you needed when you needed it?). Some believe it was created by DIY enthusiasts who realized their trusty tools deserved a little more respect. Others say it started as a tongue-in-cheek holiday for folks who “borrow” tools and conveniently forget to return them.
Regardless of who started it, we can all agree: tools make the world go 'round—or at least make IKEA furniture less impossible.
🔩 Why Celebrate Worship of Tools Day?
Because That Allen Wrench Deserves Recognition: IKEA gave you 100 pieces and one tiny wrench—show some gratitude.
Tools Make Us Feel Powerful: Holding a power drill = instant confidence. (No, you don’t need to drill anything. Just hold it. Feel the power.)
They’ve Been There for You: Broken shelves. Flat tires. That ambitious bookshelf project. Tools = the real MVPs.
Because They’re Mysteriously Missing When You Need Them: Might as well celebrate them when you find them.
DIY Therapy: Fixing something yourself? Cheap therapy. Tools help you hold it (and your life) together.
