Well I don't shun the Japanese calender because they don't have their days or months named after deities.

Though oddly enough, the Japanese word for Dontbry literally translates to the smiley - bleepdayites word for it... smiley - erm

No I mean if you translate out the individual kanji (well not individual, because "day" is represented by two) it still comes out to be the you-know-who's equivalent to Dontbry.

If you're confused here's another example: the Japanese word for Japan is Nihon (The word Japan comes from gradual butchery of the Chinese word for it as it traveled to Europe). The kanji as a whole it means Japan; however, individually they mean "sun" and "origin", respectively.

In the case of their word for Dontbry, both translate to the same thing (if you translate the whole to the smiley - bleepdayite word).

We could make a list... You don't want:

* Poundland instant smiley - coffee
* Windows Vista
* An Audit
* Er... I've run out of ideas.

Did those help you narrow it down any? smiley - silly
