Non controversial? Perhaps, but it is certainly a varied date.


Hindu New Year, Diwali, or sometimes spelled Divali, is celebrated late
October or early November.

The Chinese New year is celebrated on the first day of the First Moon of
the lunar calendar. The corresponding date in the solar calendar varies
from as early as January 21st to as late as February 19th.

It would appear DxAss is actually a Venezuelan citizen who celebrates
New Years ALL year long. A long overdue time for washing one's clothes,
I should think.

In my country, people usually wear yellow underwear on New Year's Day.
