Octember it will be after October. The names will be just as incorrect as they have been for way too long but if anyone wanted the names and order to correspond to their own meaning it would have been fixed by now.

A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

What was the original idea of our calendar? And did every month have 8 weeks or so? Were weeks longer?

I adore this shit lol
Huh am I missing something?
13 x 28 = 364 but a year has 365,2425 days
The new year day is a transition day and is not in the calendar, but rather in between years

Jesse, what the hell are you talking about??
Before we get too crazy, let's consider for a second the importance of 12 in units of measure. It shows up in time: minute, second, length (imperial ft), and I'm sure many other places.
The benefit is it's evenly divisible by 2, 3, and 4. How would we define seasons with 13 months?
Base twelve only because Babylonians.
I mean, it was a pretty good idea. The only reason we happen to be so 10 centric is because that's how we happened to evolve our manipulators.

What would we call the 13th month?
Since the 12th month is December, a 13th month should obviously be called Undecember (the undec- prefix meaning 11 in Latin).
Better yet, just stick the new month in the middle of the calendar, but don't rename the months that have numbers in their name. It already worked once (thanks, Romans).

I've definitely thought about this.
Is it true though?
364/28 = 13
The Human Calculator Calendar by Scott Flansburg: https://calendars.fandom.com/wiki/Human_Calculator_Calendar
As thewitchslayer says, the lunar month has 29.5 days. English common law has a "lunar month" which is 28 days though.
