Bring Your Kid To Work on Hashtag Holiday Trivia
Welcome to another round of the Hashtag Holiday Trivia, brought to you by Inland Empire Health Plan! It’s Thursday, April 23rd, and the vibe today is random, ridiculous, and weirdly educational.
Let’s unwrap the day:
👩👧 Take Your Son or Daughter to Work Day
Today’s the fourth Thursday in April, which means it’s National Take Your Son or Daughter to Work Day!
One of our hosts almost brought their kiddo in this morning... but the sleepy eyes won. “Go back to bed, sweetie.”
Still, it's a great way to show your kids what you actually do between 9 and 5. (Spoiler: it’s not all coffee and memes.)
🐷 National Pigs in a Blanket Day
Whether you call them hot dog croissants or sleeping sausage snacks, these little baked delights are the stars of the day.
One host admitted they’ve never had pigs in a blanket (cue gasps). We also coined a new term for the larger version: “Pigs in a Sleeping Bag.” Patent pending.
🎤 International New Kids on the Block Day
Yes, they still have a day.
If you know NKOTB, you definitely know:
“I'll Be Loving You (Forever)”
“Hangin' Tough”
“Step by Step”
The control room broke into song... the rest of us pretended not to remember all the words. 😅
💪 National Love Your Thighs Day
You read that right: Love Your Thighs Day is real, and it’s beautiful.
It’s a reminder to love your body—no matter your thigh size, shape, or how much they clap when you walk. 💃 It’s all about confidence, self-love, and embracing what your mama gave you.
So of course, we had to do…
🔥 The Thighs-Themed Pop Quiz!
Question 1: Rock n’ Roll Thighs
AC/DC sang about “American thighs” in which of these classic rock anthems?
A) Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
B) For Those About to Rock, We Salute You
C) You Shook Me All Night Long
Question 2: What is ThighSociety.com?
Sounds spicy, but what does ThighSociety.com actually sell?
A) Anti-chafe shorts
B) Fried chicken fan gear
C) Lower body workout plans
That’s a wrap for today!
Remember: hug your kids, love your thighs, and maybe microwave a pig in a blanket if you’re feeling nostalgic.
Back tomorrow with more weird holidays and pop quiz fun.
