National Just Because Day
National Just Because Day offers up an opportunity to do stuff…just because. Feel free to celebrate this day any way you choose. Just because!
Every day we all do things that are expected or required of us. Sometimes we even do things because we have to do them, we don’t know why. Well, on this occasion, that does not apply. This day is a chance to do something without rhyme or reason.
What would you REALLY like to do today? Remember, you don't have to have a good reason, or any reason, to do it. Do it just because. Threads like "Does Anyone Like Bourbon" or "Grillin, Chillin and Smokin" come to mind. Today can also fit with the recent National Lazy Day - maybe you just don't want to anything - just because. What works for you?

Someone learning English has to learn that "just because" is an idiom, as trying to understand its meaning from the words is not productive. I didn't research that statement, but posted it just because.
There you go! Hopefully not too many on our forum are just learning English. More like me, who never really learned it.
OK sure...what the heck !
The French are good at 3 things, cooking, making wine and communicating a thought with an expressive saying. ''C'est La Vie'' is a great one. My point...what the hell is my point ?..oh yeah. Sometimes learning from other languages helps us to express a thought better than we can in our native language.
oui.
"Je ne sais quoi literally means "I don't know what" in French." via dictionary.com
FYI It is the motto of this forum.
I don't know about that FPD...😉
It does. One of the dumbest French sayings is Sacre Bleue. Trully translates to sacred blue.
what almost rhymes with squat.
I just read this thread.....just because I had to.....
No offense Don. Mod duty here.....😛
maybe you can choose to not re-read it, just because. In any case IRYD
From Google: "alteration of sacré Dieu ‘holy God’." Sorta like saying "I Swanee" instead of "I swear". Sorta.
Threw that in, just because.
Yes, commenting here has that certain Je ne sais quoi, doesn't it? <- now THAT is dumb.
