The game "opposite day" is not an actual "day" but a semantics game where everyone says the opposite of what they mean. The amusement often comes from observing others who encounter the players and do not know a game is underway.

∙ 11y agoThere is no fixed day for "opposite day" which is not an actual "day" but a semantics game where everyone says the opposite of what they mean.
Some sources have promulgated January 25, others say the 25th of every month, and others the 21st of each month. There does not seem to be any consistent "celebration" or custom, as it were. This might be in keeping with the fact that if someone said he knew what day it was, he would mean that he did not. Or if he said that it was not today, it would mean that it was.

If you have to be opposite on opposite day can there ever be an opposite day if you are opposite on opposite day?
If you have to be opposite on opposite day, that makes it a day, and then there was no opposite day. But that can't be true since you HAVE to be opposite, which means that you have to be normal even though there is an opposite day because you are supposed to be opposite on opposite day, which means that you act normal as if it was a normal day, because that is the opposite of opposite day. (This is a classic "liar's paradox". Since there is already an opposite day, you should have a normal day because that is the opposite of an opposite day. But then it is not an opposite day.)

Does "Opposite Day" really exist?
The simple explanation of "Opposite Day" is when children declare they mean the opposite of what they say like, "I love doing chores." However, by declaring January 25th as the official "Opposite Day" it is not, in fact, opposite day because the opposite of opposite day is a normal day. So is it actually opposite day? This is an ancient logical paradox called the Liar’s Paradox which often takes the form of “I am a liar” or “This sentence is false.” Because the sentence is self-referential and negative.
