Oh, dude, let me break it down for you. Christmas fell on different days each year from 1970 to 1981 because the calendar is a tricky little thing. Friday was skipped in those years because of some crazy math stuff with leap years. In the two other leap years between 1970 and 1981, other days were skipped because, you know, the universe likes to keep us on our toes. Like, who even knows what day it is half the time anyway, am I right?
While it's not an entirely straightforward progression (due to leap year), on average Christmas falls on a Friday in one out of every seven years.The last year (prior to 2016) in which Christmas was on a Friday was 2015.
Between 1995 and 2004, Christmas fell on every weekday except Sunday.
Tuesday 25th of December 1962Wednesday 25th of December 1963Friday 25th of December 1964Saturday 25th of December 1965Sunday 25th of December 1966Monday 25th of December 1967Wednesday 25th of December 1968Thursday 25th of December 1969Friday 25th of December 1970Saturday 25th of December 1971Monday 25th of December 1972Tuesday 25th of December 19731968 was a leap year, so Tuesday was skipped, just like Thursday was skipped in 1964 and Sunday was skipped in 1972.
No. It would be better to say: every week on Friday the Friday of every week the week beginning every Friday
Christmas falls on every day of the week, but it falls on some slightly more often than others...The odds of Christmas falling on a Sunday, a Tuesday or a Friday are exactly 14.5% for each.The odds of Christmas falling on a Wednesday or a Thursday are exactly 14.25% for each.The odds of Christmas falling on a Monday or a Saturday are exactly 14% for each.
Assuming they were not born between Christmas and Dec 31, the minimum age to experience Christmas on every day of the week is 10. This includes extra years to make up the days skipped in leap years. Or if you were born Christmas Day: exactly 9 years old. 9 Christmases. It changes by one day every year or two on a leap year. So if you are born on, the 25th of December, a Monday(1), next year it would be Tuesday(2), then Wednesday(3), then a leap year so it would be Friday(4), then Saturday(5), then Sunday(6), Monday(7) again, leap year so it's a Wednesday(8) and finally it would be a Thursday(9).
No, Christmas does not fall on a Wednesday between 2004 and 2014. However, it does fall on a Wednesday during2014, so it is true that Christmas falls on every day of the week at least once during the period of 2004 through 2014 (inclusive).
Due to leap years, days get skipped over. So a day on a date can get skipped over meaning there is a longer gap between it coming around again. Christmas Day was last on a Monday in 2006. In 2011, Christmas Day was a Sunday. As 2012 was a leap year, Monday was skipped over and Christmas Day was on a Tuesday. It has taken until 2017 for it to come around again to being on a Monday, the 11 year gap. The other effect of a leap year is that a day can come around sooner, as soon as 5 years. In this case Monday will come around again in 6 years, as there is one leap year between now and then, the year 2020, skipping one of the 7 days of the week. If you look at the following list of days Christmas is on between 2006 and 2023 you can see days being skipped. You can see an 11 year gap between 2010 and 2021 for Saturday, and a 5 year gap between 2007 and 2012 for Tuesday. A day comes around again every 5, 6 or 11 years.

In 2011 Christmas 2011 falls on a Sunday. In 2012 Christmas 2012 falls on Monday!
