It’s Palindrome Week

It’s a palindrome week.

That means all the dates are symmetrical and read the same backward and forward.

It's Palindrome Week

Lovers of words or phrases that read the same forward or backward, rejoice! This week is unofficially palindrome week.

In the US (and a few other countries that conventionally write dates as MM/DD/YY), every date this week is a palindrome. Thanks to Akira Okrent at Mental Floss for pointing out this fortuitous occurrence.

Tuesday, for instance, is 5/12/15. Or, if you want to write it backward, it’s 5/12/15. You get the idea.
