What?!? It's Ben's Birthday! This should be a global day off, with cultural traditions that accompany the celebration of BenDay. The day begins with a costumed fun run. Everyone who participates, even if they don't finish, gets a T-shirt with that year's winning BenRun design. There are the exchanges of presents, the bigot piñatas, treasure hunts to find the secret hidden voucher for a free pair of high end trainers. A parade, of course, music, dancing, a huge buffet of the most interesting and amazing vegan and vegetarian food, all leading up to an appearance of Ben himself, sheepishly waving to the crowds (mostly televised, with only one group fortunate enough to see him onstage in person), saying "All this fuss, just for me? Please, just be a good ally, do good in this world, and what else do we say?" Ben cups his hand to his ear, as the crowd shouts their part in this well-known call and response: "We suffer no fools!" Then huge applause as Ben leaves the stage and joins his family waiting in the wings, wearing their best BenFest attire, ready to head to the traditional feast. A variety show takes over the stage, with the transworld dance team headliners leading everyone in beloved BenSongs. The crowd is moving and grooving as they all sing along. They all know the words. No one is left out. Everyone is included in this celebration. It's Ben a beautiful day. Dance Party Time! ⭐️🍰🎶🎈🎉🎁🎂🕺 @TheBreadmonkey@beige.party
