Hey, internet pop culture nerd. Yeah, you. You, who clicked on a headline about what specific date it is during the 1987 classic film of fun and hijinks Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. You are probably aware that on Monday, 5 June, the internet celebrated Ferris Bueller Day – the day when, supposedly, Ferris took his titular day off (5 June 1985).
There were viral posts – even by IMDB and JSTOR, so you know it’s real. There was a Twitter Moment about it and everything.
