Lost Sock Memorial Day is observed on May 9 to honor lost socks. The unofficial holiday also encourages individuals to part with any remaining single socks they have been saving in the hopes of finding a partner.
There are few mysteries in life as perplexing as the sock mystery. No matter how hard you try to keep a pair of socks together, one of them will invariably disappear into the void, never to be found again. Lost Sock Memorial Day is a time to remember all the lost socks.
2.Eat What You Want Day

Break all but one of your dietary restrictions on May 11, also known as Eat Whatever You Want Day. The only rule you must follow is to eat whatever you want, how you want it, and as much as you want!
Diets have taken control of people who desire to live a healthy life in today's fast-paced, time-constrained society. Everyone has a dish or food they adore but must avoid due to its poor nutritional value. This unofficial holiday allows individuals to indulge in their favorite foods guilt-free for one day per year.
3.Turn Beauty Inside Out Day

Girls' magazine New Moon created Turn Beauty Inside Out Day as a response to People magazine's "50 Most Beautiful People" list. In the past, New Moon has published a list of "25 Beautiful Girls" in response to People's list, highlighting the inner beauty traits of "good works, good heart, and activism." In addition, they encouraged young girls to create a video, audio, web, or print advertisement showcasing their inner beauty and suggested that they submit it to local media and enter it in a contest.
The purpose of the day is to shift the focus from outer beauty to inner beauty as the definition of beauty. It exists to raise awareness about the issues girls face, especially by recognizing the negative media pressures they face, such as the need to be thin.
4.Put a Pillow on Your Fridge Day

Put a pillow on your refrigerator on May 29 to bring good fortune and wealth into your home in honor of Put a Pillow on Your Fridge Day.
The origins of Put a Pillow on Your Fridge Day are unknown, but conventional wisdom holds that the holiday is a modern take on the ancient custom of placing linens in the refrigerator to bring good fortune. Why doing so will bring good fortune is unknown.
5.My Bucket's Got a Hole Day

See below for information on how to celebrate this odd holiday.
