Due to the introduction of the Gregorian calendar and to fix mistakes from the previous calendar system, October 5, 1582 did not exist. The calendar went from October 4 straight to October 15.

    Imagine getting drunk the night before and not having heard about the calendar change and then making up the next day and it was ten days later. You’d think you were Lord of the All-Time Benders.

    I’m going to go out in a limb and say that 442 years ago tomorrow didn’t exist either, but I guess I should wait until tomorrow to say that(?).
