Why Monday might be annoying:

    Back to work… or school.
    On ABC, football gave way to inane courting and train wreck choreography.
    There is a Meatless Mondays website (but do you follow it, anyway?).
    A second-guesser is called a ‘Monday morning quarterback.’
    It is the only day of the week not named for a god or goddess — unless you consider the Moon as such.

Why Monday might not be annoying:

    It is a running joke in the Garfield comic strip (‘I hate Mondays’).
    Jews and Islamics consider it favorable for fasting.
    The Eastern Orthodox Church commemorates angels on this day.
    Muhammad was born on this day.
    Many a fixed holiday falls on this day — notably Labor Day.
