Quote:
Sunday is shaping up to be a unique day for reasons other than the Super Bowl and Groundhog Day: It's also a rare palindrome.
While various forms of palindrome dates are fairly common, 02/02/2020 has the unique distinction of reading the same backward and forward when written out in eight digits in multiple date systems.
For starters, it's an eight-digit palindrome: 02022020. Many palindrome dates are only symmetrical if you write the date with seven digits (1-10-2011) — or in some cases even fewer (9-10-19).
But even more rare is that Sunday's date is an international palindrome: It works whether you write the date as "Month/Day/Year" or "Day/Month/Year," as many countries do.
The last such palindrome date to occur was 11/11/1111 – more than 900 years ago.
OK, so who is hatching some eggs tomorrow???

My dad has been making groundhog day references all day. Asking if there's anything we need to get in case we end up stuck in a loop tomorrow, etc. And now you're telling me that not only is it groundhog day, but its got a super weird date that stays the same no matter which way it goes?
Also, have a song made up of palindromes
Bob.

Definitely :D
Edit: I hatched 7 eggs (because 7 is my favourite number I guess)
the real reason is I have no self control and just kept hatching even though I planned on only hatching 3
Edit 2: hatched another one for some reason.
Really cute tho I love her honestly
