Indeed. I'd be surprised to find a single culture on this planet that did/does not celebrate that days are finally getting longer.

You got me. I should have specified that a certain threshold of day-night length difference would have to be exceeded to be subject to celebration.

I'm glad I specified the planet, or else someone would have pointed out planets without a tilted axis.

[Edit] Fair point, though. I asked for a single counterexample and you delivered.
