About
Pajama Day is a holiday celebrated by wearing a pajama to school or another place of education or employment instead of more formal clothing. In mid-October, memes about the holiday and various unusual scenarios that could occur during it gained popularity on Reddit.
Origin
While memes about the Pajama Day existed prior,[1][2][3] the holiday has not been actively referenced in memes until October 2019. On October 8th, 2019, Redditor Johnsish63 posted a CallMeCarson Crying Next to Joe Swanson meme which implied that children who sleep naked would participate in the pajama day by coming to school naked.[4] The meme gained over 10,300 upvotes in two weeks (shown below).

Spread
On October 8th, 2019, Redditor spleen_removal posted a Joker Gets Hit by a Car meme labeled with the same joke,[5] with the post receiving over 23,500 upvotes in two weeks (shown below).

The format saw no significant further spread until on October 17th, 2019, Redditor the-saac-er posted a meme that received over 36,300 upvotes in four days (shown below, left).[6] In the following day, posts imagining unusual Pajama Day scenarios gained popularity on Reddit.
