Don't have Break a paperclip day. Or Unbend a paperclip day. Or Frivolously waste metal day.

What if I credibly believe that the long-term consequence of endorsing "unbend a paperclip day" will be that large numbers of contrarians will start to increasingly value properly-bent paperclips, resulting in more properly-bent paperclips existing in the long run?
