birthdays

[IIIIIIII]

do any of you, say over forty, still make it an event to celebrate your birthday? mine's coming up in a few days and i'll be 44, and i literally was going to treat it as another monday, but now i'm getting text messages from family about what we're doing for it. i don't want to do anything lol. if they can take away the heat, i'll take that!

any of you still have the birthday cake and singing celebration and the like?

Just another day

My birthday is next week too

But no, I don't expect much celebration. Plan on going to work and maybe we go out to eat or something. That's about it

I take the week off for myself. My mother gives me a card, money and a bag of small gifts, food items and trinkets. My missus does the same thing. Well wishes from elsewhere.

I'm not the celebrating type, ever since Mum threw me a party and my older brother shouted the name of my crush at me in front of all of my friends. I was in my single digits and excruciatingly shy.

I just don't want to work around that time, and I want to get away for a few days.

I'm a miserable shit like the next person, but not celebrating birthdays and annual holidays are small eradications of tradition and personal culture. May as well be a cog in the machine, work, eat, sleep, retire and die.

The first, which I believe is Thursday

 

[Ponchik]

It didn't take me long to figure out that falling out of my mother is not an accomplishment worthy of a celebration. I just go along because I like getting free stuff.

Did others let you? Even parents?

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

I take the day off and do whatever I feel like which is usually golf and the shooting range

Here in Sweden, it’s customary for the person celebrating their birthday to host and often cover the costs of the celebration.

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

I take off to do something, end up doing nothing. Back to work the next day.

psh, wat? that's madness lol. no one would be having birthdays here in the u.s. then haha. no, to be serious, people showing up would be good enough. time is just as much if not more valuable than money.
