Birthdays


I just do not understand birthdays. 

So, I just turned another year older.

Thank you, thank you. You're too kind.

But have you ever noticed that whenever you reach a milestone birthday, people say 'Congratulations' like it's some kind of accomplishment?

"Good Job, you lived."


Like do we not understand how birthdays work? 
They are kind of an annual thing. 

For those confused, let me explain to you what a birthday is:

"A birthday is where you get all your friends and family together to light a cake on fire to celebrate something that you did absolutely no work for. "-Webster's Dictionary



If only I got celebrated for all the times I didn't do any work.


"Congratulations!!!! You spent the ENTIRE DAY watching NETFLIX!! YOU GO GIRL! YOURE AN INSPIRATION!"



Also, when I was little, a girl got me candy as a birthday gift. I went inside for 2 seconds and she ate it while I was inside.

It's still hard for me to talk about.
