Friends, Birthday, Facebook and Social Media: Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday

By happybirthday - 22/04/2009 19:42 - United States

Today, was my birthday. I purposely didn't log onto Facebook all day, so that I could read all my birthday wishes at once. When I logged on at the end of the day, I had one notification. My "friend" had commented on a picture of me, saying I looked like Jabba the Hut. FML

Today, it was my birthday. Nobody said anything, not even my Facebook friends, who probably got a notification about it. FML

Today, it was my birthday. None of my family members wished me a happy birthday and neither did the 1,000+ "friends" I have on Facebook either. FML

Today, it's my birthday. The only "happy birthday"s I got were from my mom, her Facebook account, and the Facebook account she made for her cat. FML

Today, I changed the date of my birthday to today on Facebook to see how many people actually know my birthday. My mom wished me a happy birthday. FML

Today, I checked my fake Facebook account for the first time in ages and realized that the "fake me" got more birthday greetings than the "real me." FML

Today, it's my birthday. The only people who wished me a happy birthday were the ones who saw the "birthday boy" poster my sister plastered around school, which included a photo of me as a kid dressed up as a girl. FML

Today, I forgot to log out of my Facebook account before leaving for work. When I got back home, I discovered that my brother had gone through and commented "quack" on all my friend's duckfacing photos. She was not pleased. FML

Today, it's my birthday. My grandma posted about it on her Facebook wall, but people got confused and thought it was her birthday instead. She got twice as many birthday wishes as I did, and that's including the ones I got outside of Facebook. FML

What does facebook have to do with your birthday? Posting a message on facebook means nothing, why not go out with friends to a restaurant or something

Well, if it makes you feel any better, facebook changed the notification layout.. the birthday reminders are all the way at the bottom now, not in your face as soon as you log in. I've forgotten to wish a lot of my close friends a happy bithday because of this.

awwwwwww :( I complained to facebook like 3 weeks ago to move birthdays up I don't want to be in the same predicament next month when my bday comes up :( but happy birthday. and I bet people would have wished you if they had seen it but stupid fb thinks that showing random pages of stuff like "Summer", "texting" and "will smith" are more important than birthdays!!!
