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

Don't feel too bad, I've missed many friend's birthdays because the notification for it is at the bottom of the page. My birthday is in a couple of weeks and I bet the same thing will happen

"Blame it on the new facebook." I agree. Before it was at the top, so you would notice. Nobody would go check at the bottom everyday. Although a true friend wouldn't need facebook to know your birthday lol.

I'm usually one of the people who says happy birthday. Unless I'm mad at them, then forget it. But yeah... Happy birthday anyway. =]

Maybe your friends were too busy wishing the Earth a happy birthday to remember one of 6 billion people throwing a pity party over facebook. Having been deployed for a consecutive 3 birthdays in a row I can happily say they are overrated.
