IT'S MY FUCKING BIRTHDAY.
We're going on a pub crawl at three but I've only had a couple hours sleep after waking up far too early so I'm terrified I'll spend the rest of day asleep on the sofa.

What was your worst birthday?

My 21st was an epic week long beer fest
My 31st was "fucking shit". Terrible day at work, bad shit at home, the works.

My 21st was excellent

My 18th was amazing.
Although after being awake for 96 hours I felt like I was going to die. It's my 21st today, it's also my housemate's 20th so hopefully it will be a good one.

I honestly can't remember my 18th!
My 19th was odd as I went out about 2 weeks after getting a shoeing with a hugely swollen cock face, dribbling beer out of one side of my mouth

My last one (23rd)
My girlfriend (who was organising it) interpreted my saying 'I fancy a quiet night' as 'Don't invite anyone over', meaning that I saw her, and my best mate, who had spoken to the GF the night before, asking whether she'd invited anyone. She admitted she hadn't thought to, and when asked why not do it now, responded 'Too late, lol'.

Either that or my 18th. I'd spent the day working, was absolutely knackered, most of my friends either couldn't be there, or weren't 18 yet, so we couldn't go in most pubs. I ended up home by midnight, stone cold sober.

to be fair, that's almost entirely your own fault, though.

( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 5 Mar 2012, 10:51, Reply)

She'd said she wanted to organise something for me, and I said I fancied a quiet night
That's the way I describe a night of drinks with friends, always has been.

like I said
your fault.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 5 Mar 2012, 11:02, Reply)

In what way?
She'd insisted that she wanted to organise something, I used a phrase that I use on a regular basis, she misunderstood, then when corrected, decided she couldn't be arsed to text anyone.
( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Mon 5 Mar 2012, 11:04, Reply)

And as for the second point, it was another persons birthday the same night, everyone had assumed I was planning my birthday for the week after (as I had done the previous 3 years).

Birthdays are a bit of a non-event for me
they've gone from being a proper night out to a few drinks in the Wetherspoons and half of my friends can't even be bothered to do that any more. My worst birthday was probably my 21st; I'd worked all day and spent all evening alone in my flat, drinking a horrible cheap bottle of wine with a takeaway pizza, which I got food poisoning from. Even non-event Wetherspoons birthdays are better than that.

I was banned from High St Ken McDonalds on my 21st
swings and roundabouts.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 5 Mar 2012, 11:11, Reply)

Yes, it could have been worse
None of my birthdays have ever involved a McDonalds.

( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Mon 5 Mar 2012, 11:18, Reply)

My 18th did, that's where I was working on the day.

( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Mon 5 Mar 2012, 11:19, Reply)

this only involved McDonalds
To see if it was possible to use a shopping trolley at a drive through. Unfortunately, that McDonalds doesn't have a drive through, but in our alcoholically liberated state this was not a problem. Nor was the short flight of stairs to the counter. Frankly, I'm amazed I still have a spine.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 5 Mar 2012, 11:22, Reply)

Yeah, fair enough
despite it featuring a McDonalds, it still sounds better than my 21st.
(berk, Mon 5 Mar 2012, 11:23, Reply)

hahahahaha!

( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Mon 5 Mar 2012, 11:32, Reply)

Oh man, you're missing out, you get to go in the big fridge. That's the coolest thing in the world, I still want to go in one.
I had a McDonalds birthday and it rocked EXCEPT, even though I was the birthday boy, I didn't get to see the big fridge, but I did get a personal tour from the Donatello ninja turtle, he showed me the toilets, I kept on asking him when we were going to see the big fridge and he said when we finished our weeing contest but then he washed my hands for me and said that he had to go off and fight shredder so I never got to see the big fridge.

In fact, yeah', that was my worst, I'd love to go into a walk-in fridge.

None of them are particularly bad.
Last one culminated with falling asleep on the bus to Catford, thankfully realising while only about a mile away from my house, then crying all the way home as I walked past my old house and wanted to go back there. Drama drama.
Oh, and the trauma of having your birthday in Freshers' Week so you don't know anyone but your home friends are all too far away. That wasn't brilliant. I got over it.

Am I being petty.
For being pissed off that the girl who claims to like me so much has just written a generic 'happy birthday' on my Facebook wall instead of a call/text? It's actually winding me up.
(Barry from Eastenders is, despite the words written above, not a woman, Mon 5 Mar 2012, 11:17, Reply)

Yes and No
Yes, in that most people have to deal with 3/4 birthdays per day now, due to facebook, meaning that it does tend to get reduced to simple greetings.

No, in that I can imagine you'd have expected more.

I think she could have made a bit more of an effort.

Meh, ignore the silly cow for a few days
if she's worth having she'll text you to see what's wrong. If she doesn't, she's clearly too self-obsessed to notice you haven't spoken in a few days and she's not worth the bother.
(berk, Mon 5 Mar 2012, 11:31, Reply)

She hasn't text me in about two weeks.
And I don't think she'd ever text me unless I text her first.

She sounds like a pain in the arse.

She is, when I'm with her she's unbelievably amazing.
It's just she's more elusive than Lord Lucan and Maddy McCann's love child half the time. She finds it ridiculously hard to trust people/open up so I'm being patient.
