(dark red to reflect my current mood)

**HAPPY BIRTHDAY, EVERYONE!!!**

Approximate Phonetic Chinese Version of “Happy Birthday”: (thanks, Nathan!)

“Guung juuk nay fook sow yuen teen tsai, hing hong nay sun sun fie lok. Leen leen doe yao gum yut, suuy doe yao gum jzew, guung hay nay! Guung hay nay!!!”  
Approximate English Translation of Above:

“Congrats on this good day of fortune, where we can all gather together. Wishing you a very happy birthday. Every year, this wondrous day arrives; Always, this wondrous time comes. Congratulations! Congratulations!”  
Hope you have a good birthday, and a great year to come! 🙂

I share a birthday with Mockingbird? Cooool…I’ll just mentally replace every mention of ‘Chelsea Clinton’ with ‘Mockingbird’.

C’Mon, let’s hear it!

Or not. Fine, don’t say anything. I don’t care one way or the other. You can’t make me care! You can’t tell me what to do! Leave me alone. Jerk.

I am the former **Blue Curls** , and on the 20th I am turning the big ol’ 21! I will be able to drink alcohol legally in America! Thrills!

(In Australia, there is nothing you can do at 21 that you can’t do at 20.)

Well, well, well, I just noticed who I share a birthday with;

**25: Jonathan Chance, Craneop2, An Arky, dwc1970, UncleBeer**

and like **Happy Lendervedder** this month marks my exit from my 20’s and the start of my 30’s.

Now if I can just avoid the Danish obsession with pepper for guys who are unmarried by their 30th birthday!

I’m on the 10th.

And I gotta say, here’s to being born in the shortest friggin’ month of all.

Any old sucka fool can be born in a month with 31 freakin’ days. There’s only 7 of 'em fachrissakes. It takes some god. damn. sand. to sneak your ass into the old TWENTY-EIGHTER.

Be proud, fellow Februarians!

EIGHT AND A SCORE, FOREVER MORE!

FEBRUARY BIRTHDAY, FOOL!!!

Not too terribly long.  
The weird this is I’m looking at it on one of the computers here at work, and it looks like I did it while drunk (well, drunker than usual)! :eek:  
I go to another computer and it’s fine. 😕  
Happy Day-Day, **Happy Lendervedder**! 🙂

That’s because the same text may appear different on different browsers. The smileys themselves are graphics though, and will appear the same. [Here is a fine example](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=5609457&postcount=104) of how to waste time properly.

That’s what I can’t figure out.  
They are both work computers, loaded with the same OS and browsers.  
The only difference I could think of was the screen resolution, but changing it didn’t make a difference.

Sign me up for a six.

Although, thanks to US bartenders for a few months after I turned 21, I now feel obliged to celebrate on June 2nd as well. 06/02 is a baffling number.
