Happy Birthday!
Hey, a real live legitimate opportunity for me to post a “me, too”!
Me, too!
Feh on all this mushy stuff!
Anthracite, I wish you the happiest of birthdays. You are a fearsome warrior in the fight against ignorance and a hero. We are lucky to have you on our side.
Keep fighting ignorance wherever you go, and thank you on behalf of all of us who hope someday to see it eradicated.
Thanks again, happy birthday, and enjoy all that mushy stuff! All the best.

I tried to find you a suitable birthday present but I was unable to locate anything except bituminous.
A very Happy Birthday to you, Anthracite! 
Happy Birthday, Una!

woodstockbirdybird, the first rule of the Straight Dope Message Board is “Don’t be a jerk.” You were a complete jerk with just that post. DON’T DO IT AGAIN.

To everyone else, I apologize, but I felt that was necessary. Please carry on, and ignore both this post and the post that inspired it.

Happy Birthday to You!
A little late perhaps, but best wishes for your next year of life, Anthracite.
Felicissimum dies natalis tibi, o dea carbonis.
…And just think what the celebration is all about; the day where you were covered in blood and mucus, screaming your lungs out.
Hope you have a good one, Happy Birthday!!!

I usually resist, but for once, for the spirit of fossilised carbon, I’ll chime in and say I love reading your stuff, and seeing you get through good times and bad. Best wishes from the antipodes

Love’s grand, in’t it?
Happy birthday, Anthracite!
Happy birthday, good friend.
I hope you enjoy many dozen more. Is that a blessing or a curse? Only time will tell.

And coming in late, as always, is me!

Happy Birthday!
As always, best wishes Anthracite!
Birthday’s are special (to me anyway). I’m glad to join in the well-wishing!
