You have to act over-the-top happy that they were so generous to have thought of you. Then they ask every 3 minutes for the next few hours whether or not you REALLY liked it or were just saying so. Then they beat themselves up, saying they are such a failure for giving you something you obviously didn't like. It's not a coincidence we see my mother-in-law only once every 2 years.

I should definately unfriend him and put him on ignore. I guess he was too busy telling my Happy Birthday in person.

A wall full of meaningless HB's just depresses me. I think, "All these people wouldn't have said happy birthday if FB didn't tell 'em to!" b) Generally, the FB Birthday "Birthday Fest" posts irritate me. But, a friend was out of work for a while and all last December his FB page was filled with the Month of James stuff that linked to a web site he made (http://monthofjames.com). It's pretty funny. I'm sure he wouldn't mind me posting it because he's a radio guy and made it to poke fun at people that think their birthday is the end all be all of birthdays. Or because he's an attention whore. Two things…

I guess saying "Thank you!" wasn't enough...maybe I needed to add more exclamation marks. And I almost forgot…she was also upset because I wasn’t “happy enough” with gift she got me for my birthday.

I share the same sentiments. I've never considered a birthday as anything more that just the day you were born. Facebook makes people feel like they are obligated to tell each other happy birthday. After all, the reminder is right there. They cease to realise that if you are important to someone, they will call or send a text, and if you are not important then they could just as easily overlook the reminder. It won't kill them, or you, if they don't. I'm sure of it. Hilarious. I share the same sentiments. I’ve never considered a birthday as anything more that just the day you were born.

She absolutely freaked because I didn't post "early enough" about her birthday and because I didn't call her on her birthday to wish her a birthday - even though I did post on FB a happy birthday message. And when I would have called her to say happy birthday, she was out with her friends in the city she lives in thousands of miles away. Went absolutely ballistic. What a pain in the butt. We're still not speaking. Are you sure this isn’t my former best friend posting?

Oh wait a minute, you didn't. I know you don't know my name or where I live or anything other than I might be a teacher, but you should really understand how important December 1st is in the grand scheme of things. I'm not trying to be a bitch or anything, but I'm putting you all on notice until my next birthday. If I don't get any wishes then, that's it, I'm done with all you losers!
