Bottle's B-Day and related hoo-hah

Welcome to the party!

Many moons ago, Mama Bottle went into labor on this most hallowed day. For her pains she was rewarded with a baby that would be dubbed "the loud one" by hospital nursery staff.

Well, the Loud One is still loud, and still as demanding of attention, so this is my birthday thread.

The bar is open. The appetizers are plentiful. Table dancers, of assorted genders, are scantily clad and writhing emphatically. And just to make sure the sin factor is in full effect, I've included a poll so that folks have an opportunity to place bets.

Enjoy!

EDIT: Yes, the poll is borked. Second option should have been 18-20.

Long enough that I'm so senile I effed up the poll. Oh well.

Well, this IS the sorta thing people can try and calculate, though.

For instance, you're working towards a Ph. D., or some such, as I recall.

This knocks you out of the pretty much the 18-23 age ranges. Now, the tricky part is how far along into your grad schooling you are. If you'd just started, like Dak is about to just start, you're probably be 23-24. On the other hand, if you were finishing up, you could be 27-28. Though I'm just saying 27/28 because the only person I know who went to grad schooling straight out of undergrad got his at 27/28.

However, given the likelihood you're between the extremes, 24-26 is the logical choice. Happy 25th Birfday.

I'm gonna say 27. You sound quite mature, not at all like some damned kid.

Though I figured Smunkee was older than me too, only to find out she's younger.

If this is your 27th birthday, that would mean we were born the same day. Even more strange...

Happy birthday, in any case.

Funny story, my kid brother was almost born on July 13th as well. My mom went into labor at like 10:30 pm on my ninth birthday. Happily, my brother was wise enough to wait until 1:41 the next morning before making his appearance. Since I was the first non-doctor to ever hold him, it's probably just as well that he didn't intrude on MY BIRTHDAY...

And happy birthday to you, Aelosia, too.

Hey, at least I didn't make it a "Guess My Weight!" poll.

I've known marriages to end over such things.
Bottle
13-07-2007, 15:07
If you are celebrating and not lamenting, it means you're young, no matter how many springs have you seen come and go.
Wow...that's a great quote!

Wow - it's my birthday tomorrow - the 14th - but I was supposed to be born today, on the 13th - in fact it would have been a Friday 13th but my mother, in a motherly loss of rationality, held on until it was Saturday 14th so I was born just after midnight - at a surprising velocity - on the 14th.

So Happy Birthday!

EDIT: Double wow, just read your brother's story - happy birthday to him as well, all of France celebrates our birthdays.

Wait, no, scratch that. You'd have to be the good twin, in any case.

See now, in this situation if I 'popped a Bottle in celebration' that would turn out badly.

Happy Birthday Bottle, as Milhouse to your Lisa I feel the need to give a slightly inappropriately personal gift and to over interpret your polite acceptance of such, sending me spinning on a starcrossed haze.

Consider that done.
