A tweet by Ivanka Trump @ivankatrump saying "I cannot believe that Theodore is eight months old today! Happy birthday little teddy bear!" with an admittedly cute picture of a child smiling. It has a reply from @blacknmild saying "this isn't how birthdays work"
What are you guys talking about, my birth day is a weekly recurring event. I was born on a Saturday so I'm now 2078 weeks old.
I am very normal.
Wth? That's a birth week. That's not how normal people celebrate.
I'm coming over tomorrow to show you how to properly do birthdays. Also, do you know a place where I can find 14,000+ candles for your cake?
No, that’s not true. A birth week recurs yearly, not weekly.
A birth day is the day on which you were born, say Saturday, and you’ll have one of those every week.
A birth week is the number of the week in which you were born, say week 14, and it takes a year before it’s week 14 again. Same interval as a birth month.
A birth date only occurs once. It’ll never be July 4, 1981 ever again.
This is all very normal and logical. Beep boop.
No, no. You see, the time period indicates how often you celebrate. This is why it's perfectly normal for OP to celebrate the baby's every month. (Why are we doing this? Oh, right facepalm)
Happy Birthday!
Thank you! You are welcome to join me next week when I celebrate my 2079th birth day.
World might be a better place if everyone treated their birthdays like the Sabbath and celebrated and relaxed once a week
