My mom forces me to celebrate her on my birthday because she's the one that gave birth to me.

But this year she's in for a nasty surprise.

It's a classic like, I brought you into this world.

So I'm going to eat your birthday cake.

You know, I was in labor with you for, uh, 12 days. I can I not get one day? That is me. One day that's my own. Yes. And preferably it's your day. That is also my day. Exactly. Now we get it. Your birthday to be about me. Exactly. It only makes perfect logical sense. Yeah. I mean, like, like, like, who actually went through all the, the hardship on that day?

Me. to be about me. Exactly. It only makes perfect logical sense. Yeah. I mean, like, like, who actually went through all the, the hardship on that day?

Me.

I should be rewarded every year.

Opie just slipped out and was coddled up.

Yeah.

Low key.

Like, you don't do anything for your birth.

You just get shoved into the world.

The mothers.

Those are the people who should be celebrated.

But let's see. So, I have three siblings between the ages of 10 and 18. I'm the oldest child at 25. Every year on

every single one of our birthdays, we're expected to celebrate my mom as well. Mama's got to get hers.

She's got to get her shine. You know what I mean?

Honey, please. I need more attention. Please, give me your birthday wishes, too, please.

Four birthdays between you and your siblings is not enough, O.P., I need five. Why not five birthdays for me? I want to take your lizard's birthday, too, and the dog's birthday. And the mailman. Give me your birthday. Come on, Jeffrey. We've done it since we were all little. It was taught to me as giving thanks for carrying slash giving birth to us. Low key kind of makes sense. I do kind of see where she's coming from. I see. I see it. I see it. I think, I think, uh, just like, don't tell my mom. She's not just going to see my birthday. My mom's right outside. We got to start whispering this story. Quick question for the comments and for Sam. Would you, uh, be cool with this if your mom was like, hey, celebrate me in your birthday? Do I have a different day that's my own? No. I have no days that are my own. No, no Sam only days. I think I would, I think I would move. You think you would move? Yeah, I would get emancipated. Well, I guess I'm already emancipated because I'm old. Too bad. Yeah. Amidstimate now anyways. It's just a prover point. I don't think I would like that. I want my birthday.
