25 years old, the quarter-century mark, and my fifth birthday on the Board! :D
*sets out cake, snacks and ice-cream and hands out party hats and sparklers*
Good stuff, and happy birthday!
The birthday tradition at my house is to sing a really depressing birthday song, so here goes:
(sung in deep, sad voice)
Happy birthday, happy birthday,
People dy-ing everywhere,
People li-ving in despair,
Happy birthday, happy bi-rthday...
All the hyphens are pronounced by drawing out the word, in case you didn't get that.
But anyways, happy birthday! *Grabs another handful of snacks*
Traditions are cool. :P Enjoy the snacks.
Happy 25th Birthday! Here you go! *hands you a neutered tribble with a gift bow attached to it*
Hope you have or are currently having a great day!
*pets tribble* I did have a great day, thank you. :D
And many happy returns.
And behold! I have a top hat kitten, combining the best features of both. Just don't look at it or think too hard about how that's supposed to work...
*Quietly moves over to the cake*
*puts hatkitten in a little basket to sleep*
Enjoy the cake! :D
Have a Fancy PG Hat! You'll probably need it at some point, and it looks dashing.
My old one was caught in a mini-Balrog outbreak last week and is little more than charcoal now... this is excellent timing! *wears Hat gleefully*
Hope it is/was a good one! (Sorry, timezones get me everytime....) Have a Generic Object that may or may not be late!
*adds Generic Object to the collection*
*Sings "Happy Birthday"*
In honor of your birthday, I have a special present for you! Or to be more precise, a special something that has a special present for you!
Now where did I put it?
*rummages through bag of holding*
*Pulls out Poké Ball*
Here you go! Inside is a Delibird, the Delivery Pokemon. But you accept its deliveries at your own risk; its presents have a chance to either heal your wounds or explode! A very...interesting companion to have around!
:O My very own Delibird! I've never caught one before! *loves to play Pokemon* I will love it and hug it and call it... Delibird!
Quarter of a century is quite a milestone - hope you're having a good one.
It's been good, yes. :D
Happy B-day and remember...The cake is a Lie!
I will remember that.
The quarter-century mark is quite significant, I've found. Many people use the time to reflect and re-evaluate.
Anyway, here is a Perfectly Generic Object and a pumpkin. Have fun!
-Phobos
*puts Perfectly Generic Object on display shelf, saves the pumpkin in quantum space for making pasties*
I bring two metaphysical gifts:
-An experience of existential uncertainty: good grief, you've been here five years? I bet that feels like a long time...
-A quantumly-uncertain invitation to a Gathering next Saturday. It will only become a genuine invitation if you look at it with the intent of attending; otherwise, it will turn into a pamphlet about The Dangers Of Eucalyptus.
Hope you had a great day!
hS
It does feel like a long time. A lot's happened for me over the last five years, but the PPC's been a constant through it all. :3
*picks up... pamphlet about The Dangers of Eucalyptus* Aww...*
It was a good day, yes - I got lots of nice new things and a yummy dinner. :D
*I replied to the Gathering thread further down the page explaining my situation.
Happy B-day! As a gift, I will release a personalized variant of the Joshi virus (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0p1qdEU_oB0) to infect the world's computers, causing untold devastation.
*showers with confetti*
*places Generic Gift on table*
*eats cake*
-Aila
*plays with Generic Gift* :D
