My birthday

[Anonymous 0]

So I turned 32 yesterday. Yay! but whatever. So I was sitting there, eating the birthday cake that I bought for myself, and my mother, whom I help to support and lives with me, walks up to my bedroom door and actually thanks me for purchasing my own cake and for sharing it. She then just walks away. This was around 8pm.

I then got to thinking. When it was my mother’s birthday, I bought her a new laptop. When it was my brother’s birthday, turning 15, I built him a custom gaming computer.

And what did I get from them? Neither of them bothered to so much as wish me a happy birthday. Well, my brother did after I mentioned that there was cake. My mother never did. Even after seeing the god damn “happy birthday” on top of the cake, the words never left her mouth. She was too busy reaching for a fork and plate.

Oh, and I did get a new gaming mouse, which I paid for myself.

So yeah, f~~~ family.

My ex-step-father that my mom neglected and divorced? He took me out to lunch, wished me a happy birthday, and told me he wanted to take me out to lunch again soon, on his dime. But he is the bastard who “abandoned” my mother.

I seriously hate women so much. Nothing is ever enough and they only care when it is a benefit or burden to their own safety and comfort.

Well Happy Birthday from my end brother. It’s amazing how this crazy gynocentric thought process has consumed even older woman. I’m guessing mid to late 50’s? As for your younger brother it may have just been a youthful indiscretion, but don’t be surprised if he comes to you later in life in complete desperation.

Happy Birthday again brother.

Happy birthday from me, brother!

Happy Birthday!

…. and I understand.

This same thought occurred to me when I was about +30 and even though had a girlfriend, I planned & arranged everything, took us out and paid for it. I’m sitting there digging into my wallet on my own birthday. I would rather stay home and order pizza and watch a movie in peace and quiet. Quite seriously that would be perfect.

For things like a birthday, I prefer to SWITCH OFF.
Everyone else seems to want to *switch on* and go do stuff.

I always had a big social circle and thought – JUST ONCE – a girlfriend would throw a surprise party (or something) which she planned. Never happened. But they kept expecting me to celebrate all their life choices.

For the last few years, I meet a good friend. We each go for a 90 minute massage from an abusive Thai bitch ( I like her to be rough )…. we leave the place flushed, totally spent and feeling like a pudding…. then a NICE dinner… and a movie.

It’s a perfect evening every time.

No cake or “birthday” stuff. No family pressures or obligations. They leave a voicemail and I never pick up on my birthday. Then I text them “thanks!” the next day and I din’t have to deal with that awkward forced obligation bulls~~~.

Perhaps consider not surrounding yourself with family next time. Even though they are around you, they are family and they are “celebrating”…. they can actually make you “feel lonely”.

I’m doing the massage/dinner/movie thing every year from now on. 3 years in a row it was the BEST birthday and I said it out loud.

SWITCH OFF.

That’s as futile as shaking your fist at the sun for gamma rays.
…. or getting mad at a kangaroo for hopping.

When you think of it that way, it starts to get funny.
Accept and understand it for what it is.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

Happy Birthday NavyNick. Consider getting out of town/country for the next one. I’ve spent birthdays in Bali, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Europe, etc. all by myself. They are some of the best ones ever.

@pabsawake yeah she is 53 now. My brother, I’m not worried about him wishing me a happy birthday or anything. He is a teenager. I am just proud he can take the time away from masturbating to eat some cake.

@nerevar yes, yes she is. I despise her with all my being. If I wasn’t a disabled vet trying to finish college, and owner of a huge dog, I would move out and away. Once college is over, I am gone.

@Old-Sage Thank you very much. I ate my cake, closed my doors, and played games.

@keymaster I normally tell my family to not make a big deal about my birthday. I dislike holidays and see no point in spending money “because it is a special event”, but just those 2 words, “happy birthday” and walk away would make me smile. I am similar, I like to turn off to relax.

@solomon‘s Wisdom I cannot wait to go overseas again. I am not proud of being an american and this is not the country that I fought to protect. Once I have my degree, I am planning to find work anywhere outside the US, preferably in asia.

As a follow up:

Last night after the cake thing, everyone went upstairs(I live downstairs) and so I decided to have dinner. It was my birthday, so I had what I wanted, and I wanted pancakes. Don’t ask me why.

I made extra so that in the morning I could nuke them and have a nice breakfast too.

Low and behold, during the night, my mother decided that eating 1/3 of what I made for my own breakfast was a great idea. Granted, she didn’t eat all of it, but when you plan and cook, you know how hungry you will be.

I was not happy when I got to the fridge and saw this. And she was in the kitchen making coffee at the time. I said to her “it looks like some are missing” and she said “yes, there is, and they were delicious. I ate them last night when I was letting the jaz(the dog) out.”

F~~~ing p~~~ed

She had the nerve to eat the food I cooked and then almost like she was mocking me say how good they were!? Bitch, I know they were good I made them.

So, I know I am going to be an ass, and instead, I just leave and go to school. She texts me asking if I am upset. I took a few, calmed down a bit, and replied “yes, yes I am.”

This c~~~ has the nerve to say “well then next time put a note to not eat it.”

Are you f~~~ing kidding me. This bitch who flips out over nothing and everything says this s~~~ to me?

I cannot wait to move out.

-ps if anyone knows of any companies that will hire an english speaking mechanical engineer and move them to japan or asia in general, please let me know.

Happy Birthday…32 Wow what a (Power)-Age.

Best Birthday presents are the ones I did buy for myself.
Acquire it, if you really want to possess it.
Got this habit, possessing twice, the things I really like.

@Old-Sage I wish I could go and slap every single person who is rioting and talking s~~~. As far as I am concerned, if you haven’t served your country, why should it serve you? I bet not a single one of them is a veteran. And you are quite welcome. My time was short, only 7 years, and brutal, but well worth it.

@Irish-MGHOW I think that is kind of the story of women. They won’t put forth any effort ever, unless they directly reap the benefits. Celebrate your son who saved you after bankruptcy? Nah, not worth it, there is no benefit for her.

@Hollowmile I got myself a used logitech g502 gaming mouse. It is really nice and much better than my old razer taipan. Also, +1 for the math joke. I didn’t even realize it.

Happy birthday Navynick! I did 6 years myself in the peacetime Navy. The training commands sucked, but the deployments were fun. I’m sorry yours weren’t. My mom was awesome. She just worried too much…especially about me. She thought I was going to die in the Navy or something. You’re 32 now. Don’t f~~~ it up. Never marry…never cohabitate with a female…unless she has 4 legs and a tail.

I was a nuke and did a split tour between 2 carriers, doing 5 deployments in 5 years. I was never home.

I used to live with a girl I was trying to smash, but she was just a black hole of money and energy. Took me too long to realize, and I never got s~~~ from her. Took finding out she f~~~ed my best friend with me in the next room to wake up to reality.

No marriage, no kids, no girlfriends. If I could, I would move to a world where women were property.

And from a vet to a vet, late happy “pretend you care about vets” day.
