I don't know why it bothers me so much. It just seems so incredibly childish and narcissistic. I actually have a female friend who is 47 who has had a birthday every year of her life with a bunch of invited guests and presents expected. I have another friend about the same age who spends her 23 year old son's birthday with him all day and evening. I work with women in their 30's and 40's who go absolutely ape shit about their birthdays. I just had to dish out over $30 for the pizza for the office party. And she is as giddy as a 6 year old as she blows out her candles.


Does anyone grow the fuck up?
