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.
