If you are like many who were conceived during that special Holiday in the month of February, and no I am not talking about President's Day, then you were probably born in the month of November. But even more so, you were probably born very close to Thanksgiving. In fact your birthday might be on Thanksgiving some years. While it is a time for really good food, friends and family, and a time to be extra thankful, it sucks when your birthday is during the Holiday.
1. No one remembers about your birthday
It's my party and I'll cry if I want to is so real when you are a "Thanksgiving baby". Having a party and not a lot of people show up throughout the years is a real struggle.
2. Some people eat to much turkey and sleep through your birthday
Science has proven that eating Turkey releases a chemical that makes you tired. So on Thanksgiving and afterwards when everyone has it for leftovers, you may be ditched because of a full-belly sleepy-head.
3. No one buys you a gift because they are waiting for Black Friday
Gotta buy a bunch of stuff with all the crazies. No room for birthday gifts.
4. Black Friday in general
But seriously? Would you rather go shopping in a mad city or go to a party and have free food and cake?
5. Or Cyber Monday
Same thing as Black Friday, except on Monday and the internet.
6. There are pies instead cake
Love pies, but birthday is meant for cake!
7. Everyone is gone on vacation
All of your friends are gone doing something awesome.
8. Or they are with their families
If they aren't on vacation they are here.
9. School is out
The one time I want to go to school is on my birthday. Everyone really appreciates you and makes you feel special on your birthday.
10. Instead of "Happy Birthday" on your Facebook wall, people just post "Happy Thanksgiving" instead
...it's my birthday too...
11. A lot of other people have their birthdays at or around the same time.
Since a lot of people do their thing on Valentines Day, unfortunately we all have to share our birthdays. Therefore fight over who will be at your party that is at the same time and same place.
12. Your birthday is fairly close to Christmas so less stuff.
Family members: "this is a combined birthday and Christmas present." THE WORST!
