Late to the party, partly because every time I log in at work I get logged out within 1 click...
But happy birthday all the same! |

I read Brave New World in the 10th grade. That explains a lot of my current neuroses.

Happy B-day! Soon we will be able to harvest your organs and burn your body to speed up the eventual heat death of everything, woooo!
You know, for kids. |

Not 30, 31. Big difference.

So Brian, what does my future look like? The 2 month difference in our age grants me a look into the world of tomorrow. You did, after all, assure that 30 wouldn't suck.

I don't know why I assured that, 30 generally sucked hard for me.
31 looks to rock, though.

I was not a big fan of We. This kinda surprised me, as I am pretty into in dystopic stories, but I just couldn't stay interested. I blame Zamyatin's writing style or my lack of interest in mathematics like the imaginary number.
More importantly, Happy Birthday Brian!! Sounds like you had a very fun one, so I hope I'm right
EDIT: I just realized I quoted a year-old post. I don't know if that is bad or anything, but sorry if it is. Last statement still stands - happy birthday Brian! |
