Sounds like you got the brains!!

And your sister got the ego

Thank god brains go a long way.

I agree. Your sister seems like a moron.

Yes, i bet shes the "popular" one who won't go very far in life all the while OP will surely dart forward and leave the sister in the dust, with her ego, temporary beauty, and pettiness. Also happy birthday OP

who's giving out these birthday balloons? that seems awfully attention seeking anyway, like those chick's who come to school with a tiara and sash as if their birthday is any more special than anyone elses. ugh.

#67, 1) you do realize that OP's friends could have gotten the birthday balloon for her? 2) so people aren't allowed to celebrate their own birthdays, even if it does mean showing up in tiaras and such? Just cause they don't wear tiaras for everyone else's birthdays (that would be weird anyway) doesn't mean that they're implying that their own birthday is more special. Could you explain your logic, maybe?

on my birthday I buy those cardboard tiara things that say happy birthday and wear it all day on my bday. my fiancee bought me one and so did a classmate. so I wore one each for my bday and the next three days. not a big ego but I wore the other two since they got them for me and mine bc everyone should celebrate their own birthday. doesnt matter how it's done

isn't your own birthday more import than other's?

My birthday is in August so I don't get any school celebration. I have a tiara and a "birthday girl" ribbon that I wear to my bday party. I turned 19 two months ago.

#70 #77 maybe it's a cultural thing. at my school the only people that do that are attention seeking whores; the kind who only come to school the day after their 18th to act hungover and show everyone how 'cool' they are. The kind that actually buy their own tiara and sash. THATs pathetic. and everyone hates them except their own little possy who sing happy birthday way too loudly at lunchtime to let everyone know how great friends they are. at a school of 1000 people, there's going to be about 3 birthdays a day. so birthdays aren't that special and there's only a select few attention whores who do this and it pisses the hell out of everyone. for op if your friends bought the balloon for you fair enough, your sister was probably jealous that she has to share the attention. In which case fyl for having a twin who's an attention whore

#97 I F-CKING hate the girls that scream happy birthday at lunch

87 omg me too! Except for the ribbon part and the age

that..that.. that is just too dumb to insult

Too many negative votes, comment buried. Show the comment

It's pretty dumb, as well. I think most people would be aware that twins almost always have the same birthday. It's definitely not too dumb to insult though. I've yet to see a stupid too stupid to insult.

Unless one born before midnight and the other after midnight, but of course this doesn't sound like the case. The whiney sister needs to grow up

Blow out all the candles on the cake before her, and say the same thing

Better yet just blow the candles out and when it's all dark run away with the cake

I can't even

Then don't.

It's a phrase that indicates someone whose speechless.

if you're speechless, why say anything at all?

Using tumblr phrases hardly ever works on FML.

celeberate birthday on alternate years :p

what? don't you mean alternate days? because you get a birthday every year so i'm not sure how this would work.

they are twins one can celebrate one year and other one next year and so on..

Then you can tell people you're twenty when you're forty. Great idea! Nothing can go wrong, whatsoever.

"Officer I swear I'm 10, what's wrong with dating someone my own age?!"

Now we know who's the smarter of the two.

how smart of her! others would never be able to guess now!

It's a great thing that there are no other tell-tale signs that they could possibly share the same birthday! Phew! Dodged a social bullet there...

The logic it is too strong! Fall back and regroup!

She is/was jealous.

You could get revenge by popping her brain, you know if she had one.

Now we know who the smart one is...
