Today, it's my 21st birthday. My parents' gift was a case of non-alcoholic beer, to "prepare" me for when I "turn 21." My parents can't even remember how old I am. FML

Go out and buy yourself some alcohol, get yourself completely wasted, and you won't even remember that they forgot.

forgetting if it's the 20th or 21st isn't nearly as bad as them forgetting it completely!

How old are your folks? You do realize that older people can be forgetful? Give them a break :)
