Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I'm mad at my dad for forgetting it's my birthday. He's mad at me for not reminding him. FML
Today, I realized just how much of a bitch I am when I grounded my son for not telling me what he got me for my birthday. FML
Today, it was my birthday. I had an appointment at the dentist and went to do some shopping after that. A while after I got home, I met my dad and he just started complaining that I didn't spend any time with them on my birthday. When I tried to explain to him, he just got angry at me and started yelling. FML
Today, my dad grounded me for not having any friends. FML
Today, my dad and mom and I were going out to eat dinner. My dad wanted a romantic dinner just with my mom so he told me to make an excuse not to go. I did, which ended up as a huge fight, grounded and phone taken away. My dad just stood there in the background putting thumbs up. FML
Today, my parents forgot it was my birthday. They ordered me to scrub the common bathroom, and when I asked if they'd remembered, my dad's reaction was, "Oh! Really?" My mom's was, "I thought that it was next week." What lovely parents I have. FML
Today, it's my birthday. When I asked my mom if we were gonna do anything special for my birthday. She said, "Don't lie to me. It's not your birthday." FML
Today, my dad made a big show of sending me to my room and grounding me for a week. Not because he heard me cursing at my video game, but because I "swear like a little girl" and it embarrassed him in front of his friends. FML
Today, my brother mentioned my dad's birthday party. I said, "What party?" He said, "Shit, forgot I wasn't supposed to tell you." My own father doesn't want me at his party. FML
Today, my dad asked me when I was going to start looking for a job. Jokingly, I told him next year. He got pissed, started to yell, then realized Tuesday is New Year's Day and grounded me for "being a dumbass." FML

Get out your birth certificate and a list of whatever you want. He's going to have to make up for that one somehow op.

Just remember to forget his birthday. When he says something, tell him he's obviously too old for birthdays.

First of all Happy birthday OP. It sucks that your dad forgot your birthday and someone from your family would have remembered and celebrated it

Oh, yeah, I do that all the time when I forget people's birthdays. It's really hard to ground coworkers and friends, but I get it done.

I hope you just throw ground beef at them rather than pushing them onto the ground.

I truly hope it is a plot to give you an awesome surprise birthday party. If not... Happy Birthday from us on FML!

This literally happened to my best friend today and it's freaking me out because I truly think it could be her...

You're not alone op. My mom had to remind my dad to call me on my birthday every year (he's a truck driver so he's only here for one day a week) and when she finally stopped calling him to remind him he stopped calling. Just know that there are other people out here for you and happy birthday op :)

I'm trying to wrap my head around how your own father could not remember at least the month of when you were born. Either way, happy birthday OP!

Poor op! I hope your dad makes it up somehow! Maybe money, presents, cake, and a full celebration with just you two after you show him your birth certificate to prove it or something!

i don't think materialistic items make up for forgetting the birthdate of your child..
