Not even congratulating them back on their birthday, rude af

[–] thedarkfly@feddit.org 4 points 6 days ago

I know it's an unpopular opinion but what's the point? They're obviously not talking regularly and people get avalanched by congratulations due to social networks reminders, so would it mean anything?

Small dick energy.

Fun fact: you posted this on the birthday of both my mom and my first ex-wife.

Because I married a woman who even had the same birthday as my mother.

Anyway, life sure is funny sometimes!

Neither of their names are Tammy, are they?

It's alarming how well that comment reads in his voice. And this one. My God.

There’s only one solution. ERASE ALL PICTURES OF RON

[–] Phoenix3875@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

No, their names are NOT_TAMMY instead.

And less than a week after OOPs birthday. What a missed opportunity. No offense to your mom and ex wife tho.

I know, if we'd scheduled better, he could've easily banged them both.

Happy birthday!

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Either that or the screenshot is 4 years old. We'll never know

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Knowing this platform, it's 4 years old and will get reposted repeatedly for some reason.

I would love an update with all the missing years

[–] slothrop@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That was me and a bro until 2 years ago when he went no-contact with family. I found out from another sibling.

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 week ago

Wait, what did you find out? That he doesn't answer you?

[–] TommySoda@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

That's me with my half my siblings. And yet, I still forget to text them on their birthday even though the last text message was on their birthday.

[–] Zugyuk@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Damn, these guys must be close

[–] HeyJoe@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I got 1 friend like this right now and the same birthday! Funny enough the day is the only reason why i remember it. In 2006 his birthday was 06/06/06 which was amazing. Sadly we don't really talk much these days, but I do still remember to send him the birthday text and as someone else pointed out I do not get the same respect from them on mine.
