Poll: Escapist Born on Holidays

[Colour Scientist]

April 30th so no.

I was the day Hitler killed himself though, and George Washington becomes President day though.

So, still no.

Nope, not really. The thing is I my birthday could fall on either Chinese New Year or Superbowl Sunday. Living in the US, I think one can classify Superbowl Sunday as a Holiday (but I think your team has to be playing). Chinese New Year is a tricky one though: I was born in 1988 which as any Chinese restaurant's place mat will tell you, is a year of the Dragon and yet, since I was born before the CNY of 1988, I'm actually a rabbit (the animal of 1897. I also find I have more bunny-like personality traits). This year CNY was in January and I think that's when it falls most years but there's always the chance that it falls on my Birthday. That's all I've got though.

Day after New Year for me, and although strictly not a holiday it is close enough to be affected by one. By which I mean me and my friends are nearly always too badly hungover to do anything for my birthday.

I also share my birthday with Isaac Asimov (which is cool) and Ian Brady (which isn't).

I'm born february 6th wich is the International Day of Zero Tolerance to Female Genital Mutilation, also Sami National Day.

Edit: Can't forget it's also Ronald Reagan Day.

Flag day. Yay.

I have a friend who was born on Christmas Day. He doesn't get two sets of presents. He hates it.

Myself? I'm not born on any special day in particular.

Man, that must suck for him.

I wasn't born on any special day, but my mom was born on Independance Day, and I have a friend who was born on Saint Patrick's Day.

Yea I was born on Christmas. I don't know what having an actual Birthday is like. And being asked about getting screwed out of presents gets rather old, especially when I'm almost 30.

 

[SenseOfTumour]

Don't know if New Year's Eve counts, but it's fairly sucky really, most people are too drunk by the time I get anywhere to give a damn that it's my birthday, heh.

Not that I've ever been a fan of New Year, it's all rather silly to me, unless you're really into drinking.

 

[McMarbles]

I was born on November 26th. So, my birthday falls out on Thanksgiving every few years. I guess I kind of qualify.

 

[Carl The Manicorn]

I was born 2 days after Christmas, so I would guess that kind of counts. Yeah, I was a great late Christmas gift to my parents.

 

[snagli]

Born on Easter, but obviously that doesn't mean my birthady is on Easter. It does make me pretty proud as a Christian, though.

Another New Year's Eve baby here, but I love it! It's like the whole world celebrates my birthday! And if I don't feel like throwing my own party, I can find one to go to no problem.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

No, but if I had been born 2 days earlier I would've been born on Christmas.

 

[Jedamethis]

5th February. No holidays. :/
Although for the past two years it has snowed enough to close school on my birthday. ^^

 

[Girl With One Eye]

I wasn't born on a holiday, but my little brother was born on Halloween. My family often refer to him as the devil child.
