Home of Forgotten Birthdays
Created | Updated Jan 28, 2002
What?
This page is intended for people whose birthday makes people mostly think of other things than the fact that it's someone's anniversary. To make up for the lack of confidence resulting from this sad coïncidence, people in the aforementioned case can apply here to be included in the ever-growing (well, sort of) list of people desperately needing attention on at least one day every year.
Why?
Obviously, because I am one of them. My birthday is the June 6th and on that day everybody (including the evening news) always keeps ranting on how the allied hero's started liberating Europe of all things evil. Although this was indeed a rather admirable performance, the thing that I am most concerned with on that day is myself. To make matters worse, my birthday is also the one of King Albert II of Belgium. That may not seem like a problem to most of the world's population, but fate had me born and living in that particular country.
How?
Any person experiencing the same kind of limits to fully enjoying life as it is can leave their name, birthday and features of that particular day in the JOIN HERE thread on the bottom of this page. You will then officially be proclaimed an Unfortunately Born (UB). The idea is that anyone on the list should check the list regularly and thoroughly indulge other UB's on the list on their birthday. Ways of doing this can also be discussed in a thread at the bottom.
The list of UB's
So far, the list is featuring only me, mainly because of the fact that I only created it at this very moment.
