Just a quick thread to see what happened on/will happen on the birthdays of escapists that they regard as important.

Just give it a similar format as below:

My birthday is the 15th of March (The Ides of March) and on this day Gaius Julius Caesar was stabbed to death in the senate. Incidently, the Defiant mappack for HALO Reach is to be released on my birthday...


I swear, if anyone 'assassinates' or 'betrays' me..

What will happen to me on my birthday that I think is important is that I turn a year older. Also my girlfriend will probably do some nice shit for me and maybe I'll get a present from my brother if I'm lucky.

Not going to go into historical stuff or whatever because public dates of birth can be used for identity theft purposes. I would advise anyone posting in thread to not give away anything that would reveal their actual birthdate to a stranger, especially if they have their real name in their profile.

October 13: Same birthday as Paul Simon. I personally find that very cool, being a big fan of Simon & Garfunkel.

Well I turn 18 this year (FINALLY) on April 9th and all I know is that it's the same day that Gerard Way, Kristen Stewart and Jessie McCartney were born.

I just found out I share a birthday with Al Capone (January 17th). That just made me feel a little more badass for today.

December 21st:
Winter Solstice
Shared birth-date with Ray Romano, Samuel L. Jackson, and Kiefer Sutherland (damn awesome actors in my opinion)
And, if the Mayan Calender superstition is to be believed, the end of the world next year.

May 20th: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_20

And I quote, "2010 ? The first annual Everybody Draw Mohammed Day was celebrated. The event caused Pakistan to shut down the social networking site Facebook in their country in protest."

Lovely. >_>

20th of August.
I couldn't be bothered picking through all the events for the most interesting ones, but I share a birthday with H.P. Lovecraft. Cool or what?
