Simon: Hello Melissa! I hear today's your very special day. I find myself luxuriating in the glow of a midday sun, choosing today to take a break from putting final touches on our new album, which will arrive in stores sometime next year. This break is my very special birthday present to myself, and this message is my very special birthday present to you. You were born on one of the best days of the year to be born, darling. Take pride in it. And no, I'm not biased, not at all! Ok, so some curly-haired redhead Dallasite is calling me to go back and wash some dishes for her -- they really should make that state's slogan, "Don't mess with Texans", darling -- I just wanted to take some time to wish you a very special birthday and to tell you to take time for yourself today. Over and out to my secretary, who is *gasp* another Texan! Fucking hell, I'm surrounded by these people....
*ahem* So anyway, on behalf of Simon LeBon and the rest of the crazy gang here, hoppy boitday.

happy birthday! and i'm sure you are not old.
― Daniel, Esq., Wednesday, 27 October 2010 20:05 (fifteen years ago)
happy birthday Melissa!

HBMW, I hope your flooding emergency was not too much of an emergency (sorry, saw the thread way after the fact but had no useful advice)
― what is he like? the guy's a juggalo, man (a passing spacecadet), Wednesday, 27 October 2010 20:14 (fifteen years ago)
Towels seemed to do the trick, but I suppose I'll discover in a few weeks if surprise mold is growing under the floorboards.
And Daniel, I feel very old. 27 looks like a much bigger number than 26, and I already feel feeble of both body and mind. And this thread is 7 years old, which makes me feel older than anything.
― Melissa W, Wednesday, 27 October 2010 20:53 (fifteen years ago)
Happy Birthday, Melissa.
(Yeah, 28 was my hardest b-day. It gets easier after that.)
― A Reclaimer Hewn With (Michael White), Wednesday, 27 October 2010 20:58 (fifteen years ago)
And Daniel, I feel very old. 27 looks like a much bigger number than 26
i remember 27 fondly, speaking as a 42 year-old.
― Daniel, Esq., Wednesday, 27 October 2010 21:13 (fifteen years ago)
It's a shape thing. The 7 looks so harsh and angular. I will actually be relieved to be 28 and back to round, loopy numbers.
― Melissa W, Wednesday, 27 October 2010 21:19 (fifteen years ago)
hm. i'm not looking forward to staring at the rounded shape of the 3 in 43.
― Daniel, Esq., Wednesday, 27 October 2010 21:20 (fifteen years ago)
Naw man, 27 is cool! It's 3^3. 3^3! I say as one 27-year-old person to a fresh new one, happy birthday.
― 17th Century Catholic Spain (Abbbottt), Wednesday, 27 October 2010 21:21 (fifteen years ago)
You are old only in ilx years, but quite young in real life years.
― mh, Wednesday, 27 October 2010 21:25 (fifteen years ago)
3^3 is a pretty compelling argument for 27, I must admit.
― Melissa W, Wednesday, 27 October 2010 21:25 (fifteen years ago)
Do you mean that I am ilx old in that I've been posting on ILX for nearly ten years, or that the average age of ILXors is now younger than I am?
― Melissa W, Wednesday, 27 October 2010 21:26 (fifteen years ago)
You are not going to live to be 4^4.
― 17th Century Catholic Spain (Abbbottt), Wednesday, 27 October 2010 21:26 (fifteen years ago)
That sounded like a threat until I remembered math.
― Melissa W, Wednesday, 27 October 2010 21:35 (fifteen years ago)
I was going to throw a "probably" in there to make it sound less memento mori but tbf I am about 100% sure none of us cats is gonna hit 4^4.
― 17th Century Catholic Spain (Abbbottt), Wednesday, 27 October 2010 21:36 (fifteen years ago)
27 bummed me out more than 26 or even 30, too, and I cheered myself up with the knowledge that:27 is n to the power of n; you probably didn't notice the last time your age did that, and I don't know about you but I don't count on making it to the next one27 is age-checked in some songs by uh corny indie fuxx like Herman Dune and Echo Is Your Love (ok, that only sells it to me, not anyone else on ILX)
so 28 was kind of sad because I had lost those !facts!, but after that it has been getting easier, yes
(xposts regarding 3^3)

27 is the number of stanzas is Milton's "Ode on the Morning of Christ's Nativity" but I'm not sure you would find this a pro-27 point.
― 17th Century Catholic Spain (Abbbottt), Wednesday, 27 October 2010 21:38 (fifteen years ago)
Also you can spend the whole year telling people you're trying not to die.
