Dose it continue after you leave this world?
Google is 'celebrating' Tim Bergling's 32nd Birthday today.
It's nice that they remember him, but it's a bit weird isn't it?
I don't know of cause as birthdays have been celebrated for a long time, but I suspect celebrating birthdays started to celebrate another year with your child as so many died.
I mean I like celebrating mine, and yours. But after you're gone it feels a bit weird unless you were my immediate family.
What do you think?

@yo-its-me saidGoogle regularly celebrate birthdays of famous people. One day it might be Isaac Newton or Alexander the Great.

They probably put Tim Bergling's birthday up to show they were getting down with the kids.

Yeah I expect so.
I mean, I guess birthdays give a date to remember people by if you don't usually remember them; like famous people like you say.
I just think it's a bit weird, I mean there's an ending- it's death.
What I find weird is that they've counted how old he would have been, if he was alive. And he's not. You know?

@yo-its-me saidIt's common to remember celebrities and loved ones on their BD.

@gambrel saidDo you think anything is private? Those cookies that you have to accept to view a lot of sites, that's you telling them it's ok to sell your data and that's why you'll get an ad for a Thai bride when you've been watching Asian porn. Just me?
I once had ads popping up on FB. Right after I spoke with someone on the phone, a landline. The ads were specific too.

@suzianne saidOften “we” are remembered but not for more than a generation or two...unless you are “famous”...outside your family unit.🤔

@great-big-stees saidA generation would be what about 20-30 years. We would be fortunate to be remembered for 2 in my opinion.

@great-big-stees saidI would rather be remembered well by those who knew me than by those wishing a high score on a history test.

Maybe a good question for the forum: What famous character from history would you like to have been?

@yo-its-me saidmom's birthday was the 15th
What do you think?
she passed nearly two years ago
dad and brother and i had lunch, remembered briefly the quirks the lady had and exhibited regularly, then chatted at length about the gastric issues that we menfolk had in common
momma would have approved
so we attempted to fart in unison, again
this is not as funny as it used to be,
control issues, dontcha know
