Hello! This is the Toyhou.se birthday thread. We noticed that most birthdays here are not hugely celebrated among the forums, hence, it's decided that this thread exist so we can celebrate birthdays of (hopefully) EVERYONE here, as well as a masterlist to compile everyone's birthday. ^^
If you want to be a part of the TH birthday masterlist, please comment HERE to keep things organized. We will try to update the masterlist as often as possible :)
Things you can post in the thread:
Want to celebrate YOUR OCS' birthday instead? We have a character version for this thread!
Toyhou.se Birthday Masterlist:Â (Format still in an experimental mode.)
Remember, if you want to be added to the masterlist, comment HERE.
If you're here to celebrate your birthday, then BirthdayMod wishes you a happy birthday in advance! May you have a great day!
To kick off the thread a bit while we're updating the masterlist... Here's some quick questions :)
Oh hey, I like this thread. I admit that one thing every site should implement is the birthday countdown/reminder thing like deviantART or Facebook have, since it's a great reminder for me to do gifts....lol...
I don't have much to say about fondest birthday memories (especially recent ones) but two most noteworthy ones are:
Also majority of fictional characters that shares the same bday month with me are always born on Valentine's lol
P.S. I'd love a character version for this thread!
This is so cute XDÂ
My birthday is August 23rd. First day of virgo season yeet ♡
Not much find memories recently since birthday is standard sleep in, go out and shop  have cake late at night. Though I got my note 8 this year ♡ usually gifts are some sort of clothing and food. Definitely looking forward to my next birthday cuz I'm gonna be 21 b a b y ♡♡♡♡♡
A character one would be cool too, though I can see it being 100x larger than this one XD
This is such a cute concept! I already commented on the bulletin, but my birthday is October 22nd.
I never give any of my characters birthdays, but a character version would be nice too!
My birthday is March 24th!~ This is a pretty neat idea for a thread :D Would be cool to see a character birthday one, but I imagine that'd get pretty tough to keep up with, so I wouldn't be surprised if in the end it wasn't as feasible.
My birthday is July 23rd!
Your most fondest birthday memory, if you still remember?
I got to meet my friends overseas and they all had bought me presents and I got so flustered by everyone congratulating me I got all red and embarrassed haha. I have never really spent a birthday with actual friends before so it was a particularly sweet memory ;v;
What do you usually receive as gifts on your birthday?
I'm already so old I don't really get birthday presents, but sometimes people draw me art! And my parents usually get me something practical I need, like new bedsheets or socs or something similar!Â
Are you looking forward to your next birthday?
Not really? Like I said, I'm so old my birthday is now just one day among many. I used to make some noise about it on twitter in the past but nowadays I don't bother doing even that since I don't want people to feel like they have to get me something, since I never remember anyone's birthdays either and thus never give anything sdf. Besides, I'm born in the peak traveling season so I'm used to people not being around to celebrate anyway and this year's birthday I actually spent bedridden after some hospital time whoops.Â
Your most fondest birthday memory, if you still remember?
my third birthday! i remember it so vividly - i woke up to have my entire bedroom floor covered in b'day presents, my roof was clouded by a good hundred balloons filled w/ helium and there were another good hundred balloons on the floor along w/ streamers and all sorts of cool shit - there was also an orange wiggly balloon the size of my bed lmao
i still remember most of the presents i got that day, and i still remember that i'd always sit on the same spot on the floor to open them (like i'd walk all the way to the other side of the room, pick one up, then drag it all the way back to The Spot)
i remember this b'day that well that my mum didn't believe half the shit i was saying when i was recalling it, but turns out she had a VHS of the day that she'd filmed on her camera and everything i'd recalled was actually true haha - i think i remember this the most bc as a kid waking up to that seemed so magical u know? it was definitely unforgettable and i've never had another b'day like it (understandably, we're a p poor family) and it was one of the last b'days i had when my parents were together :0 (not that them being split ever bothered me, but hearing them together on the VHS makes me happy)
another one that i feel could be my fondest memory would be my ninth b'day - i spent it in hospital
i'd gotten v sick suddenly and almost died (w/ a whopping body temp of abt 41.5 degrees celsius - still don't know what was wrong w/ me tho?) so i'd spent a good week in hospital on a drip, barely ate tho (like hospital food isn't that bad but when ur spending most of ur time asleep ur toast gets cold bc they don't wake u for breakfast and cold toast sucks)
anyway
i woke up on my b'day to find that one of the nurses looking after me had strung a 'happy b'day' decal along the wall and it wasn't just that that made me smile, it was the fact that i woke up briefly during the late hours of the night to find her putting it up (i was a little bummed that i'd accidentally ruined the surprise for myself but it meant a lot that she did this during the night hours of her shift)
amazingly i had recovered enough that (while the doctors DID kinda wanna keep me another night) they discharged me and i was able to go home and spend my b'day w/ my family!Â
i actually hold onto brief memories of all my childhood b'days if i can help it, things were nicer then - i remember when my mum used to make rly well done homemade cakes like a train one i had, a lala (the tellytubby) one filled w/ those lolly bananas, and one of mixy (god googling her she's a lot scarier than i remember) that i loved! tho my fave cake i still insist on getting despite nearly being 20 is the freddo icecream cake lmao (i'm certain they changed the recipe or smthn tho bc it doesn't taste as good as it used to back in the day)
What do you usually receive as gifts on your birthday?
when i was younger i'd get clothes, dragon ornaments, and trinket boxes (bc despite being a boy i collect them lol) - but now i just get w/e few things my mum can afford ;w; last year i got a pig the pug plush, an abra plush, a dreamcatcher, and a calendar w/ a pug on the cover haha (i'm honestly surprised she went out of her way to get me a pokemon plushie tbh, she's... never been too fond of my collection and keeps trying to convince me to sell it 😅)
Are you looking forward to your next birthday?
maybe :0 i mean not looking forward to being 20 but hopefully i'll actually have my ID by then (still waiting for it to come in the mail - i would've got it back when i turned 18 but i haven't been able to afford it until recently) so maybe i'd finally just be able to go out and get fucked up w/ my mates
well... not completely 'fucked up' i pass out if i drink too much and i don't exactly wanna spend my b'day asleep lmao
but nah i'd just be happy if i got to spend some time out w/ friends :0 i wish i could hang out w/ all of them but after highschool half of them moved to the city for university so i doubt i'd be able to haha
i wrote a lot more than most ppl i'm sorry---
My birthday is May 8!! (and I'm a taurus~)
Update: We'll try to add submissions from this thread, but future submissions should go in the bulletin section so it's easier to keep track of them!
And thank you for the replies on the question! It was lovely reading everyone's answer!
Regarding the character edition of this thread, seems like we might end up doing it if we get more positive responses! Though, we do agree that updating a masterlist of that would be long and quite a lot of work so one more question is:
