So a parent can't celebrate the life they were blessed with and be grateful their child is healthy and survived? [ She asks, arching a brow and reaching off screen for a drink, sipping briefly. ]

A child can't be more special than everyone else for one day out of the year?

Or a man with cancer, wondering every day if the next might be his last can't celebrate surviving another year of battling an enemy he can't see, tearing him apart from the inside?

Birthdays have a lot of meaning to a lot of people. Especially a race as fragile and finite as humans. Say you've lived millions of years, yeah? If you only had 90 parties in all those millions of years, that wouldn't be many parties at all, right?

Most humans are lucky to have 90 years to live at all. So pretend they've gotta cram millions of years of living and experiences into less than a hundred.

You'd party too.
