- It’s today.
- It’s trending on Twitter.
- It’s … wow I can’t think of a third reason.
- Does that count as a reason?
- Jennifer Lawrence turns 23 today, which is a good age.
- Hm.
- Although for many people, it’s a frustrating age.
- It was okay for me.
- Being 24 was better than being 23.
- But it might have been a different experience if I’d been an Acadamy Award winner and a Vogue cover star.
- There’s still time.
- How will I ever come up with eleven more reasons?
- Apparently celebrity birthday roundups are a daily column in some newspapers.
- I thought of calling The Columbus Dispatch to ask when and why the paper first started printing the feature.
- But I didn’t.
- Why should some poor reporter busy serving the fine people of Columbus, Ohio care about me having a slow news day?
- And anyway, it would be better to ask an archivist or a historian.
- But again, I couldn’t go through with it.
- Although it’s a legitimate question.
- Why do people care about celebrity birthdays?
- (Apart from anyone who has to create Internet content or write celebrity birthday columns for the newspaper.)
- I reserve the right not to care about anyone who doesn’t care about me.
- Happy birthday Jennifer Lawrence!
