Celebrate the beauty of love!

"Mommy, Daddy! tell us the story again where you and mom got drunk at some party and you kept feeding her tequila shots and then she went to throw up and you held her hair back and then you took her to the room to lie down but then she passed out with her face in your crotch and you thought to yourself "fuck it" and then made love all night and then woke up in a pile of your own shit!"

I do. It's called Valentines day... It's also my parent's wedding anniversary.

tsingi · 6 months

That's a rather clever idea.

We should all be celebrating 9 months earlier.

RoboNerdOK · 6 months

One day we will all say, "Happy Spoogeday, son!"

This is actually what my super-religious brother wants to do.

I thought the only reason we don't celebrate our conception-day was because most of the times we don't know the exact date of conception.

Although I do; it was in my parents' one-year anniversary.

Chinese babies are born at age 1. Just sayin'. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Asian_age_reckoning

upvote for coitus

Birthday.

Johnnyzero · 6 months

Well it is called our BIRTHday, and yes, I'm fun at parties

[deleted] · 6 months

Because your dad can't remember the exact date he fucked that hooker.

neoman4426 · 6 months

I really don't get all the birthday comments. the image says nothing about whether or not those would still be celebrated, it could easily mean celebrating conception day in addition to birth day.

jamesonbar · 6 months

I do its called my parents anniversary

[deleted] · 6 months

Abortion becomes a non-issue. Murder is more common, then. Welcome to the club, it's crowded.

EpiXl33t · 6 months

We could call it our Conceptionday!

Because then most Christians would have to admit they got pregnant with the child BEFORE they got married.

metalmorgan · 6 months

Seeing as birthdays are purely a Pagan celebration, I would ask what a Christian was doing celebrating it in the first place. In which case, I would also ask why Atheists are celebrating them too.

So...I'm the only one whose been celebrating their coitus the whole time? Parent coitus hipster

Bernie_Roscoe · 6 months

The Conception of Mary and Jesus are considered Holy Days more significant than their actual birthdays, by the Catholic Church at least.

orthag · 6 months

Because that'd be creepy!

blackmage1582 · 6 months

As someone who is 20 and 1/4 years old, I support this.

Homeles · 6 months

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned that it takes a few days after sex for an egg to be fertilized. So celebrating the anniversary of your parents' coitus would be incorrect.

Canvasch · 6 months

Well it is called a BIRTHday.

rainboupanda · 6 months

Does that mean when a woman has a miscarriage - her body is committing murder and thus should be imprisoned?

Flying_Robo_Waffle · 6 months

Haha this is a running joke I've had for a long time. I always tell people we should celebrate Conception Day instead of birthdays. Mine is approximately January 23, though how can we really be sure? On my boyfriend's Conception Day I made him hot chocolate.

GinerPretzel · 6 months

cause that would be icky just like gays and poor people

Koreans do, they are born at age 1..

BjornStravinsky · 6 months

We do, it's called dad's birthday.

artsangel · 6 months

I tried to get into a casino when I was 17 1/2 by telling the bouncer I was technically 18 years old already if we measure age starting at conception.

Didn't work. :(

laurensteph · 6 months

I hate to nerd out like this but Elves in LoTR do.....

happyclowncandyman · 6 months

I not only celebrate the coitus that conceived me, but I celebrate all of my parents coitus-.. es. Like a normal person, of course.

etherreal · 6 months

Or have funerals for blastocysts that failed to implant.

mossberg590 · 6 months

Because none of us want to imagine that act. Much better to remember the day we ruined dat who-hah for our fathers FOREVER.

Dweide_Schrude · 6 months

Coitus. I feel like you've seen Big Bang Theory recently...

draculantern · 6 months

well you don't always know the exact date of conceptio, and after all it is called a birth day

peaches_nukka · 6 months

Uhm regardless of one's beliefs about when life starts, I doubt anybody's trying to celebrate their parents shagging. Actually, one of my favorite parts about my birthday is that it's pretty much guaranteed that they didn't do the dirty on that day.

SegataSanshiro · 6 months

More difficult to pin down.

MFNoire · 6 months

Koreans do.

Iamgoingtooffendyou · 6 months

You don't? Knocked up day parties are the best!

AnthonyMichaelAngelo · 6 months

I love coitus.

SampleBins · 6 months

I celebrate it every year. I buy something slinky and lacy to wear, pick up a bottle of nice wine, have a candle-lit dinner with my significant other, and don't think about my parents.

I was born in late November.

MrJonoAnderson · 6 months

How many of you are born 9 months after your Dad's birthday?

bracomadar · 6 months

I really hope this catches on in the religious communities, just for the lulz.

Raggz · 6 months

Because my dad wasn't there so he doesn't know.

Because that's just gross.

csmith97 · 6 months

Birthday. Not Lifeday. Idiot.

OneofthemBrians · 6 months

"Birth"day

mattakasturty · 6 months

Because that is fucking gross

RepostThatShit · 6 months

Because a birthday specifically celebrates birth, not "the beginning of life" whenever that is.

kingssman · 6 months

Or maybe a birthday is a celebration that you made it through the developing stage alive and weren't terminated along the way?

I'd definitely celebrate surviving the risk of abortion.

Nicend · 6 months

Because it's called a birthday....also it's hard to determine which particular time it happened while birth is a heavily defined moment.

edit: why did I actually give a decent answer to this?

Risbypaw · 6 months

Actually life does begin at conception because it has all 6 characteristics of life so... yeah.... but anyways.... Hi?
