Cel-e-brate good times, come on!

This news item is more than 45 days old. Updates are unlikely and newer information may already be available.

Today, the 6th of December, is to be a day of celebration.

It is of course, "19 days until Christmas" Day!

However, this day shall also be remembered for the day that Robert Harry Gore joined the world, or theperfectdrug as he not very often doesn't like to be known as.

Rob is a bit of an enigma, in that his very existance is a scientific impossibility. He is a Global Moderator on these here forums we sometimes venture onto, which means by default he's a really cool guy. However, he is also a Leeds United fan, which by default should mean he is one of life's famous failures. The very possibility of a Leeds fan being cool is surely a contradictory to the extent that the space-time continuum is threatened. But we're still here, so maybe he's just so cool he's an exception to the rule. Yeah, must be that.

Rob lives in Hull, which as we all know, is the third worst place to live in England (following a canal and Liverpool). Parliament have tried to close down Hull on numerous occasions, probably because the space could be better used in a number of ways including a nuclear power station, landfill site and a botanical garden. We suspect Rob's infinite coolness has stopped them from doing that.

Rob is 20 years old today, which means he needs to get a move on if his plans to become as amazing as Mike and Jeroen are to ever be recognised. As everyone knows, you officially become "past it" at 40 years old, which means Rob has already wasted 50% of his life indulging in such activities as playing pool, watching a load of amateurs kick a football around in the THIRD DIVISION and erm.. well, living in Hull. We're going round in circles now. Now that Rob is 20 he can do all sorts of cool things. Especially if he lived in Japan, where he would now be at the age of majority, and could be described as hatachi. That's what Wikipedia thinks anyway.

Extremely excitingly, today also happens to be the birthday of admin Dragonpika, known to her friends as Dragonpika and to people who don't know her as Kay. Kay's birth certificate wrongly lists her birthday as the 26th October, but since she was not given a birthday news update on the 26th October, her birthday certificate is clearly in the wrong here and definitely, definitely not Mike.

Kay is 18 today, which makes her extremely cool. For example, should Kay wake up tomorrow morning and think "I might go and live in the USA today", she now legally has the right to bear arms, own property, marry without parental consent (in almost all states), get an abortion, donate her body to science, and serve on a jury. Possibly all at once as well. Although since she can now legally be under the influence of alcohol as well, that just became an even greater possibility.

So there we have it. Two birthdays in one. Feel free to leave them all sorts of pleasant messages or blackmail threats in the comments below. They might even read them one day.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROB (AND ERM, KAY!)
