So it turns out today is Anna Kendrick’s birthday, which uh, good for her?  I mean, birthdays are cool and all but at their core it’s deeply silly to celebrate the fact that you didn’t die for an entire year.  It’s not really that hard.  Except it’s not really about that, really, at our core we like to express how happy we are someone exists.  Or you know, we’re narcissists who insist other people express that.  We all have that friend, right, the one who mentions their birthday is coming up for like 2 fucking months and then organizes some big thing and then acts touched like I can’t believe you guys are all here for me!  And it’s like, well, you invited us.  There’s going to be cake.  Let’s not act like someone’s giving you the medal of freedom, you invited people into a situation that would involve free cake (I mean people just go apeshit when free cake is brought up.  Seriously, ask any Bourbon, people lose their heads over free cake), it isn’t quite like getting 300 men to defend a small pass against thousands of Persians or anything.  But you know, good for you.  Anyway, my basic point is that I normally don’t even notice this sort of thing or particularly care.  This blog isn’t really about celebrating birthdays, I mean, that would be a pretty great tumblr so go make who I want to sing Happy Birthday to Today and I’ll follow you but that’s not this one.  But Anna Kendrick has shown up on my dash a fair bit because other people are noting her birthday and I get it because she is pretty great.  Like I get the crushworthyness.  I get why you want to celebrate her existence because she is smart and funny and just seems awesome.  I too want to celebrate her existence and wish her happy birthday.  Also today I want to fuck Anna Kendrick.
