Okay, as much as I hate to say this, I'm not proud to be an American. Even on a day like today, I'm not very proud to be one.

This is not a confession. Stop "confessing" stuff that aren't confessions. I believe even a mod has said this.

Yeah, the mod said only serious confessions should be posted here. Saying your birthday's in a few days isn't a serious confession, so try to stay in topic, guys.

What would you know about it? That's actually my birthday, and it is a confession because none of you knew that. Now stop being stupid.

It's not a confession. There is a difference between a statement that people were unaware of and a confession.

Confession according to Merriem-webster:
the act of telling people something that makes you embarrassed, ashamed, etc.

According to oxford:
An acknowledgement that one has done something about which one is ashamed or embarrassed:

wikipedia:
A confession is a statement made by a person or a group of people acknowledging some personal fact that the person (or the group) would prefer to keep hidden.

You are embarrassed or ashamed about your birthday? No you aren't. Don't call me stupid, I never called you names.

Of course not. But see? You pwned yourself.

Now...anything else?

Oh, you want to keep your birthday and the fact that you have a job or a car hidden? I highly doubt that. I certainly wouldn't call that a serious confession. Also, I did use wikipedia as a source myself, obviously, but wikipedia is not nearly as good of a source as merriem-webster and oxford, so it doesn't really supersede them. More like it just enforces them. If you aren't embarrassed or ashamed by your confession, it's not a confession. Stop it. You can't seriously say that your birthday is a serious confession. Don't be silly.

Maybe I did. The way the internet works, you never know who's wanting to know stuff about you. Believe it or not, bringing something to light that people weren't aware of is a confession. It goes something like this so you can understand: Alright, I confess, my birthday is in 10 days. Or, Yes, I confess, my car is actually the green one.

The two authorities on the english language (Oxford and merriem webster) beg to differ. You can't change the meaning of a word to fit your own purposes. Words have definitions for a reason.

Sorry, you are wrong. I have already proved you are wrong (well, more like, the dictionary proved you are wrong), and you are refusing to accept it because of your own ego. I'm done. Keep posting your false confessions.

Oh, I am wrong? No, look what it says here, and this is good old google:

Your revelations are far from intimate. Approximately 19 million people have the same birthday as you. Even if under some strange interpretation of confession, you could barely fit your "confessions" within the definition, they are still not "serious" confessions. Everyone else realizes this is true except for you, probably because you think it's funny or something.

This will truly be my last post on this matter, this has just gotten silly.
