Granny's Birthday Gift Is, Well . . .

Don't let Granny fool you. She may act all surprised, but she put this item on her birthday wish list. It's a far cry from a set of knitting needles, but it'll make her happy. In the end. (Thanks, College Humor!)

Sweet Sixteen Meltdown

GiggleSugar — Wed, 05 Mar 2008 10:00:00 -0800

MTV's Sweet Sixteen really knows how to pick 'em. The birthday girl in this episode (identified by the crown on her head, natch) is given a brand new Lexus for turning 15. There's just one problem: it's not the day, time, and exact second of her birthday and she's not in the mood to accept premature gifts right now. So she does what any respectable spoiled brat would do: stomps, screams, cries, cusses, and ultimately calls off the party. You understand.

All These Years, I Knew It!

If only we could say the same for the numbers on the birth certificate.

Today's Your Lucky Day...Psych!

The fam gave the birthday boy a lotto ticket and after giving it a good scratch, the dude discovered that - omigod! - it's a winner. This has to be the oldest prank in the book, but our boy fell hard for it. While his lovely family stood back and stifled giggles, he did his victory thang. He even cheesed up his hair for a photo. And then he read the fine print. . .

A Doggone Birthday Disaster

Birthday cake is sooo overrated. Birthday balloons, on the other hand...

Cake: It Does a Body Good

But this is just wrong. A blow-up doll would have been way classier. (Did I just say that?)

Thanks, College Humor!

"Passive-Aggressive" Parenting

Unnecessary quotation marks kill the sentiment. Are we clear on that, "Mom" and "Dad"?

Happy B*tchday!

Remember the sixteen-year-old sweetheart who turned sour at the sight of her brand new automobile because it was red, not blue? Well, misery loves company because the following birthday brat screams to the beat of the same drummer. After all, it is her party and she can cry if she wants to- you would cry too if your mother were cuter than you.

Happy Birthday Marilyn Monroe!

Marilyn Monroe, who infamously sang "Happy birthday, Mr. President" at the age of 35, would be celebrating her 83rd birthday today. In honor of her birthday, LIFE.com released 15 never-before-published photos of Marilyn when she was only 24 years old and far from famous. Her star quality shined through at a young age, but when the photographer sent the photos to LIFE in 1950, the magazine wired back: "Who the hell is Marilyn Monroe?" Now the magazine is sharing the pictures - almost 60 years later!

Happy birthday, Marilyn.
