I'm totally fascinated and obsessed with others' dates of birth, I remember the date of birth of everybody around me :D My psychologist once even called me a savant for this :) Do you also happen to remember those? My own date of birth is January 27. P.S. I noticed that the majority of people I know, were born on May :D

I remember birthdays too. Names and birthdays I'm good at remembering.

Mine's in April, though I won't say the exact date, for privacy reasons.

I used to.

Just like collecting names, their likes or favorites, and dislikes, etc.

I'm horrible with noticing & remembering dates. Sometimes I don't realize my own birthday is comming up till someone else mentions it. I know the date my bDay is on & say that date everytime I go to the pharmacy to pick up meds or check in for doc appointments but I don't process that date in relation to the current date. Lots of times I don't know what the current date is or quickly forget. Dates are mostly just numbers to me.

yes, in family and relational contexts,
notably there's always groupments, or clusters of some kind, interesting in some useless way


i don"t like the celeb of my date, but maybe it explains some strange thing (or ? is that wishful thinking)
(famous now?.... i haven't heard of any of them, guess looking it up in english leads to all american page?)
- Christopher Columbus's first expedition makes landfall in the Caribbean,
other strange things :roll:
- The army of Cyrus the Great of Persia conquer Babylon, ending the Babylonian empire. -{ how do they know?
- The Salem witch trials are ended
- America's first insane asylum opens.
- The citizens of Munich hold the first Oktoberfest



:nerdy:
ah 6 december, Saint Nicolas day, the older father christmas
i'd say Saint Nicolas is a greater celeb than an actor, though

Mozart, Baryshnikov and Lewis Carroll were born on the same date as my birthday :D Also the liberation of the Auschwitz concentration camp took place then.

Me too - but only with their year of birth because I always compare myself to them in the context of our achievements.
