[01]
The creator acts out a skit where one friend realizes he forgot the other's birthday and proceeds to aggressively gaslight him into believing his birthday is actually today. He uses fake props like a handwritten ID and birth certificate, and stages phone calls with mutual friends and parents to corroborate the lie, culminating in a surreal country music video celebration.

when you forget your friend's birthday:
Yo. How was your weekend? Yeah. It was good. What'd you get up to? Well, Sunday was, my birthday. Hold that thought. I'll be right back. K. I didn't know today was your birthday, dude. Happy birthday. What is this? What do you mean what is that? It's clearly your ID. Couldn't help but notice your birthday is today. This is a piece of paper, and my birthday was on. Hey. Can't you good that thought? I'll be right back. Happy birthday, dude. What the is that? That's your birth certificate. Isn't that cool? This is not a real birth certificate. It doesn't even have my name on it. It just says you were worse. Look at that. You were born today. Twenty nine years ago, so happy birthday. You know what? We should clear this up for you. I'm gonna call Greg to get him to tell you when my birthday is. Greg, $50 to pretend this is Trump's birthday today. Yo. Hey, buddy. I heard it's your birthday today. Happy birthday. Today's not my birthday. What the fuck's going on? Is that the first person to wish you happy birthday today or something? You know what? I'm just gonna call my dad because he was fucking there when I was born. So he can clear this up for you. Oh, hey, Jeff. Oh, god. Your son's gonna call you. He's gonna ask what day his birthday is, and you're gonna say today. Hey, son. Hey, dad. I just have a question for you. When is my birthday? My birthday? Well, it's it's today. What the fuck? I don't know where you just went, but I'm gonna call my mom because she lives across the country, and I'm gonna ask her because she gave birth to me. Today is your birthday. Dude, just relax. I know you forgot my birthday. I just don't want no reflect our friendship, man. I want you to have a happy birthday. I don't know when your birthday is either. I've only memorized, like, three people's birthdays, dude, and one of those is my own. I I have to check Facebook like every year to to remember what people's birthdays are. And we just celebrate both of our birthdays today. Happy birthday. Like a rhinestone cowboy. Well, I just worked it out, didn't I? Send this reel to a friend if you forgot their birthday. Hear that friend receiving this video? Good damn it. Happy birthday, you son of bitch. And tell your friend, check Facebook next time. Write it down or something.
