[2shoes]

photo of them as a baby/young person in the birthday bit of the paper. just hate it. AIBU

yes, you are being a bit churlish

tis a bit of fun

tis funny really.

has anyone ever done it for you??

don't people do it to embarrass the birthday boy/girl? Why would it annoy you if it's not you?

YANBU to hate it, just turn the page and it'll be gone

I agree it's a bit cheesy if they are 18 - but I don't hate it, just find it a bit silly. But I love the ones where they are really old and you have a lovely photo of them all fresh-faced and pre-war, makes me feel almost weepy!

if someone did it to me i would......................................
and you would read the full version in the daily mail

YABU, can't understand why someonw else doing this would bother you.

Is it coming up to your birthday 2shoes???? Cos I only notice stuff like that when it's nearly my birthday....

is that really so irksome so much so that you hate it? don't get what the problem is quite frankly

and perhaps YAB just a little tiny bit U.... lol

i had an 18th b'day party for ds1, put up pics everywhere of him when he was a cute lil boy (not the paper i know but same thing) he loved them! and so did all of his friends and family! cheesy? maybe, do i care? not in the slightest

they're always stuck to lamp posts here

random thing to get worked up about imo. are you due on?

im planning a now and then for antenatal chums as 1st birthday's approache, bring photos of them as newbies, and photos now...can't wait all excited actually

Beelliesebub no I always nose in the birth/death bit just so I don't put my foot in it.

That's very thoughtful of you 2shoes.... lol
