People born on Leap Day, do you celebrate your birthday on February 28th, February 29th, or March 1st? (lemmy.ml)

Also, how would that work on things like birth certificates?

Turned 13 today. I complain that my wife only buys me a present every four years. She says if I keep saying that, it may come true. Also, at work, I tell them to excuse my behavior, I'm just acting my age.

As far as 28th vs March 1st, well, I celebrate both days. If I'm getting scammed out of birthdays three out of four years, I'm taking an extra day on those off years!

Does your wife know you're 13?
