"Back in the day" I changed my birthday several times a year to see if anyone actually notices or people just push a button mindlessly.

I ended up having generic happy-birthday wishes by the same people over and over.

I learned that you can have a birthday every 10'ish months and no one will notice. (Except for people who actually know when it's your birthday obviously.) More than that and people will start to catch on.

How did you learn that 10 months is the threshold?

I did the same in order and one time got an actual physical card given to me in person by a friend.

Was pretty embarrassing but my close friends present, who knew my real birthday, said nothing.

I was so flattered by the gesture I didn't have the heart to tell him my birthday was not in May.
