Tweet ideas · Birthday
Birthday tweets work when they say something only you could say. For your own, that's one honest line about the year. For a friend's, it's the inside joke or the moment they showed up for you. For a brand's anniversary, it's what changed since day one and who you have to thank for it.
Every tweet on this page is original, written for you to post or adapt. Square brackets mark the bits to fill in.
Below are 50 tweets for all three, plus a group of jokes about getting older. Fill in the age, the name and the details. Specific beats sentimental.
