Happy Birthday! Your personality is now set like plaster.This was an allusion to the belief among some psychologists that your personality is "set like plaster" and basically impossible to change after age 30.
My reply:
Fuck! I had so much self-improvement planned for last night that I just didn't get around to.An interesting reply, I think... perhaps not proving that personality is fixed at 30, but maybe in several ways illustrating that I have much self-improvement left to do. Let's hope the psychologists are wrong.

Happy (belated) birthday!
I wish I was still as together as I was at 30.
you rocked fox news. way to break into a new decade.
sarah, what on earth were you doing watching Fox News?
Hey, don't hold that against S.S... I had tipped her off that there was going to be a bit about my research on the local FOX affiliate... here's the video:

Oh my goodness! That is awesome. I know a local celebrity!
(I totally want a job where going to sites like Hot-or-Not is "research.")
Fabulous!
(and happy belated birthday!)
DW, thank goodness. I thought I was going to have to organize an intervention. And frankly the menu was stumping me.
Dear DW:
Are you deceased?
Worriedly,

Happy Birthday! I'm sure your personality is still a little malleable, but it's a great one, so why mess with it? That said, I'd agree that there's some truth to fixing at 30, but probably more in terms of personal preferences than in personality. (i.e, you know your likes and dislikes aren't going to change, and probably your dislikes are going to grow until you're 40).
