I agree with this guy: It's OUTRAGEOUS that a bunch of pencil-pushing bureaucrats won't let average people bend space and time.
A guy just shared a story on Reddit about how he and his wife had their first child at 11:05 P.M. on December 31st. But when he was filling out the information for the birth certificate, he put that his son was born at 12:05 A.M. on January 1st.
Why? Quote, "2020 was a [crappy] year, I'm glad it's finally over, and I don't want my son to be associated with it. This is unfair to my son because he only lived in 2020 for just one hour."
He wound up getting into a shouting match with the nurse and then the doctor, and they took the form away and wouldn't let him fill it out. And then his wife got mad at him for making a scene at THAT moment in their lives.
For what it's worth, my first thought was: What a dope TAX-WISE. The DREAM is to have a kid born on December 31st. You get the deduction for the whole year. Why don't these loons ever call me first?!?
