Let's make this birthday one to remember.

51 years old (Born on November 14, 1973)

Happy Birthday, Andy Stanton! From cartoonist doodles to bluesy vocals and stand-up comedy stages, you've worn more hats than Mr. Gum has schemes. Your hilarious tales have delighted countless readers—after all, who else could make goblins lovable or secret hideouts so ridiculously entertaining?

Your imaginative storytelling in the nine unforgettable "Mr. Gum" adventures continues to charm generations of giggling kids (and secretly chuckling adults). May your birthday be filled with as much mischief and laughter as Lamonic Bibber itself—and here's hoping your cake isn't baked by Billy William the Third! Keep bringing joy; you're timelessly funny and forever fantastic!
