Let's make this birthday one to remember.

47 years old (Born on October 04, 1977)

Happy Birthday, Bert Royal! May your day be filled with more laughs than Charlie Brown's therapy sessions and fewer existential crises than teenage blockheads. Your brilliant wit in "Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead" continues to remind us that even beloved cartoon characters have awkward teen years.

Here's hoping this year brings you as much success and applause as your clever scripts have brought smiles (and occasional tears) to audiences everywhere. Keep writing those unforgettable lines—we can't wait for the next masterpiece from the mind behind our favorite rebellious teens. Cheers to another year of comedic genius!
