Let's make this birthday one to remember.

50 years old (Born on July 14, 1974)

Happy Birthday, David Mitchell! May your day be filled with fewer awkward silences than Mark Corrigan's love life and more laughs than Jez’s questionable career choices. Your brilliant wit in "Peep Show" has given us endless quotable moments—who knew existential dread could be so hilarious?

From panel shows to literary triumphs, you've conquered comedy like Super Hans conquers questionable substances—with enthusiasm and delightful unpredictability. Here's hoping this year brings you even greater success (and perhaps a little less internal monologue anxiety).

Cheers to another trip around the sun, David; may it involve minimal cringe-worthy situations but maximum comedic brilliance!
