Let's make this birthday one to remember.

57 years old (Born on September 12, 1967)

Happy birthday, Louis CK! The man who effortlessly turned everyday awkwardness into Emmy-winning comedy magic on *Louie*, giving us countless unforgettable laughs we’re still quoting (often poorly). Your fearless honesty and sharp wit have made your stand-up routines brilliant masterpieces of comedic storytelling—and somehow simultaneously convinced audiences that self-deprecation truly is a high art form.

From memorable supporting roles in critically acclaimed films like *Blue Jasmine* and the delightfully chaotic charm you brought to *American Hustle*, you've reminded everyone why comedians often steal film scenes better than seasoned dramatic actors. May this year continue to gift you amusing absurdities worthy of another special—because frankly, reality needs all the sarcasm it can get.
