Let's make this birthday one to remember.

50 years old (Born on August 19, 1975)

Happy Birthday, Mike Pallagi! You're the screenwriting wizard who seamlessly crafted engaging tales for Nintendo and captivated taste buds globally with those unforgettable McDonald's adventures. Rumor has it even Mario takes script notes from you these days!

As if delighting gamers and burger-lovers wasn't enough, your bold leap into producing "What Is It?" back in 2005 still keeps us all questioning reality—and cinema itself. Here's hoping your birthday is as timelessly entertaining as your creative achievements—filled with fewer plot twists but more cake-induced happiness. Cheers to another year of storytelling that's tastier than fries and more epic than battling Bowser!
