    My freshman roommate in college had a birthday the same month as me. The day of her birthday, she told me “Oh, by the way happy birthday. Your’s is tomorrow, right ?” I thought that was just a random acknowledgment, nothing more to it. She had a birthday dinner that night and came home with a paper fast food cup. “This is for you” is what she said. I looked into the cup and saw ice splattered with soda drops. I tried to politely say “You got me ice ?” Her answer was “Yeah. I had some left over and I thought you’d like it. You can use it tomorrow on your birthday.” She was a bit offended when I said “Oh *ahem* that’s okay. You’ll want to save it for, um, the next time you have a drink. Or something…”
