It's Mr. Bigmouth's birthday! Steven Patrick Morrissey turns 54 miserable years young today—to view it in more fitting terms, this means he still hasn't met the right person to die in a fiery bus crash beside. But there are so many other things to be grateful for: tea time, vegetarianism, book deals, and of course, cats h/t Morrissey With Cats). After you peruse the birthdaygrams above, go ahead and spend the next hour listening to a robot recite Morrissey's wiki entry to you.
