Birthday Candles...Why?

What's the deal with birthday candles? Who the heck came up with the idea? I mean the best thing i look forward to on my birthday is the cake...on my face or in my tummy not withstanding! I love chocolate cake more than anything else in the world...decorate it for me but not with candles! The candles are kill-joy! I'm so happy that i was born on this day and i wanna celebrate it! Just don't remind me how old i am by adding another candle every year...it gets more and more difficult to blow them out every progressive year! How am i supposed to get my wishes granted when you keep making it more and more difficult to blow them all off in a single breath?
Why, for crying out loud, CANDLES?

P.S. Wasn't my birthday that prompted this!
But candles? Why?

hehe...no it isnt...was watching this movie where the birthday boy was cutting his cake and had to blow out 30-odd candles...i was just wondering what you would when you're old! you'd be outta breath!

dont worry dude! when one grows older people generally keep only one candle irrespective of age.
So just make sure you are healthy enough to blow off at least one candle ;)

@Teji:> hehehe...happy that someone's around me? i do not plan on being a hermit you know! although honestly, i'd prefer the cake to the people on my birthday...more of it for me! i'll meet the people after i'm done with the cake! you cant have the people and eat the cake too! hehehe...
