I was born in New Jersey 49 years ago today. My Dad worked at the @uspostalservice and took me to the movies every week while my Mom made me empathetic and called me Tiger (which she still does). As a kid, I was never into sports, politics or even reality: I fell in love with comics, movies, TV & pop culture. One day, I found an adventure story my Sister was writing featuring her and her friends. When I was baffled as to how she had the audacity to write a book without the government’s permission, my Sister said the thing that would shape my future: “Anybody can write anything they want. You don’t have to ask anybody for permission.” So I learned how to write stories on an old electric typewriter, and the first thing I concocted was a satirized take on visiting my relatives that made my Brother laugh. His reaction to my words made me believe I could maybe write for a living one day. So I spent years writing for the fun of it - until one day, I saw a Richard Linklater film called Slacker that made me think I might be able to make a movie too. So I went to the @vancouverfilmschool, where I met @samosier and @davidkleinasc. A year later, we gathered together at a convenience store I worked at named Quick Stop, and along with @jaymewes, @briancohalloran, @marilynghigliotti, #JeffAnderson and more, we made a movie called CLERKS. Since then, I’ve made lots more movies as well as an ungodly amount of podcasts, had my own TV show about me and my friends, opened a comic book shop, and become a tick on the ass of pop culture that cannot be burned off with a lighter (that’s how we rolled in the 70’s). And in my real life that exceeded my fantasy-life-come-true, I married a wonderful woman named @jenschwalbach and Fathered an incredible daughter named @harleyquinnsmith. My heart attacked me a year and change back, but we’ve since come to an understanding. Today is the first day in the last year of my 40’s, so I’m going to try to fill the next 364 days with joy. In aid of accomplishing this, I’ll be touring my new movie @jayandsilentbob Reboot from October to March, meeting the folks who like to listen to my stupid stories. Thanks for always giving a shit! #KevinSmith

Happy Birthday! Thanks for sharing this ❤️. I used to draw comics on Friday nights instead of going to parties (I still had a 40 oz and @wutangclan playing though 😏). The first comic I ever made was Captain Condom (an illustration to go with a health class paper. I got a 90 and a lot of laughs). Once I had children I started writing short stories that included them to help them with reading fundamentals and to motivate them into using their imagination. I would have a quiz attached to the end to test their comprehension (and to ruin the fun lol). It’s amazing how the smallest inspiration can set loose one’s imagination and / or impact their life.

Happiest of Birthdays Kevin. I have been a fan from the start and am so thankful that you beat the #widowmaker and are still here to spread love and art in a way only you can. Other than my grandfather, you sir are the only person I’ve heard live by the simple rule that it costs you nothing to be kind. He taught me that at an early age, along with two more than I live by. Every day above ground is a good day, and if you love someone tell them every chance you get. All three have served me well. I hope 49 is a banner year for you and here’s to about 49 more on this rock!

Last Saturday was the one year anniversary of my stroke I was in excellent health it was a defect in the blood vessels. Just a ticking time bomb. So last Saturday I got married(we took back that day and made it ours) to the amazing woman (my girlfriend at the time)who saved my life, literally, @5rottens figured out what was happening to me and called 911. Time is of the essence and thanks to her I lived and the excellent EMTs doctor and nurses. I'm glad you are still here making cool shit! Happy birthday!!

Hey Kev, been a fan since I was 11. Anyway, last September I was in the hospital recovering from cancer removal surgery and while listening to you talk to Joe Rogan about your heart attack and everything you went though, you made me laugh, for the first time in a long time. I can't explain how much that meant to me. ❤️👏👏👏 I'm glad you're still here buddy. Maybe one day I can personally thank you in person but until then, this will have to do. Thank you.

Happy Birthday Kevin! Keep killing it. I met you about 22 years ago at a WRAT house party. We were just a bunch of kids playing clawsic rock and a few originals at the party. You stood by and listened all night and talked to us and took our demo tape and wished us the best of luck. I've always been happy to see your success because you're an honest and genuine guy. Enjoy the rest of your life brother!

Happy birthday @thatkevinsmith! I first saw Clerks in college, and it became a cultural touchstone among my friends, and people who'd become my friends through our common love of movies, and quoting them with can only be called annoying regularity. Appreciate your contributions to our in-group banter. It wouldn't have been the same, without "bunch of savages in this town..", and many other gems.
