Both involve cake so don't overthink it.

If you joined Imgur on your birthday, you wouldn't need to be able to tell the difference, they would be the same day.

Cakeday on imgur is the day you created your account.

I blindly assumed they were synonymous. I just posted a cake day dump on my actual birthday last week… I’m so embarrassed

Pretty much half of imgur thinks cake day = birthday, so no need to be embarrassed. :D

your birthday was the first time your parents saw what color your eyes were

Hah, babies' eye colour actually often changes in the weeks after birth! My daughter has blue-black eyes at birth, they turned brown a few weeks later and have been that colour ever since. (The Dr. swears they didn't swap her at the hospital.)

That sounds like something someone who swapped babies at the hospital would say.

Your cake day is the day you made your Imgur account. Your birthday is the day you were born.

What if I was spawned in an unholy ritual? Does that count?

For your Imgur account? Or your birth?
