Yep. today is March 26th - and that means it’s Randall’s birthday! Yay! BUT It also means that it’s the Purple Day - a day of epilepsy awareness. So wear something purple today to both celebrate your favorite monster and support epilepsy awareness. You can find more info about the Purple Day project here: The Purple Day Project Website

Interesting coincidence, then, CrazyDiamond! A shame I just confirmed I don't have any purple clothes at this time.
Anyway, I'm pleasantly surprised how many people are celebrating his birthday. WoC even got a temporary makeover thanks to CrazyDiamond. XD

To celebrate his birthday, I'm wearing purple, and my pants that have a snakeskin print.

There's been a popular headcanon/canon(?) that Randall is 40 or 41 years old....I don't want to think he's that old! ^^; (I know it's canon that MU took place 10 years before MI and with speculations on Mike's calendar, but we don't know for sure if it took place in the 1990s or not, feel free to correct me if the directors said anything about the time period) But if a sequel is to be made, I'm sure the directors will reveal when it has taken place after the events of MI.

Yeah, a friend of mine actually has evidence against that claim: in one of the books for MI, it is revealed that he's 25 at that time, meaning he'd be only 38, now. But yeah, I hope more clarification is given, myself: for one, as a musician big on retro music, I can say that Swedish House Mafia (whose music was playing at the ROR party) is NOT '90s at all.

Yeah see, I had heard years ago that it was revealed he was 25. But that was well before PIXAR came up with the idea for MU. So if he WAS 25, then that means he'd have only been about 15 or 16 when he started college, and that's obviously not right. So we're led to believe he's actually between 27 and 29 during MI. So based on that...if we skip ahead 13 years to this day, he'd be about 40 or 41. Honestly....it's so confusing to me I really don't want to think about it. I saw a post on tumblr that went into incredible detail about all the different dates and calculations and my brain was screaming. Until there's definite confirmation of his age, we can just take our best guess based on the evidence we've been given.

I quite like the idea that MU happened now and that MI was actually in the future so Randall technically wold have been born in the early 90's. I love that idea and who ever came up with it.

Yeah I really don't think they wanted to give the character's canon ages, they just wanted to make fun movies. Speculation is cool, but it's just speculation. I've got my own theories, but at this point, I'd rather just say Randall's having a birthday today and have fun with it.
(Too bad I didn't finish any art of him today. I'll keep at it and maybe I'll complete it soon...)

One of my headcanons is that I like to think he was a college prodigy though at 15. He looks so young in MU!
