I was told that by my neighbor when I said it was my birthday. I replied: 'But my birthday was on the 3rd'. He then said: 'Well in that case, may the turd be with you'.

My B Day is May 4th and that is the first time that I have ever heard of that. I guess I am just behind the times.
Keep smiling

Origin
The line “may the force be with you” in its entirety was first said in Star Wars: Episode IV-A New Hope[1], which was released on May 25th, 1977. The phrase was used by General Dodonna[11] (Alex McCrindle) when wishing Luke (Mark Hamill) good luck as he prepares to fight the Empire.
Luke: “It’s not impossible. I used to bullseye womp rats in my T-16 back home, they’re not much bigger than two meters.”
General Dodonna: “Then man your ships. And may the Force be with you.”
It was also famously used in a later scene, when Han Solo (Harrison Ford), who has been skeptical about the force, says the phrase to Luke (Mark Hamill) as a show of support before he goes into battle.
