They asked for Happy Birthday, with a drawing of a sun.

That's some stellar work.

 

Remember the days of "paper or plastic?"
Now we just have to guess which it is:

Either way, you're getting plenty of fiber!

(To be washed down with bitter, bitter tears.)

 

These are supposed to be pencils:

And this was supposed to bid farewell to summer.

And now, just to get us REALLY depressed:

The Future Of Cake Decorating, summed up in a single image:

(Read the box, my friends. Read it, AND WEEP.)

You scream, I scream, we all just keep screaming.

 

No, no, I won't leave you like that! Here's one last giggle to make it all better:

Jack really likes football, which is what his parents explained to the bakery. More specifically, he's a big fan of the Colts.

Ahh, but GUESS WHAT THE BAKERY HEARD.

Instagram VS Reality: Cake Wrecks Edition

You guys send me a lot of inspiration photos with your wrecks - the photos you supposedly showed your baker while you were ordering.

I say "supposedly" because sometimes the inspiration photos you send are so, SO far off from the cakes you actually received that it's hekkin' hard to believe. Even for ME.

So I don't post them.

I realized this week, though, that the contrast between these pics is still hilarious, regardless of whether we believe the submitters are telling the truth. So c'mon. Let's all make like we're at a Michael Bay movie, suspend our feelings of disbelief, and just enjoy the wrecky ride.

They're all like this. Buckle up.

(Of course I'm using the Instagram vs Reality meme format. Wouldn't you?)

REALITY:

I know. I'm shaking MY head, too.

My favorite part is how they first drew the closed eye lashes... and then changed their mind and drew an eyeball with MORE lashes on top. And then left off the horn and ear and anything remotely unicorn-like. (I see a llama. Just me?)

And finally, why is it the simplest one is my favorite?

Tell me you didn't snorfle a bit. It can't be just me.

Also I'm pretty sure there's a metaphor for life smashed in there somewhere.

I've got loads more of these, minions, so pop your popcorn and stay tuned for the next batch of explosive action!

Thanks to Christine J., Mary Q., Angela L., Jess J., & Keely M. for keeping it real out there.

I went looking for a llama unicorn and fell down a rabbit hole of "llamacorns" before finding the winner:

 Fortnite Dark Llamacorn plush


Apparently it's from the game Fortnite, but all I see is:
