Happy Birthday Happy Birthday

Happy birthday, Happy Birthday song!

You know what's coming next.

BIRDAY

...to you!

Haaaaaapppy

BISLHAY

...to you!

Haaaaaaaaaapppy...

Well, you get the idea.

('Butthday' is my favorite.)

Anyhoo:

Thanks to Lisa M., Kelsey D., Jason M., Stacie H., Melanie W., Whitney K., Ruth C., Rachel V., Jill, Dena, Carrie K., Tina W., & Rachel M., who I bet all agree with me that the birthday song is the worst. Along with anything else you're forced to sing at fellow adults in restaurants. And don't get me started on those funny paper hats. Have I mentioned I'm an introvert? DON'T SING TO ME. But leave the cake. And a fork. No, I'm not sharing. WHAT.

In lieu of singing, may I suggest hanging this delightfully cat-astrophic birthday garland?

 The product photos are a wild ride all on their own, to be honest. Is the kid in the 4th pic supposed to be a cat? And how long did it take you to notice the gratuitously photoshopped kitten-holding-balloons in the "No-DIY Require" shot? Ha!

And from my other blog, Epbot:

July Wrecks Forth

"Ok, staff, July 4th is coming and we need new cake designs. I'm talking stuff that screams, 'AMERICA.'" [pointing] "Jackie, GO."

"Uh... butterflies?"

"I like it. Pat?"

"Maybe a gator-lookin' thing?"

"Smart thinking; we'll ride the dinosaur craze. Gail?"

"Um. Poo cupcakes?"

"We already make those, Gail."

"... with red, white, and blue sprinkles?"

"PERFECT.

"Wesley, my man! Give me something sexy."

"Ok, you're going to love this. Picture, if you will..." [jazz hands] "...FLOPPY WANG."

"Ooooh, EDGY.

"But just to be safe, you better stick to your burning trashcans."

"I told you, they're not..."

[Everyone all together] "Shut up, Wesley."

"Now, Sally, baby! Whaddaya got that screams 'AMERICA'?"

"It's like you're the only one who gets me, Sally."

Thanks to Anna S., Cassidy T., Madison W., D.E., Emma D., & Caroline and Elyse for the thumbs up.

P.S. I texted John to ask if this t-shirt would offend anyone, because I feel like I have friends of all political persuasions who would wear it. John's reply was 2 solid minutes of guffaws, so I'm going with it:

"I Smell Hippies" T-shirt
