Missed Marks: Spots, Jeeps, And Impossible Mountains

Amy asked for cheetah spots on her friend's birthday cake, kind of like this:

 

But instead she just got "spots":

Appropriately Timed Fun Fact: Did you know Brits call zits "spots?"

Kelsee ordered this sculpted Jeep cake:

 

...but after driving her crazy, the baker's results fell flat:

I'd steer clear of this place in the future, Kelsee.

And finally, Kendra wanted this gorgeous ombre number for her wedding:

You know that song, "Ain't No Mountain High Enough?"

 

This one was definitely too high.

Sorry, Kendra.

 

Thanks to Amy A., Kelsee S., & Kendra L. for letting us share their pain... and also laugh at it a little.

P.S. I don't get many excuses to share these, but that "spots" cake is the perfect segue. Have y'all heard of "pimple patches"?

The Original Mighty Patch

I first thought these were basically camouflage stickers, but nope, way better. Go browse the thousands of rave review and/or customer photos, if you dare, haha. Fascinating stuff!

Beauty Is In The Eye Of The B Holder

Something terrible has happened to the letter V, minions. It's gone missing.

 

Obviously this disappearance spells disaster for V lovers everywhere, but officials claim they've narrowed their investigation to a few bold characters.

 

"Action words and Bs have had it in for V for years now," stated one official close to the case. "So rest assured we're having a serious talk in here about the verbs and the Bs."

The same official turned out to be a real font of knowledge. When asked about punishments, he responded, "We're looking at life sentences."

 

Thanks to Grace T., Leslie W., & Anna H. for putting the B in "subtle" - plus all these other words for some reason.

Punctuation Saves Lives
