What's This?
August 4, 2010 Earlier today John had the song "What's This?" from Nightmare Before Christmas stuck in his head.
After looking at these Wrecks, now *I* do.
There's color everywhere
There's white things in the air
What's this?
It's orange and so hairy - what's the deal with those two berries? I don't care!
What's this?
[bumpahbumpahbumpabumpabumpabBUM]
What's this? What's this?
I can't believe my eyes,
What's this?
A donkey tank surprise?
What's this? A swirly mass so curly, could the purple be too girly? Should this song be ending early? No we're going 'til we hurl-y!!
Could it be, oh could it be? Did I get my wish?
Here's something that makes sense: a meteorite bird fiiiish!
What's this?
[dumpadumpadumpadumpbaBUM]
[wheeyouwheeyouwheeyouwhee...]
What's this? What's this? There's something very wrong!
What's this? That blue thing's really long.
What's this?
It's positively crappy, and yet I feel so happy, have I possibly gone sappy? I think I need a nappy 'cuz this song is kind of rappy so I guess I'll get a frappey and go shopping at the Gappy...
WHAT.
IS.
THIS?!?
S.K., Patrick T., Chris E., Reagan B., Rebekah W., Austin L., Alex S., Kaylyn M., & Mikaela, your guess is as good as mine.
Oh, and for your continued "enjoyment" I have a special treat today: while we were writing this post, John & #1 (aka "the other Jen") kept singing it to get the cadence right. This...got really entertaining.
So, I decided to tape them.
"Enjoy!"
(If you're wondering what my contribution is here, I'm the one doing the scrolling. And giggling.)

The words are so spot-on that I not only cried tears of joy, I may have given myself some asthma trouble.
The red one 2nd from the bottom is a fire hydrant with water coming out of it. Lol its just turned on it's side.
The first one is unicorn poop! Duh!
I think the first one is smurf poop.
The video didn't work so I missed the hilarity of that, but honestly, the first one is a pile of dog doo as is the last one, that looked like what the dog ate, like a box of crayons they seem to love so much. Never the less-WHY???
The last one is a Dog House cake...lol
Wow.... just wow...
A Unicorn Poop!!! (cake #1...)
That last cake must be a Yak turd.....
My Eyes! My Eyes!!!
Re: the first cake....What do you mean "What's this"? OBVIOUSLY it's unicorn poop! :P
Nightmare Before Christmas. Win. The video doesn't work anymore, but I'm so obsessed with that song that I could hear it, I loled, FOR REAL! Thanks :)
the second last one is a fire hydrant duhhhhhh
I think the first one is unicorn poop.
This post made me properly LOL!
It looks like Rainbow Brite threw up on that first one!
Crack me up. Me 5-year-old just looked at the computer over my shoulder and said, "What is that?"
The only on one I can moderately recognize is the red one. I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be a fire hydrant. No promises though.
I'm going to guess that the orange thing with the "berries" is supposed to be the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
Everything else... I got nothin'.
I cannot view the video :-( I am a sad panda
#1. Did they catch the rainbow cow that took a dump on that cake yet?
This website has had me in hysterics for an hour! Hubby & baby are asleep & I'm tittering to myself like a lunatic lol.
You should take slides of this stuff and do standup comedy with them showing behind you on a stage... it would be a hit, because my husband thinks I'm nuts when he's downstairs and hears my laughing and my response to WHY am I laughing is "This chick that does cakewrecks is killin' me!!!"
It's a rainbow turd!!!! The last one's just a turd on a gingerbread man...
I'm so late, but I think the orange thing with blueberry eyes is the Lorax from Dr. Seuss.
That was brilliant. Honestly, I sang and laughed the whole way through. In fact, I've been laughing my way through your blog for the past hour or so.
This post, however, takes the "cake". Get it? Ahaha. Haha. Ha....aaaanyway. Awesome blog. :)
That last one is a fire hydrant, I'm pretty sure.
Ok here's my best guesses:
1. Definitely a unicorn turd. (I was reliably told by my cousin's daughter that unicorns poop rainbows ... LOL!)
2-5 ... erm .... I got nothin' there.
6. I agree with the 'meteorite bird fish'.
7. Not real sure, but it looks like someone could possibly have already eaten it.
8. My first thought was maybe a rocket ... maybe ... *scratches head*
9. Poo lizard. Definitely.
I am so happy that I found your page! It's awesome. But the first picture up top is a cake with unicorn poop on it lol I'm not kidding cause I actually had a poster that had the same looking thing on it, and it was unicorn poop. LOL
It wont let me look at the song :(
wow...unicorns really DO poop rainbows!
This is the best blog post of ALL TIME. Thank you for putting in the bridge of the song as well. Nobody ever does that. It was...beautiful. *wipes away tears*
And this is my second favorite post, because I love Nightmare Before Christmas so much and you did an amazing job with it and with matching cakes...!!!
Where is the video?
