Shoot From The Tip

(Warning: Mildly naughty stuff ahead)

Some of my favorite new submissions this week:

 

For Lori's 30th birthday her friends thought it would be cute to get her a "2nd quinceañera" cake - quinceañera being the popular Latin American celebration of a girl's 15th birthday.

Now, Lori's baker may not know how to spell "quinceañera," but darned if she isn't a wiz with Hooked on Phonics:

Go on. Read it aloud.

RIGHT??

See, now I want to call up this bakery and order something in Klingon, just to see what I get.

I know the holidays are over, but here's a look at how one bakery guaranteed they wouldn't offend ANYONE this season:

Peace on earth. Goodwill toward non-gender-specific beings.

 

Oh! But you know what's NOT genderless?

Q: What's that shooting out from the tip?

A: I dunno, but I do know this:

"He shoots, he scooooores!!"

 

Thanks to Lori B., Ryan C., Ben W., Lori M., & Amanda M. for a real blast.

Hey, here's something ALSO rocket-related and unfortunately phallic:

First, HOW ADORABLE ARE THESE BALLOONS? I'm seriously considering them for my Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy birthday party this year.

But second, look where they put the air intake valve on the first astronaut. [facepalm] Yep, it's Spider-Man's tingly spidey sense balloon all over again. Why. WHY.
