Mama MIA!

Tabitha G. ordered a Mario cake for her five-year-old's birthday party.
You know Mario, right?
Yeah. This guy.
And that's when things went horribly, hilariously wrong:
"Did-a somebody call-a a plumber?" [eyebrow waggle]
No, no, take a moment. Soak it alllll in. The leather biker hat. The earring. The collar. The nipple and gratuitous chest hair. Oh yeah, and the fact that his lower half is on backwards. (Why? WHY??)
How did this happen? Why does this art even exist? And seriously, what the heck is going on with that front butt?
The world may never know.
We DO know the bakery replaced The Village Mario here with a free Spongebob cake, though.
So Tabitha, just one question:
Was SpongeBob wearing a gimp suit? :D

I feel so bad for the lil' birthday dude! My daughter asked for a Mario cake for her 7th Birthday, and the little specialty bakery we used to go to did a Sunday Sweets-worthy job. This is clearly Bear Cub Mario. Not that there's anything wrong with that... Yes. Yes there is. For a five year old it's just a bit too 1970's lib-by Playboys openly displayed on the coffee table creepy.
@athersgeo-thanks for the new phrase!!! Sheer wtf'ness!!!I could use that every day at work!!!
Ahahahaaa!!!! Nope. Just square pants!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for posting. And almost two months later... still hilarious!!!!!!!! :D
Looks to me more like he is leaning against an invisible wall and crossing one leg over the other. Oh, and that "front butt" definitely a "man bulge" if you know what I mean! Lmao. This cake is so totally and completely wrong!
Now, whenever I play a Mario game, I'll end up thinking about that cake. Good job.
W.T.H.? THIS IS PRINTED. And available to be printed again.
I'm with SuBee~ speechless.
Is 5 year old Tony staying at the YMCA?
1st what's gimp mean to you and this to me rates up there with mohawk babies
[Editor's note- I didn't know what a gimp suit was either. Turns out, it's a full body black rubber suit. I don't know how Jen knows about it. O.o -john (the hubby of Jen)]
Cannot stop laughing thinking of Mario and his after hours activities. Who know he was into fetishes? The twisted side of me wonders how the other brothers dress up after dark.
Anyone notice the collar!?
Does anyone else hear the theme music from the Blue Oyster Bar from the Police Academy movies or is it just me?
I hate to say that I don't think that is his bottom but the front bulges of (ahem) well let's say he is supposedly very happy and no that is not a package of long pepperoni
Mari-OH NOOOOOO!!!!!
This is clearly a set up. Boo to the person who tried to pass this off as a genuine cake wreck mistake.
Are the Village People missing a member???? LOL
@SaraCVT, it is a source of constant and crippling shame for us Canucks (especially those of us living near the Toronto area) that right now, when most Americans think of Canada, they think of Justin Bieber and Rob Ford. I seriously hope a Canadian does something GOOD that gets reported in the international news soon... Not all of us are crack-addled alcoholic overgrown children with an overdeveloped sense of entitlement.
somebody lost a job I hope.
I'm with Subee. The birthday kiddo was probably as happy as a plumber with a case of Drano. He also could have just turned 40-something.That's not a nipple, either. It's a spare suspender button. So there. =^~.-^=
I didn't think it was a backwards butt....I thought it was a bulge >.> Guess my mind is even more filthy than the Mario. :-O (P.S...It also kinda looks like he's had one too many mushrooms.)
Creepy!! Not to mention the stoned-looking eyes.
Y-M-C-A!!!!
Didn't anyone have any misgivings having written "Happy 5th Birthday" on it? No??? Didn't ANYONE at the bakery do a double-take and then recheck the order form? NO??? They didn't notice that Mario had a severely broken knee??!!!
When I can pick myself up from the floor from laughing so hard I will ponder these questions further!
Chest hair and a man nipple, just what every 5 year old wants to see on his birthday cake.
What kind of bakery would do that to a childrens charachter especially for a 5 year old.
I think he's got love handles and a prominent package instead of front butt... the whole is total wtf'ness.
So, I had to Google "Dirty Mario" and I actually found a picture of Ron Jeremy (fully dressed) as Mario. Bwahahahahahahahaha

I don't think it's a front butt, I'm sorry to say... It's supposed to be a man bulge.
@karen, I know the person who submitted it and it is NOT a setup. It is legitimately what she was given after asking for mario. And to her horror this is what she got. The store made it right after she pointed it out to them...
"'You must be the plumbing repair man.'"
"Lord, you can see where this is going."
"He fixes the plumbing?"
Oh man lol. At least I hope the replacement cake was better than whatever the heck this was. Can't even begin to fathom how this even happened. Brain gone.
Lmao!! Yeah. I would have a cake made up so that on my son's fifth birthday I would have to call a regional office to let them know I received an inappropriate cake hours before his party. That makes complete sense. Don't be jealous that you haven't had a horrible cake made for you! ;)
This is maybe the best Cake wreck ever. I am disturbed by how well-endowed Mario is! I am cry-laughing
The image is the second image that comes up when you search "gay Mario"
Gay Mario
So they had to be looking for it.
Oh - also - this art exists as fan art. People think Mario & Luigi are... you know, together. *wink wink* You should see what's out there between Kirk and Mr. Spock. On second thought, maybe you shouldn't.
There's so much going on here that I don't know where to look.
That may not be a front butt, it may be a crotch bulge... not that it is any better!
Ohhh boy. Perhaps I should take away my son's Mario & Luigi dolls now. They go EVERYWHERE with him. Sometimes they are accompanied by Bowser or one of his one-in-every-color-of-the-rainbow-and-then-some collection of Yoshi-es. And if he asks for a Mario birthday cake, I sure will be *very careful* where I purchase that cake! I will also be sure to bring a Mario doll so they know what the cake should look like! :-)
PS Perhaps everyone's joking, but I think that 'pink triangle' is actually a heart. It's too dark (and upside) down to be the pink triangle traditionally (?originally) used as a symbol for Gay Rights...which was originally used by Hitler to ID gay men :-( ...which is partly why it was swapped out for a rainbow flag specifically designed in 1978 to represent the entire LGBT community. (And there's your social studies lesson for the day! :-)
@jean and john(thoj) - How does Jen know about the gimp suit? No worries! They covered it in a recent episode of 'Elementary' where someone stuffed the murder victim (not knowing it was a murder, no less!) into a 'gimp suit' so that the victim's employer could claim he violated a 'morals clause' in his employment contract and thus refuse to pay his family a 'bonus' sudden-death lump sum. Anyway, I'm *positive* that's how Jen knows about this gimp suit, john, and you don't...unless she's been disappearing lately for long stretches of time....naaahh. She's probably just going to the gym - New Year's Resolutions and all that, just to look extra-sexy for her ol' johnny boy. Yeah, that's got to be it... ;-)
Go home, Mario. You're drunk.
All I can think is that the baker got fed up with people asking for copyrighted images they didn't actually have any rights to use, so he decided to do the most offensive one he could find.
My only question is...why is Mario wearing Wario's pants?
I use to be a cake maker at two different chains, one a grocery store the other an ice cream confectionary. I have personally met many foreign cake makers who also work in these chains and surprising as it is, a majority of them don't know who a lot of popular characters are, example, Spongebob, My Little Pony, etc. What is pictured here is called an edible image- you take an image from a USB drive, place it into a special printer and print it into this material. The best I can imagine for this situation is that said cake maker did an image search and, somehow, this very image popped up. I've seen my share of goof ups; images that had nothing to do with what the person ordered because the maker had no idea what it was. Given that they're foteign, they could have typed something like "Stupid Mario," because that's what their ears hear.
... Or we're just dealing with an asshole.
Yeah, that's not 'front butt'. That's love handles and a curvy 'package'.
Possibly the cakerator (cake perpetrator) just Googled 'Mario art' and picked the first one he could find at print size. Or he's a rebel who hates his job...
Given the apparent proclivities of the wreckorator, are we sure that the replacement wasn't a "SpongeBob NoPants" cake?
