Cungrate.. Condrag... GUT JOB!
May 18, 2015 Wahooo! SCOOL'S OUT!
;)
Or.... is it?
;)
Not gonna lie: kinda confused right now.
Well, assuming you students aced all your subjects:
;)
(If only they taught USEFUL stuff in school, am I right?)
...then I hear some Congradularons are in order!
;)
Unless you prefer a "Congralulalio" - 'cuz I've got one of those, too:
;)
Eesh. You know, I have so many hundreds of misspelled "congratulations" cakes in the archives I may never post them all. I wonder when bakers decide to just give up completely?
;)
Er, that was rhetorical, guys...
;)
C'mon, now. We have to move on.
;)
STAHP.
;)
What the... Congrauktion.at?!
So, in conclusion:
;)
I think I already did.
Conklenators to Jayne L., Laura A., Debbie M., Bree M., Tammy J., Dara, Candy R., Kristin, Jennifer P., & Kat N. on their stellar wreckporting.

I honestly thought the last one said "Yore a great Bummer"! Must get my eyes tested. On the plus side, the first cake had the apostrophe in the right place. :)
Perhaps, in the spirit of benign educational assistance, a large poster displaying the properly spelled word "Congratulations" in upper case, lower case and cursive script should be required by law to be posted in every bakery.
Bummertime, and the spellin' ain't easy
Schools are endin', and if not kids say "why?"
You think school's useless, and you never learned spelling
No wonder you're bummed out. Don't you cry.
Conlatulatone for wrecking my cake
Congrauktion.at , I’m doing a double take
Congralulalio, you never could succeed
Congratulatios for leaving me in need
This morning I was thinking of my old scool
All that useless stuff I learned, it just wasn’t cool
At night, I lay alone in my bed
With an image of my spell check going ‘round in my head
Congradularons, it seems scool is out
Congrulations, there's no need to pout
Congralations, It wasn’t a deal
Cogngrtaualtons hou gud you must feal
The black rhetorical one, with the long seashell things on it, I can see someone actually thinking that is the correct way to spell it. The same way "fish" is spelled "ghoti."
I may have been here too long, but... I can't be the only one who thought the flowers on the fourth cake were pretty.
*headdesk*
Great poetry SuBee!!!
Sharyn, I had to go listen to Janis after your lyrics!
It appears that "congralulalio" is only an "ns" short of "congratulations." If only the wreckerator had precision to cross the T's and dot the I's.
On Chrissie's giant cookie it looks like "conglatulatione," which, when read with an Italian accent, is actually quite amusing. :-)
"usless stuff" - Do they know their calculus?
Because you + me = us
But us-less stuff sounds so sad...
There's no "us" anymore, now that school has ended, as we move on...
Still trying to figure out what "USless stuff " they were teaching....
@VaBeach alemaP - It's Tom Petty!
My favorite of these misspellings is definitely congralulalio...I will have to start saying that now!
The piece of black paper with "cookies?" on it and what I am hoping is a plate of "flowers". What?
Hi Bea,
The long shell things on the black rhetorical one are French Madeleines, a type of deliciously delicate cakey biscuit. I'm not sure the black thing they are sitting on is even a cake. It looks like a piece of slate used as a serving platter, which was very trendy in French cafes a few years ago. That would explain the little plate of chocolate truffles off to the side. I can sort of see where you are coming from with fish from ghoti, but help me out with the oi combination in congratoilations please.

USless stuff??.....Oy.
We have a girl at my store that spells congratulations wrong
every time she writes it and is a different spelling each time.
The really sad part is there are most used phrases on the order
form and congratulations is on there. It's going to be interesting
when graduation season starts
Wait... weren't the Congradularons the bad alien dudes in UFO?
Oh, no, those were the Mysterons. And it was Captain Scarlet, not the live-action UFO series. (Still Gerry and Sylvia Anderson, though.) Never mind, carry on!
Wow! Congralulalio looks like is was made for me!

That last one -- I thought said, "Ware a great bummer!" Then I realized it said, "Have a great bummer," then OH, SUMMER. mwahahahahaha
Congrauktion.at on a great post!!
Maybe the decorator of Sadie and Wil's cake got called away before (s)he could cross the T's, dot the I and add the -ns. I'm still trying to figure out what the last one says ... hang a gieat brinnnn...??
Shirley Fowley... that's a VERY good idea in theory, but sadly, I don't think it would make a difference in practice.
Meanwhile, I'd like to wish "Conflagrations" to all of these wreckerators!
In defense of cake #3, that is EXACTLY how I felt about school when I was a kid... buildings full of terrible lunches and useless stuff...
Lol these never get old. I suspect they will do this forever since it seems most wreckerators just make up spellings as they go and hope the customer understands it. Otherwise that cake with the red roses was pretty.
May as well just say "coagulations!"
Starknight, you are F A B; I was just popping in to say "Congradularons = Aliens from the planet Congradular", and yours is way better! I just found out that Weta Workshop has done a new CGI version of "Thunderbirds Are GO!", and Lady Penelope has a Pug named Bertie. He wears a lil' blue shirt. That ALONE is reason to see it.
BTW, my Pug is, in actuality, an exiled alien prince from the planet Gruntulon. ALL HAIL LORD GRUNTULOR! Once and future King of Gruntulon! Soon, your empire shall be realized!
Just thought you all should know. Cheers!

SuBee and Traveling Wilburys rule!
Am I the only dirty-minded sod who wonders if, when Mum caught them out, Wil and Sadie said "It's just Congralulalio, Mum!"?
...my mind links to a 9 Chickweed Lane strip where Edda & Amos are kissing and Edda's mum says "The last time anybody congratulated me like that, I gave birth within the year."
I quite like "Congratiolations" as a word. Combines "Gracious" and "Congratulations" in one elegant package.
I think, in an American school, the subject USless stuff is what in other countries is called "International Relations" - you know, all that stuff that doesn't have the U.S. in it. No, really! Those other countries actually exist! So does the moon! I'm serious, kids.
'Congralulalio' would make a great football chant!
Yeah, "usless" stuff... Like the E-rule you learn in 1st grade spelling. Ain't nobody got time for that!
