Poor Kelley With Only One Eye
October 11, 2016 Somehow literal LOLs just never get old.
I mean, how can you NOT imagine this baker's thought process as s/he carefully inscribed, "Kelley with an eye"?
;)
THIS BAKER: "Poor dear, but at least she has ONE eye! ...though it's a little odd for her friends to point that out. Hm. I wonder if they know a Kelly with no eyes, my, wouldn't that be dreadful. Ah well, that's another order done!"
And do you think this baker called the customer, "Mr. Colors"?
;)
But my favorite - my FAVORITE - has to be this one:
;)
Tell me the baker didn't write "Big 15" that tiny on purpose. Even if it was on some deeply subconscious level, somehow, she knew, and she was totally trollin'.
:D
Thanks to Albus D., Giana B. & Jamie M. for not making a big deal out of her "big" 15.

Ha ha! The "Big 15" is tiny! Anyone notice? >D
Good night... "John-Boy?!" (Leaving now, no need to breakout the tomatoes).
One more, and I swear I'm gone: I suppose John-boy colors are wall tones?
The first one has a simple explanation actually. Albus D, that's PROFESSOR Dumbledore to you kids, ordered the cake for his lady friend Kelly who happens to be a Cyclops.
Oh Celia!
"Boy-colors"... Is that a French surname? (blinkblink)
The first cake was made for Kelly, a resident of The Little School for One Ocular Organers. Overshadowed by its more well-known neighbor, Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children, this is a boarding school for up to 26 unique children. Founded by Dr. Sy Klops, it serves children with only one eye, and admission is limited to one child whose first name begins with the letter A, one whose name begins with the letter B, and so on. The school’s motto, “Aye, Eye!” shows their emphasis on being positive in all facets of life. Happy Birthday, Kelly!
Too bad "Kelly w/ an one eye" didn't have a pirate cake.
I think the BSU decorator had a late night; maybe there was some drinking going on... (it happens).
That second cake takes me back, watching TV in the 1970s, that family show all about Depression-era cakes, "The Colors" (da da da da da daaaaa, da da da da da daaaaa, da daaaaaaaa)
"Goodnight Ma"
"Goodnight Baby Freestyle"
"Goodnight Pin"
"Goodnight John-Boy"
"I want sprinkles!"
"Boy colors" means blue, among others, I guess. Well, they did get that one. I wonder what the other boy colors are.
I like to think that second baker did that "boy colors" thing on purpose, as a way to fight against the arbitrary gendering of things like colors.
But probably not.
That first cake. I would have loved to see a big eyeball beneath those lovely roses.
Uh. What the HECK are "boy colors"?? Or John-boy-colors????? Signed, confused
Oh the baker on the last cake TOTALLY knew what he/she was doing :D ;)
Ha! I totally heard the commentary for the one-eyed Kelly cake in Molly Weasley's voice as I was reading it.
As a Kelley with an EY, I would just like to say that people are always offering me I's and I don't want them, thanks.
Perhaps Kelly's friend group has more that one Kelly and the other Kelly has no eyes. Or maybe two. Probably no more than that.
Seriously, I was listening to a radio story this week about a guy was one of only two black kids in his school when he was growing up. The other kid was missing an arm. Everyone referred to him as the black kid with two arms. I suppose that when the other kid got a cake it said "Black Kid With One Arm" in gloppy frosting.
As for John-Boy's cake, what do you expect from a depression era bakery?
The Kelley cake is the story of my life.
No, I'm sure Boy-Colors isn't a French surname.
Blue is a boy color.
What an idea... colour code our infants so strangers know what their genitals look like!
(that's all that comes to mind whenever I see "boy colours" or "girl colours")
Not pointed out in the wreck, those aren't even BSU colors! Orange and blue man, orange and blue!
Oh, Celia!!!
Well, if Kelly/Kelley/Kelli had no eyes, he/she would never be able to see his/her beautiful personalized cake. Or, get offended that said cake clearly spelled out (pun intended) the fact that he/she had no eyes.
Kelli:
Thank you for posting! I was actually trying to figure out how to spell Kelly with an "i" - I was thinking the cake was for someone named Keilly, Kiley, or Kellie. At least I know I'm not the only one who can't figure out the correct spelling. (On the other hand, I'm also not a cake decorator who thinks "eye" is a letter.)
Oh, and just FYI (because I love searching for trivial facts): John-Boy colors, which are apparently red, blue, and yellow, are also the colors of the following countries' flags: Andorra, Chad, Moldova, and Romania. So, maybe that Wreckarator was just a geography buff, or a vexillophile (flag enthusiast--again, love that trivia!)
I think Kelly's eye ended up on John-Boy's cake.
Lol would love to know what john boy colors are exactly? Did he come with his own color scheme on the Waltons? Lol this is hilarious.
Head, meet desk. Desk, head.
.... if that's the bsu late night I think it is it's doubly a wreck because the actual name of the event is 'Late Nite', or all my college commemorative tees are spelled wrong
ONLY ONE EYE
by Lillian E. Curtis
"Oh! she was a lovely girl,
So pretty and so fair,
With gentle, lovelit eyes,
And Wavy, dark-brown hair.
I loved the gentle girl,
But oh! I heaved a sigh,
When first she told me she could see
Out of only one eye.
But soon I though within myself,
I’d better save my tear and sigh.
To bestow upon some I know,
Who has more than one eye.
She is brave and intelligent,
Too she is witty and wise,
She’ll accomplish more now, than many
Who have two eyes.
Ah! you need not pity her,
She needs not your tear and sigh,
She makes good use, I tell you,
Of her one remaining eye.
In the home where we are hastening
In our eternal Home on High,
See that you be not rivaled,
By the girl with only one eye."
I think this demonstrates the same spirit in which the title wreck was wrecked.
(BTY, THE WORLD'S WORST POETRY by Stephen Robins is a truly marvelous volume of verse to own.)
