The Mickey Mouse Mind Trick
November 18, 2016 In honor of Mickey Mouse's birthday I'm about to give you a crazy cool gift: I'm about to make you forget what Mickey Mouse looks like.
Impossible, you say?
Then WATCH THIS:
;)
;)
;)
;)
It's slipping away, isn't it?
;)
Is this right? Can you tell?
;)
IS THIS REAL LIFE?
And finally, here's one from a vintage cake decorating book that proves they just don't make 'em like they used to:
;)
Thank goodness.
Happy birthday, Mickey!
Thanks to Marion G., Marshelle G., Saturn S., Nicole A., Heidi L., Anony M., & Emma P. for reminding us Mickey used to eat childrens' souls. Ah, the good ol' days.

Isn't that 4th one Felix the Cat?
That last one is terrifying!
But I think the fourth one is supposed to be Felix the Cat rather than Mickey.
Is the 5th one 2 upside-down cupcakes frosted...over the paper cups???
Genius use of toilet paper rolls to hold up the ungainly heads in the 6th one, wreckers!
And I had no idea that Mickey used to have sharp pointy teeth! At least the modern wrecks don't, so there's a silver lining...
Well, considering how rabid Disney is about copyright infringement, perhaps these bakers were just afraid of getting sued. That's the charitable explanation...yeah, I'll go with that.
(But really, Disney is nothing to even smirk in their general direction. A company that makes mostly childrens' content is scarier than monsters under the bed. Really.)
They all look more or less like Mickey except for the last one.
On the bright side, the fourth one works well as a Felix the Cat cake.
Is the 4th one supposed to be Felix the Cat?
That first one looks like Winnie the pooh with Mickey facepaint.
That fourth one looks more like a cat from an old comic strip. Didn't they used to make wall clocks like him and the tail was the pendulum?
Oh Mickey you so fine... NOT
At Mickey's age he's had to have some work to keep up with the kids. Maybe these are paparazzi shots from when he was healing ya know? :) Or may from when he clone was being generated in the lab? Or maybe when space aliens took him over?
That fourth one looks like Felix the Cat!
"Happy end Anniversary," Mickey!
Is that meant to be "2nd?" I thought it was "and," but zoomed in to see if it might be a "2,"and it wasn't. Maybe a "2" that died of embarrassment?
The third one looks like Mighty Mouse.
It looks as if somebody slipped our favorite mouse a mickey!
I'm thinking that first one is actually the Hamm's Beer Bear.
M-I-C, See all the wrecks, K-E-Y... Why? Because they can't draw, M-O-U-S-E
I think the first cake used the Tigger cake pan. Both Disney characters so it should be fine, right?
Your blog always makes me laugh, but, for some reason, this one really struck me--hilarious! I know my limitations, I do not even try to decorate a cake that resembles characters or objects (and I have 4 kids). My kids get good ol' plain frosting.
The 2nd one looks like a bear out of the old Tex Avery cartoons, while the 4th one definitely looks like Felix the Cat! The rest of them.... smh
@Susan D: brilliant observation - I was scrolling so fast, I missed the TP rolls... at least they could have decorated them. Well, maybe not.
@Lady Anne: Hahahahaha!
I had the same thought as several others... I think the 4th one is Felix the Cat. The others are so bad and if the 4th is really supposed to be Mickey, it's just as bad as the others! =D
@srandall, you win 5 Internets today! (It looks like Mickey has been *hit* by his own club!)
Oh man poor Mickey. Even Minnie would run away from all of those cakes lol.
!. A cross between Mickey and Pluto

I think the second picture is actually Doug from the comic strip Tom the Dancing Bug.

I think I hear Donald Duck's distinctive laughter coming from somewhere.
GOOD JOB :)
