Friday Favs 8/12/16
Some of my favorite new submissions this week:
Sure, it's August. But why not?
LET'S BUILD A SADWMAN.
That moment when you're pretty sure this isn't what they wanted:

(There was supposed to be a "department" on the end.)
This comma is me at every party I've ever been to:
Out of place, kinda confusing, doing it wrong... but it's THERE, alright? IT'S THERE.
Presented without comment:
...mostly because all the ones I can think of will get me in trouble.
(SHOCKER.)
I wasn't going to show you guys this next one, since I'm pretty sure it's homemade.
But you guys, it won't stop STARING.
So here:
COME SHARE IN MY TRAUMA.
And while we're all rocking ourselves in the corner, here's one more homemade Pikachu cake - just in this week - to make it allll better:
Pikachu Nipples are the new Unicorn Chaser, minions. You heard it here first.
(Anyone remember the wreck she's talking about? The story behind it is gold.)
Thanks to Christy A., Anony M., Sharon B., Laura R., & Gretchen S. for the peek-a-boo.

So...if you don't get #4, you are a much better person than me. If you do......I guess I will be in good company in the hereafter.
Those hands look really nifty! Are they made from the stuff you use to make donuts, because they sure look like it.
Are you sure that first Pikachu is even cake? I mean, it's on newspaper, in front of a trash can, with paint rings all over the newspaper. It looks like paper mache to me.
The non-nippled version of Pikachu looks like he may need an intervention. Seriously, I think he's THIS close to overdosing on . . . something.
I agree completely, Sandy. It didn't look like cake to me either. Not even a wrecked one.
I have to agree with Sandy - I think it's paper mache as well.
In fact, what I really hope for is that it's a piñata - because I know I want to take a stick and beat on it to get rid of those eyes!
Dang it -- those hand-shaped doughnuts looked so clever and cute until they started to go in a weird direction.
LOL Shockers...the student section of Wichita State University (the Shockers) make this gesture during basketball games. Never fails to get me laughing
Well, @Medith, hopefully we'll enjoy each other's company--in a very different way than portrayed here. But hopefully with donuts. Mmmm...donuts.
Pikachu nipples
Are quite the nifty surprise
Now go wash your hands
I don't think that first Pikachu belongs. It doesn't look like cake to me either.
Until I read the comments, I thought the donut hands were the ASL sign for "I love you" and the "rock on" hand known to metalheads worldwide. Now I can't see anything but the icing on the hands on the right.
They sure got the icing white in the first one.
And nice writing on the second one with orange and blue. I thought you loved orange and blue together, Jen?
O_o cake or not, that first Pikachu is dammned in this life and the next...
Why should you never undress in front of a Pokemon?

Cuz they might Pikachu!!!
You're welcome :)
OMG...I can't believe those hand donuts!! those colour choices had to have been deliberate. And while i can see it being papier mache pikachu, it also kinda looks like bad fondant over rice krispy treat sculpture. Either way, I'd still want to take a swing at it...and if it is cake/edible, why is it on the floor beside the garbage can! smh
The "hands" look so shiny ...Is one of them the sign for "Live Long, and Perspire"?
=^-.-^=
I think Methachu is a Pinata. And deliberately disturbing. And he STILL WON'T STOP STARING...
"SHOCKER"... Snortle. Snerk. Hrumphic.
Spelling "infectious" properly would have helped as well!
Do not eat the pinkie finger on #4! Trust me on this.
o.O the hand doughnuts. Seriously what is wrong with you, bakers!! Also you've got to wonder who would buy that?
I'm going to bat for the cookie: Snowman is not misspelled. It's a result of the unfortunate placement of the n on top of a sliver of chocolate, making it look like the letter a. What I do find disturbing is the lack of a question mark at the end.
[Editor's note- I'm going to say you're probably right. What a weird Friday Favs... One cake that's probably correct, one cake we had to pull for no good reason, and one cake that might be paper machete but nobody knows because it's fifteen years old and is a part of internet lore. Think I'll go read a book. john (the hubby of Jen)]
Uhm...well, I guess I'll be there along with the rest of you guys...but keep your hands to yourselves!
Pretty sure that first one is a victim of an unfortunately placed chocolate chip and pore in the cookie.
So they made you remove the infection cake, but not the hand donuts that probably led to the infection! Gah, what is wrong with people, both those that complained about the first, and those that made the second?
Your professionally rendered recreation is better than the original...
Tiffany - The "stuff they use to make donuts" is called "dough". You don't get out of Mom's basement much, do you?
Regardless of the substance abused in the making of that Pikachu, you just know there's a child looking at it thinking "WHAT IS THAT?" with an adult bending down to remind him/her to thank Grandma/Grandpa/Auntie/ Your Mother for all the work they put into this <whatever>. And probably one snarky relative mumbling "one more reason this kid needs therapy."
OMGosh! After a second look for the cake formerly known as wrecked, I also got a second look at the donuts. Lawdy! I may need a smoke after that. Haha!
The staring Pikachu has double pink eye. I sincerely hope that's not some kids project. I'll feel horrible for laughing.
I have lost my appetite for donuts. Particularly, frosted ones.
I had to ask my husband why the doughnuts were inappropriate. I got that they WERE, but not the reference. He explained it after looking at me incredulously & saying "It's been mentioned on @midnight!" Just for the record, I don't get EVERYTHING on @midnight. Some of it I know is supposed to be funny, but not why....
I can say with certaintly that the methed-up Pikachu is not a cake but a paper mache project *usually* attributed to the internet celebrity Christian Weston Chandler. I'm having trouble verifying this fact, but the idea that Cake Wrecks may have just featured it's first Sonichu cake makes me so full of joy.
(Don't google CWC, folks)
I fear the donut hands. Especially the fingers with chocolate and what I hope is strawberry on them lol. Would have loved to see the infections disease cake but seeing the recreation I think I am happy I didn't see it after all lol.
The hands remind me of a bakery near by called "Sticky Fingers " whose logo is a hand with two fingers up that are covered in "custard".
They make nice donuts there
Dear Mr. Editor John ;)
Sorry it turned into such an odd Friday. Thanks for the professionally rendered recreation for those of us who weren't able to check the page early enough - great way to handle that.
Even if it's caused by un-fortuitous placement of a couple of the chocolate chips, it LOOKS like Sadwman to me too: that's a nice calligraphic Uncial "d"..
There is no way those hands aren't meant to be what they look like. Nup. Couldn't be anything else.
I kind of love the weird creepy starey Pikachu.
The professionally recreated cake was a surprise "twofer" : should have read WELCOME INFECTIOUS DISEASE DEPARTMENT " not infections..... If you realize this, thank a nurse 😜😜
Whoever those donuts have been playing with needs to see a doctor about that pink discharge. Maybe a post menstrual yeast infection?
Are those hands? The ones with the Pepto Bismol pink look more like ... well, never mind. Don't let the infectious disease staff get too far away.
I have been a lurker, and this is my first comment- I just could not hold back. That first Pikachu, whether or not it is a cake, is, to me, adorable. I just wanna hug the poor thing.
Like90, I have to admit, if I saw the shocking doughnuts I would indeed buy them. I would just find it too funny not to. X-D
