What's a Wreck?

A Cake Wreck is any cake that is unintentionally sad, silly, creepy, inappropriate - you name it. A Wreck is not necessarily a poorly-made cake; it's simply one I find funny, for any of a number of reasons. Anyone who has ever smeared frosting on a baked good has made a Wreck at one time or another, so I'm not here to vilify decorators: Cake Wrecks is just about finding the funny in unexpected, sugar-filled places.

Now, don't you have a photo you want to send me? ;)

Cinco De Mayo Madness

This Sunday is Cinco de Mayo! Or, as it's known in the original Spanish, [rolling Rs dramatically] Cinco de Mayo.

As you may know, Cinco is about celebrating Mexican heritage, culture, and those big yellow hats drunk people wear:

 

What you may not know is that Cinco is also a celebration of drippy cheese volcanoes:

"But it's MY drippy cheese volcano. Nachos."

 

Plus... submarines?

Yeesh, it's like trying to read hieroglyphics. What do you suppose "sperm" "3" "Mayo" means?

Which reminds me: what does happen when a baker can't fit the word "Cinco," and decides to use the number instead?

Well, as Reginald here found out, that depends on if the baker knows how many "Cinco" is:

SO CLOSE.

 

And finally, for your Cinco de Mayo pleasure:

What appears to be angry organ meat...

...on the beach...

...playing maracas.

I am terrified beyond the capability for rational thought.

Olé!

 

Thanks to Colin W., Alicia, Joanna A., Reginald R., & John M. for the real Cinco Swim situation.

AND WHAT IS A "PENQUIN?"

Never mind.

 

I think the important take-away here, minions, is that even when you don't give a hoot about Draw A Bird Day, you can still give... a poop:

WELL OWL BE.

Small naked cartoon child: "Mr. Bowel, how many licks does it take NOPE NOPE DID NOT THINK THIS JOKE THROUGH NOPE.

Thanks to Eileen, Jodee R., Naomie H.,Lauren D., & Alysia B., who may or may not remember this commercial, but most DEFINITELY are craving a Tootsie Pop now:
