Hey, you put a giant dog bone on your cake, you're going to get a few Freudian slips.For the new mom coming home with the baby:
Guys, here's a tip: subliminal messages work better in audio.Of course, when you're actually trying for something a little risque, you can count on a Wreckerator to botch that up, too:
This was supposed to say "unexpected semen."Aw, you couples and your pet names for each other! You're just so gosh darn cute.
Megan N., Alana Q., & Anony M., in the spirit of this post I'm sending you a wholly inappropriate (but mercifully virtual) butt-slap each right now. Great job!
- Related Wreckage: Inappropriate, Much?
UPDATE: I'm told that the last cake was from a hubby to his wife, and that she was an accidental pregnancy. So yes, it was an inside joke gone wrong, but I think she still found it funny. That's all I know! Promise!

Oddly enough, the balloons on Margaret and Fiona's cake appear to be balloons and not colorful sperm.
Talk about your missed opportunities for subliminal messages.

Oh, my stars and garters! o_O
Cake #3…I’m still trying to get my head around what the original message was supposed to convey…and how they expected (heh) anyone to eat it.
Good lord, even that comment was inappropriate.
(Hmm, can’t say that…really can’t say that…nope, that comment will get me banned…OMG, way too risqué…think I’d better just let it go.)
Concern trolls complaining about this post in 3…2…1… :D

Cake #1 makes me want to call PETA..The last cake makes me just want to barf.."seamen" LOL
I could never eat a cake with the word "semen" on it. ewwww
Okay, who am I kidding... I'd still totally eat it.
OMG I literally snort laughed at the first one!!!
On the last one, I read "Haby" and "Unexcypted" - I think you gave the Wreckerator too much credit there Jen.
Dog Dong day? Dog Gone day? Ding Dong Day? Head hurts. Confused.
Re: cake #3. That's okay. They can just cuddle.
"Have a dog ---- day"?
No thanks, I'd rather not.
Uh, I guess I tend to be too literal, but if Margaret just gave birth, isn't she probably too sore for that just now?
I guess the last one is some kind of inside joke. I'm scrtching my noggin, trying to figure out how "unexpected semen" would be better than "unexcepted seamen."
I'm not quite sure what the first one was supposed to say...
But why would the original message be...er...uhhh....
omg. just omg. Just supposing I were going to say something like that on a cake, I'd order it from the bakery sans writing and do the writing myself. But honestly, I just wouldn't do it at all!
And people think black roses and candy skulls are iffy. HUMPH.
I'm with Tigerwolf on cake #3. Though the botchy botch is funny, what the heck is unexpected semen supposed to mean??? :)
It's really a shame about #2. it's one of the few cakes we've seen that actually makes balloons look right.
as for #3... I just don't get "unexpected semen" written on a cake. HUH?
But, honestly, I don't mind some unexpected seamen showing up if they're cute.
that's what she said.
I too, am terribly confused by the last cake. Is it meant to be a jibe at Hayley? Is it unexpected or unaccepted? Also, I read Haley as Holey. Which, when read with the rest of the text, sounded like an x-rated Robin quote.
Holey unecxepted seaman,Batman! ; )
Recapta: anifoo Anifoo can tell where the decorator's mind was on cake #2.
On cake #3, perhaps Haley was the result of an accidental pregnancy and her loved ones use cake to remind her of this once a year.
#2--Isn't that what got her into that prediciment to begin with? On second thought, maybe it is accurate after all.
#3--Maybe they couldn't put "semen" on the cake because of the bakery policy? Wait...I think I worded that wrong
Well, hello0_O, sailor. *snort*
I think perhaps the second one was supposed to be a command. "Welcome. Hump Margaret."
I'm going to guess that #3 in fact was supposed to read: An Accepted Seaman, and celebrated Haley's entrance into the Navy.
Sometimes the funniest part of your post is the appreciative remark to the wreckporter, so I hope you don't mind that the rest of us read them too! :D
I'm thinking the last one was supposed to be "Unaccepted Seaman." That would imply that the recipient was not qualified for the Navy, and they got a cake to commemorate the occasion.
Does that make sense to anyone else but me?
I guess the "Hump" is supposed to be "Home," but the call taker had fondant in his ears. I still have no idea what the "Dong" was supposed to be.
Huh?
I had to literally sit and think about the 3rd cake to understand what is was supposed to mean.
NOW I get it! Birthday . . . how is one conceived . . . oh, that's right . . . semen is involved . . . oops, didn't expect that . . . especially on a cake!
Huh? Shaking head in disbelief, muttering to self . . . walking away from computer.
Fade to black.
Why do I choose to read this while I'm eating lunch? Lol.
Anna Marie
LMAO, that title immediately brought a South Park episode to mind ... ahhh, the differences between sea-men & semen ... and what happens in the South Park world when you combine the 2 LOL
okay, wait, on the last cw, i need more of an explanation. It was supposed to say: "Happy Birthday Haley/Unexpected Semen"???? What? Why? Inside joke? I just can't figure why that would appear on a cake....jen? story? thanks!
"Unexpected Seamen"
Haley: Gee, thanks, Mom, for reminding me I was a 'oops baby' This is much classier than the comet crashing into a house cake you got me last year.
/eyeroll
I see you went with chocolate rosepoopbuds. I guess the bakery was out of little plastic male strippers in sailor suits, huh?
hahahahaha
The comments (along with the cakes and Jen's brilliant wit) have me roaring with laughter today. Thanks everyone!!!
I love the suggestion that it's a punctuation error on #2, & supposed to say "Welcome. Hump Margaret."
heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee THANKS. Laughter is good for the soul. :-D
Lily
Well. That last one is just unexceptable.
(Cutting the cake) "Who wants the hump?!?"
If I was a parent trying to explain to my child that they were an unplanned, surprise pregnancy and they still didn't understand, I would simply show them the "unexpected seamen" cake.
If that doesn't convey the message, nothing will.
Really, what's the "unexcepted seamen" mean? I mean... it could be... oh, well it might mean... maybe it's about... huh, oh, I was just thinking it was supposed to be... well, gee, I don't have any idea.
And a dog __ day? Do we not like the person we're giving a cake to? Is the cake poisoned? Is a Dog _ Day the opposite of having a Happy FalkerSatherhood?
I'm with them--the ones who want more details on what and why cake #3 was supposed to say. I'm quite impressed by those who've managed to morph it into the acceptable "an accepted seaman" but I'm not buying it.
I don't even want to know WHY someone would want "unexpected semen" written on a cake in the first place.........
wv - sterli (pronounced: stair-lie) - With all that unexpected semen flying about, someone ought to sterli that last cake!
In #2 the beer in the background explains a lot - A drunken, tired new father should never be allowed to write on a cake.
Maybe it was supposed to be an instruction? To draw unexpected semen? Because really, who expects taht on their cake anyway? Which is still really high on the Ick Factor scale.
the first and the third cake confuse me to the point of a headache, so I'm choosing to ignore them.
The second cake is a tragedy, really, because the balloons actually look like balloons and the writing looks good. Too bad the wreckorator didn't think about what s/he was writing.
Um...yeah, anything else I can think of adding would be wildly inappropriate, so I'll just say AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA and leave it at that.
Funny! Don't you just love subliminal messages?! :D
Well, for cake #3 Maybe, since it is Hayley's Birthday it could be possible that she received the uhm "Unexpected Semen" as a er gift. Or if left as written and not what it was suppose to say maybe Hayley's daddy is was an Unexpected Seaman.
Regarding cake #1, I have a friend from China whose given name is, believe it or not, Dong. Just makes the inscription even more bizarre if I think of it applying to him.
Re: Anon 11:38 AM:
I think perhaps the second one was supposed to be a command. "Welcome. Hump Margaret."
No, that's what got this whole thing started!
I think not giving us a back story on the seaman cake is cruel. Very cruel.
LOL....
I imagine the last one as someone trying to convince her parents that her pregnancy is the result of sitting in the wrong jacuzzi or something, but her parents counter with, "No, honey, we know it's more like the story of 'The Unexcepted Seaman.' It's a story as old as the Navy itself. Never should've tried to raise a daughter in a seaport town..."
What’s even more worrisome about the third cake is…don’t these people realize that, during certain types of recreational activities, semen can be VERY HIGHLY EXPECTED?!?
“Oh, dear…I can’t imagine how THAT happened, honey.”
^..^
Tigerwolf
WV: lusyn. "This wouldn't have happened if he didn't keep lusyn his personal protection!"
OO-ER Mrs!!!!
I'm also with Tigerwolf. I'm assuming it's some bad inside joke they should have kept to themselves...hahaha? Nice job wreckies, "keep 'em coming"
Perhaps cake #3 is from somebody that Haley turned down?
Thanks for all the laughs...I'm sitting here at my desk trying not to laugh out loud.
WV: cominag ....after CW's like these I'm not even going to try to explain this!
Could the first one be "Have a Dog Bone day?" It's written over a dog bone and in a loud bakery, I think someone hearing "b - o- -n- e" could have mistaken it for "d - o- n- g".
I thought Margaret's "balloons" looked a lot like breast implants, actually. Did she get a new, er, "hump" following a mastectomy, perhaps? In that case, the hump's homecoming might just be the star attraction here.
"Oh, yeah, good to see the rest of you, too, Margaret. And, uh, happy birthday Fiona, by the way. Nice headlights, everyone. Oh, look, a cake."
Maybe that's supposed to read "unexceptional" semen? There's a lot of that in the world. Sometimes it grows up to decorate cakes. :P
Ha ha. I actually read the first cake as "Dog Gone Day" and wondered what was so wrecky about it. Ha. Thanks to the comments, I figured out my error!
I stumbled across your blog today. I haven't laughed this hard since I found Regretsy. HILLARIOUS. Keep it up!
The third one makes me think of this:
There’s seamen in the entryway
And seamen on the stair
And worst of all, there’s even seamen
In me underwear
There’s some behind the larder
And beneath the table, too
I do believe your seamen
Got into me Irish stew
There’s seamen here in front of me
And seamen in the rear
My God—there’s even seamen
Hanging from the chandelier

funny Wrecks... I enjoyed them.
Inside joke or not, that's just disgusting on a cake.
For some reason I find the football worm poop cupcakes the most disturbing a close second would be the ugly cloud football
maybe the cake was instructing the guests on the best way to greet Margaret when she arrived at the party.
Even if the 1st cake DID say have a Dog Gone Day, WHO wants a cake that says that?! What was the baker thinking and who did they think would buy it? My guess: people wanting giant dog heads as key chains...wait a second...giant dog heads...dog dong...giant bone...somethings wrong here.
I think the inside joke gone wrong was a blessing in disguise. It would have been much worse with the intended "unexpected semen" on it!!!
"I'm told that the last cake was from a hubby to his wife, and that she was an accidental pregnancy. ..."
Wait a minute, so this guy's pet name for his wife is "Unexpected Semen"???
That's pretty disturbing.
If I were the cake decorator, I wouldn't believe that, either.
"Unexcepted Seamen" would actually be better.
Well maybe the kid will be in the navy.
That was exceptional.
Aren't there more, I dunno... *appropriate* ways of reminding someone that they were a 'surprise'? Is that something a person is likely to forget / needs to remember?
Or perhaps Haley had been away for, you know, quite a while and the cake was ordered by phone... And the wreckerator's idea of tact was to leave the 'oops' out... Though that doesn't explain 'unexcepted' for 'unexpected'.
True tact would have been to say, "Why don't you call back in a few minutes and we'll try this again."
