After looking at these Wrecks, now *I* do.
What's this? What's this?
There's color everywhere
There's color everywhere
What's this?
There's white things in the air
What's this?
It's orange and so hairy - what's the deal with those two berries? I don't care!
What's this?
[bumpahbumpahbumpabumpabumpabBUM]
What's this? What's this?
I can't believe my eyes,
What's this?
A donkey tank surprise?
What's this? A swirly mass so curly, could the purple be too girly? Should this song be ending early? No we're going 'til we hurl-y!!

Could it be, oh could it be? Did I get my wish?
Here's something that makes sense: a meteorite bird fiiiish!
What's this?
[dumpadumpadumpadumpbaBUM]
[wheeyouwheeyouwheeyouwhee...]
What's this? What's this? There's something very wrong!
What's this? That blue thing's really long.
What's this?
It's positively crappy, and yet I feel so happy, have I possibly gone sappy? I think I need a nappy 'cuz this song is kind of rappy so I guess I'll get a frappey and go shopping at the Gappy...
WHAT.
IS.
THIS?!?
S.K., Patrick T., Chris E., Reagan B., Rebekah W., Austin L., Alex S., Kaylyn M., & Mikaela, your guess is as good as mine.
Oh, and for your continued "enjoyment" I have a special treat today: while we were writing this post, John & #1 (aka "the other Jen") kept singing it to get the cadence right. This...got really entertaining.
So, I decided to tape them.

There were a few interruptions, but overall I think you'll find their rendition...um...well...just don't have the volume up too loud, k?
"Enjoy!"
"Enjoy!"
(If you're wondering what my contribution is here, I'm the one doing the scrolling. And giggling.)
Update from john: Please note that no animals were harmed during the making of this video. :)

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 394 of 394 Newer› Newest»this post is AWESOME. and I haven't even watched the video yet (because I'm at work). I can't wait.
so, what song are you guys "wrecking" next? :) (I mean that in the nice way, I promise. you know, making it CakeWreck-y!)
I think the one with the long blue thing is a sideways fire hydrant. No clue about the rest of them but they're pretty funny!
How many of us have said "Best. Video. Ever." so far? Are you keeping count?
BEST. VIDEO. EVER.
awesome post!
and i think i can actually identify one of the oddities you posted today. i'm pretty sure that orange hairy thing with the berry eyes is supposed to be the flying spaghetti monster.
Is John British? Is that a dumb question? The "dog died" joke reminds me of a different phone joke:
person #1: Hello. Really? You don't say? Is that right? You don't say? You don't say! Well, Goodbye.
person #2: Who was that?
person #1: He didn't say.
Wow. Thanks to the first one, the world now knows what Rainbow Brite's poop looks like. Yikes!
PriceLESS!! I love Nightmare Before Christmas and you all did a GREAT job with that song. Now I need to go listen to the CD.
Seriously my cheeks hurt from the laughter. Thanks!
Definitely laughed out loud a few times while reading this at work :-x oops. Lol still laughing! Love.
Haha! That first cake deserves some major credit! I didnt think unicorn poo could be found!!
So how did they get the purple on the swirls in the "donkey tank surprise"? They are so well integrated, it's hard to believe they switched out the tip--so did they apply that after???
LOVED the video!!
audio was the best!!! that should be standard for all posts. Or at least once in a while when the mood strikes.
wow that video is DEFINITELY worth watching. AMAZING.
"Please note that no animals were harmed during the making of this video."
Yea...no animals were harmed but I'm sure you hurt the meteorite bird fish's feelings...
LMAO!!! That was fantastic!!!
first cake looks like this http://images.neopets.com/items/dung_rainbow.gif
Hello. Long time reader; first time commenter.
Best. Post. Ever.
Silly rabbit, that first one is a unicorn poop! Everybody KNOWS they poop rainbows. ;-D
I love it!
I'm going out on a limb and say that the one with the long blue thing KINDA looks like (if you turn it sideways) a fire hydrant... kinda... but not really. Awesome as ever!
You guys are awesome - love the phone call! But now I've got the song stuck in my head too!! :-)
Did they hate the dog? That was the happiest "my dog died" conversation ever.
I think the first one is Unicorn poo, which is kinda cool, because I always wondered what unicorn poo would look like.
The 1st is clear as day Unicorn Poop.
I thought singing along in my head made this funny (I went back a few times because the cadence wasn't right too!), but watching the video version put the voices in my head to shame! HILARIOUS. This is the hands down the best part of my day!
That video was SO FUNNY! I wish I could say more about it, but that's it. SUCCESS with the LOLs today People!
Okay, yeah yeah, hilarious post. But WTF are these?! Cake #4 is driving me crazy with it's yellow and brown deliberately piped indecipherables. I assume the swirly one just had some poorly mixed in food coloring or something.
And Sean's cake? Really? That HAD to be a deliberate wreck. Who puts a votive in a cake?! And then there's some perfectly cute little carrot cupcake behind it. Until you notice the baby carrots next to it. Is there some diabolical cake wrecker out there putting votives on "frogs" and carrots on cupcakes?!
I love how #1's gets a phone call during it - TWICE. *giggles*
wv - expenyz: The wreckerators clearly spared no expenyz while making those cakes.
Her dog died? And they were laughing about it? Huh?
Bwaaahahahaa! Awesomeness. Loved this post but what made me giggle most was #1's phone call! All that excitement and disbelief, then "Her dog died". Crazy!!
I lost it at "meteorite bird-fiiiish." Too funny! :D
I think this is my favorite posting of all time!!
Hahaha, you guys aren't bad singers, but I had to laugh when she said. "Oh, I'm at Jen and John's, we were doing something, but it's dumb, go on."
Ahh the glorious rainbow poop, delivered by the rare blue unicorn especially for you on your cake, on your birthday!
I LOVE the video! More More More!
I was making a list of what the cakes were, but the entry was so long I gave up. But the first one looks like a unicorn came by and did its business on what might have been an otherwise average cake. An attempt to hypnotise the birthday girl (?) and a muppet excreeting the three-eyed aliens form Toy Story. Well, you asked what they were, I did my best.
The first one: Unicorn Poop. And I think there is a fire hydrant in there somewhere. Everything else has me laughing hysterically - and so do the two I think I identified.
WV: popatid; "Mommy, dat unicawn popatid on my cake!"
One of my all-time favorite posts! You guys have GOT to do more songs! #1 & John, you have AMAZING voices! The phone calls were hilarious!
BTW, I'm a teacher and I love to pull your wrecks up and have my kiddos dissect the mistakes!
heheheheheheHE I love the beginning of the video!!
OMG! You were singing "Popular" from Wicked at the beginning!!! You get so many epic points for that it's not even funny.
I think I know the story to the first cake . A dog went to a pride parade and ate a flag and then got terrible diarrhea
I know WHAT that last one is but the WHY escapes me.
It's a gingerbread cookie with a cornucopia on top.
WHY? I have no idea...
i love the phone call in middle of the song, that was so random! the whole song was awesome too...
Oh my gosh that video was great. The phone call in the middle really made it spectacular! This is one of my new favorites of all your wreck blogs.
I'm fairly sure that the last one is the lesser-known Australian bright-pilled plaity-poo.
MC from NZ
This is the best blog entry ever! I about fell out of my chair in laughter, wow!
You guys have totally outdone yourselves... cakewrecks, witty commentary AND an absolutely hysterical musical video to boot?
Don't peak too soon.
LOVE LOVE LOVE CW.
Good stuff!!
Thanks again for another daily giggle! With the work world rather unsettled, at least I have one place to turn for relief!
A million thanks
Addie
The first cake looks like unicorn poo.
Long time reader of this wonderful blog which makes me laugh every day. But TODAY. It was funny enough with the particular, er, "food" shown (really? cakes?) but the video was priceless. I will never stop laughing.
I love you guys!
Jen, this post was marvelous! :-D
You have such a great team of people working with you!

The first one is actually when Teletubbies mark their territory...see Wreck post previohttp://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/2008/07/when-teletubbies-need-more-fiber.html to show "rainbow poo"....
"I'll teach you the proper poise when you talk to boys-!" Ooooooh goodness. You guys are awesome. I think the first cake looks like the cover of Oh, The Places You'll Go. Or like the swirl of water at the bottom of some magical toilet. Like some unicorn's toilet. Yeeeeeaaaah...
Well done all!
WTF are they smoking?!
This is my most favorite CakeWrecks post ever. EVAR. That video had me in tears.
lol..." her dog died..' " Oh". (pause) ...what this! etc..
lol oh the show must go on....
You guys are AWESOME!!!!! In another life... I want to be you. :)
That lady singing had a voice just like the voice of 'wife of nalts' on youtube! Nice voice!!
I loved this. Thanks for putting that video.
"Yeah I'm doing something... ...stupid."
Hey, if the CW blog and book thing doesn't pan out for you guys, John & The Other Jen can always take their act on the road as "Cake Wrecks: The Musical".
Really great voices and superb lyrics!
This is the first time, in the year that I have been following Cake Wrecks, that I have felt compelled to leave a comment. All I have to say is:
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA *gasp* HAHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA *gasp*
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! *pees pants a little*
P.S. Those "interruptions" had to have been set up; They were just TOO perfect.
Wow, this sums up beautifully what I love about CakeWrecks...
fluent, witty and delicious mockery!
You guys are stars; the cakes are just a conduit for your mad skillz :)
Thank you for not editing out the interruptions; they added a touch of humor to an already entertaining performance!
I dont know what exactly #1 is... but im thinking a dog got into a box of crayons...
Best. CakeWrecks. Post. EVER! My fiance and I were laughing and singing as we read it. And right after, he reminded me to feed my meteorite-bird-fish (well, actually, they're just guppies) but it lead me to have a laughing asthma attack for the last 5 minutes. Can I invoice you for that?
This is one of my favorite posts ever. Also,
HAVE YOU SEEN THIS HAVE YOU SEEN THIS HAVE YOU SEEN THIS?!!! Sunday Sweets material:
http://weburbanist.com/2010/08/03/cake-art-over-25-awesomely-decorated-cakes/
LOL! This is so hilarious that i have to leave my comments too! LOL! Too funny! I had to control my laughter in the office while i was watching the video!! Great rhyming! Now i have that song stuck in my head too!!
...and maybe some wrecky material too...
Is that 5th one supposed to be a cake version of a Magic Eye picture? Maybe if you squint enough something will make sense...
Amazing! I seriously can't identify even a single one of these things that are being represented in cake form.
Can... Can I give you all hugs?
LOVE the video at the end-- #1 has a good voice, and love her dry wit. I definitely agree that this should be an occasional feature. The comment "once more with sprinkles" for your singing segments is a great title!
As for the cakes... yup, agree that the first one looks like what happens after unicorns get into the skittles.
Is something wrong with me that I think the orange hairy cake is kinda cute? Maybe I liked Monsters Inc a bit much :) The meteorite bird fish is kinda cute too!
The purple and teal cake-- somebody went to a lot of effort with that one! Very carefully done swirls... inexplicable design. Deer with antlers???? in purple and teal???
I felt sorry for Carrie until I saw poor Sean's cake. Wow, that's wreckiness at a whole new level of bad. I think that wreckerate needs to be sent to "rehad" (my WV)
Number one is Number Two. From clowns. I'm just sayin'...
Uh....nice singing. Keep your day job,'k?
...
btw, what IS your day job?
This was the best post ever! I laughed hysterically. I love you guys. It feels like we are friends with the same nutty humor. Keep it up. You make my day brighter..
PS> you need to make more videos!
The first one made me think "taste the rainbow"...it's Skittles poo!!!
My Husband and I love this site! I showed "What's this? What's this?
There's color everywhere" and he said "it's care bear poop"!
Thanks for the laugh!
oh. my. god. *laughs*
well, normally I'm against drug testing in bakeries, but these cakes...WTF? love the video, you guys don't need drugs either.
This is the greatest thing ever. In fact, it's SO great, it brought me out of lurking. I've watched this five times today when I should be working on my novel, and let me tell you, it's not helping the atmosphere! xD This better go viral, EVERYONE needs to see this! My favorite parts are the heavy sighs every time the phone rings.
Oh, and my word verification is stienced, as in, "All critics were stienced when they heard Number 1 and John's amazing singing!"
I love your page, but this has made my night! Thank you so much for uploading it! I absolutely loved it!
OK too many comments to sift through to see if someone else has already said it, but the orange spiky cupcakey-thing looks like the "hunger" character from the weight watchers commercials. Was someone trying to be ironic??
we all saw a deformed dalek in the thing with the rather too long blue thing...
the spell check hates the word Dalek.
what does it know?
The best part of the video was the one sided phone conversation. Now I want to know what they were talking about.
To fully appreciate Donkey Tank Surprise you must move a few steps away from your computer screen and squint really hard until everything becomes blurry and the true image jumps out. Try it now, then send to 50 of your closest friends and your wish will come true. If you don't, you will have bad luck for 25 to 35 years (the life span of a donkey). Good luck!
I normally get a good daily chuckle out of cakewrecks, but today gave me tears of joy. Excellent work on the song!
I LOVED The song. Especially with iPhone interruptions. Sorry her dog died. Boo.
Creig
great song
Lol!!! I love the song. As for that first cake.. maybe a giant rainbow german shepherd pooped on that cake.. for that is what that looks like to me. The last pic is a gingerbread man that has been murdered by an evil poo frosting wielding wreckerator. Guess they just don't love gingerbread men :( lol.
What is this????
First cake:
What is this?
It's a rainbow?
A rainbow around a cake?
OMG OMG
It's so vivid.
What does it mean?
(sobs)
Sean's cake:
It looks like a Grade 2 papier mache project.
Love the video, but what was the phone convo really about?
I love this post :) The video just made it so much better. And I love how in the video #1 takes the phone call, gets off and says "her dog died" then John lets out a very quiet sigh then the song continues as if there weren't an interruption....she even sounds just has happy and cheery as before lol.
That writing was stupendous!
Also the singing was not too shabby and John's "narrator voice" was perfect.
That was the best post ever! I have loved this site for years and you always make me laugh but who knew you had the rhyming skills!
I love the Nightmare Before Christmas and this post made me burst out laughing! The cadence is indeed spectacular and I especially enjoyed the video rendition. Thanks, guys!
That was awesome! Thank you for the laugh! I was quite impressed by your singing ability, btw.
I wonder what Rainbow Guy would say about #1. I say 'Technicolor poo.'
#4 I wonder if this wreck mysteriously caught fire shortly after Carrie saw it.
#6 Why do the isolated cupcakes have so many eyes? And leaves? What is the central object -- a firebird? It's rainbow-hued, too! What does it all mean?!
#7 I too was thinking scented candle. Or a votive candle to be lit as a prayer for peace, following what looks to have been the mother of all food fights. Used cake, anyone?
I first thought #8 was a carrot with a blue ribbon attached (some sort of county fair monstrosity, perhaps), but then I saw the (conical) hydrant. We've all seen how water drips from a hydrant; first it goes straight out to the side, then it kind of slopes down from there. The sheer realism of CCC's (heave) never commences to amaze me.
#9 is a minimalist homage to #1. The wreckist cleverly deconstructs the 'rainbow' and 'poo' elements for a SCAThing commentary on the futility of...trying to make sense of these wrecks.
"Her dog died"
*breaks out into song*
hahaha
Oh my! I loved the song... you guys cracked me up!
I think I know what the last one is...it's a gingerbread person with a twisted colon and in order to cheer themselves up, decided to put on makeup in a most abstract manner....so then I guess it's a gingerbread woman..........although that may not necessarily be the case.....
That's the best song ever! I particularly enjoyed the telephone intermission.
Hee! I loved the insight into the creative process.
The video! It's...it's....fantastic! I...can't....stop....laughing!!
More cake wreck video's please!!
Classic. I vote more videos. #1 really does have a pretty voice, and John's is pretty too, but in a macho manly sort of way.
This was hilarious. Co-workers think I'm crazy for cracking up so early in the morning.
i thuroughly enjoyed the musical narration of the post! i would love to see it more often!
oh my gosh, that video was hilarious, ESPECIALLY the interruption with the phone call!!! HILARIOUS! loved it and i'm going to share it with my friends on facebook :)
BEST. POST. EVER.
-Jessica
Starting off with Wicked then into Nightmare Before Christmas. XD
XD Now I'm gonna have What's This stuck in my head. >.<
The first "wreck" is Unicorn Poop from the game Deathspank. See the picture below or google Deathspank unicorn poop. Turns out the first one is not a cake wreck but a piece of art (or poop) depending on what you think of it.
http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/07/500x_unipoop.jpg
Maybe as a gift to your fans, can you guys do a "Sing-along-blog" like Dr. Horrible?
How 'bout a Cake Wrecks Christmas special where you sing about yule logs & Turdaphants.
Thanks for the video! You two are pretty darn good at singin'!
I think the last one is supposed to be a cornucopia on a gingerbread man, but it looks like gingerbread roadkill, tire tread and everything.
In your video, why is she laughing that the dog died?
First picture looks like a unicorn pooed on the cake
That was great, even before I heard the recording! Not that there was anything wrong with the recording...I just didn't need it because I could already hear the song in my head! But it was great!
#8 is a fire hydrant, but the picture is taken horizontally instead of vertically. The blue stuff is supposed to be water, I'm guessing. Although it's trickling out, I wouldn't want to be on fire near that hydrant! I'll be watching the video at home so I don't burst out in laughter at work. I can't wait!
The video was amazing. It made an already incredible post that much better. I laughed so hard!
That was sort of a strange reaction to someone's dog dying... I guess nobody liked the dog then?
You definitely need more musical posts! Cell phone interruptions and all.
Also, i think I'm partial to the meteorite bird fish.
My 6 year old says the rocket looking thing with the long blue thing is a rocket being carried by a blue ant. (She also says that we should make a video with her singing about crazy cakes, but she doesn't want anyone to call her while she's singing).
My 2 year old was uninterested though. He just kept pointing at the carrot jockeys and saying "poor babies! babies sad!" Apparently his analysis is that the carrot jockeys are sad because they wanted to ride on boats but had to ride carrots instead. LOL
I actually liked the orange "hairy" cake. It didn't look like a wreck to me. Of course, I've no idea what it's supposed to represent, but it looks good :)
Loved the singing... and the phone call interrupting the singing... Heeeee-larious!
I laughed harder at the ending of the first phone call.
"Her dog just died." OtherJen
"Oh." John
And they go back to singing. What!?
Gods I am morbid, or apathetic or something.
by far my favorite post ever! (to go with one of my favorite movies ever) The video was excellent! lol
Holy crap that was funny you guys! XD
Number Five is a close up of James "Sully" Sullivan of Monsters, Inc.
It's from the infamous internet kitten that poops rainbows.
Hahaha, great post
The first one is unicorn poo from the game DeathSpank! its hilarious. -Rebecca
OK, the post was hilarious, but the video was...well, the icing on the cake. LOL #1 has a nice tone to her voice, and John is pretty good, too. I laughed at the phone call coming in the middle of the song, and #1's comment, "Well, we're doing a thing, but it's dumb." Then the incredulous exclamations, followed by, "Her dog died." And then it was business as usual, which made me laugh the hardest. Can I get that song on my iPod?
I'm definitely not the first person to mention this, but BRAVO! to John singing Popular. That just made my day almost as much as the rest of the video. Also, "her dog died" *singing commences. Soooo terrible...terribly funny! And finally Jen's "can we wrap this up guys?" *phone rings* "Hello?"
bahahahha why would anyone create something so horrific for their customers!!
Wow! You guys have a great singing voice. That was pretty amazing. I'm really surprise. You guys can write and sing. Thought about writing a musical about cake wrecks? Keep up the good work. I look forward to your posts everyday.
OMG that was the best post ever, I loved the singing (and the interruptions)!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i may have pee'd my pants a little....
And you're really saying you didn't script those interruptions? Your comic timing borders on the miraculous.
Also, I'll bet #1 could sing really well if she wanted, and John doesn't embarrass himself either.
Also, I think I just died laughing.
The cake in the last photo looks like it has dog turds on it
We laughed until we cried!
BWHAHHAHAHAhahhahahhHAHAHHAHAHA!
Were the phone interruptions planned? Because that was just too perfect. XD
I agree, Nightmare Before Christmas + Cake Wrecks is truly the best. You are all amazing and brilliant and hysterical and a bit disturbing, and simply genius!
Video is a wonderful idea and I hope you will find excuses to include it in future posts.
(PS David Attenburough? not Patrick Stewart? OK I am a sad loser)
Can I invoice you for those?
i would have number five! totally!
*tilts head*
well then again maybe if that purple spot made sense
*squints*
and if i didn't look so much like the blue guy on monsters inc. , maybe if the icing was smooth and oh if it was....
Hilarious!!!!
Hahahahaha! The video was great! How many rehearsals did it take before you got it down? Would have loved to hear those, too . . . and maybe a blooper reel!
That was frickin hilarious! You guys are a riot!
WAS JOHN SINGING POPULAR?? XDDD AWESOME
Ok that was Hilarious! you guys are awesome!
Popular... I want to be POP-U-LAR! XD
i normally just look and don't comment, but i was smiling so much when i read the captions beneath the pictures because in my head it was to the song.
thanks for the laughs!!!
Amazing lyrics!
Either "the dog died" is a common sarcastic interjection in the Jen & John household, or that's a group with superb comedic coordination. There was barely time to draw breath between that bizarrely incongruous summary of the telephone call and the next verse.
Can't you PLEASE tell us what really happened?
Walter Bean: I want an FSM cake!
The first one is perfect for clown week, as that technicolor poo could have only been deposited by a clown...
I can see the creativity in the comet bird/fish, though it is odd. But the extra cupcakes with the leaves and the little eyes are really weird! What are those supposed to be? And WHY!!!!
For the first one, considering the rainbow colouring and the swirl, isn't it a pile of unicorn poo?
I love them. The look fun, cheerful,n personal and made with love. Something a lot of those posh pretty cakes don't have.
If it were my birthday I'd love one of these over one of those bakery ones. At least somebody cared more about me than just to buy me stuff
WHERE IS THE VIDEO
I was thinking the first one might be what happens when you follow the skittles commercial and actually taste the rainbow.
Was the video removed? I don't see any video in the post.
darn! sound didn't work on my computer.
Loved the video! I really do have to stop reading the comments, though- the amount of people who just don't get it makes me way too depressed.
Fantastic post! Impressive singing voices and irony all rolled into a Cake blog. Oh happy days... I can't believe you didn't crack up after the phone call (or was it edited out?). Just fantastic!
Physicsmom
I think this has to be my favorite CW post ever. I'm going to be singing "donkey tank surprise" all day. Love it...all of it.
And I almost cry laughed when she got off the phone.
And your voices....like the wingbeats of angels wafting joy down to us in envelopes of warm melted butter.
On the last picture...My son: It's a gingerbread man! My daughter: With muscles??
I think the orange one is the weight watchers hungry monster
http://www.starling-fitness.com/archives/2009/05/03/weight-watchers-hungry-monster/
http://www.hotheadgames.com/blog/?paged=4
First one is unicorn poop cake from hothead game's deathspank.
http://www.unicornpoop.com
I think the orange furry one is the weight-watchers "hungry" thing.
That first one looks like someone's fed food dye to their dog.
Number 3 is the flying spaghetti monster... I think.
I think when Jen says "her dog died" I have never been more surprised. Brilliant!
Hate to be picky, but ya already showed #2 in post "I'll have what they're having"
Apart from that, awesome post!!!!
God, this blog is TOO FUNNY!!!
OMG, I just realised, on the picture whoever made it splet "too" wrong!! Ah well, cake-wrecks tribute.
My daughter and I were just looking at these, and the mangled duck looking thing made her respond like such, "I love chipmunks mommy!!!...they are so cute!!!..." I have been laughing so hard ever since.
This just made my day =^.^=
#7 reminds me rather of a somewhat deformed and mysteriously red Dalek.
I must say I did the sing-a-long! It was an awesome song! :D I had to sing loud enough for my 3 year to help out! haha
I wonder- does anyone here have ANY guesses for that last one?
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for restoring my faith in the human race. So happy now I might even pay attention to my children.
Oh my gosh, that first cake had me cracking up!
Best Post Ever. =D
I must say....poor, poor Sean. What in god's name did he do to deserve that cake???? Does anyone know what it's supposed to be?
And Carrie...poor, girl. Poop cake with a swirl.
wv "rumpra" --quite appropriate for today's wrecks...or should I say "pooh-wrecks"
I can always count on yall to make my eyes fill with tears of laughter every single day. LOVE IT
I sincerely appreciate that John started, ala Kristen Chenowith, with the song "Popular" from "Wicked".
Classic post today. Classic.
first and last picture: 'crapping a rainbow'
cracked up at the video!! i think it was especially awesome because john was singing popular at the beginning
Hilarious video! Is it just me, or is the phone call taken from a scene in Devil Wears Prada? And "#1"'s singing voice sounds suspiciously like Ann Hathaway...hmmm
the first one is unicorn poop : )
Amazing. I didnt think I could laugh any harder, until the song. My abdomen hurts.
:) the first one is unicornpoop.com. No I am not joking.
I love the really small gap between saying "her dog died" then launching straight back into the crazy song, hilarious timing!
england.
You are HILARIOUS!!!!! Great video! Thanks for the laughs ;)
-Jane Reyes
Haha!!
I loved the little Wicked intro to the video... It made me think that you all get to hang out singing songs from musicals, looking at hilariously terrible cakes, and making up silly songs.
I tip my hat to the three of you!
and now the song is stuck in my head.. something like the orange thing was trying to escape a tupperware container in my fridge last time i peered in there...
oh my dear lord! That video was GREAT! I keep thinking that first picture looks like raindow unicorn poop...... lmao I LOVE THIS BLOG!
Rebecca; Seattle WA
The first cake looks like the unicorn poo you need to collect in a video game called DeathSpank! its hilarious.
I know have that song stuck in my head, so well done :p
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeathSpank
The orange one with the "tentacles" is the Flying Spaghetti Monster... Google it :D
Pic number one: "can YOU poop rainbows? I didn't think so!"
