HOLY COW. That is about 800 kinds of creepy. As if the amputated hand isn't bad enough, they had to make it all broken finger-wiggly? Creepy. I think I need another shower today.
That hand looks like a rubber glove filled with frosting or something, and then run over with a pizza cutter. Or possbily stuck in a garbage disposal. Yummy!
Hey. They spelled everything right! The design is carried out reasonably well, too. It's just deeply disturbing. But they spelled everything right! And the punctuation is unambiguous! It would be a win, but for the utter creepiness.
The phrase "tickle tickle" makes this cake less "decapitated hand" and more "creepy memories"....and what kind of 30 year old wants a creepy hand cake???
I fear this sounds vulgar, but can it be more vulgar than that cake?
Is there somewhere that prostate examinations are compulsory at the age of 30? That was the implication that came to my mind. Otherwise there ought to be one heck of a personal inside joke to go along with it.
I definitely need a monitor with an 'unsee' button that would reverse the flow of information from computer to visual cortex. Then I could drop the computer into an active volcano and call it a day.
It is definitely past Halloween (I double-checked), so What The Luck?
It is a glove -- the fingers were squished in (eww) to make it fit on the cake. I was definitely wondering about the proportions until that clicked.
Surely, any wreckerator can freehand (Har!) a hand that looks better than that hand. Ok, probably not (he said, thinking of 'Your Day Has Arrived'). Please tell me the hand was removed before serving... (And everyone within 10 miles said, "Let's give Joshua a hand!")
Then we get into the whole 'tickle tickle' thing and Joshua's 30th (not 3rd) freaking birthday... I am SO not going anyplace on that itinerary.
I wonder if that memory-erasing technology from 'Total Recall' has stopped being science fiction yet. If not, I think I'll go invent it.
Soooo, did the wreckerator just add the "hand" as a bonus? If not, I am wondering what the wreckee could possibly have said during the ordering conversation that would result in this!
Wreckee: "Can you make an Elmo cake?"
Wreckerator: "We don't have an Elmo cake."
Wreckee: "Could you just free-hand an Elmo? See, my brother is very ticklish and he laughs just like Elmo, so we nicknamed him Tickle-Me-Elmo and I thought it would be funny."
I always enjoy reading your blog. I included you in my "favorite blogs" post today. You can check out the posting at http://juliakoponick.blogspot.com/2010/11/few-favorite-blogs.html
Thanks for making me laugh on a daily basis! Even when life looks bleak, I can find a laugh here!
Reminds me of this movie that scared the wits out of my older brother in the early 1970s: The Crawling Hand (1963)! An astronaut's dismembered hand comes back to earth, possessed by an alien, and goes on a murderous rampage in a small town! Guess it didn't like the local bakery?
This is a "What the heck!?!?" kind of moment. Thinking back to middle school, when perverts said this to make you shudder in disgust. It makes me want to cry in scared digusted-ness, "Why? Why? WHY!?" *Shudder* :P -B
*shudder* UGH
ReplyDeleteOh for pity's sake! That's the first time one of these posts had made me want to hurl! I have a really strong stomach, but that is just gross!
ReplyDeleteIs that a glove?
ReplyDeleteSo. Very. Wrong.
ReplyDeleteAnd yet, so hilarious. I'm just glad it's not my cake.
No Comments at 3:53. Everyone is stunned into silence!
ReplyDeleteOh, wow, I am speechless
ReplyDeleteStaci
Is that a glove? Ewww.
ReplyDeleteHOLY COW. That is about 800 kinds of creepy. As if the amputated hand isn't bad enough, they had to make it all broken finger-wiggly? Creepy. I think I need another shower today.
ReplyDeleteThose fingers look like they were cut off and (badly) reattached with superglue!
ReplyDelete(Another Jen)
what does that even mean? Creepy thing hand coming at 'cha...
ReplyDelete*gagging*
ReplyDeleteOMiGad! I just realized that hand is a latex glove filled with person colored icing.
OMG! A dismembered hand cake? Gross!!!! The 'tickle' tickle' just adds to the macabre ghastliness of it all.
ReplyDeleteSomeone has a 'Thing' for you.
ReplyDeleteI cannot think of any reason, excuse, or situation in which this cake would be appropriate for a 30 year old man. O____O;
ReplyDeleteWV: halubet. They must've just made it for the halubet.
Do we know where that hand has been??? *tickle tickle*
ReplyDeleteOh I'm scared! Now I need therapy!
ReplyDeleteo.O oh lordy.
ReplyDeleteWhat alien did that hand come from?
ReplyDeleteThat is just so off-putting.
WV sednesse It is with great sednesse that I have to reject this cake.
That hand looks like a rubber glove filled with frosting or something, and then run over with a pizza cutter.
ReplyDeleteOr possbily stuck in a garbage disposal.
Yummy!
Oooh a two-fer!
ReplyDeleteCreepy. Reminds me of the campfire ghost stories of the severed hand of the escaped psycho from the institution looking for the rest of it's body.
wv: nuantsaf: Nuantsaf from the CLAW! Muah-ha-ha-ha-ha!
I'd still like a wall calendar please!
EEEUUUUWWWWW! Diana N
ReplyDeleteAnd the nightmares began all over again...
ReplyDeleteA severed hand makes ANY birthday cake complete, doesn't it?
ReplyDeletePoor Joshua...
OMG that's creepy
ReplyDeleteQuite simply....disturbing. ;)
ReplyDeleteI cannot stop laughing

ReplyDeleteI cannot stop laughing
ReplyDeleteThe caption had me laughing so hard. Funniest yet. So Gary Larson-esque. :D
ReplyDeleteAll I have to say is.... "WOW."
ReplyDeleteQuestion...Is that the palm of the hand or the back?
ReplyDeleteEither way...((((shudder))))
The phrase "tickle tickle" makes this cake less "decapitated hand" and more "creepy memories"....and what kind of 30 year old wants a creepy hand cake???
ReplyDeleteWeird ... that's really not a strong enough word. Creepy, disturbing, bizarre, strange ... weird. Poor Josh.
ReplyDeleteOMG!! Who crushed poor Joshua's fingers!?!?! And on his birthday!! Oh dear, Joshua will never be able to paint again!!
ReplyDelete:-)
YIKES! Run!
ReplyDeletenot on his birtholay!...Sad
ReplyDelete3 words for you:
ReplyDeletedis-tur-BING! :p
Scary! You know I was trying to figure out why the fingers were bent and folded so oddly - could that be a rubber glove filled with frosting???
ReplyDelete*blink blink*
ReplyDeleteThat is seriously terrifying. Why?!?! Why would someone order this?!
Am I seeing it wrong, or is actually a plastic glove filled and shaped?!?!
AUGH!
ReplyDeleteCreepy!
ReplyDeleteMakes me think of Road Kill.
ReplyDeleteMy question is: what is the glove filled with? I vote for pureed ham salad or salmon mousse.
ReplyDeleteHuh. Wonder if it's red velvet inside.
ReplyDeleteBecause nothing says "We love and appreciate you on your 30th birthday" like a rubber glove filled with goo on top of a cake...
ReplyDeleteI fear this sounds vulgar, but can it be more vulgar than that cake?
ReplyDeleteIs there somewhere that prostate examinations are compulsory at the age of 30? That was the implication that came to my mind. Otherwise there ought to be one heck of a personal inside joke to go along with it.

i love creativity when it comes to cakes but this one is just creepy.
ReplyDeleteWas that hand caught in a door or something?!?!
ReplyDeleteSome things are wrong all day long.
ReplyDeleteso creepy...

OH NOES! THEY KILLED THING AND MOUNTED HIM ON A CAKE!
ReplyDeleteNothing says "Happy 30th" like a disembodied hand with broken fingers.
I just blew up the image -- the presence of air pockets at the fingertips indicates the glove is still on.
ReplyDeleteNote the 'dig marks' in the white frosting -- that is some seriously grotesque attention to detail. At least I hope that's all it is...
Doesn't it just figure that this specimen would be correctly spelled and have readable writing.
We've all heard of Deep Blue (and distant offspring Deep Thought), right? This is Deep Creep. Only it Does Not Compute.
wv: afenjus.
and was the palm supposed to look a little .....well, hairy?
ReplyDeleteSoooo, did the wreckerator just add the "hand" as a bonus? If not, I am wondering what the wreckee could possibly have said during the ordering conversation that would result in this!

Wreckerator: "Oh! I have just the Thing!"
Andrea
If I saw that coming at me, I'd run screaming.
ReplyDelete*Runs away screaming then hides and is paranoid for remainder of day.*
ReplyDeleteEwww.... that is just so wrong!
ReplyDeleteWTF?? What kind of occasion called for that?
ReplyDeleteplus 7 for creativity
ReplyDeleteplus 8 for spelling & punctuation
negative trillion for making the icing gods angry

wv: (I am NOT kidding) sprat
My dinner went sprat when I hurled after realizing everyone was right - that is a glove.
(have they ever heard of latex allergies?? I don't think I considered that a food allergy before now.)
I think I need therapy after this.
ReplyDeleteJust today, my son asked me how "Thing" on the Addams Family managed to crawl up walls and do all that 'other stuff'.
Not sure I want to know. Right up there with not wanting to know how they did this.
I WAS going to have dessert tonight... guess not.
~~Di
*singing* ... creepy and they're kooky, mysterious and spooky, they're altogeher ooky ...
ReplyDeletethe Addams Family *snap*snap* (although I don't recall a Cousin Joshua)
WV: State -- no kidding. Just watching voting results *shudder* quite a few things gonna be falling to the budget ax

So. Wrong.
ReplyDeleteWV: ALZAT...as in "Alzat cake reminds me of is my creepy Uncle who used to 'accidentally' tickle me places where no uncle should"
No &%#@!
ReplyDeleteI love it when disembodied hands with possibly broken fingers tickle me. It's the highlight of my birthday!
ReplyDeleteGreat.. now they give out free hands on their cake wrecks. Would love to know where this is so I can run far from the place lol.
ReplyDeleteStill... I cannot stop laughing. It's just too much!
ReplyDeleteCould that be one of those battery-powered toy crawling hands? Wouldn't it be great to see it working?
ReplyDeleteO.M.G.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what else to say to that.
*involuntary shudder*
If it is a glove, what the hell is it filled with? Scratch that--I don't want to know.
ReplyDeletethat hand is too disgusting...Oh how I hope I'm never featured on this site!!
ReplyDeleteGood. Lord.
