And not just any Wreck, either.
A wreck [dramatic pause] to the third power.
Er, or something like that.
Last week a local news website in DC ordered a cake for their fifth anniversary. The site is named DCist, and Sommer, who sent this in, asked the bakery to just write their name across the whole cake.
Here's what they got instead:
Bringing a whole new meaning to the Fail Whale?You've got to admire the tenacity of this decorator. Even while operating under the assumption that the customer wanted something written "on a whale cake", he still went ahead and just wrote those instructions out instead. The fact that the baker actually made more work for himself (by writing the extra text) while trying to make less work for himself (by avoiding drawing or carving a whale cake) is what makes this such a gem. Ah, good stuff.
Thanks to Sommer and to DCist.com, which also posted it (under the same clever title, I might add - great minds and all that) here.
