Since our birthdays only come once a year (and they signify that we've made it through another year of life!), we tend to want them to feel special. No bad vibes.
Well, it seems like these people got a lot less than they probably wanted for their birthdays. In fact, they're probably more disappointed in their special days than anything else.
Man, this poor person went out of their way to try and celebrate their birthday at work, and no one took a piece of cake. How mean...
On the plus side, they can probably exchange it. Too bad it didn't show up in one piece, though.
Man, having a random electrical fire start on your birthday definitely isn't the way you want to celebrate. Especially if someone was planning on using that oven to make you a cake.
I think the worst thing is when you put so much effort into something and it just... falls on the floor. At least mom will probably appreciate the effort.
I always find the first waffle you make out of the batch is gonna be disappointing. Just scrape it off and try again (maybe with a little more oil).
I'm not gonna lie, it took me a second to find the crack (it's in the middle). But yeah, at least it can be exchanged for a new one.
I was about to ask if there were a lot of babies born in 2019, but I'm betting these candles got snatched up by a bunch of 30-year-olds.
Even if you love any kind of cake (like me), you'd be really disappointed. You're expecting one thing, only to get something completely different.
It might not be this person's home's birthday, but it looks like it was somebody's at one point. I really hope they aren't missing those balloons for the party or anything...
Dropping a birthday cake is actually one of my greatest fears. Best case scenario, you can scrape the part that touched the ground off. But who would want to eat it then?
The way the USPS sticker says "we care" is probably the most ironic thing in this entire list. Also, why does it look like someone's dog got to the card?
On the plus side, this mass of dirt looks like it's ready to stick right into a garden.
For real, though, I'd be asking for my money back.
Raise your hands if you had to have a pandemic birthday during a stay-at-home order. Yeah, they definitely weren't that fun. But hey, at least this person got cake.
Leave it to one unruly person to ruin it for everyone else. And of course, on someone's birthday.
I swear, it's like delivery people don't care enough about other people's stuff to treat it with any, well, care. But at least it can be exchanged or returned.
According to OP, the birthday boy asked someone from the next table to take their picture and she said yes: "As she was leaning back her hair got caught in the candle on the table and I started to see smoke rising above her head. That's when the reaction occurred."
Yikes.
What a hilarious oversight for an otherwise really cute birthday cake. At least everyone had a sense of humor about it.
There's... a lot to unpack with that story. But I almost feel like we shouldn't ask questions.
No, that isn't a smudge on your screen. It's a balloon that floated very, very far away. Here's hoping the store had more dinosaur balloons.
It might take you a second, but they technically aren't wrong (that does, in fact, equal 39). At least you can give OP points for creativity.
