Also, is it just me or is this quite the wank writeup?
Rainbow cake recipe inspires comment apocalypse

Kaylee Bakes has an amazing offer, just for you! For the low, low price of $10, you can have one inexpertly frosted Halloween cake pop. Estimated delivery: November 2013! BUT WAIT! Order now, and you can have CHRISTMAS CAKE POPS TOO!! (Just don't ask for more than one, or you'll be getting them next year.)

Kickfailure is understandably amused.

But hark! What light through yonder Kaylee Bakes? It is the feast! And Kaylee Bakes is the sun!

"This better be removed. I have your address ANDY."

"You all can stop hating because I am a certified chef. Also, I’m not selling I’m advertising. And I’ve been running my business for over a year making hundreds of dollars so you can stop talking about someone you don’t know."

Also, it's pointed out that she needs a license to sell food products outside of her state and a Health Department-certified kitchen to bake them in. BUT KAYLEE BAKES HAS A PLAN!

"I’m not SELLING, I’m SENDING complimentary cake pops to those who funded me. SO THERE."

Sounds legit.

NOTE: This should go without saying, but it doesn't, so: this is not intended to disparage anyone's spiritual practice. My own is so eccentric that I am hardly in any position to denigrate anyone else's! This is about the wanky squabble amongst certain Heathens who took it upon themselves to offer unsolicited advice to other Heathens about the One True Way [TM] to worship the Norse god Loki.

So on September 4th, a Lokean - a Pagan who reveres the Norse god Loki, not a Tom Hiddleston groupie - called w00lopt posted a photo of a dessert to zir tumblr with the caption:

Afternoon offering to Loki. Sponge cake, fresh strawberries and whipped cream.

necroticdoom, who has unsurprisingly deleted or renamed zir tumblr since this, replied:

um……what? Strawberry shortcake as an offering? to Loki??? WHAT? needless to say that is absolutely ridiculous in a myriad of ways. *bangs head*

Response was swift.

Here's a collection of rather small but holiday appropriate wank. Enjoy.

It all starts over on cooking where ronin001 has some Jambalaya RAGE over some Jambalaya made with potatoes and radishes. In itself, it is pretty lulzy, but then it gets posted on domestic_snark where tingilya shows up to tell everyone about Mardi Gras and how only New Orleans can/knows how to celebrate it.

Then we make the leap to Cake Wrecks where the traditional Mardi Gras staple, King Cake, has been targeted and rage flies faster than beer soaked bead finds its way to exposed breasts.

Fun times on Fat Tuesday. \o/

Hey! It was Earth day not too long ago! Yay! In celebration of Earth Day, Jen over at Cake Wrecks decides to post about Earth Day related cakes gone horribly wrong.

Jen includes a cake intended to be Spaceship Earth (ETA: that she made, by the way) and makes a joke about it. Fortunately Jen's readership is ready and willing to let her know that the cake is actually Epcot, about 200 times. The comments are wanky, hilarious, and generous amounts of ass kissing towards the end.

This does not bode well with Jen's inner Disney child, and she amends her post with the following:

" To the scores of you telling me this is supposed to be Disney's Epcot Center: Um, yeah, I know. See, the ball at Epcot is called Spaceship Earth, NOT Epcot. Give a Diz Geek a little credit, eh?"

Unfortunately her inner Disney child is still smarting as the next post is provided by her husband, his explanation being...

"Hey everybody. This is john (the hubby of Jen) taking on today's post since Jen is...um...busy. Yeah. So how 'bout that post yesterday, huh? It's like one minute everything's all hunky-dory, and then next thing I know Jen's threatening to strike over something to do with a Disney font. Last I saw, she was on the couch in her memory foam slippers with a pint of Chunky Monkey and watching SGA reruns. I believe her exact words to me were, "YOU write it!!!" And I see the facial tic is back. Greeeaaat."

This, of course, starts a game of finger pointing.

And cake was had by all!

ETA 2: If two posts of butthurt wasn't enough for you, Jen also likes to tweet about it!

ETA 3: As pointed out by willywanka, apparently Blogger is responsible for bahleeted comments on Cake Wrecks.

franticallysimple puts it best, "Does this mysterious comment deletion have anything to do with the Epcot Center, now owned by Disney?"
