Food, Accident and Awkward: The cupcake incident

The cupcake incident

By kandi - 04/05/2009 07:34 - Philippines

Today, while at the bakeshop, I got bored waiting in line so I rested on the glass protecting the cupcakes. Turns out there was no glass. I had to pay $50 to cover all the mess and had to walk out of the bakeshop with icing all over my butt. FML

Today, I went to get myself a latte to make myself feel better after having a bad day. As soon as I sat down to enjoy it, I spilled it all over myself, another customer, and the floor. FML

Today, my coworker spilled sticky fruit glaze all over my cake display cake and left it overnight uncleaned. The same display case I spent 2 hours cleaning the day before. FML

Today, I spent $70 on party supplies for my sister's bachelorette party, another hour decorating, three hours baking and designing a cake, before waiting five hours to hear that she and another bridesmaid had 'moved' the party elsewhere. Cake anyone? FML

Today, while working at the coffee shop, I had to empty the garbage cans. One of the bags gave way, and all the half-finished cups of coffee spilled all over my uniform. Most customers' orders cost more than I make per hour. FML

Today, while serving a line of ten customers by myself at the coffee shop I work at, I knocked over a cup of steaming hot milk and it went all over the coffee bar, espresso machine, floor, and myself. I then had to act like everything was fine and make a line of drinks with milk everywhere. FML

Today, I brought a cupcake to school for my friend's birthday. After taking one bite, she exclaimed that it was the worst thing she had ever tasted and that we should sue the store that I bought it from. I baked it myself. FML

Today, I was baking cookies. When I took the tray out of the oven I closed the door, but it bounced back open and hit me in the back of the knees. That caused me to sit down on the hot oven door. I was just wearing my short bathrobe and no underwear. I really burned my ass and um...stuff. FML

Today, I was at a pie auction. During it, I had to hold a pie in a glass case to be sold. In the middle of the auction, I raised my hand to scratch my face, and dropped the pie and broke the glass. It was worth $1000. FML

Today, I went to Starbucks to get my free birthday coffee and due to a mistake I received two. Thinking it was my lucky day, I hurried off to work. As I was walking in, I tripped and spilt one coffee all over my new dress. Then I walked into a door and spilt the other. FML

Today, I celebrated my birthday with a few friends at home. As I bent down over my cake, my friend pushed my face into it. The baker should've told me she put a stick in it to support the cake. FML

why would you sit on a glass case protecting cupcakes? what if someone wants to look at the cupcakes? what if the glass breaks? you should have sucked it up... but maybe i just overthink the consequences of my actions too much i donno. anyway its kind of silly.. i wonder what it feels like to squish a bunch of cupcakes with my bottom?

lmao! YDI... but I have to say, what kind of shop just leaves cupcakes on display in the open air like that?

i see a darwin award in your future Why the **** would you even consider sitting on the glass display anyways? I am honestly worried at how prevalent stupidity has become these days. Very scary.

Seriously, even if there WAS glass there, those displays are not meant to hold a grown person's weight! Why would you ever do that?!

I don't think i need to say this out loud but... you deserved that!! Honestly man, even if there was a glass case you would have probably shattered it and it would have been even worse, so I think its fair to say, you were lucky all you got was icing all over your ass, and only a $50 fine.

I hate people who touch/lean/sit on glass. Seriously, someone's got to wipe your dirty prints off. YDI, for sure. D:

Why the hell would you even think it's okay to sit on a glass case to begin with? Glass isn't made to support your cupcake-eating ass and would break, and even if by some miracle it didn't, no one wants to come after you and look at cupcakes through glass with pant smear marks on it. I try to say nice things to a lot of these FMLs, but seriously WTF was going through your head? You actually got the best case scenario here where all you did was ruin the cakes. You should be thankful that's as much damage as you caused.
