Just My Stripe

I know I just talked about zebras last week, minions - or rather, the abject hatred wreckerators have for zebras, which prevents them from ever looking at zebras before they make zebra-striped cakes - but it turns out last week was only the tip of the icing 'berg.

Now, I know what you're thinking: "SURELY it can't be that hard for this many bakers to make simple zebra stripes."

To which I say:

And don't call me Shirley.

See, because it's looking at you? 

Eh? 

Janine here really lucked out, though she didn't know it at the time. See, she also ordered a zebra print cake, but the baker misunderstood. So instead, she got this:

Aha! So THIS is the answer, everybody: just start ordering actual ZEBRA cakes. Go, quick! Before Wreckerators catch on!

Oh, wait. Hang on...

Too late.
Sorry, Jannae. We hope you enjoyed your... sock puppet?


Thanks to Julia S., Beth M., Melissa M., Stephanie, Janine B., & Jannae for keeping this issue black-and-white.

I was going to link an actual zebra sock puppet, but it was the stuff of nightmares. (Bahaha!) So instead, how about just some cute zebra socks:

You can also choose from skunks, meer cats, sloths, or giraffes wearing glasses. Score.

P.S. Today I learned they sell birthday candles you attach to your drinks. Your boozy drinks.

 Wish Clips Birthday Candles
Now, I'm not sure who thought combining an open flame with alcohol was a good idea, but going by all the rave reviews on these things, that person is apparently a genius. So hey, if you're looking to add a festive-yet-dangerous touch to your next happy hour, BOOM. There it is.
