Under Neat that

This is too funny, I had to share. Just a little smile for your Friday. Here is a going away cake. I had to stare at the cake for some thirty seconds and still couldn't quite figure out what was going on:

Here's the explanation from the poster to clarify things:

This is how I imagine the conversation went:
Walmart Employee: "Hello 'dis Walmarts, how can I help you?"
Customer: " I would like to order a cake for a going away party this week."
Walmart Employee: "What you want on da cake?"
Customer: "'Best Wishes Suzanne' and underneath that 'We will miss you'."
TGIF (Today's post coming at you from The Rosetta Stone's very comfortable leather sofas)

After see that the cake you have a pic of was from grammar girl, I thought I would suggest another word lovers podcast in case you have yet to find it:

It's takes one word a day and spends 5 min on its etymology. Don't you hate getting feedback that just plugs other sites? Well, here is another plug, inspired by you blog over at the vindy: http://www.theskepticsguide.org/
Its a good hour or more a week on current issues with an interview tossed in. Anyway, good luck with the vindy blog, one thing this area needs more than anything is a good healthy dose of unbiased reason.

I really failed at suffixes in that previous post. I can't seem to find an edit button. Damn.
