ManOfTheHour Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 https://mothership.sg/2020/07/albert-cake-collect-singapore/ S'pore man orders cake online for 1st time, says Albert will collect it from store. Gets cake with exact message. Online bookings have seen a sharp increase as of late. The ease of ordering, however, can sometimes be offset by the inability to perfectly articulate what you might want. Take first time online cake buyer Windez Tay. He ordered a Lychee Martini Cake from The Pine Garden. Image from Windez Tay As stated above, Tay wrote that someone named Albert would collect the cake, perhaps to ease any identifying issues that might arise in the store. Tay finalised the order. Speaking to Mothership, Tay describes his first reaction when he saw the cake. "We discovered it at the shop upon self-collection. The shop was quite busy and making any changes at that point seemed like it might spark a scene and delay our dinner plans." And on his part, Tay himself acknowledged that he realised did not leave a "happy birthday" message to be placed on the cake, so was expecting a blank lychee martini cake, that was, as we now know, not what he got. While Tay wasn't that chuffed with having his brother's birthday cake being a tribute to Albert's collection, it was his brother who best appreciated the messaging. "We were initially bewildered, though to be honest, it was my brother who first found it amusing. It took quite an effort for me to personally see the humour in the situation." But there was no denying the absurdity of the situation, as Tay pointed out in his Facebook post. "We haven't laughed this hard in ages. What a celebration." 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cynical Ape Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Top LULZ! Good content = Topics that genuinely encourages and stimulates interaction/banter. Bad content = Clickbaits, brag posts and social media news feed that nobody gives a flying fuck about + waste of server storage space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
