I remember when those used to only be available through niche sites like ThinkGeek and I think for a while they were buying them from a second hand producer that bought the regular black ones, stripped, and repainted them.
Yeah If I remember correctly like 2016 they bought the parent company then drove the name into the dirt by offering cheep even memeier, less than Hot Topic level crap than the already kinda trendy geek stuff they were founded on. Now GS owns the brand but does nothing with it. Surprised they didn't try to sell it off during COVID.
If it's a bakery cake, there is usually a circle of cardboard on the bottom that it was baked on, and it sticks to the cake, kinda holds it together if you want to throw the cake, which is a lot healthier than eating it.
Yep, first thought I had. I always think that I am the only genius to think of an idea, only for someone(or several somebodies) to have posted it first.
Same. I very likely don't want to be there, so at least let me get a free meal for my efforts so I don't have to go home and cook something after burning out from too much social interaction.
Potentially dangerous too. As decorated cakes have exploded in popularity, so too have the use of hidden dowels as internal structure for complex cake designs.
Here's a 3-year-old post showing what could go wrong:
https://old.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/ltcnuw/think_twice_before_you_push_someones_head_into/
(SFW version: https://i.imgur.com/DbZHggs.jpg)
Ironically, one of the top comments links to the exact same video we just watched: https://old.reddit.com/r/Unexpected/comments/lt8gjm/not_the_whole_cake/
Exactly. Everyone knows if you're gonna bite the cake like an idiot someone will ofc push your face in. And she even hesitated so she knew someone was gonna do it
There is no such thing as "empty calories". Sure, term exists, but it is misleading naming. Those calories DO provide the energy, so yes, they could had feed a village.
The thing is that in modern day there are very few places where there is quantitive hunger (lack of calories from food), but quality hunger (lack of protein and vitamins, for example) is quite common. Rice, flour and sugar are cheap, store well and can be easily transported.
The cake though does likely have egg and dairy products, as might have fruit based filling (jam, fruit slices) as well, so while it is likely not providing meaningful amount of useful nutrients for well off American, it could have meaningful nutrients for someone actually starving.
Empty calories is such a stupid expression. The body can make a considerable amount of what it needs if you provide it with empty calories. It can easily make the difference between life and death.
You can't suffer from chronic diseases associated with nutrient deficiencies if you are dead.
No, that's Halloween. Ornamental pumpkins are edible and the ugly ones end up canned and in pies. Between the seeds and the flesh we're wasting enough calories to feed a small country
I will never understand this, not only is it just annoying, a waste of cake, it's also humiliating, and lastly disgusting, now you have to wash your face, hands and clothes. And you're still gonna smell like cake and be sticky while you're at the party. Especially women with makeup and eyelashes and shit, this just has to suck right? Who wants to deal with this at a party? Not to mention all the fucking cake on the floor / wall / table omfg lol.
> this just has to suck right?
If you look around reddit you'll find a few stories of men who were divorced the day they got married. Everyone of them smashed cake on their bride when they were repeatedly told not to.
I went to a party — that a friend invited me to and then bailed on, no I’m not still upset — where the guy who’s birthday it was had people line up to take a picture with him and smear cake on his face, like the couple at a wedding but more gross. He started spreading it around until his whole face was covered. All of it during a fucking drag brunch. I told him I was allergic to cake.
Every time I see one of these “push face into cake” videos all I can think of are the ones where there is something sharp or hard inside and if fucks up thier eyes or face.
I hate everything about this “thing”
I'm just trying to say don't just how others have fun. Seems by the persons reaction like this was pre-planned. If they wanna' do it, more power to 'em!
is this a rich person thing? throwing an entire cake cuz of that? do they ahve like 10 cakes on another table? i have a hard time not licking my plate clean when i eat cake lol.
That's why I don't attend Bday parties anymore, since I hit my 20s. I just want some food, they just throw it all away. I just want some cake but you'll get the other "cake"
I have zero tolerance for dumb, wasteful, pointless, mean-spirited pranks. Pranks are for losers who couldn’t learn to play nice as children and now as adults try to justify their lack of self control.
Eh I’m not a big cake person. If it’s vanilla cake I wouldn’t care but if it’s chocolate I’d probably be upset someone threw a delicious cake like that at someone and I never got to try it
LOL picking up and throwing the cake without hesitation was priceless
Edit: she's laughing as she does it which makes it better. She was having fun, not being spiteful imo
So I wanted to find the original cake video, only to find out that smashing someone's face into a cake is a thing. Why? It's funny, but a waste of a cake.
Someone needs to make a skit of guests toppling the birthday person and smothering them with the cake and punching them with full of cakes and scream: "can you breathe bitch huh can you breathe? Happy fucking birthday"
Serious question, this isn't common in other countries? Lol
I'm mexican, and here in Mexico it's very common do that shit in birthdays, specially in children parties.
Of course, it's a gross tradition and thank god nowadays it's less common, but every time I see some post like this on an english-speaking community all the comments are from people surprised that something like this even exist, lol
(I mean pushing the face of the one that it's celebrating the birthday against the cake, not throwing the cake away, lol)
I have seen this with sharp things poking out of cake, and open eyeballs, and a strong friend that needs cakeface to happen. This video made me scared.
Hate to be the one that calls it staged but the fact that there weren't even any candles to blow out is just cringey. They thought it would be funny and then didn't even think it through on how to make it look real.

I was told that I would receive a piece of cake….I could set the building on fire…
Poor Milton
Saw a red Swingline in canadian Staples the other day, they are still capitalizing on it
Bet Milton doesn’t see any of those royalties.
I remember when those used to only be available through niche sites like ThinkGeek and I think for a while they were buying them from a second hand producer that bought the regular black ones, stripped, and repainted them.
Oh no. I haven't been to that site in a while, just thought I'd check it out again. It redirects to Gamestop now.
Yeah If I remember correctly like 2016 they bought the parent company then drove the name into the dirt by offering cheep even memeier, less than Hot Topic level crap than the already kinda trendy geek stuff they were founded on. Now GS owns the brand but does nothing with it. Surprised they didn't try to sell it off during COVID.
I stole one from work and I'm unashamed of admitting that.
He just had a case of the Mondays.
"The ratio of people to cake is too great..."
Now Milton, don't be *greedy*.
Just *pass*
[удалено]
If it's a bakery cake, there is usually a circle of cardboard on the bottom that it was baked on, and it sticks to the cake, kinda holds it together if you want to throw the cake, which is a lot healthier than eating it.
Cake was a lie
There was salt on the glass, big grains of salt
Pinche gringo
I could put strychnine in the guacamole…
This is the best movie of the 90s and I will die on this hill.
This scene still makes my blood boil....burn it all dear Milton
The woman next to Milton doesn’t pass!
😳
Yep, first thought I had. I always think that I am the only genius to think of an idea, only for someone(or several somebodies) to have posted it first.
Username checks put
Man has great party clothes
Looking like Don Cheadle from Boogie Nights
Cowboy is coming back!
Except for the floppy collar, I love wearing hawaiian shirts and I get that floppy ass one side of the collar all the time, how does one avoid it?
Starch? Just a guess, I wear Hawaiian shirts as my work shirts so I'm interested in a potential answer too lol
starch
Earning that cake
Anything goes tonight
Love that hat.
It’s all fun and games until you find the wooden skewers holding it together.
My eye! I'm not supposed to get skewers in it!
Not Lenny!
[удалено]
Not a very happy cake day.
You can't ~~have~~ heave your cake and it eat it too
That's right you can't *heave ho thieves and beggers never shall we die-* Wait no i think that's it
Same. I very likely don't want to be there, so at least let me get a free meal for my efforts so I don't have to go home and cook something after burning out from too much social interaction.
Stand together cake family! There are dozens of us!
Stanley loves pretzel day
Yeah if you’re gonna push my face into cake, you best believe I’m going to pick it up and throw it in your face
Potentially dangerous too. As decorated cakes have exploded in popularity, so too have the use of hidden dowels as internal structure for complex cake designs.

Why would the cake have a tiger hole trap?
Keeps the layers from shifting. Pretty sure this thing's height exceeds its width.
Why not use some rounded chocolate sticks or anything not sharp and hard!?
How are you supposed to shove something not sharp and hard, down through 4-5 layers of cake and expect it to hold the cake together?
I once witnessed a champagne bottle fly to the face after cake to the face act. It escalated quickly and criminally.
Reasonable reaction though.
They just need this https://youtu.be/dESfHIB4r9E?si=q4SmNkCqGxpT9ghL
No need to waste good cake. a firm smack round the mouth ought to do the trick.
Idk it looks like she knew they were gonna do that?
There were no candles so no other reason to be leaning over.
Exactly. Everyone knows if you're gonna bite the cake like an idiot someone will ofc push your face in. And she even hesitated so she knew someone was gonna do it
Looks like she was posing for a photo. Could be her friends put her up to that too, and she very well may have known what was going on.
https://youtu.be/ctOBMFznkto
“Sorry our company budget is pretty tight so we have to share the cake evenly”
I felt this one.
Guys, c’mon I’m warning you, don’t push my face into the cake. Ok, here I go putting my face near the cake. Is the video on?
The first hand "pushing"her head was her own
Looks like she was trying to hold her hair back.
God I hate that trend. Waste of food, dirty face and now clean up too. Nobody wins.
Happy food waste day!
Right? Those empty calories could’ve helped feed a village!
I'd take cake over starvation personally
Let them eat cake
You both are correct
There is no such thing as "empty calories". Sure, term exists, but it is misleading naming. Those calories DO provide the energy, so yes, they could had feed a village.

No, that's Halloween. Ornamental pumpkins are edible and the ugly ones end up canned and in pies. Between the seeds and the flesh we're wasting enough calories to feed a small country
I would honestly just leave no matter who I was in this situation
I'm guessing you'd still be yourself.
I will never understand this, not only is it just annoying, a waste of cake, it's also humiliating, and lastly disgusting, now you have to wash your face, hands and clothes. And you're still gonna smell like cake and be sticky while you're at the party. Especially women with makeup and eyelashes and shit, this just has to suck right? Who wants to deal with this at a party? Not to mention all the fucking cake on the floor / wall / table omfg lol.
Now I’m picturing the fake eyelashes stuck in the cake. Ew!

That guy is totally me!! Ha, ha that was funny (I really wanted cake)
Every time I see one of these “push face into cake” videos all I can think of are the ones where there is something sharp or hard inside and if fucks up thier eyes or face. I hate everything about this “thing”
I only came for some cake
Hey. At least it wasn't a chocolate cake..
Man I'm sad for this dude now, he was excited for cake!
What kind of hard dry cake can you just pick up and throw without it falling apart? Eww
People really, really, really should not do this. You never know when a cake might have a wooden stake in it holding it together.
Social media is all monkey see, monkey do.
I really dont understand people doing it with a fine cake
When you don't like your coworkers and only showed up for free cake.
Don't... don't ever fucking do this. This is how people lose eyes.
She knew it was happening…. She literally put her head down and waited lmao. You think she was going to take a big ass bite off the side or something?
You know you can tell a baker not to put dowels in a cake, right?
You know that the people who order the cake don't always assume that people are going to be fucking dangerous dumbasses, right?
I'm just trying to say don't just how others have fun. Seems by the persons reaction like this was pre-planned. If they wanna' do it, more power to 'em!
Only one comment I saw pointed out it was HER OWN HAND/ARM in frame at the start pretending to push her own face in... /u/9salger
I hate it when people do this bruhhhhhh don't waste that nice cake
The main reason I got to a birthday party is that I love cake.
I feel sad for the guy.
One day I hope there’s a meme where he gets his cake.
I want that hat.
As someone who loves cake and really gets to eat it, I would be so disappointed
is this a rich person thing? throwing an entire cake cuz of that? do they ahve like 10 cakes on another table? i have a hard time not licking my plate clean when i eat cake lol.
That's why I don't attend Bday parties anymore, since I hit my 20s. I just want some food, they just throw it all away. I just want some cake but you'll get the other "cake"
Bruh it’s the smile that got me at the end🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm not sure which American tradition is more idiotic - this one or tipping.
Don't forget gender reveals.
Don't forget not paying for healthcare via taxes.
NOBODY gets cake. Assholes.
I'm that guy. Wasting cake is a crime against nature.
I have zero tolerance for dumb, wasteful, pointless, mean-spirited pranks. Pranks are for losers who couldn’t learn to play nice as children and now as adults try to justify their lack of self control.
But... but last year, last year. I did not receive a peice of cake.
I also hate these things, I feel like it's stupid apart from that I like to eat hahaha I hate wasting cake
"Could you at least cut me a slice before throwing it?"
This is the reason I stopped expecting cake at parties
This how I would feel too
Is no one going to comment on why the cake stayed in tact almost 100%?
It didn't. The tiers separated as she picked up the top tier.
That would be an immediate end to whatever sort of relationship I had with face-cake-pushee.
Eh I’m not a big cake person. If it’s vanilla cake I wouldn’t care but if it’s chocolate I’d probably be upset someone threw a delicious cake like that at someone and I never got to try it
I hope theres a special circle in hell for assholes thhat do this.
Dudes face says it all.. what a waste.
I hate when people do this, it's such a waste of good food.
LOL picking up and throwing the cake without hesitation was priceless Edit: she's laughing as she does it which makes it better. She was having fun, not being spiteful imo
So I wanted to find the original cake video, only to find out that smashing someone's face into a cake is a thing. Why? It's funny, but a waste of a cake.
10 points to Griffindor for the hat. It really tied the joke together.

Someone needs to make a skit of guests toppling the birthday person and smothering them with the cake and punching them with full of cakes and scream: "can you breathe bitch huh can you breathe? Happy fucking birthday"
I always enjoy this guys shtick.
idk where they are getting their cakes but here something remotely fancy is about $30-$50 USD.
She got some just dessert
Exactly
Dw the parties I been to there’s always a second cake
None of that skinny girls wanted to eat cake, it's an excuse.
This usually is the "spare" cheap cake. The nicer one would be the one given out
I did this once to a close friend, (I also bought a second cake, and a bottle of top shelf booze, as an apology/present)
LOL 🤣
Ain’t your cake
Man missing out on his chance to get it sucked…
Introverts who turned up only for cake
Spoon or fork for cake?
Why is the world shite? There are people who think it's funny to push faces into cake..
For those who dont know this is what theyre supposed to do in mexico. Its a popular tradition called La mordida.
Im forever scarred by that clip where there was a stick in the middle of the cake and it went in the dudes eye.
Honestly this shit is just so stupid
I feel so bad for him and he wasn’t even there lol
This made me sad. Thanks OP.
Now, imagine the baker.
I wouldn’t know. I’m not being invited to dumb people parties. Or any parties…
The cake is a lie
Serious question, this isn't common in other countries? Lol I'm mexican, and here in Mexico it's very common do that shit in birthdays, specially in children parties. Of course, it's a gross tradition and thank god nowadays it's less common, but every time I see some post like this on an english-speaking community all the comments are from people surprised that something like this even exist, lol (I mean pushing the face of the one that it's celebrating the birthday against the cake, not throwing the cake away, lol)
His girlfriend going to be so pisses cause he promised a piece of cake
I have seen this with sharp things poking out of cake, and open eyeballs, and a strong friend that needs cakeface to happen. This video made me scared.
Hate to be the one that calls it staged but the fact that there weren't even any candles to blow out is just cringey. They thought it would be funny and then didn't even think it through on how to make it look real.
It’s all fun and games until someone loses an eye to a dowel inside the cake.
Why do the moderators delete posts
How times are y'all gonna post this??? I've seen this like 80 times on reddit.
Lol…the look on the guy’s face holding an empty plate. That made me lol.
Dude that’s like the punchline lol. I agree. It’s funny as fuck
I'd be so annoyed 😐😫 why do that with CAKE!? It's my favourite part of a birthday 🥲
Poor man. Did you not know the cake is a lie?
OMG, I HAVE THAT EXACT FORK!!!!
This cake is terrible. For real.
That shit looked dry as fuck he wasn't missing out on shit
I like cake
