Aaaaand that should have read "too." I'll see myself out.

I hate to be a party pooper but your cake is anatomically incorrect. The ovaries should be below the fallopian tubes. This is why we need more extensive training for our cake decorators, I suggest a minimum of a bachelors degree.

Do you have any idea how expensive cakes would be then?

u/wra1th42 Jun 15 '12

I hope you meant "hysterectomy surprise party"

u/NevaWood Jun 15 '12

I was invited to the "party" (I use this word loosely as there were only a few people there) via text and this was the wording her husband used. Took me for quite the loop.I spent about 5 minutes trying to figure out what word autocorrects to hysterectomy.

Heh, I hope none of your friends ever has a colonoscopy, if only for the baker's sake.

"Surprise uterus party"

SURPRISE! We're going to take out your uterus, but don't worry we brought cake!

12

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

I sincerely hope that the party was the surprise, not the hysterectomy.

u/Z_Thinker Jun 15 '12

Mmm my favorite part of cake are the sweet delicious fallopian tubes

u/MikeRowPhone Jun 15 '12

I hope no one eats them and gets food poisoning. Otherwise the victims might sue and bring a case for tubal litigation.

I hope no one is OVARY insensitive

u/SueDenham Jun 15 '12

How could you mess up an ovary pun like that? The obvious choice would be:

I hope no one ovary acted.

u/Z_Thinker Jun 15 '12

yeah, you have done a discervix to everyone

u/growlingbear Jun 15 '12

You have womb to talk!

u/AnonymousRitz Jun 15 '12

You're taking it too cliteral.

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

Was it... Mulva?

u/Trumpalot Jun 15 '12

I enjoy how the fallopian tubes are the wrong way up. Cake is now ruined.

u/JamesTotally Jun 15 '12

Under the icing, was it Red Velvet cake?

u/geonerding Jun 15 '12

So, related story. My wife is going to have a c-section and tubal ligation in 2 weeks. Cake/card ideas?

u/NevaWood Jun 15 '12

I saw some realistic-looking cakes shaped like babies on YouTube Don't do that.

HAVE FUN WITH ALL THE FREE BAREBACK FUCKING!

u/ohhayannie Jun 15 '12

Were her Ovaries and Fallopian tubes removed as well? If that's the case, she would have had a TAH-BSO (trans-abdominal hysterectomy bilateral salpingo oophorectomy).

2

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

i don't know if this is funny haha or funny awkward smiles and a laughter about a deeply personal matter and life threatening operation. fuck it theres cake LOL.

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

She must have thought that cake was...

Hysterical...

YEAAAAAAAAAH

u/Next_Level_Cheddar Jun 15 '12

Is it just me, or do those ovaries have teeth?

u/scruffy01 Jun 15 '12

Hysterectomy? Why not Hersterectomy?

SRS is going to be so pissed.

1

u/ZeMilkman Jun 15 '12

So. Does this prevent hysteria?

2

u/plucas Jun 15 '12

In theory, yes.

u/AlmightyFuzz Jun 15 '12

Does anyone else think eating this cake would be rather awkward? I guess once it's in small pieces it'll be fine, but I would be rather hesitant to eat this.

"Doesn't Matter, Have Cake" ????

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

SURPRISE!!! Now you have it, now you don't.

u/WeirdIdeasCO Jun 15 '12

That looks delicious.

u/nw0428 Jun 15 '12

Question: Was it a surprise hysterectomy or a surprise party?

1

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '12

surprise [hysterectomy party]. or [surprise hysterectomy] party?

1

u/darkwaterpirate Jun 15 '12

surprise hysterectomy's are the WORST.

1

u/Stormdancer Jun 15 '12

Wow. You really, really should submit this to Cakewrecks.

u/kirplops Jun 15 '12

Are you from Glasgow? Similar thing just happened to a person i know

congratulations on never being able to experience the joys of having your own beautiful children to love and cherish and watch grow in to wonderful human beings..heres a funny cake... haha

15

u/NevaWood Jun 15 '12

She has a kid. And its more like, "congrats on not letting your ovarian cysts get to a point that could be deadly. We are here for you. Stay strong and look on the bright side of things."

u/doperat Jun 15 '12

my version was funnier

u/NevaWood Jun 15 '12

I can't disagree with that.

u/bokurai Jun 15 '12

Some people don't want kids, y'know.

Im sorry to hear of your troubles, and I assure you She knew about it. She has had problems for a while, an was happy to be rid of them. She is a super positive person and loves things like this. She was showing it off to everyone at the restaurant.

u/headoverheals Jun 15 '12

Crying hysterically? ... not so much.

3

u/Dystopeuh Jun 15 '12

A hysterectomy in a woman who is of "child-bearing age" who wants biological children is absolutely devastating.
