LOLcake

I made a LOLcake to take to Brother Windows's household tomorrow.



LOLcake

Chocolate cake with a hint of Forest Fruit black tea; chocolate buttercream icing with a bit of peanut butter, pink buttercream icing with a dash of hazelnut, sugar hearts


The cake was made with the Chocolate Cake of Doom recipe; the frosting was made with about 4 tablespoons margarine and 1½ tablespoons peanut butter to 4 dL powdered sugar and about 6 tablespoons unsweet cocoa, with an unmeasured dash of milk. The pink frosting is ordinary buttercream, about the same sans peanutbutter and plus a tiny dab of hazelnut flavouring syrup that the beauteous isilya sent me for my coffee one time.

putting on my Judging Tiara:

I never look at communities that are actually lamer than fandom secrets on purpose (rarely that either. ugh), so I only see the bandom secrets when my better less selective half is looking at them, but every time I do I get completely exasperated because there's nothing in there that qualifies as a secret, usually - barely even an unpopular opinion. "I don't like SOMEONE WHO I CAN'T NAME!" "I don't like the music!" "I like this writer no matter what people say!"

If you're afraid to express these opinions in your own journal even though you're positively burning to get them off your chest, then you probably a) are being irrational AND b) need to get new friends. To top off this remarkable failure to comprehend the concepts of "secret" and "rant", the comments are always full of people who fail even more spectacularly to comprehend and think the community is called Fandom Discussion or Fandom Debate or Fandom We All Are Entitled To Different Opinions And Can Agree To Just Get Along, Children. Oh wow! Really? Can we?

I was going to list some opinions which are totally not secrets but which would be misguidedly posted as them by the denizens of these communities by way of example, but a) I have mercifully blanked the exact style of many of them from my memory because the exposure wasn't too long and b) I can't be bothered right now; I'm going to walk the dog instead. It's not like I'm shy with my opinions anyway. If you don't know that I categorically loathe Frank/Bob and condemn its presence in fandom and all influences which spread it, for example, you don't know me. (I'm always judging! Fact #10 or so, or possibly more like #4?)
