Ermergerd Tirgers!!
August 8, 2016 It's International Cat Day, so let's celebrate John's favorite animal EVER:
;)
TIEGERS!!
Wait, no, I mean:
;)
TIRGERS!!
(ERMERGHERD!)
You know, the things that can sit(?) on their own heads?
;)
("This feels grrrrrREAT!")
And have three jaws, tentacles, and 'uge, pointy teeth?
;)
IT'S A TIGER!
(Helpful label is helpful.)
So happy Cat Day, everyone, and remember:
;)
o.0

Thanks to Brandi H., Kate S., Heather A., Taylor G., & Tiffany T. for keeping it catty.

Pul-eeese! #3 is obviously the Grand High Exalted Poo-bah of the Knights of the Terrible Tigger wearing his turban of office with the little Tigger ears on top. (They are known for their charity work, you know)
The second baker left the poo-wang mascot off...that is the problem...
Wait, you haven't heard of them? The Turgid Tirgers??!?
I like the third one best. It looks the most like a tiger (And no spelling to mess up! ^^)
My poor Norman. I have been putting cinnamon on his Cat Chow, and should have been using pepper. Dopey me! This is as helpful as the Facebook post that told me vaping was bad for my cat. I never could get them to tell me whether it was better to wean him off the e-cigs or make him go cold turkey.
Somehow I find number 3 a Wreck but a cute Wreck.
I don't know if that Pepper/Cinnamon thing is true. I should see if I can get the folks at Big Cat Rescue to answer that. ;)
What? You mean you don't find that advice super helpful? my pet tiger doesn't enjoy his steak tartare without a light sprinkling of cayenne pepper flakes.
Don't tell anyone at SyFy about the TigerSquid. PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, JUST DON'T.
...Oh, and the wreckerator gets extra bonus points on the first cake for putting "Tiegers" directly above a little flag with the word spelled correctly RIGHT ON IT.
The wonderful thing about tiegers
Is Tirgers are wonderful things
Their tops can balance their bottoms
Though cinnamon's not their thing
They're misspelled, sloppy, somewhat gloppy
I wish these cakes were gone!
The only acceptable thing about tiegers
Is they are loved by John.
Yes, they are loved by John...
@Badkarma, they already made a movie in which a there was a octopus/shark hybrid, so a movie with a shark/tiger hybrid would not be much of a stretch for them O_o I do not think these people know what a tiger is. As for the last cake ORIGINAL HANGOVER FTW!!
Well, tiger's (sic) may hate "Cinnamann" but they obviously like sprinkles.
I think I caught #4 a couple of days ago while playing Pokemon.
^^SuBee! LOL!!
Well, today's Wreckerators look like they didn't even try. Even the weird cinnamon vs. pepper thing is spelled correctly. Bakers should be required to earn a "Punctuation Usage License" before being unleashed on poor, innocent cakes.
No, that really isn't a tiger.
A short digression from the tigers - tiegers - tirgers theme ...
I didn't recognize "ERMERGHERD" so I googled it. Google not only displayed all the images for that meme it even corrected my spelling. :-) "Showing results for ERMAHGERD"

The only saving grace for the first one is that it's a LSU cake. GEAUX TIGERS!!!
On the first picture where they misspelled tiger if you look there is a plastic banner with the word TIGER on it!!! So much for being observant.
Helpful label is helpful. I spit out my potato chips there.
It was kind of the Hoopy 28th Andy to tell us about the Tiger's love of pepper, but their hatred of
Cinnan-squootch!
Love the ending graphic!!! Perfect!
That last one is OBVIOUSLY referring to Andy's new favorite stripper. (First husband shared his hard-earned (tee-hee!) knowledge of strippers; so many share names with common baking ingredients)
Geaux Tigers! = priceless. (Laughing with delight)
Am I seriously the only one wondering what HOOS are? (second cake)
Oh good. A creepy tiger spider. Because we don't have enough creepy spiders in the world, I need a new one to cause more nightmares. Awesome.
Just think of tiegers as the French pronunciation of tiger and it makes sense - so maybe the bakers/decorators were French Canadian, eh?
Tigers do yoga - who knew?
Cake #4 doesn't look like a tiger, but it does look like what you might get if a tiger bred with either a Predator, or an Alien face-hugger.
No. No, that is NOT a tiger! I don't know what it is, but it looks like some weirdly colored tarantula with missing legs.
The only thing I look forward to more than the posts themselves are SuBee's comments!!! Always taking it to a whole new level! :)
Cake #2 was likely ordered by a University of Virginia fan.
Oh man that "tiger" reminds me of the Rathars in The Force Awakens lol. Running away is best if someone gets that thing for a cake.. eek.
Okay the tiger pepper cinnamon quote sounded strangely familiar. Thanks to Google for helping my memory. It's from The Hangover!

Odd that the CCC (ptooiie!) is arguably the best one.
So that website for the rainbow cake has now changed the cake... the description still says it is 4 layers but the photo shows 6 layers. And the description says the top is covered in skittles which it isn't in the picture. I'm thinking if you order the rainbow cake from there, it is just a craps shoot on what you might receive!! It will in some form or fashion be rainbow-like, but that's about it!
And for the person who asked about the Hoos... that is University of Virginia.
Mostly what makes me laugh is not so much the cakes, but the whitty commentary that accompanies said cakes. Love you guys!
Thank goodness they labeled #4! If they hadn't, I would have thought it was an orange, spotted spider. 0.O
The cinnamon/pepper one is from the Hangover
