To pelt my cakes at this mum's head in the playground this afternoon? <fume>

The school are having a cake sale tomorrow and have BEGGED for donations of cakes. They have been Facebooking about how desperate they are all week as they want to make a dent in the £12,000 target needed for some new play equipment in the playground. One might think that flogging cakes at 30 pee each is not the way to make a dent but that's another thing...

I am pushed for time this week but I thought I could do some cornflake easter nests with some mini eggs on top as a quick alternative to baking and frosting two dozen fairy cakes. So I went out and bought the stuff (which I reckon cost more than they will get from the sales tbh) Then I replied to one of the FB begging messages saying "I will bring some cornflake easter nests tomorrow, will have about 40" Then one of the PTA wimmin replied "Ha ha! That's great but be prepared to take most of them home as they don't sell as well as real cakes."

Fuck. You. Bitch.

Sorry, snuffle.....there is no coming back from this one.....

GetOeuf · 27/03/2013 14:24

Yesw 'well obviously I was being sarsastic' comes from the same cunt stable as 'I don't mean to be rude but...'

LauraShigihara · 27/03/2013 14:24

Some frantic backpedalling going on there. That was so not sarcastic. Just bloody rude.

Undertone · 27/03/2013 14:24

You have SO been rumbled. Bet she's thinking twice about maxi skirts now, too.

Grin GetOeuf...now that would be funny (Sorry Marmalade but it would)

Floristneedsaname · 27/03/2013 14:23

Marm it'll be ALL YOUR FAULT that the cake sale doesn't raise the £12k now.

GetOeuf · 27/03/2013 14:23

haha YES you can't just roll up at school tomorrow with any old crappy cornflake cakes slung together with one eye on the telly.

You will need to make sure they are gooduns don't drop them

HI LEMON DRIZZLE WOMAN!

I think we all need to sit down and chat about this to clear the air. Who wants to go first?

WhereYouLeftIt · 27/03/2013 14:23

"Well obviously I was being sarcastic. They SELL BEST."
Eh? Did she mean she was trying to be ironic? Because saying "Well obviously I was being sarcastic" is basically the same as saying 'I was being nasty and hoping you couldn't think up a witty reply'. Confused

I'd say "lol yes you're right, they'll be hanging round with that soggy lemon drizzle cake that makes an appearance sale after sale (is it the same one do you think? Ha ha)" as if you have forgotten its her that makes it.

minouminou · 27/03/2013 14:22

Yeah, It'sall, but I'm transposing the faces of some of the prize knobheads round our way and am getting a big vicarious thrill.....

You might need to change your MN name, and your real name, and get a new house, and new jobs. We can help!

Emilythornesbff · 27/03/2013 14:22

Get to sleep, ETB.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 27/03/2013 14:21

To be fair,it must be pretty shit to read a thread like this, and have that horrible sinking realisation that it is about you...

Emilythornesbff · 27/03/2013 14:21

Is she one of us?

Btw, not me because my lemon drizzle cake is fabulous.

GetOeuf · 27/03/2013 14:20

If she turns up tomorrow with loads of cupcakes with letters on spelling M A R M A L A D E I S A C U N T you will know you have been rumbled.

minouminou · 27/03/2013 14:20

Lemon juice and tears......and bitter, bitter defeat....
With a bit of bile....
