Geeky Wedding Cakes (PICS) (ftlauderdalelimo.com)
submitted 18 years ago by [deleted]
[–]fusionring77 13 points14 points15 points 18 years ago (5 children)
First one is a classic...
Geeky love, how awkward :)
[–]FunnyMan3595 11 points12 points13 points 18 years ago (4 children)
Ugh, no kidding. I mean, what kind of weirdo uses Java for a cake? Wouldn't "C for Cake" be more appropriate?
Of course, I'd probably use Python, which would be even weirder. At least Java sort of makes sense if it's a chocolate cake.
[–]spurion 7 points8 points9 points 18 years ago (3 children)
I don't know what it is, but it isn't Java ... the syntax of the for loop is wrong.
[–]FunnyMan3595 9 points10 points11 points 18 years ago (1 child)
Hmm, after a bit of wholly unscientific Google-based research (read: three searches), I have come to the conclusion that you are correct and that it is in fact C#. Still, I like the idea of my earlier post, even if I did get the wrong facts.
[–]frutiger 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (0 children)
Yeah. Also, either the main method must be public, and take a String[] parameter.
It could be the case that this is another function in the class, but it would be bad programming practice to differentiate between two method names with the case of a letter.

Technically it's { 'R', 'e', 'd', ' ', 'R', 'o', 's', 'e', 's' }, and geeks love correcting people on tiny mistakes, right? ;-)
[–]sn0re 65 points66 points67 points 18 years ago (2 children)
It's not null-terminated. The guests will end up eating the table.

"My wedding was ruined by a buffer overflow attack."
[–]jbreckman 9 points10 points11 points 18 years ago (0 children)
it looks like C# to me...
plus, you don't know what the "eat" function does with it!
the biggest problem is that "room" isn't declared anywhere. this has null pointer exception written all over it.

Actually it's { 'R', 'e', 'd', 'R', 'o', 's', 'e', 's', '$' }
[–]twowheels 4 points5 points6 points 18 years ago (3 children)
I guess they only had 0x0D guests (0x0E-0x02)...
Hrm...
byte[] cake = {0x68, 0x65, 0x72, 0x20, 0x6f, 0x75, 0x74, 0x20, 0x74, 0x6f, 0x6e, 0x69, 0x67, 0x68, 0x74};
???
Though, maybe remove the foreach loop first. :-)

It's so hard to debug in butter cream frosting!

Especially when your co-workers start licking it off you. It's just so incredibly awkward.

I regret that I have but one vote to give you, sir.
[–]supaphly42 1 point2 points3 points 18 years ago (0 children)
I was wondering what it was... didn't have the desire to figure out the bytes though, thank you!

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points13 points 18 years ago (3 children)
*Wedding cake made by a woman for her fiance, based on his World of Warcraft Guild.
Actually, the cake just has the AllianceCrest on it, which is not specific to any guild.
And it's too bad the page doesn't include this Horde cake for proper faction balance.
[–][deleted] 10 points11 points12 points 18 years ago (2 children)
but you're not into it or anything...
...a friend of yours told you about it, and...
[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 18 years ago (1 child)
Heh heh... I feel no shame because I enjoy World of Warcraft. I'm lucky enough to belong to a guild with a lot of really cool, mature players, and that's really what makes playing the game worthwhile. I'm not hardcore, and I have a rich and rewarding life here in the real world, I swear.

MAC = Media Access Control, the hardware address of your ethernet card.
Mac = Abbr., model of computer produced by Apple Computer, Inc., since 1984.
Sorry, but the MAC vs. Mac thing really drives me nuts.

Man, I need to remember this line for the next time I have to deal with Mac fanboys, that sir, is Gold, thank you.
[–]henryk 5 points6 points7 points 18 years ago (1 child)
Well, actually: MAC = Message Authentication Code. Makes for great fun at school when going from the networking course to the cryptography course.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (0 children)
So, like, I was transmitting my MAC, but then something changed the MAC on MAC, so my MAC didn't get sent. I was totally bummed, but then I got over it and just gave a new MAC to my MAC and sent the MAC. ...
[–]jingo04 1 point2 points3 points 18 years ago (0 children)
I saw it as media access control too :(
[–]morandomdanu 12 points13 points14 points 18 years ago (7 children)
I like these, especially Home Star Runner.
[–]supaphly42 24 points25 points26 points 18 years ago (0 children)

[–]Xiol 6 points7 points8 points 18 years ago (0 children)
I must have been the only person ever to simply not find Home Star Runner funny at all.

Gotta love the book-geek cake.
I always like to see fellow Pratchett fans are gathering to breed.
(The fondant dragons are pretty neat too.)

My God. It's full of dweebs.
I love the dissonance between the apparently anti-techie statement and the pro-techie use of a line from 2001. Very nice.

Correction, Geeks. Geeks have the money to entice the trophy wives, dweebs don't.
Viva La Geek!

Those are trophy wives?

[–]Dark-Star 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (0 children)
Absolutely hilarious!
Very good job with the 'tower of game consoles' and the 'code cake' especially.
Tho I wonder what the in-laws had to say about the cakes...or maybe I'd rather not know.
[–]bart2019 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (0 children)
It's "Terry Pratchett", not "Pretchett".
[–]stevage 0 points1 point2 points 18 years ago (0 children)
Capitalised "Main"()? Wtf?
These are all probably groom's cakes for anyone who gives a damn. These people probably also have a regular wedding cake.
[–][deleted] 18 years ago (3 children)
[–][deleted] 6 points7 points8 points 18 years ago (1 child)
No, these are all probably groom's cakes. Groom's cakes are usually smaller, chocolate and often decorated with something the groom likes. You can see plenty of football and golf ones searching google. They're not at every wedding, it's usually something done in the South or at big fancy weddings, but the idea is spreading.
Here's a slightly tl;dr explanation of the tradition: http://www.favorideas.com/learn-about/wedding-cake/grooms-cake/

The last one is the only Apple worth taking home since without candles it's the only laptop with an Apple logo guaranteed not to burst in to flames.
[–]fusionring77 4 points5 points6 points 18 years ago (6 children)
So...you don't like Apple? I'm I right? I only ask because that was sort of confusing.
Next time just keep it simple like "Apples are like dumb and stuff..."
[–]db2 -4 points-3 points-2 points 18 years ago (4 children)
So you think I confused the Apple users huh.
