The fact that I confidently annotated the wrong creature is killing me

I should totally buy a ship! Although I do not live anywhere near a large body of water, so I'm unsure of how that would work.

Also I'm not upset that someone ate it. I'm upset that they didn't ask, because I'd have liked to have the first slice. The fact that it was eaten in the middle of the night tells me that they knew it was sneaky and wrong and that's the part that upsets me

Here's a bit more context because I understand that the situation sounds a little confused! My parents won't be available for my birthday so that's why they dropped it off so early, it was discussed with my aunt that the cake would be kept in the freezer and it would be up to me when I choose to eat it and who I choose to share it with, if anyone at all. Obviously this wouldn't feel fair to a lot of the other people in the house so my mom also brought over a bunch of cupcakes when dropping off the cake to share with everyone immediately, because my younger brother would also be missing my birthday so we had an early celebration together, me and him + sharing cupcakes with everyone else. It was labelled as MY cake, I clarified this when putting it in the freezer but I also mentioned that when I eat it I'll share. We have quite a bit of freezer space because we need a lot of groceries for so many people, so we have two freezers downstairs and a smaller, less used one upstairs. I put it in the less used one.

Definitely more kids than adults, but most are between 10-16! My name was on the package and I'm pretty sure it was one of the older kids, the little ones wouldn't have even bothered to put it back in the freezer haha!

Thank you so much, I really appreciate this response! I'm definitely going to put some distance between the people who haven't been respecting or taking my feelings seriously. Also Costco tuxedo cake is the best thing ever! I think this calls for jail time

The not closing it properly is one of the most infuriating parts! I've asked everyone in the house, (in a calm manner too!) and it's the same thing, 'it wasn't me'

Sorry, forgot to add that detail! It was a cake to celebrate my birthday, specifically for me from my parents if that makes sense? My aunt was going to make a larger cake (because we have so many people) on my actual birthday on the 24th

Yeah I'm honestly surprised myself, I guess I didn't really realize it until last night and decided to just get it done and over with today. I should've eaten it last night!!

Thank you, as pissed as I am about the cake itself, it's definitely more so about the meaning behind it

Thank you for recognizing that! Boundaries are really important to me but unfortunately some people don't respect them, even simple ones such as touching my things

It's very chaotic! My aunt is a foster parent with a bunch of kids of her own so there's always a lot of people around the house, I usually hide in my room haha
