Don't hold back, thoth lad. We need to know which side you're on. Well, I want my cake and I want to eat it too. Which in this case means that the cake is a pie and.... arrgh...confussled....

The "Pake" (cake in a piecrust) subplot on Drop Dead Diva confused a lot of people. But at least it made Stacy super-rich after she sold the company!

Cobie, all the things you accuse Cake of are not Cake's fault. Rather, like so many of us, Cake is the victim of our souless, consumerist, reductionist, materialist society.
Once upon a time there were great regional Cakes in this country--the misnamed but delicious Boston Cream Pie, the demonically good Southern Red Cake, the New York Cheese Cake, the California Carrot Cake, the Texas Angel Food, to name just a few.
Then, Cake was seduced by the Birthday and Wedding Industrial Complexes. "We'll make you bigger than ever, Cake" they whispered in his frosting. In fact, they have reduced him to a bland, homogenized, McDonaldized commodity, a sad empty shell of his former glory, unappreciated, just a sickly sweet gateway to gifts.
Please, Cobie, don't sentence Cake to punishment for the sins of this sick society. Spare Cake, and do your own little part to restore him to his former greatness. Wow, it's incredible to note Doublechinner's impassioned defense of cake 10 years ago!

Speaking of the decade flying by, it's telling that the awesome/awful board Cake Wrecks is still going strong, though you can no longer purchase that epic/disturbing pennant featuring a doll-like baby astride a giant frosting carrot. (I missed my chance!  ) But I don't believe a Pie Wrecks site exists. Probably because a certain surviving U.S. cookware maker would've sued them out of existence within 10 days time.
