The lines were right there
It’s probably a lot more challenging to cut cakes, pies, and other deli foods correctly than most people believe. It should be pretty simple when the lines are correct (already on whatever is being sliced), right?
On second thought, it looks like this person’s suffering wasn’t simple, and they kind of botched the snipping. They didn’t even come close to doing so, but there is comfort in something – the cake’s flavor did not change regardless of the size. Everything tastes similar, no matter how big or small you make it.
