Um… here is the originating site’s text on the cake.

My friend Lynda is totally cool. She is the type of person who can pick out the best stuff. The picture you see above was a photograph of a wedding cake that she wanted for her wedding.

I don’t know where Lynda got the photo, but it looks pretty neat and with her colors and flowers it was going to be a smash hit. As complex as the pattern looks at first, when you really think about it, it is just a serious of straight ribbons laced together. I think the design is great.

Unfortunately, Lynda didn’t consider that her baker might make some promises that she couldn’t keep. In fact, it seems like Lynda’s baker was more interested in Rum Cake than Wedding cake. Click on the small picture to see what Lynda’s actual cake ended up looking like. This photo is from her ACTUAL reception. This pile of cake had to sit in front everyone during the reception. Lynda spent the first year of her marriage in the courtroom suing a drunk baker. Ouch.

Well let’s see here…

1) “I don’t know where Lynda got the photo” - “Lynda didn’t consider that her baker might make some promises that she couldn’t keep” WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT I SAID

2) “Lynda spent the first year of her marriage in the courtroom suing a drunk baker” - A little more than your week you described (more like 52 weeks eh?)

You stated “And the difference between a lawsuit and getting your money back.” Well I was stating that you work your way up. If you remember your initial comment it was THE SIMPLE THING YOU DO IS CALL YOUR CREDIT CARD COMPANY - which to I replied that is not the first step you take. Though it may be simple to pick up the phone and dial your CC first I highly doubt you’ve been on the receiving end of those inquiries by the CC company. I had one where some lady bought product, bought someone elses, tried to return mine (while I have a policy against returns on said products) and her response was “I will slander you in the local newspaper and report you to the BBB” because she felt that I didn’t have the policy displayed well enough (computer printed onto my receipts like Wal-Mart). She then proceeded to dispute the claim with her CC co. I dropped the ball and didn’t reply promptly enough and she got to keep over $100 in product and got her money back. I was at fault for not dealing with it in a timely fashion but I also PAID this woman to degrade me in my store (i.e. free product to her).

Also I don’t know if the Rum Cake is a sarcastic response by the writer or that she was a lush who made Rum Cakes all the time. So feel free to figure that out for me but I do stand by what I said and think you really need to RTFA before you comment
