It’s been a while since I posted a “Nerd News”.  There are plenty of other more established nerd sites that do a much better job at categorizing and snarking on all those wonderful things that dudes like me dig, but this is WAY TO GOOD not to share.

I present THE BEST CAKE EVER!!!

There is no room for discussion.  If there is an existing list of BEST CAKES EVER, then this goes straight to number one where it will reign forever and ever.

Look closer at the detail…

Freakin’ Brilliant!!!

And better yet – it was a WEDDING CAKE!!!!  Okay, a Groom’s cake but STILL!!!

Dudes, any woman willing to allow a dead Tauntaun stuffed with Skywalker groom’s cake is a KEEPER.  Period, end of story.

No brains….baaaaaaaconnnnnn!!!

I mean come on…how awesome is this?

You can even get this image on a t-shirt!  What???  That’s right, you heard me correctly.  Get your’s today at Red Bubble.
