From horribly distasteful to straight-up scary, these people shared photos of a birthday party that stuck with them. Some images are from childhood parties where the parents made questionable decisions, some are just hilarious fails, and the rest are of outrageously weird choices for a birthday cake.
Either way, hopefully, these people had a special day nonetheless, and for us, it’s just another reason to get a good laugh.
#1 Happy 1st Birthday To Our Baby. Jai's Got This Social Distancing Gig Down Packed
You can plan, organize and prepare for your birthday party and still get it wrong in other people’s eyes. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and though it’s impossible to get everyone on board, as long as you and your closest people enjoy it, it’s all you could wish for.
However, we live in a world where even the most private gatherings get shared with strangers online, and people have no filter whatsoever.
#6 My Son Loves Trash Cans And Garbage Trucks, So For His 2nd Birthday I Made Him A Dumpster Cake
When reading and hearing what other people think is right and wrong, we've gotten to a set of rules for organizing regular birthday parties that wouldn't insult others. So today, we are going to go through a list of things that could help you prepare for your next party without making it a distasteful tragedy.
One part that most of these people got halfway right is choosing a theme. However, the other part that they forgot to consider is to ask themselves if this is age-appropriate and/or if it is subtle or too out there.
#8 My Mom Paid A Stranger To Be A Clown At My Sister's Birthday. This Image Still Haunts Me
In regards to food and drink, we all expect cake, and we love personalization; however, simple, tasty, reliable cake can go a long way. We already saw how horribly wrong the decorating can go, especially if you are making it yourself. True, they can be way more fun, but this time we are covering the tragedy-evading scenarios.
As far as games and activities go, I think we are already past that clown at kids' birthdays phase. Instead, it’s way more efficient to invest in engaging games or creative stations to both have fun and enriching experiences. Add a curated music playlist to the background, and you have yourself a party that probably won’t end up in this thread.
