Shoshana ๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธI picked up this cake that said "Congrats on Submitting" and the person at the bakery said "make sure you always support the bottom."
This was a cake congratulating someone on submitting a paper to a journal.

@LilahTovMoon "duh, that's why I got the cake" would've been the answer to go with, I think
Dr. Angus Andrea Grieve-Smith@LilahTovMoon My undergraduate college's feminist literary journal used to put up posters saying, "Women, don't submit! Contribute!"
Googling the phrase I'm seeing results for 2007, but this was as early as 1989...
Ben ๐ณ๏ธโ๐@LilahTovMoon they are right you know
Paper Moon@LilahTovMoon@tech I imagine a short story there: little did they know that the baker was the professor in disguise and he was referring to the secret ritual, which every Phd student had to endure...
The Wandering Wind@LilahTovMoon lol. Bottom of the box, but also the bottom in the relationship. I love double meanings in humor!
Elena ``of Valhalla''@LilahTovMoon I mean...
(in Italian a rubber duck is called โpapero di gommaโ, and papero is used as a colloquial translation of paper instead of the correct โarticoloโ.)
Aitor Zaindari@LilahTovMoon OMG, I died. ๐
exlibrarykris@LilahTovMoon *tee hee hee*
Wilfried Klaebe@LilahTovMoon I would have thought to always support the bottom of the cardboard box so the cake doesn't rip through...
n3wjack@LilahTovMoon It's lacking an edible red ball as decoration next to the flowers. ๐

mhoye@LilahTovMoon If more people understood peer review as a kind of aftercare the world would be a better place.
Anne Ominous@LilahTovMoon i wonder if they'll be able to fit "Congrats on getting your paper accepted for review"
or "Congrats on awaiting the opinions of the three reviewers"
...on the cake for the next stages of the process

David@LilahTovMoon that's hilarious!
Adam R. Wood@LilahTovMoon This is one of the best "unintentional euphemisms" I've ever encountered!
Androcat@LilahTovMoon You need to keep using that bakery now.
Sorry, I don't make the rules.

รซRiC@LilahTovMoon I'm gonna be rather cheap and just send this to a co-worker after some code-review back-and-forth ๐
FiXato@LilahTovMoon Top comment of the day ;)
Fifty Shades of Naughty Fun ๐That is such a fifty shades cake. I love it. (congrats to the person who submitted a paper to the journal)
Erik Uden ๐ฉ@LilahTovMoon โsupport people who hit rock bottomโ would've been more fit
