Your history lesson for the day class! CLASS!
This phrase "Let them eat cake" is the traditional translation to English of the French phrase "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche", supposedly spoken by "a great princess" upon learning that the peasants had no bread. Since brioche was enriched, as opposed to normal bread, the quote supposedly would reflect the princess's obliviousness to the condition of the people. While they are commonly attributed to Queen Marie Antoinette, there is no record of these words ever having been uttered by her. A real B-wax!
The Lunch Gang have there own version of "Let them eat cake" it's called "Take whoever's cake is sitting out and enjoy it". The Lunch Gang is notorious in Cube City for taking other peoples cake. Some even call the Lunch Gang bullies. Heck, even Al Allen reported on it in his morning news broadcast. Al Allen even quoted one Lunch Gang member saying "we make those cakes our Bit**es". Today was just another example of how ruthless the Lunch Gang is when it comes to cake.
Some of you may or may not now but it's MC's 1st year anniversary at Cube City. So the rest of the gang decided to have a little celebration for him, by having cake at Bago Café (formerly known as Goose Lane Café). The original plan was for Bago to stop by a local bakery, pick up a cake, and have a little party. Well that didn't happen. Here's why…it snowed last night. Hell, we won't see Bago until March or April now.
Feeling rejected and down, Coach offers to head over to the bakery for a cake. Then with a flash of brilliance (which doesn't happen often) an SBM's spy says "there's left over cake on the bait pile!" Yes even the SBM knows of the bait pile. T-Mobile was off! He shot out of Bago Café (formerly known as Goose Lane Café) like Usain Bolt defending his Olympic titles in the 100 and 200 meter dashes. What was even better was watching T-Mobile return with cake in hand. The expression on his face was very similar if not the same as when President Clinton stood in front of the American people on national TV and said "I never had sexual relations with that women" yea; right; that look of being totally guilty.
Little did we know, when T-Mobil slams the cake on the table, it was multi-flavored, Blue & White Icing (our gang colors), with happy 1st Year Anniversary written on it…OUTSTANDING! We couldn't have planned this any better. Hope Bago is OK.
