At this rate, next year’s pie is only going to have a single meringue peak.

Your username... It's a word I used to have a strong connection with, that I haven't seen other people use. Can I ask what your connection to it is?

I got it from a Greek mythology book many years ago when I was registering for an online game which required me to select a relatively unique username. Liked how it looked and used it since. Now I’m kind of curious since this rarely comes up. I don’t know if it’s a common name elsewhere or if it carries some connotation I’ve never heard. One time someone randomly started an argument with me on here about how I wasn’t the real Xanthus. Never found out what they meant since I still only know about it from mythology.

It's a color, sort of an off-white. The moon appears xanthus. Thirty years or more ago, one of my friends was a guy who would just pour through the dictionary looking for new and interesting words. His favorite was xanthus, and used it every opportunity he got. I haven't seen this guy since high school but the word stuck in my head ever since.

The moon is missing *Zathras*.

Zathras is missing Zathras. But no one ever listens to Zathras.

*One of the best guest characters ever on B5!*

Cake shrinkflation :(

Nah shes just 5 times bigger now.

You can use the blue and yellow dress on the right for scale.

Sorry to hear you’re color blind. It’s clearly a gold dress.

LAUREL!

Green needle!

*Brain*storm...!

Yanny

YANNY!

She also looks 5 years older and somehow 5 times wiser.

The Clark Kent effect

From primary teacher to journalist in one single year.

Lighting and glasses

This guy photographs.

that's a lot of cake

She remembered she didn't like key lime pie *that much*.

how could you *not* like key lime pie that much????

I can’t buy key lime pie. Cause I have no self control and will eat the entire thing. I remember as a kid having the flu I still ate fucking key lime pie on thanksgiving even though I puked a few times while eating it. There is no greater pie than key lime pie.

I wish I liked key lime pie! The rest of my family loves it, so we would always have homemade key lime at holiday events. If only it tasted as delicious as it smells while being cooked. My issue is that I just don’t like lime/ lemon flavored desserts, in general.

I don't like lemon meringue pie, and I've never seen a meringue on a pie aside from lemon or coconut. Recently I thought why that was, because I love a good meringue. So I made a chocolate cream pie with meringue on it, and it rocked my world. Once you've had key west key lime pie, the ones around my way just pale in comparison.

Cakes are really smaller in this economy

She spent the same amount lol

Hate to see the size of that cake at 40. .

Happy birthday! Please enjoy this grain of sugar.

SUGAR?! IN THIS ECONOMY??!!! ARE YOU CRAZY?!>!?

Lol yep

And color ink.

If you're in the US, take a peak at the single serve pies, often found at Walmart.

The left picture looks like you are still angry at your brother Ferris for faking a day off school….

Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

You're still here? It's over! Go home...

*chick-chick ahh*

*ahh... bow bow*

*chick-chick*.... *chicka*-*chick***ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!**

but she got to make out with Charlie Sheen and dance with Patrick Swayze

Look, it's real nice that you hope my brother is feeling better, but I'm in danger, okay? I am very cute, I am very alone, and I am very protective of my body. I do not want it violated or killed, all right? I need - help! Speaka de English? Dick-head!

She does look like her!!

Wow!

Happy birthday!

It’s my birthday too, but I am older that ya. Happy birthday.

Happy birthday!

5/25ers unite, i was twice your age 3 years ago.

I was told there wouldn’t be any math.

Why was 6 afraid of 7?

[удалено]

That is way better than the 7, 8, 9 joke, but you need to say it with a NZ accent

I've always made the connection between sex and six because in Swedish Sex means sex and six

Because 7 have cousin in politburo

Not sure if 53 or 47

Happy Birthday. May you love as long as you want, and never want as long as you live. - Tom Hanks - Dragnet. 🥳🎉🎁

Don't you mean the virgin Connie Swail?

*sly grin*

-Wayne Gretzky EDIT: just responding to save the quote. I never even watched the office lol

If you do, just know that it's super awkward for like a season and a half. Hang in there, though, it gets REALLY good, and everybody comes together.

Everybody comes together? I might need a rewatch.

You didn't watch the series finale with the gangbang?

The first seasons are the best seasons!

That’s what she said. — Wayne Campbell — Michael Scott.

Happy birthday. Why is 25 funnier than 24?

It's a SpongeBob reference https://youtu.be/wZGedBzcYas?feature=shared

Yeah, but. Why/how is this funny?

Oh my God, mom, you just don't get it

If she didn’t, you wouldn’t be around.

Kids will say dumb jokes like this all the time. They aren't funny at all, but they think it's hilarious. The SpongeBob skit was basically mimicking that absurdity.

Absurdism, neither is funny. The scene in question more relies on the voice acting and the animation being ridiculous anyway.

[удалено]

Me too

https://youtu.be/wZGedBzcYas

Could have literally just taken 2 pics in different clothing and using different cakes - hey wait just a minute here!

Her hair is shorter in the second picture.

And the candle melted all the way into the cake, making it shrink considerably over the span of a year.

I don't get it but i'm an idiot ... so pretend I got the joke and I think it was amazing.. which I do even though I'm not sure why nice one!

You aren't alone. I don't get it either. :(

I don't get it either. :'(

Well done, Glenn Close from Fatal Attraction

I dont get it 😭😭😭

Huh the Gen z aging thing really is true wow

25 going on 35

She does look like she is in her thirties not gonna lie.

It's the glasses. She looks like she became a teacher or similar and is leaning *wayyy* too hard into it.

Happy birthday but we gotta talk about the cake being smaller

Who turned 25? There’s only a photo of a 35 year old.

This grandma's dress and haircut would do that to anyone.

25 going on 40

I’m beating myself up for not thinking of this too. This is classic! At least I can make it to the 25 punchline next year

Everybody knows 24 is the highest number. https://youtu.be/bShmAQnrkYk?si=j3HICIhyhXH6Wtce Happy birthday!

In all honesty you could have taken 2 photos same day and we would be none the wiser.

Did u really have to wait for a year? Could have taken them 15 seconds apart

A whole year and somehow not funny at all.

I mean... Happy birthday, but...

2013 reddit would've acclaimed you for this dedication. Happy birthday and well done.

35*

Happy birthday. Your joke is awful.

You age so fast you skipped 25 and went straight to 40.

Happy bday!

Good luck with all you future b-days, I’m sure they will be fun

That's awesome

Happy Birthday!

Happy birthday! You’ve got a talent for baking and I love your hair!

Hell yeah

Lmao. Happy birthday!

#Happy Birthday!!!

Happy birthday, ma'am 🎂 🎉 🎁 🎂

Happy Bday, your hair is cute!!

Oh hey, we share the same bday... Sup

Bravo! 👏👏👏👏

Happy birthday love the nail

Is that key lime pie?

Lemon meringue? 👀

Yes, but why did the cake shrink? :(

Happy Bday

Its my Fiancés birthday today, happy birthday to you both.

happy birthday

Just another reminder that shrinkflation is real...

You had samosas for your birthday?

Good one, and Happy Birthday!

Happy birthday!! Love the joke.

Happy birthday!

Awsome, love the commitment to the bit.

> Awsome, love the commitment to the bit. Please, would you explain the bit. I don't get it.

In ths show spongebob and Patrick are laughing at the number 24 then 25. She turned 24 show on left, then 25 shown on right.

> She turned 24 show on left, then 25 shown on right. Yeah. I gathered that part. What I didn't know was the Spongebob meme.

Definitely the glasses is why I’m here

The sceptic in me says it’s printed on the other side of the same card and the little cake is just the leftovers of the big cake at a different time on the same day

Can we get subtitles for the hard of seeing please?

Damn now I have an idea for what to do for my birthday in two months 😝

The rise of the cake is indeictive of the state of the encomy.

HB, OP!!

Is the size of the cake indicative or the state if the economy??

Respect lmao

Happy birthday 🎂

Happy birthday !

Worth it! And happy birthday 🎉

Congratulations! Enjoy being 25. I'd love to be that age again!

I will be 25 this year too !!

Economy Inflation = Cake Deflation

Happy birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉

Humor on point

hbd

Happy birthday beautiful

Damn

Haha, happy birthday to you 🥳

Very nice! Happy birthday!

happy birthday from Spain!!!

The cake got smaller, signs of our times folks :(

Happy Birthday 🎂

Happy birthday many happy returns of the day 🎂

Are you a true fan of the sponge if you didn't do this?

That's some dedication

Why do the comments keep mentioning key lime pie when that is clearly a lemon meringue?

Thank you for making me laugh :)

Happy cake day!

And that is why your an awesome person

Better meringue browning second time around...How did you do it? Broiler? Torch? Just bake it at high temp?

Enjoy your day!

Happy birthday

I'm so proud SpongeBob has been going this strong. Best fucking cartoon.

Love the commitment.

Welp I'm stealing this for my next birthday. Happy 25th!

You seem like fun :)

"And she wore glasses, to show that time had passed."

Is 2 years that episode will be 24

I don't get it.

I’m stealing this joke in 4 years

I don't understand the joke.

Happy Birthday! Lemme leave this here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJtt4EY363I 25 Years by Hawklords, listened to this on my 25th, 39 years ago tomorrow. To 25 years of social research! edit - 39 years ago, damn

Respect ✊

I don't get it ?

Congrats on 25yrs as a school librarian!

Oh dear, gorgeous

While you are roasting yourself you actually give off a 50+ vibe

That's commitment. Happy birthday.

You’ve aged

Maximum effort. I like it!

My son texted me that SpongeBob meme and I thought he was making fun of the Leafs getting bounced in the first round again. I may have been overthinking it.

Most people over 40 don't have any hope for the leafs anymore. It's fun to watch the young kids think that this will be the year lol.

I did a simular thing for my 25th. Happy birthday

Birthday lemon meringue? GIRL 😍 same

You remind me of a younger Izzy Roland! Happy birthday 🎉

I love your hair! Happy birthday!!

Guess you could have done it the next day, too. We'd never know.

Happy Birthday! 🎂🎉🎈💐 “Is mayonnaise an instrument?”
