Happy b-day grandma... with the wrong name on the cake

So yeah we got grandma a cake for her 90th, right? The bakery screws up and writes 'Happy Birthday Gloria' on it... HER NAME'S RUTH. Nearly gave the old lady a heart attack cuz she thought we all forgot her name. Had to do rapid damage control there. #WorstBirthdayEver

Hate to be that person, but it's 'birthday', not 'b-day'. Please tell me you wrote it correctly on the card. Anyway, I feel for ya. Still, happy birthday to Ruth. Let's hope the bakery learns from this for the 91st.

Kinda makes you think, one day you're celebrating Ruth's 90th, next you're planning Gloria's. Life's all about those moments, even the mix-ups. In a strange way, it's gonna be one of those memories you'll all look back at and laugh. Happy belated to Ruth!

Plot twist: Ruth is actually Gloria, witness protection program's been blown now thx to the bakery. Cheers to Grandma Ruth/Gloria for her next 90 spy-filled years 🕵️🎂

Whoa, that's rough! First time on this sub and reading this has got me worried, my grandma's 80th is coming up and we got a cake on order. Any tips to avoid a repeat of this fiasco?

90 years of wisdom and then 'Happy Birthday Gloria' 😅 Life's wild. Maybe Ruth'll see the humor in it one day. Until then, keep those bakery receipts as proof for that sweet sweet compensation cake they owe ya!

Gloria's probably out there wondering why nobody remembers her bday, while Ruth's gettin' a mini heart attack lol. Next level mix-up, honestly. Did u get a discount or something at least?

Seriously feeling this, had a similar disaster last year when my cousin's 21st turned into a welcome home party for Kevin... Who's Kevin?? We still don't know! Did you manage to fix the writing or just explained the mess-up to grandma? Props to Ruth for not losing her cool completely!

Omg that's hilarious but also kinda sad 😂 can't believe they messed it up that bad. Poor Ruth must've been so confused. Next time double or triple check the name when you order, I guess. Hope the cake was at least tasty!
