Authorities in Egypt have arrested a pastry chef for making cupcakes with penis- and vulva-shaped icing decorations. The arrest came after photos of women eating the cupcakes at a private birthday party at a Cairo club were posted to social media.

    When will people learn that 'social media' is anything but.

    1. perlhaqr   4 years ago

      Stick with Antisocial Media. AKA 4chan. It's safer.

    2. The Encogitationer   4 years ago

      When will people learn that running a society according to the Puritanical dictates of Islam and its Abrahamic predecessors is not peaceful or compassionate?

      1. Mother's Lament   4 years ago

        Don't fool yourself into believing that Roman and Greek pagans were in actual fact any less sexually uptight, or that officially atheist countries have a history of being "peaceful or compassionate".

        1. Vernon Depner   4 years ago

          But right now, we're talking about Islam.

          1. Mother's Lament   4 years ago

            Pretty sure "Abrahamic predecessors" is referring to Christians and Jews... and maybe Zoroastrians if you want to quibble.

      2. cimad30791   4 years ago

          A: He's always either hanging around, pissed off, hard up, or in the hole. His closest neighbor is an asshole, two nuts follow him everywhere he goes, and his best friend is a cunt.

    Oh sure, but you hang things like those pictures in the British Museum and suddenly they're all important anthropological artifacts.

    1. Quo Usque Tandem   4 years ago

      First you have to established yourself on the intersectionality scale. Then call whatever you do "art;" that is how you get into museums nowadays.

  4. Don't look at me!   4 years ago

    That’s what happens when you bake the cake.

  5. NoVaNick   4 years ago

    Maybe the genitalia on the cupcakes weren’t circumcised and thus highly offensive to Islam.

    1. Unicorn Abattoir   4 years ago

      Can you provide a list of what isn't highly offensive to Islam? It would make everyone's life a lot easier.

      1. MatthewSlyfield   4 years ago

        {Empty Set}

        There you go.

      2. The Encogitationer   4 years ago

        What would make everyone's life easier is when they build Six Flags Over Mecca and Medina, turn all mosques into dance halls and skating rinks, and save readings of The Qu'ran for scary story times around the fire awhile camping.

        1. Unicorn Abattoir   4 years ago

          Six Flags Over Mecca

          DO NOT jump the line at that one.

      3. Mother's Lament   4 years ago

        Marrying nine year olds?

        1. Vernon Depner   4 years ago

          At least they man up enough to marry the little girls. The boys just get sodomized and thrown away.
