I need *you* to vote for my birthday cake

My birthday is in one week. Falls on a Wednesday. Same day as a little show I like to call L O S T. Funny, I think the rest of America (and maybe the world), likes to call it the same thing. I never claimed to be original.

So, in honor of the show, my birthday, and my shameless allegiance to the man I believe is the crux of the most thought-out masterpiece on television, I’m holding a vote. I’m having a Desmond Hume cake this year, but am torn as to which picture to use. So I’m leaving it up to you. Whichever photo has the most votes will be the photo I use for my 26th birthday cake. Polls close Superbowl Sunday, though. So think (and vote) quickly.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

Candidate 1: Perplexed Desmond

Candidate 2: I’m not *really* stranded on an island Desmond

Candidate 3: How was I transported to Oklahoma Desmond

Candidate 4: Someone is terrifyingly obsessed with me Desmond

Candidate 5: My arms are smaller than they appear Desmond

Candidate 6: I can’t believe Costume thought I could pull this off Desmond

The Perot Slot: Even if you vote for this one, there’s no way I’m putting it on my cake

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

May the voting begin.

    No. 4 already looks like a cake, so I’d go with that one.

    I vote #6. It screams Color Me Badd.

  8. On January 28th, 2009 at 11:06 am, Sean said:

    #4! It would look great on white frosting. But you should photoshop the edges so they fade into white so it doesn’t look like a rectangular picture printed on a cake.

    #4. No question.

    #4. I really like numba 4, brotha!

    Perot or number 4….get you some

  12. On January 28th, 2009 at 12:19 pm, Chris Rice said:

    i’m going with #4…”someone is terrifyingly obsessed with me Desmond” for a couple of reasons:
    First, I KNOW you have tried to do your own pastel drawing of Desmond without so much success, and secondly…why would ANYONE be obsessed with Desmond? hmmm…

    ps…save me an eye…i wanna eat his eye…is that weird?

    my vote is numero 6. only because that picture gives validation to my question…”what the hell do you see in him?”

  15. On January 28th, 2009 at 3:08 pm, Kelly Walvoord said:

    #4…definitely! It almost looks like icing!

    “How Was I Transported to Oklahoma”

    #4 kinda scares me… looks to much like those Jesus paintings from my old Sunday School days. If he were wearing a white robe… he’d be a dead-ringer http://www.enlightenedbeings.com/pix/jesus.jpg

    Just not No. 3. There’s a bit to much openness in that one. And No. 4 pretty much rules

  19. On January 28th, 2009 at 4:46 pm, phil shay said:

    I’ll take #4 please…

  20. On January 28th, 2009 at 5:42 pm, Joey said:

    yeah, totally the last one. or 2-4.

  21. On January 28th, 2009 at 5:58 pm, Aaron said:

    Nothing says creepy more than a painted caked of a painted dude. #4.

  22. On January 28th, 2009 at 6:53 pm, Teresa said:

    candidate #4 ~ inappropriately named. It should be the Apostle Desmond. Or the Catholic Church getting an extreme makeover for their saints ‘Desmond’.

    #5…i actually think it already looks like he is painted with frosting.

    THE LAST ONE

    I don’t like how the links work.

  27. On January 29th, 2009 at 11:41 am, Gigi said:

    Totally Oklahoma Desmond. Aka #2. That would be hilarious on a bday cake. And, well, you’re from OK.

  28. On January 29th, 2009 at 12:13 pm, Jason DuMars said:

    #5! All the way. And make the arms out of tasty morsels.

  29. On January 29th, 2009 at 3:10 pm, Marc said:

    #4 – airbrushed, if possible. maybe with a wave too.

  30. On January 29th, 2009 at 6:46 pm, Daniel Cliett Bass said:

    DUH, 4! Then 2. Everything else is a waste of time.

    Handle yer biz, sister. Handle it.

    p.s. You’re sick for making me vote for this mess. I don’t even watch that show. It produces idolatry. I know, I know… I just lost stature in your eyes.

    #4 definitely #4. wish i could be there to partake in the goodness.

  32. On January 30th, 2009 at 12:18 am, Sonnie said:

    #6 please! Everyone needs a little chest hair on their cake. That’s how I like it anyway…

    obama!

  34. On January 30th, 2009 at 6:05 pm, Sarah said:

    I like the 2nd and 6th- my official vote is the 6th though- It would be SOOOOOOO funny if you chose the last one! lol I can’t wait to hear all about it- I wish I could be there!

  35. On February 1st, 2009 at 12:01 pm, Shelby said:

    ok, speaking as a pastry chef, this is my worst fear realized. That being said, if I had to choose I would go with #4 because really, if you’re obsessed enough to put his picture on a cake, why not go one step further and make it seem like you *drew* the picture. Wish I could be there to make you a birthday cake!

  36. On February 1st, 2009 at 12:18 pm, Stephanie said:

    If I had to vote and if you said you would put number 6 on it… I would vote 6… But since I cant… I will say 4… Cause that one is still super creepy… Happy Early Birthday!

  37. On February 1st, 2009 at 4:12 pm, Laura said:

    #4. Definitely. My hubby and I love Desmond. Pete talks in his accent all the time! Putting him on your cake is awesome! Happy Birthday!!!

    #4… sorry I’m late. :)
