Remember Paz? He’s the guy who crashed Paris Hilton’s party and stole her $2000 birthday cake a few days ago. Turns out, there was still one more adventure for Paz and his confectionary contraband.
And you’re not going to believe what he did with it…

Bravo!

Copy & paste this:
I bet Paris is amused. Great finish!
that’s what she said >:D
sorry couldn’t resist
she loves those happy endings……………………cause she gives a lot of people happy endings…………………….
+1 internetz for you
She could give me a happy ending any time she wanted … O YEAH !!!
+1? He got +1000 for the first part of the escapade. For this brilliant finale, he gets +1 million, and the rest of the internets bows to him, conceding that he currently reigns.
That’ll do, pig!
he PWNS the internets now!
He can join me, chuck norris, raptor jesus, and the memes at the top now!
when will she give herself a happy ending?
soon enough, my friend. there are operatives in her house as we speak, replacing her hairdryer with a gun that looks like a hairdryer
Paris wouldn’t know the difference between a hairdryer and a real gun, you don’t need the disguise.
Wouldn’t that mean she would shoot herself in the head?
That would be a shame.
Thanks, there’s a bit of my desk missing now, and I have a headache. =/
Awesome ending. Wonder how good it was?
It was worth $3,200 It SHOULD be good.
Actually, it was probably worth $3000 because it LOOKED good. I’m sure it tasted ok as well, just not up to millionaire standards! They were just going to throw it out.
it was PRICED at $3,200…what was it worth? There is the cost of ingredients, and the value of the artistry (because it did look pretty good) but the value of the artistry is SOLELY determined by the artist, and what they think they can charge….THAT is not the same as “worth”…
betty crocker
Omg he gave it to the homeless? That is so sweet! Paris was just gonna throw it away.
Yeah I agree! I’m glad the cake came to some use
Selflessly giving cake to the homeless is way better than letting some dumb whore stare at it and then throw it away. This dude is awesome.
I whole heartedly agree. Excellent ending to an excellent story.
Quiet honestly, I am suprised that Paris/many other uber rich people would throw away a tax write off like that.
It was a smart move on his part, as well. Now she can’t even be mad at him for stealing it, because he gave it to the poor. If she got mad about that, people would all think she’s a b!+ch… I mean, more than they already do.
This guy is the Robin Hood of Cakes!
hahahahahaha plus 12 internetz for making me laugh. now im broke of internetz.
or eat it, then throw it up after.
this! bwahaha
ZING!
Aye – there’s been a lot of people moaning about “Stealing is wrong, always
”, but I’m pretty sure this gives him a solid grasp of the moral highground.
No, it protects him against billionaire retribution. What’s she gonna do now; sue him and look like a major douchebag? Break his kneecaps and look like an überdouchebag? I don’t think his motives were as altruistic as some think, but it was still a really cool stunt.
You sir, are full of win.
BRAVO! Indeed…
AMAZING!!! i love it!! awasome way to end xxx
this is beyond awesome.
WIN is an understatement.
EPIC WIN?
(AllGreat, do NOT start the argument again)
epic cake tale IMO
My kids will fall asleep to the epic cake tale.
Someday, when I have kids, they too will know the epic cake tale.
WIN! I hope she sees this.
While I agree it’s kind of funny, how has this guy not been approached about the fact that he STOLE something valued at $2000? I mean, take the celebrity and all her baggage out of it. This guy is a thief. He stole something that was not his, something that someone else paid for. And while ultimately it looks like he did something nice with it, I can’t believe he’s advertising it. Paris’s lawyers know exactly who to go to now for reparations. Everyone jumps all over Lindsey Lohan for stealing a necklace, but because this guy wasn’t a celebrity and instead stole from a celebrity, that makes it ok? Total double standard.
she was going to just throw it away, so i think taking it was the right decision
Add to that… in practical terms there is no way Paris will push charges because it will be bad publicity for her. Imagine to try and jail/fine a guy for feeding overpriced cake to poor people. PR disaster.
heh…let them eat cake?
Well played, sir/madam. Well played.
Does anyone actually know who he is though? His actual name? (because I doubt it’s actually Paz)
And I think the police have better things to do than arrest someone for stealing pre-garbage from a rich celebrity who donated it to a homeless shelter.
You’d be surprised at the levels the police will go to.
I’m not sure about the laws in America, but in Britain it’s illegal to steal someone’s trash (I know, it’s crazy), even if it’s food that you eat. There is currently a case in court where a woman found some waffles outside a supermarket in the bin, so she took them home and ate them. She was caught on camera and is now being charged, even though the waffles were to be trashed.
And it doesn’t matter what was going to happen to the cake. He stole it, and although I’m pleased with what he did in the end, I don’t think what he did was legal.
In America once the trash is put on the street for collection it’s up for grabs. That’s why you’ll see cops going through suspects’ garbage.
Not true, and not true (I’m pretty sure):
1. In CA trash is not up for grabs if it’s in a personal (not public) trash can. This is why it’s illegal for homeless people to collect aluminum cans out of trash cans in neighborhoods, but they can collect from the beach and park cans.
2. I’m pretty sure I remember from law school that cops can’t dig through your trash until after it’s been collected and commingled by the trash collector. But I took criminal law a long time ago and I could be wrong.
and robin of luxley was british…..
In Canada, once it hits the curb its fair game, Even if it is your personal information. Now I know this wasn’t in the dumpster but I bet its hard to convince a judge to convict someone on stealing trash in the US. Plus imagine the bad press. I personally would never shop at a store that pressed charges against a person taking waffles from a dumpster either.
Trash is NOT “fair game” in Canada — in Toronto, it is illegal to take someone’s trash — once it hits the curb, it belongs to the municipality (and that is law)!
robert.
Not so sure about that. After all, Paris and her manager(s) are probably pretty glad about the extra (free) publicity they get from this.
well I think of it as more of a Robin Hood kind of story. It’s better that it goes to the homeless and they enjoy it rather than just sitting on a table for display and most of it being wasted
I can see where you’re coming from, but take into account that they weren’t even going to eat it; they said they would throw it away. Effectively, that makes it garbage (albeit expensive garbage) and he can legally take it.
But if it is still in her kitchen and not yet in the trashcan, it was not grabage at the time of the theft.
Also what right does he have to go inte her home and take her garbage? She might have other uses for it. Like a compost for example.
Compost, really? and he had an invitation. The guy will not be chased by the cops, he stole expensive garbage and gave it to the poor.
Here in Colombia is legal to take someone else’s trash, it is even good because poor people recollects it and sells it to recycling centers to win some money
Actually, until it’s in the can on the curb, he can’t legally take it. He asked someone, not Paris, what was going to happen to the cake. The guy said probably throw it out. It’s possible Paris had a plan for the cake. But even that’s irrelevant. Even if you work in a restaurant and they’re about to throw out food at the end of the night, you can’t just take it. Hell, half the time, your manager can’t even tell you to take it. It has to be thrown out. I worked in a purse store and old collections had to be cut up and thrown away. We couldn’t even save a freaking handbag from the dumpster without the threat of being charged with theft. Thankfully, my manager was able to get the company to okay donating them to charity for poor women so they could look professional on interviews; but we still couldn’t take them. If we wanted them, we had to pay. There were alot of dumpster dives for the workers ever couple of months.
You are right. And what you describe is one of the many things that are wrong in our society. Same goes for food: Supermarkets that throw away produce at the end of the day. And it’s illegal to go dumpster dive for it. That’s sick.
Absolutely agree! It’s sick and just proves again that it’s always about the money, never about people.
Hrm. I heard that the reason for this rule at supermarkets/restaurants is that if someone takes something out of a bin, eats it and becomes sick, the party who threw it out are liable for damages (negligence). This is to stop lawsuits. I have no idea if this is true, or an urban legend though.
Nope, thants not why it’s illegal. Many people try to live like this (They’re called freegans) and the food that is thrown out is always fully packaged, and in date, it’s only thrown out because of stock rotation. I’m sure it’s only illegal so that people aren’t able to get “something for nothing, but if you’re willing to rummage through a bin for food, I’d say fair play, take what you can find!
Tis true, actually. I worked at a certain ham production company, and when we came across a spoiled ham, we had to throw if into the dumpster and then pour bleach on it, after marking it with a sharpie that it was unfit to eat. The reason is that if someone were to dumpster dive and eat it and get sick, they could sue the company I worked for, unless the food was properly labled as unfit.
This is easy to figure out: it’s based on incentives. If the staff could buy things that were being thrown out, their incentive to sell things would be replaced by an incentive to avoid selling things so that they themselves could get them cheap.
Thus the system you describe is, rather than stupid, exquisitely tuned to human nature.
TL;DR
I guess I’ve been lucky that every restaurant I’ve worked at (and been a manager) we’ve always found a way to donate leftovers to shelters. Health code says you must throw out food that’s been sitting out after a certain amount of time – but if collectors come in before said time it’s perfectly fine and legal. I’ve also let my employees take home left over food or given it to friends.
TL;DR – “Even if you work in a restaurant and they’re about to throw out food at the end of the night, you can’t just take it. Hell, half the time, your manager can’t even tell you to take it. It has to be thrown out. ”
Yes you can, yes they do, and no it doesn’t.
I can say from first hand experience that there are restaurants whose company policy states that no manager is permitted to give employees food, even if it can’t be sold to customers, and anything prepared for the day that won’t keep overnight must be disposed of.
At the restaurant my roommate works for, however, where this *is* the policy, reinforcement of the policy is somewhat spotty, and depends on the general manager’s stance, whether the cameras are working, and whether someone wants to risk their job to let someone take home something.
On another note, let us all recall the Disney employee who got fired for drinking expired milk that was to be thrown out? x_x
I work at a bookstore and the same kind of thing happens; when books need to get thrown out (aargh!) not only do the covers need to be stripped, but the books get torn up and thrown straight in the bin. I’ve asked my boss a couple times, but she says that it needs to happen. I never really understood the reasoning she gave me–I was too busy cringing at the sight of it all. Couldn’t take a coverless book, cos then it’d be considered theft. Painful.
I really don’t understand celebrities. What a waste of cake. I’m even happier that the guy did this. SO funny!
He was not even invited to the party so he was already breaking the law by entering what I’m guessing was a home without the owner’s knowledge or permission.
Take from the rich, give to the poor. Known story.
He stole it because someone told him they would throw it away.
No. It is not because he is NOT a celebrity that stole from a celebrity. It is because he took something that was going to be trashed anyway and then did something GOOD with it, by giving it to people who go hungry everyday. It is a real-life Robin Hood story. It would have been different if Paris and her ilk had planned on eating the cake. But to spend that much money on a cake, then let it go to waste when there are people going hungry is just ridiculous. The worst part of this whole scenerio is that the money Paris used to pay for that cake could have feed those same homeless for close to a month if she had had the mind to do that instead of spending the money on something she wasn’t planning on ever eating anyway.
Weeeelllll…. it’s iffy. I’m thrilled to read he donated it, that’s fabulous. However, he asked some guy what they were going to do with it who said probably throw it out. If he’d ASKED if he could take it and donate it to a food bank, it’s quite possible it would be given to him happily at the end of the night.
He *did* steal it, even if it was GOING to be thrown out, it hadn’t been yet.
That said, I wouldn’t want to see him charged with it, especially since it turned out so well.
Um, yeah. He’s like Robin Hood… but with cake.
Dude – they were throwing out the cake!! He just brought it home – security even watched him carry it out. lmao!
Follow the original Failbook post
That’s what I was going to say. They watched him walk out with it, watched him put it in the car. If they had any intention of stopping him they could have!
It’s okay because he’s Robbin Hood.
It’s a f*cking cake…not something she was really going to miss and report stolen. If you saw the other posting, she had like 3 cakes. I am sure she would be thrilled with him for his stunt. Geeze..get over yourself KoS.
You are right. I think we should raise money to compensate P Hilton and L Lohan for the terrible sufferings which they have to endure due to the total lack of moral standards in our society. I also think we should attack the lower classes, first with bombs and rockets destroying their homes, and then when they run helpless into the streets, mowing them down with machine guns.
We all know these views aren’t popular, but I have never courted popularity.
Dude, I concur.
What homes?
I love you. Even though you forgot to mention the “release the vultures” part.
Hehe I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed that monty python reference
(Also, did you know that 90% of British housewives can’t tell the difference between whizzo butter and this dead crab?)
You are a very sad petty person if this is what you thought of. He gave it to homeless people ffs. And I bet Paris appreciates the PR it has generated for her. If the cake was going to get chucked in the garbage anyway, then why not feed a few hungry mouths. You fail, douchebag.
I don’t think anyone’s that bothered, to be honest.
Imagine if they gave her a new perfectly fine dog but she did not want it. So they decided they would just put it to sleep, and someone like Paz wanted to rescue the dog before that happened without the correct permission because that would be against regulations. Would you want that too? Imagine a puppy crying ;( Now think of huge perfectly fine cake being thrown out but instead rescued, now imagine there is cute puppy crying on it. Would you rather it get thrown out then used? Some rules were meant to be broken.
And then, imagine that Paz takes the dog/puppy to the homeless shelter and feeds him to the homeless people.
nice…
^ lmao
^ THIS
so is he some sort of P.E.T.A. activist but for cakes?
It shouldn’t really be considered stealing if they were just going to throw it away anyways.
“This guy is a thief. He stole something that was not his, something that someone else paid for.” – And he gave it to the poor.
Kinda like a modern-age Robin Hood then? Do you really think Paris’ going to sue this guy for stealing her cake and giving it to the homeless? It’ll just worsen how people think of her.
Also, U mad?
As bad as this guy is for stealing, feeding the cake to the homeless people saved him from possible prosecution. If Paris or her entourage were dumb enough to press charges, the media would probably end up destroying her. It’s best for her to just leave this alone.
Dude, he just took something that was going to get thrown away anyways.
It’s only theft if someone files a report. I haven’t seen any reports filed by Hilton yet. No double standards here….yet
it all depends if paris wants to press charges, no? well it’s better than taking her cake out of the dumpster and being useless.
They were throwing it out. Once something’s been thrown out, it’s fair game (which is also why you’re never meant to throw out anything with personal information on it).
You can’t really compare the two. Lohan has a criminal history and is still on parole (I could be wrong, could be probation – I don’t pay that much attention to this stuff), meaning if she does ANYTHING wrong, they’re obligated to nail her to the wall for it.
Besides, the value of the cake was in question from the start. Paz threw out the $2k number, while OMG! had a lower price tag until AFTER the birthday publicity (and the original story wiped off the face of the planet) before upping it to $3200.
But, it wasn’t VALUED at that much after the party. That may have been the COST of the thing, but not the VALUE. So, there’s no way in hell a judge would waste taxpayer money debating the value of baked goods in a courtroom to warrant theft. He’d throw the case out faster than caterers with a rich girl’s 3rd giant cake.
Let’s not forget no one’s really heard of this guy until now. It’s entirely possible he’s in league with her publicity agents anyway. Either way, this guy wins at life. Yet, I find it oddly convenient they “suddenly” show up at a homeless shelter to serve cake with cameras present. They needed help with that and while I agree it could have taken this long to throw that together with the shelter administrators, it still seems a little too easy.
As for Lohan, I think the judge is out to get her.
I swear to god I thought you were Drongo, and I was about to say that he had gone mad! (Or had come to his senses, your choice.)
I don’t see how this is good PR for Paris. The story shows she’s a wasteful, spoiled rich girl. If she’d driven the cake to the homeless shelter herself or arranged for it to be delivered of her own volition, that would be good PR. The fact that someone had to steal it from under her nose and then sneak it to a homeless shelter is pretty bad PR, if you ask me.
It’s the classic story of Robin Hood — stealing from the rich and giving to the poor…
lolwat. he was at a birthday party and it was something Paris didn’t care about. it’s not like he went in there and stole her dog. he took something that was bought for his (and all the other guests) consumption. that’s like saying you could arrest him for sitting at the party and eating the whole thing himself. I mean really.
tl;dr
Yeah, I’m pretty sure it’s illegal. Who cares? This guy’s a bamf. If Paris has any class, she should *support* him – and so far, it at least looks like she’s not suing him (which is good enough).
And he drives a CT-2000.
Who cares if it was valued at $2,000? All the more reason for it to be stolen and fed to people who need it, if you ask me. Do you know how much money Paris Hilton had even before she was famous-for-no-reason? Enough to buy your life. Stealing this cake from her was like the equivalent of stealing the piece of toilet paper that falls off my shoe when I come out of the bathroom.
What’s with all this moralistic crap that never takes context into account? If I steal a piece of bread because I am hungry, that is not the same as Lindsey Lohan stealing a necklace. This guy stealing a cake from self-entitled twit like Paris Hilton (who probably didn’t even notice it was gone until she sobered and got a text message about it from some less-famous, self-entitled debutante) and then feeding it to people who don’t have food, is not the same as Winona Ryder stealing a dress.
Anyone who would spend $2,000 on a cake when people are suffering the way they are right now deserves to have it stolen.
It was going in the garbage. No different than dumpster diving, but he got to it before $2000 worth of food was destroyed. Doesn’t matter which celeb or non-celeb it was, they were just throwing out $2000 worth of edible food.
That just makes me ill every time I think about it. Plenty of families and plenty of people hungry right now.
Point being, it’s not stealing to remove someone’s garbage for them.
Paris Hilton is a first-class bi***.
I have never liked her and personally, I think this is bloody hilarious.
Also, I read somewhere that she won’t press charges( blah blah blah) and that she got a SECOND cake for compensation for the one stolen, and this one had her fugly face on it.
Paz is a Robin Hood(hehe, Robert hood) of our time and should be congratulated. He took something that wasn’t going to be used and put it to good use(and, he had fun doing it. DOUBLE WIN!). Hopefully future celebs at their parties will take this into account and skip the “having it stolen” step and give all of their extra food to homeless shelters.
I hope paris gets ran over by a transit, hit by lightning and then eaten by wolves.
Can you tell I hate her?
Kudos to you, Paz! Do it again some time, will ya?
STEAL!? He didn’t steal it! It must have fallen into his pocket… somehow…
Unless Paris or her lawyers press charges, there will be no repercussions.
And, since he took a cake destined for the trash and fed homeless people with it… Paris would look like an even bigger douchebag than she already does if she dared to press charges.
Even if charges are pressed, someone will bail this dude out in a second for the act of charity after the fame this story is taking on. If I were a lawyer, I’d take the case pro-bono solely for the fame the case would no doubt take on as soon as it went to trial.
Again… +1000 internet winz for this guy. Good for him.
Well, if it’s true she had a second one made in compensation, the party doing the compensating could sue the thief for the cost of the replacement.
IANAL
Yeah, uh, have you noticed the double standard when it comes to the law and celebrities? I’d guess no.
*cough*troll*cough*
Yes, it makes it okay. He was a regular dude, she was rich. That makes it ok. He stole something that a rich whore was going to throw away. That makes it doubly ok.
He stole something from a rich whore and gave it to the poor.
HOW MUCH MORE OK COULD IT POSSIBLY GET? THERE IS NO DOUBLE STANDARD, I WILL ALWAYS SALUTE PEOPLE STEALING FROM THE HILTON FAMILY, SO WILL MOST OF THE INTERNETS.
cake, for the win!
How come this is on failbook instead of Win!?
because there is no such thing as WINbook??
and I’m happy this cake wasn’t a lie!
Damn you! I wanted the lie reference!
Well, she kinda was intending to throw it away, so why couldnt he just not take it and give it to people like the Leprechaun?
This guy is totally my hero.
I SO like this guy!!!! He is SO awesome!!!
This is so many awesome.
KoS- she was going to throw it away- so he took it off her hands. I used have an ice cream shop and always let the employees take all the ice cream and cakes that were getting ready to expire. Not stealing.
when i grow up, i want to be just like that cake.
What? Carved up and fed to the homeless?…
Getting eaten by over 100 hobos?
Sitting clothe-less on a kitchen table for a photoshoot?
Be photo-shopped into the arms of a bunch of guys?
anywhere near Paris Hilton????
rather be the cake in her mouth?
Paz for the WIN. Paris Hilton is waste of oxygen. It absolutely does not matter that it was her cake to do with as she pleased. The fact that this event happened at all is one giant victory for the species. Taking away the ignored confection and turning it into a nice treat for disadvantaged people–EPIC WIN.
kos, suck it up, it was going to get thrown out. At least it went to a bunch of people who actually needed it, rather than paying for something that was going to get thrown out.
Do homeless people really need cake? Donating the money that was spent on the cake so that they could have some fresh fruit and vegetables would have been much better for everyone involved–except Paz.
Wow – depressing. The money was already spent, and it’s supporting a business somewhere – yay for the economy. Fruits and vegetables may have nutritionally been better, but I imagine the cake did a lot to raise spirits. Are you one of those people who just like being contrary?
I absolutely disagree with the idea that I am contrary.
“Eggs! Eggs are in cake! And milk! Oh goody! And wheat! That’s nutrition!”
–Bill Cosby, Himself
Dad is great! Givin’ us the chocolate cake!
Win!
Unfortunately, the value of the cake was nil by the time it was stolen. He couldn’t have sold the cake and used the money on fruits & veggies. It was still edible (albeit, covered in fondant – yuck!) but he would have had to preserve it and auction it. Not sure it would have made that much right now. Maybe after she’s dead it would go for a chunk of change. So, better to have full tummies now with an indulgence they probably never see, than risk selling a toss-out cake from a washed-up pseudo celebrity’s 30th birthday party to some low-life stalker.
Some dumbass would pay for Paris Hilton’s used cake. Have you ever *seen* eBay?
Like that guy who paid 1000$(? can’t remember the right amount) to get MW3 a few days early.
Even though I don’t think he did all this for totally selfless reasons
, it’s pretty damn awesome.
I posted this on the Facebook page. I’m a cake designer myself and I am not sure that he could have escaped with the cake IN TACT without that middle tier coming crashing down on him while he ran. The support they used to hold up the cake is a good one. I believe they used an SPS (separator plate system), which has plastic plates under the tiers and held up by plastic dowels that are inserted into the tier below. But even the best structural engineering can’t hold up a cake while it is gripped and carried on its side.
If you mean “intact”, there’s no indication he fled with the cake on its side. He said previously he picked it up and carried it smartly out of there.
This guy is my hero. Real life Robin Hood!
Paris was just going to do a scarf and barf anyway… good for the cake thief!
THE PENS HAD IT lmao
Remember that it was a waiter who told him it would “probably” be thrown away. No official person said it actually would be. Regardless, it hadn’t been yet and therefore could still be considered property that was stolen. I’m glad someone got to enjoy it, but wouldn’t doubt if her people somehow managed to file for charges over it.
Four hours later and still no sign of Drongo. Sweeeet.
Turns out the cake was actually worth $3200! AND had absinthe mixed into the batter (which explains the lucid artwork band on it, which i had my suspicions about), too bad for the homeless guys who might have been on the twelve-step program lol. I hope he doesn’t get charged.
skid row – greatest band ever
Fact is it was a stunt and on well done at that. He did steal the cake but in reality it wouldn’t be worth the effort to go after him for it. They’d be more likely to push him into stardom then anything else. If they go after him he becomes a modern folk hero, gets interviews, and more. If he does well with them he could pull off a movie deal or even catapult himself into a new career under the lights.
Excellent! I’m glad he didn’t just smash it or something
I now respect this guy. Very cool.
Is it just me or is it rediculous that you can even buy a cake for $2000?? I like cake as much as the next person but $2000 for a cake is just stupid.
Did he steal the cake? Yes. Should he be punished for stealing it? Yes. Did he steal it and make use of it in the best possible way? Definately. Should his punishment, in light of his charity with the cake, amount to more than maybe an apology to Paris for stealing her cake? No way. Should he also be commended for his actions? Maybe even honored with a sort of award or something for his kindness? Totally. I say we declare a holiday for this! Start coming up with names, people!
Keep it simple; call it Cake Day.
Pazturday! And to celebrate, we eat cake.
Or better yet give cake to people. Kinda like he did
^ this
February 22 shall be called Paz Cakemas. To celebrate, we give out slices of cake to random people.
he should not have to apologize to her! She was going to throw it away! She should apologize for even thinking of throwing it away.
That’s just what people who can’t brush their teeth need. Lots of sugar.
Lighten up. How many birthday cakes do you think they see? Have you ever been homeless? Do you know the sick feeling of hopelessness that washes over? This is a one-time treat they may not have again. A moment of happiness in someone’s life is worth a little tooth decay, y’know? Besides, there are groups that hand out pre-pasted one-time use toothbrushes at those shelters, as well as real toothbrushes and toothpaste for residents.
Get involved a little bit, bro. Make a difference.
This!
“Make a difference” as in “help the homeless eat healthy”, or as in “spout holier-than-though nonsense about toothbrushes on a web forum”? You know, just for clarity’s sake.
Can’t brush their teeth? Just because someone is homeless or gets food from a shelter doesn’t mean *they* (we) can’t brush *their* (our) teeth. Some of *them* (us) can even read and write, shocking as that may seem.
I have this awesome idea: let them decide, instead of some random kid with no comprehension of the fact that need for food > need for shiny teeth. If they decide “Oh noes, I dun like the sugar feeling on my teeth
”, then that’s their own decision. If not, STFU and GTFO.
Sugar and fat is excellent when you may go days without food and need something to provide calories to burn. You could go out and bring high-quality protein and vegetables, but there is absolutely no reason to waste that much food just because it offends the moral sensibilities of someone who’s probably never been homeless or very hungry.
Awesome!
Good for him.
All these comments, and not one has mentioned the obvious?
LET THEM EAT CAKE
-marie antoinette
dude it’s the title of Paz’s note… already covered
inb4thecakeisalie
I don’t get why everyone thinks this guy is so awesome. He stole something and gave it to the homeless. Big deal. Why don’t people praise the men and women who take the time out of their days to volunteer at these shelters and actually make a difference? This guy’s a fame seeking loser who’s trying to make the most out of his very quickly diminishing 15 minutes of fame.
You make one good point: Why don’t people praise the men and women who take the time out of their days to volunteer at these shelters and actually make a difference?
That doesn’t diminish what he did, despite his motivations. It’s still cool that he did it–he didn’t have to.
Exactly.
No, it’s not cool. He stole stuff, and then used it to build up his own several minutes of fame. And then, after he was done, he discarded it.
If you read the first part of the story from yesterday, there were apparently two cakes. He asked a waiter when the red one would be served and the waiter said it was probably going to be discarded. So technically stealing, practically more like salvage. By the way, a lot of catering companies and restaurants do give away leftovers to homeless shelters/soup kitchens.
if stealing a cake is all this guy is ever known for, i will be happy.
…discarded it to hungry people instead of letting it be thrown away in a disgusting selfish display of greed and waste. I take it you’re one of those folks who don’t realise the difference between legality and morality? Illegal or not, to say what he did was wrong is laughable.
Dude. Win doesn’t even BEGIN to describe this guy. This does though:
Win ^ 9007 x double rainbow (2epic x 8)
But again, it only begins.
( 2epic x 8 )
sorry
The reason the cake was $3200 (not $2000) was because it was laced with ABSINTHE. Some of those homeless people were probably struggling/recovering alcoholicsm and this cake didn’t help them any LOL
Have you ever cooked with alcohol? It burns off. Even the strongest rum and the strongest absinthe – the bad stuff will cook off and you’re left with licorice cake. And fondant. Actually, this cake sounds pretty nasty now.
That’s a myth – it takes 3 hours of baking to eliminate all alcohol. If it was soaked in a glaze, the glaze could have up to 85% of its alcohol content after a brief cooking. However, if the cake wasn’t sealed up, odds are the alcohol would have evaporated by the next day. Still, just the flavor could be a trigger for an alcoholic.
sealed up like with layers of fondant? like the cake was? fact is he stole something that was valued at $3200. It was not thrown away nor did he ask if he could take it. HE stole it!
Are u serious Sharpie? I pray I’m stepping in ur troll.
There’s a feature on the internet called GOOGLE and if you click it’s “news” option and search Paris Hilton or even Absinthe, you can find the facts.
Look at the bright side: At least it wasn’t laced with arsenic or cyanide.
That’s so cool! Total WIN!
YAY!! Everybody wins!!
My brain hurts. You ppl all really need to the heck for sure. Do you all love Paris this much? Wow. Write a novel about it jeez
WTF…Dude, did you even read the post we are all commenting?
It’s about a guy who had crashed Paris Hilton’s birthday party, stole one of her cakes and served it to the homeless…
AND THAT’S DEFINITELY A WIN!!!
STOP EATING MY SESAME CAKE
*SEMEN
I don’t think that was real with Rocky. But I haven’t seen it in ages, so I may be wrong.
This was obviously a huge publicity stunt for a crappy musician. Now he’ll be famous, simply because people listen to whatever is shoved down their throats. Doesn’t anyone think this sets a dangerous precedent? Do something that makes it into the papers, and your inane boy band will take off.
there are no quotes that I can remember right now that are epic enough and still… wait one quote comes to mind. “believe in yourself who believes in you!” Kamina. I think he followed that advice perfectly.
let them eat cake
You win at life. Good game.
Am I the only one who wonders how that cake survived for so long without going bad?
Sugar is an excellent preservative.
That’s really nice of him. Good story to tell the Pazlets!
125 slices for 2000$…thats 16 bucks per slice…better auction that thing on ebay and buy 125 cakes to feed the homeless.
This man should get an award for this.
Stealing from the rich and giving to the poor.
Didn’t it have absinth in it….?
Yep
This Paz guy is like the new Robin Hood, haha! But with cake…
I was just thinking that! Steal from the rich and give to the poor.
Modern day Robin Hood. Awesome
Regardless of the moral argument(s), best cake story EVER. Period.
and so the pr gag continues.
“Hollywood Loser Steals Cake for Self Promotion”. Epic win? Seriously, where do you guys live?!
My parents’ basement. And you?
This is a classic example of a modern day Robin Hood. This story couldn’t have gone any better.
This dude is a legend.. In South Africa, if people DON’T steal your rubbish it’s considered weird so he’d be safe in SA.. Plus our police probably wouldn’t understand the crime involved and just be like dude, it’s cake.
Conditioned to people stealing mah rubbish..
3rd world country perspective.. Hmm. Feel so bad about living in a country where the don’t care if people steal your rubbish.. I put signs on the bag to warn if there’s broken glass..
If Paris Hilton had feelings, I bet she’d feel like a pretty epic heel right now. I seem to remember the cake was originally going to be thrown away. Instead, it went to brighten up over 100 poor peoples’ day. Awesome x infinity.
+2000 internets for Paz from me.
if this is a true story you are a modern day hero, I absolutely love that story
you. are. a. legend.
I say this is more than cool!!! Way to lift the finger to Paris who just throws her money aroind and buys cakes that get thrown away without anyone eating from them…. at least now people got to enjoy it
. There are too many hungry people in the world for us to think it is normal to just throw away perfectly good food!
Nathan Hale Reference FTW!!!! <3
No one here sees that this pie might be a lie?
seriously. the 103 people who don’t like this? wtf?! GTFOH. having a party that any joe could crash is the MOST SERVICE SHE HAS EVER DONE in this country.
He who be without sin cast the first troll!
Seriously everyone commenting on how the moral of the story is he stole it. Well, consider this little fact, each and everyone of you, commits a criminal offence each day. Why? Well because there are so many laws in the U.S. that it’s impossible to live on a day to day basis without breaking the rules. So please STFU moral blaggarts. Seriously, commenting on how it’s wrong to steal a cake?
If this is a criminal offence is debatable, since we’re talking about a perishable good, the worth is debatable. There are a miriad of factors that would declassify this to a non criminal offence. since it was to be served and it is consumed by one of the guests present… there you go you’d be off for a number of court days to get this settled, so all that over 3000 dollars, I think this will be thrown out so fast your head will spin.
Since we are debating about morally objectable actions, it’s all in the eye of the beholder. But, if you think about it for two seconds you would come to the conclusion that yes, it might be in the gray area what he did is not reprehensible. All the previous statements about throwing away and trash included. Even if it was not to be trashed and consumed at the party. Really? You have an objection to the taking of a cake from a party where there is an abundance of other ways to have a good time. Cake is not a main meal, it will not be missed nor is essential to a diet.
so everyone going on about stealing is wrong no matter what the context, get off your high horse and let’s see how you act in a situation when you’re down on your luck. Everything is so easy to judge from the comfort of your chair.
The people commenting on the diet of the homeless. Very paternalistic, those people have a choice, they decide if they eat cake or not. It is not up to you to decide for them if it’s the best choice to make. Do I take away your cola and Mac donalds? No, just because these people don’t have a toothbrush you think it apt to comment on the fruit and veg option. Really, so the people who don’t brush their teeth on a daily basis but eat sugar should be forbidden to have any. You are entitled to your opinion but I find it terribly egotistical to assume you know what’s best for people. Unless you are a social health worker who is actually handing out this food to the people and knows their condition, stfu.
TL;DR even if it’s a publicity stunt or for paz own glory, well played. If anything it comments on a society so bent on consumption and adherrance to rules, a little humanity every once in a while would do us good. In the end you will read in this what you want.
Thank you, fiddlesticks. The first line was awesome! The rest cured my insomnia. DOUBLE WIN!
20 second attention spans are what’s wrong with kids these days. I would rant more but this got boring.
Aww! That was so sweet!
Ouch. No pun intended.
I think it’s great that Paris contributed (unknowingly, lol) to the community.
I heard that the guy actually asked one of her handlers if he could have it and they said yes. It was supposedly the bakery/chef who made the cake that made a stink about it going to the homeless, didn’t think they deserved to eat his creation, would have rather it went into the trash. I also heard that the cake had absinthe in it too.
Get a quote of that, ruin the baker for life.
Awkward. thats my last name
I LOVE YOU, YOU ARE GOD OF INTERNET AND NONE SHALL SAY ELSE, YOU ARE FREAKING AWESOME !!!
+10947810518916347680943674301806743698 internets to you, plus my eternal thanks for makig my day so awesome-ish

Wow… No one’s said it yet. I’ll say it first:
The cake is a lie.
No WONDER it cost so much!
