SPECTACULARLY preposterous.NSFW. (And don't think you can get away with sneaking a quick peek in your cube when no one's looking. There's a chance you'll laugh "OL" and attract co-worker attention.)
This very well may have pushed us to a new level of Internet ridiculousness.

Gross and dumb. I don't think you're hanging out on the same internet as the rest of us if this is considered entertaining .... posted by Arbac at 10:32 PM on July 17
Wasn't there a thread about farting on cakes on metafilter awhile back? posted by afu at 10:32 PM on July 17
OK, for those at work, who can't click on the link. This lady sat on a cake and farted. Actually, she sat on a cake, and the camera man made farting noises.
This, as it turns out, is the best of the web, because, sadly, the web turned to suck. posted by dirigibleman at 10:33 PM on July 17
I feel sorry for that girl, having to live the rest of her life with the knowledge that she made that video. posted by dirtynumbangelboy at 10:38 PM on July 17
If there's something that strikes you as more preposterously absurd, post it!
Here's the thing.
Sometimes 'preposterously absurd' is best of the web. E.g., salmon hentai, Ron Paul, or a bunny with a pancake on its head.
The rest of the time, it is really not.
I leave it as an exercise for the reader to figure out which category this post belongs in. posted by dirtynumbangelboy at 10:41 PM on July 17
Ah, oh well. I guess I've disgusted rather than amused. Apologies, serious elements of MetaFilter! posted by ignignokt at 10:42 PM on July 17

I sincerely hope that thread didn't, you know, cause this. posted by Caduceus at 10:43 PM on July 17
Haha, that makes three posts in a row that stink! This one is extra special though. (Dare I say its the frosting?) posted by iamkimiam at 10:44 PM on July 17
This would have sparked far more MeFi outrage had it been a plate of bacon instead. posted by andythebean at 10:47 PM on July 17
There. I said it. I'm not proud of it but I said it and I'm not taking it back. posted by Avenger at 10:57 PM on July 17 [2 favorites]
In terms of obscure and bizarre fetishes, this rates, maybe, in the top fifty, or even lower, considering the quality of model they got to do it.
If the only woman who will consent to take part in the video is a 200lb, forty-something immigrant from the former Eastern Block who's paid in crack, your fetish is really way out there.
To sum up: Your favorite fetish sucks. posted by Slap*Happy at 10:58 PM on July 17
Avenger, could you please remain on-topic, and not digress into your date last weekend?
i laughed, and now i am beginning the process of forgetting i ever saw that. which should be complete by the time i press 'post comment.' posted by facetious at 10:59 PM on July 17

Firstly, this is sort of awesome. I think. My instinct says this post isn't going to last, though, so everyone chug their beers and get ready to bounce.
Secondly, there used to be some sort of pervasive UseNet spam about farting on cakes. I feel like it may have had something to do with the Meow Wars. Either way, farting on cakes has been an internet meme before, for some ungodly reason, and I'm pleased to observe that it will probably never, ever go away, outlasting even the works of Shakespeare and quarterlife.
Thirdly, I once saw an article about the leading figure in fart pornography, and it was actually very interesting because the woman who is apparently this leading figure is actually a cunning, Machiavellian figure, who just so happens to have cornered the fart market. I wish I could find that article again, but not enough to actually actively search for it. So, I won't, and now I'm going to stop thinking about farts and fartists. posted by Sticherbeast at 11:07 PM on July 17 [1 favorite]
dirtynumbangelboy, I don't know. 15 minutes of Internet fame can be lucrative, as YouTube celebrities have proven. posted by wastelands at 11:09 PM on July 17
Sticherbeast, you mean fartistes? posted by Bromius at 11:10 PM on July 17
I did not follow the link. Hovering over it with my mouse and seeing http://www.cakefarts.com in my status bar did, however, make me smile quietly to myself and bring to mind in a welter of pleasantly nostalgic feelings the many amusing fart jokes I have enjoyed in decades past, and so: it is good. posted by stavrosthewonderchicken at 11:12 PM on July 17

I like the way, at the end, she tried to squeeze a few more farts out but came up empty. posted by jayder at 11:18 PM on July 17

At least have of the threads on MetaFilter are basically farting on cakes. posted by rokusan at 11:19 PM on July 17

That appears to be a Pepperidge Farm chocolate layer cake. They're in the freezer case. Maybe she was just trying to make it thaw faster. posted by longsleeves at 11:21 PM on July 17
That girl just farted on a fucking cake. posted by frecklefaerie at 11:22 PM on July 17

Actually, turns out sup widdip gratz oocc won't give us any real additional insight as to what's going on, as cakefarts.com is just some SA goon rehosting a mysterious (now-deleted) Youtubery. posted by TheOnlyCoolTim at 11:28 PM on July 17
Those marketing execs at Betty Crocker are hoping this idea of theirs goes viral. The last three haven't done so well. (peeonacake.com, cakevomit.com, and bloodycake.com) posted by strangeleftydoublethink at 11:30 PM on July 17 [1 favorite]
I had long ago resigned myself to a a lifetime of asexuality. It's a hard road, never partaking of the sweet bliss so many others seem to find at the very heart of human experience. But there was just nothing that could bring me to climax.
