Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

It's out of stock. There must be some way to trick the website into letting me click 'add to cart' even though that button is missing right now. How hard can this be? Currently combing through 'inspect page' on Firefox. I am not a programmer.

Do they actually have the ability to fulfill your order? I'm not sure what would be gained by doing this.

The cake exists by virtue of being ordered on the website

Demand side economics.

First come first serve, let them find out later when they get to someone else's order that they have run out of cake.
