What It's Like To Live With Chronic Cupcake-Needing Syndrome

    This is a made-up thing that's 100% real.

    Some people daydream of absolute physical perfection.

    And we with CCNS do as well. In our way.

    We, too, enjoy many of the same things others enjoy, like popular movies.

    But we see things through a different, more delicious lens.

    However, we do feel that when anyone, fictional or real, is faced with choosing between someone who bakes and someone who doesn't bake...

    You choose the one who bakes EVERY TIME.

    We, like most people, long for love.

    Warm, delicious, sugary, cake-based love.

    And we can also be very idealistic. Few of us will scoff at the idea of love at first sight.

    We experience it every time we walk into a bakery.

    And we enjoy a good romantic gesture.

    Like, for instance, when you reveal yourself to be a cupcake instead of a person.

    We also love our friends, and value likeminded people who share our interests.

    Interests, for instance, like cupcakes.

    We advocate for innovation in all aspects of life.

    But secretly feel that humanity peaked with the cupcake sandwich.

    We can make jokes, we are absolutely jokers.

    WHAT COULD POSSIBLY BE FUNNIER THAN CUPCAKE HUMOR?

    Q: What did the stoned cupcake say to his friend?

    A: I'm so BAKED right now!

    (LOOOOOL)

    We struggle with the difficulties and setbacks of everyday life, just like the average person.

    Though ours are usually focused on our conflicting need for cupcakes and the struggle to resist them.

    We know the value of a dollar, and enjoy a good bargain as much as the next person.

    Especially WHEN IT COMES TO BIGGER CUPCAKES.

    We long for the same freedom in life as those who are not afflicted with CCNS.

    We just tend to call that "freedom" a "sugar rush."

    So please remember: Those of us living with CCNS have dreams and aspirations, just like everyone else.
