my mom bought glittery happy birthday candles for my cake tonight but the glitter wasn't edible and my sister shook the candles to see if the glitter would stick to them well enough, but ofc it's glitter so it didn't. so instead of dealing with microplastics, my mom had to pull out the number candles she had stored away but she knew she had the 2 missing, so instead she pulled out a 3 and a 7, crossed them to show that they were multiplied, and then added an eight a couple inches away, because (3x7)+8=29 !
which is true but then my best friend pointed out that it could just be 37-8, which is also 29. and then everyone's minds were blown. either way, definitely the most involved birthday candles i've ever had lol
