There are words after which something ordinary rarely happens. And they are: \u201cI woke up in the middle of the night\u2026\u201d Hundreds of stories start with these words, from mystical to incredibly funny. Some people hear strange conversations, some get scared of their own shadow, and others go to get a drink of water and stumble into an incredible adventure. We put together the most amusing stories \u2014 the kind that can be retold for years like a joke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I make custom desserts to order. Recently, a girl ordered a cake for her boyfriend\u2019s birthday. We spent a good hour deciding on the filling and decoration. It turned out expensive. But she, without bargaining, sent over the full amount. I bought everything needed and got to work. The cake was complicated, with lots of details, and it took a lot of effort. Especially the swirly lettering: \u201cI love you, Roman!\u201d I finished, went to bed. But I couldn\u2019t calm down \u2014 it felt like something was off. And then it hit me in the middle of the night \u2014 I ran to read our messages, and sure enough, her boyfriend\u2019s name was Ray, where did I get Roman from? I spent the rest of the night redoing the inscription, barely made it in time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
