According to BuzzFeed, a mother from Lanarkshire, Scotland, recently asked a friend to bake a cake for her daughter's 21st birthday. She tried to tell the baker via text to put a "wee blond girl" on top, but autocorrect apparently had other ideas, changing "blond" to "blind."

Here's what she ended up with:
