Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The answer is B, clearly.

A is the choice of all right-thinking humans. So there.

JZ,

My first inclination is to find out more about the cake. I would assume A, but I have had some fucked up cakes.

I mean, yes, B is obviously the answer (the cake is chocolate, thus it is chocolate cake), but I'm not about to argue if someone gives me another kind of cake with chocolate frosting on top. Basically, now I want cake.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

B. "Chocolate" modifies "cake." Frosting is optimal but optional, and can be any flavor, because the cake will still be chocolate.

White cake with chocolate frosting is not "chocolate cake."

Jesus Christ, I want cake now.

1 - A, 2 - C. CAKE I WANT CAKE NOW. Thank goodness the Infamous BlueJay is coming over with chocolate raspberry cupcakes.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Interesting...very interesting. So we've got 6 B's, 3 A's, 1 anything but C, and lots of people who want cake.

I actually have cake if I want it, but bullshit consensus seems to be that it is not chocolate cake. As I suspected.

I think you all are crazy and reading the question wrong, as B is terribly wrong for anything resembling chocolate cake. A vanilla cake with chocolate frosting is not a chocolate cake. It's a vanilla cake with chocolate frosting.

A chocolate cake could have vanilla frosting, or pumpkin frosting. It's still a choclate cake, although a bit suspect. Also, a cheesecake with any sort of additions automatically becomes not a cheesecake, but a whatever-weird-cake. This includes graham cracker crusts. Just don't.

A vanilla cake with chocolate frosting is not a chocolate cake. It's a vanilla cake with chocolate frosting.

This is very true.
