Sometimes, stories are so bizarre that you can’t make that sort of stuff up.

A Shop Rite refused to inscribe a personal message onto a birthday cake for a 3-year old, because the child’s name is Adolf Hitler Campbell.  Yep, you read correctly.  I don’t have any animosity towards the parents of Adolf, they can name their son whatever they like.  But don’t they foresee that the name might make their child the brunt of jokes and maybe an awkward social life?  Here’s a statement from Shop Rite regarding the cake:

“We believe the request … to inscribe a birthday wish to Adolf Hitler is inappropriate,” said Karen Meleta, a ShopRite spokeswoman.

I’m sort of torn in two, while I understand why Shop Rite would be uncomfortable in scribing Adolf Hitler on a cake, that little 3-year old still deserves a cake no matter what his name is.  He’s a 3 year old!
