Grumbler, she wasn't just young- she was specifically 8 years old, and she was AT the party, not ON the party, and she sluchayno threw the cake AT her face, not TO her face.

Translator's comment
Думаю, что дла слова "случайно" в одном предложении - это перебор

Я заметил - просто переводил, не глядя на оригинал.
Нe стал исправлять, т.к. могло выглядеть, что я делаю это, чтобы выскочить в верхнюю позицию. Теперь можно.

Grumbler, there's a certain comedic effect in situations such as this one, where somebody did something intentionally, but is purposely relating it as if everything were an accident in a tongue-in-cheek manner: A: what did you do at the party last night?Everybody's talking about you! B: (smiling) oh well I might have "accidentally" spilled a drink on my ex-husband's new wife, then "accidentally" pulled her hair when she called me a bitch, then "accidentally" torn her dress as I walked out... all an accident, of course 😜" Hence the repetition of случайно.
