Flowers aren't bad. They're a nice thing to give.

Flowersare kind. Biscuitis a biscuit and is reserved for goady fuckers mostly.
Although occasionally pops up in reference to a genuine snack.

That doesn't look remotely like a flower, OP. Unless there are Jammy Dodger-shaped flowers and I've just missed them...

I guess it could be misconstrued, it's quite gerbera-esque Biscuit I suppose.

Now you mention it it does look a bit like a pineapple ring with a cherry in it. Very 70s.

I gave flowers today on mn. I never give flowers, but it was most definitely a nice gesture rather than sarcastic or whatever else you think it might be.

I've always thought of it as a cat's bum.

Ahh. Brilliant.
I've always seen it as a jammy dodger and see it's use as "have a biscuit and shut the fuck up".

Haha makes sense now. I thought it was a bit weird to give a flower to someone who was being a turd.
