Tunnocks Thread 2

960 replies

Boiledbeetle · 16/08/2023 16:13

The question asked in Thread 1 has still not been answered satisfactorily, and so the quest continues to discover which side of the fence Tunnocks are on or whether they are in fact sat atop the fence throwing Snowballls and Tea cakes at both sides.

I have no idea where the link below will send you. hopefully to the original thread and at the start, but it could be a completely different thread half way through. I'm too full of sugar to concentrate properly!

Both, surely?

That was the correct answer.

I left my tea cake unattended.

Big mistake.

Huge.

As I'm unable to sleep and getting up for a cup of tea do I have a bacon butty or a Tunnocks caramel wafer?

Both, surely?

Plenty of places I can get my capybara fix in the UK, ta.

And just you wait until I win the lottery.

Having done a quick google, I'm definitely toying with a trip to one of the places that do a "Capybara experience". Thanks for the inspiration!

And no Boiled, I wasn't offering myself up in an effort to get hold of Cher's stash, I've got my own now that my local Sainsbury's is selling the dark chocolate wafers again.

Like this, but ending very badly.

I'd pay to see Jason Statham running from a big duck.

I want those giant carnivorous ducks that used to live in Australia.

Trust Australia to have yet more lethal wildlife. It's kind of the landmass's USP.

If, we're doing rodents....I give you

Chinchilla!!

Though truth be told I'm not 100% sure that it isn't a lagomorph*.

*which, in this font, looks like Iagomorph, the bad guy in Othellomorph.

Chinchillas are definitely rodents, of the infraorder Caviomorpha, therefore related to guinea pigs and capybara.

The Caviomorphs also include the extinct hutias Heptaxodontidae, giant guinea pigs Phoberomys pattersoni and the possibly even bigger Josephoartigasia monesi.

If we're bringing back extinct animals, fuck dinosaurs, I want giant rodents.

That chinchilla looks like it's trying to eat a caramel wafer, I suspect it's sticking to it's teeth!

It's 9.30am I've been up since 6 am (no I don't know why either, it's not as if I've done anything in the 3.5 hours I've been awake) and I have yet to eat anything Tunnocks related.

I'm sorry. I'll try to do better.

When you win the lottery Cher I trust you will be setting up Tunnocks subscriptions for us all 😉.

But do they have capybaras in Peru? As a rodentophile might that be sufficient compensation?

I feel you have skin in this game. Are you offering yourself as the compensation as a sneaky way to get access to her Tunnocks supply?

They eat guinea pigs in Peru. Some of you will know of my rodentophilia and realise I would never go near that benighted country.

Mmm rightmove isn’t selling the town to me. Some nice character properties if you add 3 miles, I’ll just sell a kidney or two

Now I’m wondering if Tunnocks are recruiting and if the staff discount would be worth the 3 hour commute

A Tunnocks staff discount, and the chance to buy the damaged products really cheap would be worth an actual house move surely.

I did used to work with a woman who in a previous job had to eat chocolates, I think for someone like Thorntons, all day every day at work.

Apparently it really puts you off chocolate.

So probably not a good job to have.

A job I was looking at this week wanted to know my gender, gender identity, sexual orientation and preferred pronouns. Not my sex though. I didn’t apply. It was a small local business not a big company
