What's a biscuit on MN?

[Sunshineeeee]

Why are biscuits so offensive on mumsnet?

An argument that "takes the biscuit"

(And also possibly, "The Biscuit Game," but you might not want to Google that.)

It means “No comment” and is a reference to Gordon Brown’s infamous MN webchat.

It usually means someone is being so VVU or goady that they don’t merit engaging with. Sort of ‘oh just shut up and have a biscuit’

Thank you! I might have offered someone one whilst being polite 😳😳😳😳... gently leaves mumsnet back to be a passive reader..

What Ada said! Impressive that it is still being used although the reason is now lost in the mists of time.

I thought it was a doughnut, as in... what a doughnut!! 😜

I thought it was to symbolise someone being a tit 🤣

Just to clarify, my tits don’t look like biscuits

@TheEndisBillNighy - not just a tit but an entitled* tit?

an entitled tit?

Baroness Jammie Dodgers?

I always wondered this! I thought it was a flower! As in sarcastic like 'aw you little princess have a flower!'

I always though it was because the biscuit icon resembles a tit...

@Maybeimweird I originally thought it was a flower too
