It's not funny.

And we're not in the middle ages.

Thank you.

Oh Ithought it was a mis-type and you wanted us to stop you from thinking

MardyBra · 28/08/2013 19:16

It's a new verb I've made up Jamie.

Actually I need to think more, if this is the best quality rant thread I can produce.

Methinks the lady doth protest too much.

Mayhap we've been watching too many open-air Shakespeare performances of late (I had two in the last week, plus the Mikado)

JamieandtheMagicTorch · 28/08/2013 19:20

I'd like people to stop gripgiving, while we are at it

TheCuntingPigeon · 28/08/2013 19:21
Cake
MardyBra · 28/08/2013 19:22

Yes to the gripgiving also. Nice new gerund there Jamie.

What does the cake mean?

Is that like a biscuit?

I've managed to see open-air Shakespeare this year without finding that my speech goes back 500 years.

JamieandtheMagicTorch · 28/08/2013 19:25

I think it means:

"That's a Piece of Cake!"

or

Happy Birthday

TheCuntingPigeon · 28/08/2013 19:25

Cake!

Wine?

GrimmaTheNome · 28/08/2013 19:31

Just pray no-one's been touring The Canterbury Tales Grin.

FarleyD · 28/08/2013 19:36

Has there been a lot of methinking going on then?

MalcolmTuckersMistress · 28/08/2013 19:37

It's a bit Timothy Claypole isn't it?

hashtagwhatever · 28/08/2013 19:38

my cousin methinks all the time.

makes me want to poke her in the eye

MalcolmTuckersMistress · 28/08/2013 19:41

Holy fuck! I just googled Timothy Claypole out for curiosity of whatever happened to him NO ONE EVER SAID THAT HE'S BEEN DEAD SINCE 1987!

Oh this is distressing.
