Are they the same?

It's got very confusing

I don't like the word bitchy. It's sexist.

I don't like the royals either.

Weirdos, the lot of you

Salmotrutta · 10/07/2014 16:57

How about "Schenectady"?

Still not sure how to say that.

What would the doggy be for.

Jaffa cakes are small discs of disappointment. I give them to the corgis.

HoneyDragon · 10/07/2014 16:58

I don't care whether Jaffa cakes are a biscuit or cake I don't eat them.

What I do is peel off the chocolate and put it in the bin. Then I pull of the sponge and give it to the dog. Then I have a glorious round shiny piece of gelatinous shiny orange.

THIS I throw at the ceiling. And then

A) wait for dh to notice it there and shout at me for throwing marmalade at the ceiling AGAIN!

Or

B) wait until it falls down unexpectedly onto dh and he shouts at me for throwing marmalade on the ceiling AGAIN,

In this house Jaffa Cakes aren't confectionary, they're sport.

Yes. And one goes soft and the other stale

And that's exactly it - cakes go stale if left whereas biscuits go soft. Definitive judgement.

and I don't give a shiney shite about royalty - if you post like a dick you will get "forthright" responses

Am I the only MNer who likes Jaffa Cakes?

Does that mean I Am In A Class Of My Own?

Pagwatch · 10/07/2014 17:02

My fave is hyperbole which I pronounce as hyper - bowl and with an American accent.

Oh she sounds annoying Exit. Was it really great or was it 'someone else made this' great - like cups of tea and sandwiches. Always better when someone else makes them

My mum came to stay last week and can't make porridge any more. She had packets of instant Quaker oats. It was the saddest thing

LineRunner · 10/07/2014 17:02

HoneyDragon, have you ever thought about just eating a jar of marmalade with a spoon?

I saw a friend's mum do this once whilst her bonkers partner showed us his shit art he was hoping to enter into the Royal Academy's summer show. Not a weekend visit to be forgotten.

JennyOnTheBlocks · 10/07/2014 17:02

Am I the only one who read 'have you seen MNHQ patio' as 'MNHQ panto'

Jaffa Cakes are good for those days where I just have to eat a whole packet of something or die. They do less damage than cake or biscuits calorie-wise.

On other days, I wouldn't bother.

I don't like marmalade that why I throw it on the ceiling.

LineRunner · 10/07/2014 17:09

Sorry I thought you threw it on the ceiling as a form of homage.

HecatePropylaea · 10/07/2014 17:10

I love them.

I nibble off the cake backing then suck the chocolate off then eat the orange bit.

HoneyDragon · 10/07/2014 17:12
Grin

I may waltz into the local gallery in a kaftan and start flinging Jaffa discs everywhere whilst doing interpretative dance.

LineRunner · 10/07/2014 17:13

You'd get a grant for that.

OnlyLovers · 10/07/2014 17:15

I did a Facebook quiz called 'How bitchy are you?' the other day and came out about 65% which I think is on the low side, actually

so I'm bitchy. And I'm here a lot, so a regular.

Royalty though? Don't know that I am or that I want to be.

I don't like Jaffa cakes much. I don't know if that means I'm regular, bitchy, royal or what.

Fenton · 10/07/2014 17:18

Puss in mum boots, that's bloody funny Grin

Where are we on wagon wheels? Cake or biscuit? I had marital in-bliss because of buying wagon wheels for husband once.

Do you know they have 'chocolate flavoured coating'? It's not even real chocolate.

Fenton · 10/07/2014 17:20

That should be un-bliss btw

LineRunner · 10/07/2014 17:22

I was just imagining wagon wheel fuelled shagging and then you spoiled it.

OnlyLovers · 10/07/2014 17:24

Wagon wheels are a cake IMO.

'chocolate flavoured coating' Grin. So, basically, plastic marshmallow, plastic crunchy stuff and plastic chocolate.

I love em.
