The use of this:Biscuit

Assume is a biscuit. A jammy dodger ???

WTF does it meeeeannnn???? I see it in about 100000 different contexts on here and feel like I'm not in the gang.

Please tell me- before I go raid my own (off limits due to diet) biscuit tin in despair!

Most commonly it means "you're taking the biscuit" or "ffs you goady fucker"

notanothernamechangebabes · 15/03/2017 17:18

Ahhhhhhhhh

Excellent.

Is it ever used ... kindly? Like "here, have a biscuit. You look like you need one"

I may historically have used it in that way.... Blush

I like use at as an arsehole emoji

I.e. 'don't be a goady Biscuit'

It's never used kindly. You need these CakeBrewWineFlowers for that!

Its sometimes a sort of "no comment" as in the circumstances of the thread are so off the wall there's nothing really to say.

Gordon Brown did a web chat.

GB was asked 'what is your favourite biscuit?'
GB replied 'no comment.'
The biscuit is therefore taken to mean 'no comment.' Or, 'fuck off.' Grin

Also pissing myself at GBs webchat. That is SO Gordon Brown.

Off topic- but I'm starting to miss the Blair years. Even the brown years. Bet Hammond doesn't even eat biscuits. Just the souls of small limited company owners.
