I'm in. I am feeling slightly aggressive today and what better way to release it than kicking the shit out if a few cakes.

HoneyDragon · 09/01/2014 14:23

We've really got to address your propensity to punch cakes dear Twatters.

I wonder if some horrified bod from M&S is reading this and frantically trying to work out which cuntstomer Twatters is, and then locate her nearest stores to put a cake protection order in place?

LittleThorinOakenshield · 09/01/2014 14:26

If m&s read this we are fucked.

They will never give us those chairs.

MarmaladeBatkins · 09/01/2014 14:30

I haven't smacked a cake for ages now but it's this kind of thing that tips me over the edge.

I'm not really going to twat your cakes in Marksies. Giz me me chair

ziggiestardust · 09/01/2014 14:32

'Twat your cakes in' sounds like a rough man's euphemism; ie "urrrrgh c'mere darlin', I'm gonna twat your cakes in... Uggghh..."

Ahem.

MarmaladeBatkins · 09/01/2014 14:33

PHWOAAAAR giz a butchers at yer cakes darlin'!

TimeToPassGo · 09/01/2014 14:34

I don't approve of the punching of innocent cakes

M&S will give me a chair because I am not a cake-punching deviant. I am however a cake muncher. I wish to buy their cakes and eat them while I recline in aforementioned chair, having a nice cup of tea.

GIVE ME MY CHAIR MARKSIES!

GoofyIsACow · 09/01/2014 14:35

Awesome, i ordered two, i want to adorn one with a masiive throw and the other for my local charity shop just in case marksies are reading

GoofyIsACow · 09/01/2014 14:37

I am also not condoning cake damage.

Marksies are the best shop EVER!

I didn't order a chair but I'm very excited for you all, this is rolling story that's going to last.

Shamelessly marking my place.

YesAnastasia · 09/01/2014 14:46

I'm not interesting in cake punching or twats or buying a chair, I just want to see it the ugly chair! I reeeally do. What's it called? The link is an error now.

TheCunnyFuntIsGettingMarried · 09/01/2014 14:48

Anastasia there are numerous pictures of the chair posted all up and down this thread. Click 'show 500 posts' and scroll through until you find one.

Myrrhtle · 09/01/2014 14:48

That chair looks like you lift the cushion to access the commode.

GoofyIsACow · 09/01/2014 14:48

Myrrhtle Grin

Myrrhtle · 09/01/2014 14:50

Lift out the potty and store your gin knitting.

SnakeyMcBadass · 09/01/2014 14:51

Are you getting the chair?

YesAnastasia · 09/01/2014 14:51

Thank you cunnyfunt although I now have wash my eyes.

It looks second hand already.

GoofyIsACow · 09/01/2014 14:59

Snakey... Early reports suggest, they are undecided!

MarmaladeBatkins · 09/01/2014 15:05

The Thrones of Piss are being loaded onto M&S trucks as we speak I wish

GoofyIsACow · 09/01/2014 15:06

Fucking hell twatters I am on hold to hmrc, what if i am pissing myself when they answer

MarmaladeBatkins · 09/01/2014 15:08

Well, if you were sat on the 50 pee chair, pissing yourself wouldn't be a problem. Tis a chair that is made to stink of piss...

LetsFaceTheMusicAndDance · 09/01/2014 15:10

You know what it'll lead to if they do honour all orders?

Abandoned recliners, that's what.

Oh yes, lots of people think it's 'a good idea' to grab one - or several - when the going's good. These things need time and attention, people.

They'll need careful manoeuvring by more than one person.
They'll need skill and cre to place correctly - they can't be just chucked n a room and left to get on with it.
There'll be mechanisms to oil and crumbs to remove.

I think some people just haven't thought this through.

And then when it's all too much of a committment, what will we see?

Neglected and abandoned recliners the length and breadth of the country, that's what!

Once-proud recliners will sit sadly in back yards and sheds and they will be the lucky ones - lucky, I tell you.

There'll be barely a layby or roundabout without the shame of a cast out recliner trying to do its best to look inviting in the hope that some kind soul will take pity and give it the comfort of a warm room and a grateful arse. Because the alternative will be to be pissed on by youths or - look away if you are a kindly soul - set fire to...just for a laugh.

Is that what we want?

For shame.

WILL NOBODY THINK OF THE RECLINERS!!!!

LittleMissGerardButlersMinion · 09/01/2014 15:19

I already have a place in mind for mine, I will be worryingly disappointed if I don't get it!
