Darling MNHQ, please, please, please could you arrange for the Biscuit Emoticon to fucking do one?

Really, please, just make it go.

If people don't wish to comment, than they can simply

Not write anything at all

Or it's meant to be sneery.

Or someone misunderstands it and offers it nicely with tea. And then gets flounced at with impunity. As no one really knows whether it's offensive or not.

In fact there are so many interpretations of what the biscuit means according to each individual, that technically you could probably have an entire thread using only the biscuit, with each poster making a unique comment.

There's another election due soon, it stopped being ironic and funny about 5 months after the thread that birthed it.

Seriously, just retire it.

I'm sick of trying to figure out why someone may have posted a biscuit. Post something clever, post something stupid. But don't post Gordens fucking biscuit Angry

well that's just it OwlCapone - I've never typed [ biscuit ]. Might try typing [kit-kat] for an experiment though.

I think mn should rescind the ability the post photos.

For the simple reason that I don't want to look at someone's piss covered stick as they can't figure out if there's a line or not.

hotcross don't click on those threads then. It's simple.

Altnernatively you could visit This fascinating website that has nothing to do with piss sticks oh no and vote to your heart's content Grin

It is when they're in chat that I just can't resist looking but restrain myself and don't make sarky comments.

not clicking not clicking not clicking

MichonnesSamuraiSword · 03/04/2014 14:06

If you click on my link do it do it , you can vote on whether there's a line or not. It's quite satisfying!! And instead of sarky comments you can just go on a frenzy of 'NO' votes and feel good that you're talking sense into people Grin

It's almost a form of public service.

I don't think I've ever actually done a biscuit. What with all the "here's my first...", I've felt compelled to save it for a special occasion.

It would be just my luck if you persuade them to get rid of it before I see a chance to use it without feeling like it's a waste. Sad

HoneyDragon · 03/04/2014 15:42

You don't want to post a biscuit and should be proud that you haven't.

I quite like the asshat.

Actually, this is how it is done.

Happy person wearing an asshat.

I think I've found someone on another thread who might be worth one... Grin
