The GC what now? Are we the cult?

Twice in the last week or so I've read TRA posts on twitter saying GC fems are a cult. Despite the fact the movement begs for debate and sunlight. No secrecy or pushing for kids to hold secrets from their families.

Is this the latest in "I know you are but what am I" or has this been a claim all along and I haven't noticed?

I'm just catching up. Did we get to the bottom of the carbonara thing?

It's a strange staple to pick. If you do it the Nigella Lawson way you end up selling your home to afford the carbonara . She favours solid blocks of pancetta. Delicious, and yield amazing amounts of the most gorgeous fat ~that I have been known to drink~ , but second mortgage type expensive sadly.

Oh no, strikethrough fail, how embarassing

It is an odd one. Is that what wee Oliver Twist was after all along? I thought it was gruel.

BernardBlackMissesLangCleg · 19/09/2021 10:21

"Please sir, can I have some more carbonara?"

"also an extra slice of garlic bread ifyewwouldbesokind"

Doog yrev!

Randgo was an aspidistra surely? Good times

That would be an ecumenical matter.
Artichokeleaves · 19/09/2021 10:30

Well I was reflecting at three am, as you do, that if we're calling the yukka Mrs Overton, then Milady Berserko ends up being the aspidistra, and we definitely need to check regarding enthusiastic consent there, considering the responsibility to keep the aspidistra flying.

Thermal knickers may be needed.

I'm happy to be the cult treasurer and let the money rest in my account.

BernardBlackMissesLangCleg · 19/09/2021 10:47

Can I contribute tythes Alfonso ?

I've got a nice piece of only slightly sucked pancetta you could have

AlfonsoTheMango · 19/09/2021 10:54

Sorry, cash only. I'm sure you'll understand that, as treasurer, I have certain responsibilities.

My eyes leak at your altruism.

Will there be transparency of accounting? Is there a budgeting app that will let us see just how much money is being spent on Gin, Cake, Brew, viper milking, hateful haberdashery, books and childcare?

AlfonsoTheMango · 19/09/2021 11:25

Of course! My accounting firm is the esteemed Soo, Grabbit and Runn.

Smart move, what with all that US right wing / Westboro funding pouring in.

Ker ching!!!

ArabellaScott · 19/09/2021 11:33

I'd have thought absolute opacity was de rigeur for cult accounts?

Also who is responsible for love bombing,* because I feel this is a bit lukewarm. We need more enthusiastic welcoming of new members rather than the traditional arse-on-plate ceremony.

Artichokeleaves · 19/09/2021 11:36

We are also going to have to accommodate the Reagan-funded nuns you realise? Possibly they can form the love bombing bit in a village hall somewhere on a drop-in basis. Hug and a cake and a cup of tea.

Ekofisk · 19/09/2021 11:39

Nuns you say? I like nuns. Or is it penguins. I can never remember.

Artichokeleaves · 19/09/2021 11:43

I don't think call the midwife involves penguins.

Although possibly I'm wrong and it's been cake and penguins in the East End all this time. It would actually explain a lot.

ArabellaScott · 19/09/2021 12:11

Love bombing is tricky in times of covid. Perhaps if the nuns are in full PPE on top of the habits, and socially distanced cake? Maybe spray everything with gin just in case, I'm sure that might help kill off any germs.

Just about to make some nice hedgerow gin, but I'm keeping it so we'll need extra of the cheap stuff in.

Waitwhat23 · 19/09/2021 12:15

Anything but Gordon's. Teenage memories of a tall glass, no ice, slosh of Gordon's, topped off with flat tonic. Noooooo!

Actually, could that be the initiation ritual? A welcome to the vipers, if you like?

Quickly followed by Arabella's hedgerow gin.

Sonarl · 19/09/2021 12:26

It's classic DARVO. Pathetically transparent. "I know you are but what am I?".

ArabellaScott · 19/09/2021 12:26

We definitely need some hazing ceremonies. And a proper dance routine.

ArabellaScott · 19/09/2021 12:31

Well, wims, I am liking the sound of this cunty cult more by the minute. Weird gin, plant-worshipping, carbonara followed by a huge variety of cake. Gnarly costumes and a bit of a knees-up. Socially distanced love-bombing, a bit of chanting and free lesbian wives/T-shirts/cash.

What more could we need?

I'm off to source a nice hat.

dianebrewster · 19/09/2021 12:42

I assume we all get to wear purple? I've got a nice polo neck from the 70's I can dig out.....

Deliriumoftheendless · 19/09/2021 12:42

No money, just plastic discs with coloured shapes in them and no leader, just The Rangdo.

As George Michael used to say “if you’re gonna do it, do it right!”

PermanentTemporary · 19/09/2021 12:46

Twitter is remarkably like the Vortex tbh - one wrong step and you're vaporised

TheWeeDonkey · 19/09/2021 12:55

Okay, I'm in for everything apart from the love bombing.

I can handle gin, cake, dancing, witchy outfits, chanting, plant worship, free tshirts, a lesbian wife, cash and or tokens as long as theres no touching.
