The GC what now? Are we the cult?

Anotheruser02 · 16/09/2021 16:09

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?

The hazing will obvs start with identifying naice ham, and playing feminist chicken on a busy main street.

And possibly move on to writing properly evidenced letters to MPs while at the same time digging small change out from behind the sofa to fund the latest major crisis being experienced by some woman who trod wrong on the vortex dared to voice at the wrong moment that she thought she had the same rights that male people lay claim to.

I can't have been the only one inspired by this thread to make spaghetti carbonara and garlic bread for dinner, followed by a nice gin and tonic! I suspect that wasn't the intention of the carbonara poster Grin

Waitwhat23 · 19/09/2021 18:27

I suppose it would be a good way to see if there are fellow witches/vipers at a dinner party. Serve mushrooms to start, spaghetti carbonara as a main and a variety of cakes for dinner and see if there's any suspicious nods or winks.

Alternately, Weetabix = bad or Weetabix = No, thank you

You're also missing the neckerchief or other clothing item with a discreet viper pattern or the suffragette tartan.

I thought it was Weetabix + Marmite? I might have just disqualified myself.Blush

Or, you've opened up a more budget cult signature pasta dish than Nigella's carbonara, isn't she a fan of Marmite Spaghetti?

Yes, I've tried it! It's not bad actually, believe it or not Grin

Deliriumoftheendless · 19/09/2021 21:03

I understand if weetabix is presented you should tut and move away.

@TheWeeDonkey

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.

Errr I cannot do gin. So as long as there are many carafes of red wine I'm in. Never love bombed anyone in my life, I'm just a crotchety old biddy not made that way, but I will try. As long as theres wine.

Is this how the freemasons started?

They don't herd well

The Unherdable Cunts!

It all sounds marvellous. I quite like carbonara and gin, though I prefer patisserie to cake and won't touch scones.

ArabellaScott · 20/09/2021 11:47

It's pretty recent, Anotheruser. I think possibly because, as pps have stated above, some people started to question whether genderism had some cultish aspects.

Riffing off Suzanne Moore, maybe it should be a Stroppiness of the Unherdable.

I am right with you if we're forming a custard faction. I would gladly give up my autonomy and freedom of thought for a plentiful supply of pasteis de nata.

Chersfrozenface · 20/09/2021 12:40

I have just spent literally minutes looking for a suitable neckerchief. (I used to wear the red and blue traditional ones in the 70s - follow me for more fashion notes).

I can't find a polka dot one in purple, so it'll have to be a purple paisley bandana. I will look like someone's deranged spaniel, but I don't care.

BettyFilous · 20/09/2021 13:41

I can't help feeling that this cult is a bit shambolic. We don't even have a motto.

It may be more strapline than motto: “Redefine reality? No thank you!”

Waitwhat23 · 20/09/2021 15:18

I would plump for 'green, white and literal violets'. Whether an excessive use of exclamation marks should be used at the end of the motto would have to be discussed by the Motto Committee.

I am up for the literal violets.

We can scatter them on cakes and on weetabix for a start.

Maybe those fancy floral beds that spell out something - violets that spell out Literal perhaps.

I've got my suffragette tartan scarf all ready for winter! It's lovely 😎.

Once I get the purple streaks in my hair I reckon that's me initiated. Someone else can have my cake though, I'd rather have a nice chip butty.

@dianebrewster ooooooh! I may have to add that to my Christmas wish list!

I'd like literal parma violets.

@Wrongsideofhistorymyarse

I'd like literal parma violets.
I draw the line at literal parma violets, those things are revolting in fact if had the choice between those and Lang Cleg's weetabix abomination the weetabix abomination would win every day of the week and twice on Sundays, such is my literal hatred of said parma violets.
