Take the Cake Bakery

Unread post by Mississippi Blind Child Assburn »

Now is that stoopit , or wot?

Now really, would you buy from an establishment called Take The Cake Bakery?

Doesn't really inspire confidence in their wares,does it.

The phrase "take the cake" means "when someone does something stoopit, rude or selfish" but it also means "when something takes the cake its an outrageous example of something bad". Loike, say, Chunk or Paul's taste in music. :o

They should change that store name to PREMIATA FORNERIA MARCONI.

Where you say "Take the cake! we say "Take the biscuit" and not those bloody things called biscuits they eat in Amerca, they're bread. I mean proper biscuits, which are cookies. I hope that's clearer for everyone. What was the question? :mrgreen:
