    Mair Neeps

    Too fkn right! ... ye see, fan Ah wis a nipper ... or neeper even ... it wis a richt chav hollowin oot a neep ... but! the hollowed oot neep bits got biled up an' eaten! .... but fa actually eats pumpkin?? .... answers on a postcard? if such things actually get posted onymair?

    Maybe Ah should be hostin a pumpkin hollowin' oot workshop .... and 'disposin' o' the discarded pumpkin flesh in a fermentin bucket ... and makin a big batch o' pumpkin wine .... Ah reckon it wid be preferable tae a wine made fae neeps

    Pumpkin soup is pretty good to be fair.

    But agreed, hollowing out a neep with a small knife and spoon was bloody tough work. Often early November my mum would go on the rampage because half of the spoons had went missing.

    And here you go trying to instigate something from nothing. And you always claim it's others bringing the topic up.

    Bent = homo***ual. Different to trans. Your big issue often tends to be that mannies can't be wife's (but, oddly, never the other way round), cockspur, fannies, blah blah blah. I'm not sure you quite grasp the difference between gay and trans. A gay man or woman does not want to identify as a woman or man respectively. They are merely, through nature, attracted to the same ***. Explain why you object to that, in addition to your other examples of minority bashing.

    Anyway, back to Neeps' topic. You can make an affa fine spiced pumpkin and lentil soup, but you tend to scoop out the seeds and the rest is wasted. Bring back neeps.

    It was a joke

    However to describe someone as gay is poofy as f’uck.

    Now
    The thread was about digging out neepy lanterns.
    Sheepycrooky mentioned mothers.
    My mother’s main gripe on the subject was that her spoons got bent.

    So, having mentioned that, I realised that I had left myself open to smart arse comments so I qualified the meaning.

    So get off your high horse and find someone else’s kids to wish harm on.
