This is a question Misheard and Misunderstood

Rachelswipe says: My niece - after months of begging - was finally allowed to get a hamster, and her grandfather was utterly horrified to learn that it had been called "Nipples", a pretty good name for a pet if you ask us. Alas, it was only the more mundane "Nibbles" - what have you misheard or misunderstood, with truly hilarious consequences?

I cycle to work
and rent out a flat in Wimbledon.
(Baggenfrock get fucked, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 12:04, closed)
landlords let
tenants rent

also, wimbledon? hardly the royal borough.

Fair enough
I bow to your greater expertise of the property sector.

yes
walking to the corner shop to buy sticky and almost out-of-date battenburg slices must be so much more fulfilling
(I helped save b3ta! rachelswipe with a fork, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 12:05, closed)
is this marshmallow-style random insult generation contagious or something?
I genuinely don't get it. Who is the audience?

i just found your description of buying cakes for the plebs from the corner shop to be rather sad

(I helped save b3ta! rachelswipe with a fork, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 12:10, closed)
I buy cakes for more junior colleagues.
I'm sorry this makes you sad. I buy their beer too.
(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 12:17, closed)
it made me sad, because corner shop cakes sound shit
but the beer thing makes you sound a bit... rapey.

He goes into the off-license to buy beer and fags for them
and invites them round his house so they can use his playstation.

He's been doing it for years. All the local parents warn their kids not to go near him.
(Baggenfrock get fucked, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 12:24, closed)
some of them are closer in age to my kids
:(
(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 12:47, closed)
Just think of all that time you could have spent with them instead of spending night and day seven days a week on the internet.
Secretly they must be pleased that their dick dad steers clear of them.

look ... the faux indignation and upset is one thing
but this ... this is just totally fucking unacceptable on a public messageboard
(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 14:10, closed)
it's disgusting stuff
i have duly peeled it off the outside. the inside is... ok. bit soggy.

mr kipling angel slices are much better.

i don't really like cake tbh

They are a bit nasty
but the cartesian symmetry appeals to my inner autism.
(Baggenfrock get fucked, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 14:19, closed)
lemon drizzle or gtfo

(I helped save b3ta! rachelswipe with a fork, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 14:21, closed)
It may taste nicer
but it doesn't have an inversion centre.

Unless the cakes I consume conform to certain symmetry operations, my family will die.
(Baggenfrock get fucked, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 14:28, closed)
there's nothing "inner" about this autism, is there?

(I helped save b3ta! rachelswipe with a fork, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 14:34, closed)
the corner shop sells lemon drizzle made by WI types
it comes in paper bags that are so impregnated with syrup that you have to prise them off the counter
(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 14:34, closed)
you're revising my opinion of the corner shop now

(I helped save b3ta! rachelswipe with a fork, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 14:34, closed)
It's Cambridge ... the 'corner shop' is a fair trade cooperative.

You mean
food bank
(Baggenfrock get fucked, Fri 29 Aug 2014, 14:53, closed)
I think the same group do run a food bank.
Some poor cunts are probably expecting tins of spaghetti hoops and getting organic spelt.

I really live near here (better village) and not just randomly searching
best places to live.

No point linking the Sunday Times, as I am sure you don't pay the online subscription.

More gentry than peasant.

Not sure I'd want to live anywhere the Telegraph rated so highly.

I hadn't bothered to click through but it appears to be a dead market town that's within commuting distance of London but not nice enough to be expensive.
I'm moving there immediately.

Godalming, otherwise known as Godawful.

Cool! We can be IRL buddies!
You might get a bit of shock though - it's not midlands council estate prices here.
I suppose there's Help to Buy.
(Baggenfrock get fucked, Sun 31 Aug 2014, 10:07, closed)
it's considerably cheaper than here ... presumably because it has nothing to offer except a commute to London
dunno if you're serious or throwing a marshmallow but that looks about as attractive a prospect as a holiday in Miami in rainy season
(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Sun 31 Aug 2014, 11:39, closed)

You are deluded about where you live. I can't blame you, I would be too if I had to live there.
(Baggenfrock get fucked, Sun 31 Aug 2014, 13:56, closed)
did you even bother to read those links? there's not one housein Cambridge on that first page
450k buys you a four bedroom detached in Godawful or a two-up-two-down terrace in Cambridge.

mmmmmmmnnnnnnnnnnnnng!
(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Sun 31 Aug 2014, 14:14, closed)
Que?
Detached house Zed index (Cambridge): £488,334

Detached house Zed index (Godalming): £827,125

But don't let that stop you getting defensive about the value of your shabby ex-council semi.
(Baggenfrock get fucked, Sun 31 Aug 2014, 14:26, closed)
that's not in Cambridge, you thick fuck
This is the first detached house in that list that's actually in Cambridge and not one of the surrounding commuter villages:

I think someone might be getting a little bit
upset
(Baggenfrock get fucked, Sun 31 Aug 2014, 14:43, closed)
I don't know why you would
it's your choice to live in a dreary commuter village with nothing but country pubs and the local Am Dram society to entertain you ... I'm sure the quantity surveyor and bank manager neighbours have some fascinating anecdotes while you're all waxing your Volvos on a Sunday morning

I can if you like, Albert.

bit harsh ... it's got a sweet shop and a bandstand ... it's a thrill-a-minute cultural centre
