The Great Heartland Biscuit Thread™

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Careful with that joke, sir - it's an antique!
That reminds me more of French than Russians, Proudhon if i am not mistaken :lol:
Proudhon indeed. I stand corrected. ;D

People shouldn't put any milk in tea. And certainly not be dunking biscuits digestive or otherwise. :twisted: I may be a bit of a tea fascist. ;D :wink:

Says the man who puts blackcurrant in Guinness. :urff:

At least you have the decency to not dunk in that.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

I'd dunk something in it. Just not a biscuit.

Manx residents spend 82p a week on chocolate biscuits.

This is the kind of news we need.

I will convert you yet Mr. Michael! I thought a Sisters forum would be the natural home for purple Guinness drinkers! Has nobody any sense of history?! :wink: ;D

There is a separate listing for ’chocolate biscuits - anything coated, fully or partly in chocolate - excluding chocolate chip'


That's a whole new debate right there - when is a chocolate biscuit not a chocolate biscuit!

Guinness with a shot of blackcurrant cordial.

Yes, really.

Oh best beloveds, the time has come to share with you the most momentous news. Are you ready for this?

FUCT is pleased, proud, and honoured to announce that, in partnership with Netflix, it is sponsoring Vir Das' comedy special, "Vir Das: for India". In recognition of this, Mr Das has included in his routine an homage, not only to tea, but to the dunking of biscuits therein. Specifically, the Parle G biscuit which, in his benighted ignorance, he claims is the best biscuit in the world (sure, we gave them independence, but there was no effing way we were going to let them get their paws on Our Noble Bourbons, dammit!). While he is of course wrong, in this assessment, we here at FUCT recognise that he has to play to his home crowd.

Anyway, should you feel so inclined I heartily recommend this show to you, not only because of the biscuit-dunking material, but also the rest his stuff isn't bad either.
