Happy St. George's Day to my fellow English ex-pats.

If you'd like to come over to mine for a cup of tea and a rousing verse or two of Jerusalem.

Of course I'll open my doors to anyone, but you have to put on an English accent. Or at least dress up as a famous English person. I'm serious about that. Suggestions include the Queen, Queen, and any one of the Spice Girls.

	By "tea" do you mean alcohol? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	No. I mean tea. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	With alcohol in it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If by 'alcohol' you mean milk, then yes, if that is your preference. If by 'crack cocaine' you mean sugar I totally have a lot of that too. I take my tea with alcohol and crack but I'm like that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Okay, the Irish saint is so much more fun than this George dude. Milk and sugar? Weak. British accents and people dressing as Spice Girls and Freddie Mercury has so much party potential. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Firstly, it's the middle of the day, second, it's a tea party. It's tea. Third, you don't need alcohol and crack for it to be fun. Anyway, George slayed a dragon, Patrick only killed a few snakes. He needed to get his friends drunk so that his embellish story of heroism and martyrdom sounded more epic. That's the abridged version. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's never too early to start spiking your tea, especially after a week like this. I'm sure there's a euphemism somewhere in that explanation... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If you spot the euphemism and explain it sufficiently I'll buy you a drink. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Which would be a reasonable proposition if I didn't work in the only functional pub on the island and we actually used money here... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, well now you're just splitting hairs, Summer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So I think the euphemism is something to do with penis sizes and compensating but, while I was looking for illustrative gifs on google, I found this: Not sure what the relevance is to this conversation but I liked it and I'm bored so there. :) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes, George had a bigger cock than Patrick. For your efforts you may dress up as Mary Poppins and spike the tea with alcohol. But not all of the tea because of those pesky pregnant people and the tedious teetotallers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Or he's compensating for his little cock by killing a big dragon? But then I really don't know what Paddy's multiple snakes represent... And if its anything like what I'm imagining, he should probably see a doctor.

Oh dude, I only wanna spike my tea. I'm not up for sharing.

I'm not sure about the Mary Poppins thing, though. Have you seen my clothes? The best I could probably manage, with my wardrobe, is 'Mary Poppins after she's got into recreational laudanum use and casual prostitution'.

	Slutty Mary Poppins is a new one, but I don't think anyone will complain. Spike your own tea and come and be a suffragette. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Dude, it's not new. There's a fucking costume! Which means someone, somewhere, is as fucked up, mentally speaking, as me. Although I'm pretty sure my clothes aren't as clean as that outfit looks... And they're nowhere near as feminine. I can tell you that right now. I'm really excited to do my British accent again. Your face twin used to think it was fucking A. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_eames 2013-04-23 09:50 pm UTC (link)
	Wow. I mean. Wow. I don't even know what I can say to that. My face twin? This still blows my mind a little bit. But sure, I'll look forward to hearing it. Also, every time you reply I get promises that you're going to lick my face. Where do we stand on this? Is this a thing that's going to happen? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	asummersday 2013-04-26 09:46 pm UTC (link)
	Tell me about it. I'm so glad no one's shown up with my face. I can lick your face if you want... XD (Reply to this) (Parent)
