Mr. Kipling and his Cakes

    Had one of these the other day and it was very good, very, very good in fact.

    Better than good, really. I want to say it was better than good, but I also don't want to go over the top and say it was great. Something that went beyond good, but stays within the realm of goodness, but perhaps at the fringe of good that goes in excess of it?

    Can anyone solve this mystery? Can't put my finger on how good Mr kiplings cakes are...

    They're no cheeseless cheeseburger.

    By the way, I'm a very accomplished flute player.

    No! That sounds rubbish.

    Ye are mixing yourselves up with the slogan, "Mr. Kipling knows how they make it so creamy"

    Id eat a whole packet to myself these days.

    Ah yes but if they weren't so exceedingly good you wouldn't want to

    Are they owned by Unilever, GlaksoSmithKlineBeachCombBaby, Tencent holdings or some other supermahoosive conglohommerate? If so they are using some experimental concoction from the Monsanto skunkworks to make it addictive


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,564 ✭✭✭✭whiskeyman


    The answer is sugar.

    They are exceedingly good

    Sorry, I didn't mean to put up that question mark

    Exceedingly overrated.

    There's cocaine in them.

    Okay<nice<good<appropriate<great<exciting

    Using the patent-pending cake scale above, I have no option but to assume his cakes are better than good but less than great, therefore

    "Mr kipling, he makes appropriate cakes". Now there's a jingle that will get the fans all a-wobbling if ever there was one.

    No big deal, just another mark against your soul is all.

    They're sickly sweet SHÌTE!
    Mr Kipling can keep them.

    What is it, exactly, that you have accomplished through your playing of the flutes, may I be so bold as to enquire?

    Not having a kid who just got busted for cannabis possession probably helped

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    I have climactic finishes to my performances, more so than say an amateur oboist.

    I find the key is to keep one's mouth moist and wear a blue scarf.

    I cant play the flute, but I'm so glad I was taught how to play the recorder back in 6th class.

    It has become really handy in adult life, I've lost count of how many times I've resolved a difficult situation with a quick blast of 3 blind mice.

    *unibrow falls off face at thoughts of sexual ramification*

    It's no joke to out puff an obo blower. Excellent news, all round.

    You should join me for a rendition in the libary next Febuary, we have lots of time to pactise.

    Yep.

    He can shove them up his hole.

    What happens when a flute player of ill-but-oddly-enticing-repute, a crime-fighting recordist fixated on mice, and platters of appropriate cakes meet in a libary?

    The mice, eager to keep their tails, rebel and stage a coup. In their blind state they mistakenly identify the flautist as the recorder player.

    As they launch their frenzied attack the flautist is choked to death by deep-throating the flute. The recorder player then screams in horror, traumatising the libarian.


    The libarian unleashes years of pent-up frustration and batters the recorder player to death with her own cherished recorder, the one she has lovingly cared for since 6th class.


    As a result the libary loses another r and is henceforth known as the libay.


    The acceptable cakes escape unharmed, bolstered by sugar, palm oil, preservatives and artificial colours.

    Who even buys them these days. So ‘90s. Remember French Fancies? All the rage back then. Even as a kid I thought they just tasted like processed sugary ****e.

    I still like those little tart mixes though. Some strawberry/black currant jam, some lemon curd. With a nice cup of Rosie. Oh yes.
