Things have already gotten pretty bad in the UK. Need proof, May is eating bacteria / pathogen ladened food stuffs to get by. You’re next citizens of the UK…
Don’t fuck with the Marmalade and everything will be fine.
Apart from Brexit, obviously.
I was thinking about a figure of speech.
Semms stange because as a Type 1 diabetic she should try to eat foods with lower glycemic index than jam and anyway getting some illnes due a mould cuold be more problematic when one has also to use insulin…
There’s a subtle difference between a person making-do in hard times, and a person who is making times harder.
Like I said, her other actions not withstanding. Talking specifically about not letting things go to waste.
Beats pig fucking, and it’s considerably more dangerous than running through a cornfield. Apart from that I’ve got nothing.
Where do you live that you know such colorful colloquialisms?
Isn’t the metaphorical jam the entire economy of the UK? If she was talking about actual jam, then I don’t think anyone would fault her this much.
I mean, it’s not like she had sex with a pig. (Somebody beat me to a pig reference, well, I won’t cry over spilt milk.)
With that accurate knowledge of UK politics I’m saying @timber_munki is a Local
Somewhere that spells it ‘colourful’…

Neither of those things were colloquialisms, they were literal descriptions of other political “scandals”.
Theresa May was once asked about something she did that was really naughty and she said the naughtiest thing she did was running through a field of cornfield (without the permission of the farmer, you see!)
Whereas an autobiography of a UK Lord mentioned that May’s predecessor, David Cameron, once inserted his penis into the mouth of a pig head in college in front of a large group of the UK equivalent of frat buddies. I still try to refer to him as David Hameron, but it never caught on. If you’ve ever watched the first episode of Black Mirror (which came out before the public revelation about Cameron) I’ve frequently thought the writer knew something that many of us didn’t.
My roommate and I used to tell each other before we consumed any past expiration date food, so in case one of us found the other twitching on the floor he would know what to tell the emergency doctor.
Just eat Marmite instead – never goes off (unless butter gets in) and can seal a wound too (maybe).
Creating the odd situation where one of you has an unexpected seizure and the doctor asks you if you know what happened and you say, “The only thing I can tell you for sure, is that they did not recently eat expired food.”
The trick is to get your roommate to try the first forkful of anything you have cooked. So much cheaper than an official taster.
I realise I worded that ambiguously. I meant we use to tell each other then eat the expired food.
Keep Calm and Scrape the Mould off Jam
