For the brits
Quote:
For background: Rob is the owner, Bucky is a badly behaved cat, and Manx is a breed of cat. |
*clears throat*
is this ONLY for the brits or can anyone look? |
:D Maybe I should have said, "For the Brits, Britophiles, and others interested in Manc/Brit speak."
Sure. Dive in. |
Just discovered Manc is a term of derision. Learn something new every day.
|
In Bridget Jones Diary, after one of her friends gives birth she says her husband is upset "with everything so manky down there..."
:) |
I'd just like to point out that 'manc' and 'manky' are not the same thing :P
'Manc' is short for Mancunian |
Re the OP - the English cat appeared to be cockney. No cockney would pronounce Bucky as Booky. A cat with a broad Yorkshire accent might, as long as the oo is pronounced as in book and not as in soon.
Made me smile though. Because of course I understood it all and was delighted to think it might appear an inpenetrable code to other people. |

Mancunian = someone from Manchester

and Manx is something else entirely |
Yes indeed.

It's beter than that.
read on a bit he's supposed to be a Scouser :lol: Which is probably why he incorrectly uses Bakers Dozen and Bevvy. If you flick through the comics he just stops appearing after a week, then theres a smash and grab on somebodies piggy bank, :lol: unintended humor |
is that supposed to be a humerous cartoon? It's bloody awful. And not just because of the repeated butchering of the phrase 'have a Butcher's". And his hair's all wrong for a scouser too. But I like the piggy bank bit :lol:

You guys got, like, a whole other language. :lol:
