First of all...

Omg, this is so brilliant I could cry.



I was taking a look around [livejournal.com profile] lolpotters - never heard of it until a few days ago, if you'd believe that - and I did find some gems, but at this I just had to stop and stare. (Click on the image to see the whole original entry.) Being as smart as I am not, I kept reading the captions and thinking I'd swear I've heard this already, this rings a bell factory, that's familiar, but I had to check the comments before going all facepalm and of course I recognized them, that was a Scrubs crossover.

Anyway.

Brilliance. Brilliantness. Brillianty.


Also, I am SUCH a teenage boy at heart. I mean - there is this place called "The Wee Shop", that opened recently near my uni, that sells exclusively British food. Well, sweets, really. God, you should have seen what sad picture I ,made the first time I went in there. Even as I had the nagging suspicion that it was all mostly the British equivalent of our, well, junk food. Hardly high cuisine. But still. ANYWAY - I was looking around, and I found one thing I just HAD to buy, because of what it said--





I MEAN, HONESTLY. I did feel like I do when, for whatever reason, I have to write down "cocktail" and then I find myself sniggering, but. I'm pretty sure I snorted aloud the first time I spotted it. (Jojo, this one so makes a pair with the Cock Soup.) I am, like, 150% certain I will find it pretty disgusting - pre-cooked canned food? No, really - but I still bought it, I'm still totally going to try it out, and I'm so keeping the label too. Might even start keeping a diary just to stick it in.

The amount of time I've spent looking at the thing and giggling like a schoolgirl (schoolboy?) is ungodly to say the best.

Honestly, you'd think that's proof enough that you should PUT ME OUT OF MY MISERY ALREADY, DAMMIT, HAVEN'T YOU GOT A HEART AT ALL?

!!! Spotted dick is brilliant! Good proper British stodge. :D

(Was your cock soup cock-a-leekie? That always made me giggle. XD But it too is delicious!)

ISN'T IT? :D If only it looked more yummy, I would have bought it mor happily ;P

Mmmno, I think it just said plainly Cock Soup? I can check it out though, I still have it in my room. XD I didn't have the heart to cook it, I kept it as a memento. :P ...I could do the same with the can as well, I doubt I'll miss much, but I'm afraid it might start smelling funny at some point. XD

The nice lady at the shop suggested me to try with custard or whipped cream. The effort not to fall over laughing, I was in pain.

non hai mai sentito dire di Spotted Dick? :D beh, io ho letto tutto l'Aubreyad due volte, allora sono abituata a "spotted dick", "spotted dog", "drowned baby" ecc. :D :D

Hey, I have a totally random question for you: I just finished watching Torchwood online (OMG squee!) and I wrote a wee bit of Jack/Ianto stopwatch-inspired porn. My question is, has this topic been so thoroughly canvassed in the Torchwood fandom already that I shouldn't even bother posting it, or should I not care about that? Also, where does one post TW fic/art? Thanks dear!

Thing is, there's this British supermarket here in Barcelona I only went once.

Maybe I should pay it another visit, soon... ;D


(tell me if it's good, will you?)

(I will! If I ever get around to try it, that is.)

From the Wiki entry : "It is also known as... Spotted Richard."

Will you be serving Spotted Dick in your gay movie theater?

Okay, and Spotted Richard now's making me think of a spotty teenager.

The desire to actually eat the thing is waning more and more by the minute... ;P

Well considering it's pastry in a can, yeah. That's understandable.

I did feel like I do when, for whatever reason, I have to write down "cocktail" and then I find myself sniggering

i was out friday night, and our bartender actually wrote 'cocktails?' on a napkin and passed it to us... I laughed for a totally different reason to everyone else!

lol!

I didn't know there was a HP/Scrubs crossover fic (or a world of them, for all I know). Could you link the one these macros are referencing?

Have you eaten the Spotted Dick yet? I can't stop picturing it looking like flan. Canned flan.

Oh, no no no - the crossover was in the macros. They lifted lines from episodes from the show (which was way they sounded familiar to me) and used them in the macros, changing the characters' names. :D

Haven't yet, but I will. :D
