Rob this is like the kiss of death. Are you sure you have enough years left in your ol ticker to handle John’s man love for you?

104

Is that where my good buddies Torey & BigJock left us for? :sob:

105

Yeah not heard Big Jock for a while, you know of any reason why?

106

Where exactly is it that you’re taking that piss, and pray tell what do you do with it once you get there?

107

Don’t give up the day job pal :laughing:

Joking aside. I have looked it up. I have asked others, but I just don’t get what “…taking the piss” means. I know what “…taking a piss” means.

So, for all us non-Brits or non-UKers (or maybe just me), how about explaining in layman’s terms exactly, precisely, completely accurately and without ambiguity or ambivalence, what “…taking the piss” means. Examples would be welcome.

An excellent description of the term used by many people in the UK young Shy.
Must admit i wasn’t aware it was just a british turn of phrase but then we learn something new on here every day. :laughing:
I trust this will satisfy and educate Mr @letsdothis and the general american public :laughing:

Hi pal, I trust @Shyguy has given you an excellent explanation of the term you queried, do not hesitate in asking in anyway we can improve your vocabulary :+1: :hugs:

I’m not so sure you learned what you thought you learned because there are four other countries where this phrase is used. It’s not just a, “…British turn of phrase”.
:innocent: :rofl: :rofl:

113

I think you will find it DID originate here. No I misspoke, I don’t just THINK it did…

This from the guy who can’t spell, uses little punctuation and doesn’t seem to look up much, rather relying on his compatriots to do his dirty work for him.

I am sorry, I know that sounded like an outright chastisement and it wasn’t meant to. Just me being a bit cocky, as that was the kind of mood I was in at the time I wrote the comment. :blush:
