Pointless emoticom?

I have just realised that the 'f' stands for festive - I thought GNHQ had got decidedly tetchy!

Well, it doesn't work anyway!

Why does biscuit mean that? I thought it meant calories?

Following yesterday's discussion about this piece of confectionery, I thought it now meant abomination.

I think it really means, "For Gods sake leave it!"

absent I love your non-existent sense of humour.

I'd offer you an abomination but I know you don't eat them.

Or is it that you just don't dunk them?

On either Fb or Twitter (I forget and CBA to look it up), "a balanced diet is a chocolate biscuit in each hand".

I thought it might be the closest GNHQ could get to a mince pie or a bit like a cupcake but fewer calories. Glad I haven't used it then. The worry of getting the emoticon wrong.....

I think it means:
Well that just about takes the [fbiscuit]

Didn't fbiscuit work either!

Well, at the moment it just sounds a bit cross! And rude!

I think they've tried to import it from the Other Place, and failed. The Other Place has had biscuits for ages

Second-class citizens, that's us! We only get their broken old cast-offs...

Poor Cari. It was a valiant attempt.

I am really not with this! I cannot find any explanation of the word "biscuit" other than the obvious.

Let me be basic! is CBA "cant be arsed"?

We need a new Gransnet glossary

Nellie

The only online slang definition I can find is:
The definition of BISCUIT is "Attractive person" or "Cookie"

the thread where it started (on Mumsnet)

So, was it someone on Mumsnet who decided it should represent 'I have no idea how to answer a post'? Where did Greatnan get her definition from? I don't know, so I need a [fbiscuit] emoticon!

What's the point in having one? We've none of us got a clue how to use it.

If it means what Mumsnet said, we could have a whole thread, after the OP, consisting of nothing but [biscuit] posts!

Google!

Yes - as I said, all I could find was 'attractive person'. I could not find any reference to 'I have no more to say'.

It's a jammy dodger!
