They meant fortnight. It's 2 weeks.

>>5496191
this

Do you not say fortnight in the U.S?

fork-knife

just get out now

>>5496205
I only know about it because I read the word in a book once. Confused the hell out of me. But no in America we just say 2 weeks.

>>5496205
Correct, we do not use the term fortnight in the US.

>newfags as far as the eye can see

>>5496212
it's summer

He didn't say fork-knife. What he probably said was "Pfferk-Nieg." This is a reasonably priced flatware made in Sweden that is popular in England because it can handle the caustic washing powders used in British dishwashers.

>>5496221
only valid reply in this thread

>>5496185
oh look, is this thread again.... open, do you just samefag copy and paste the entire thread? I've seen this exact thread with these exact responses 3 times now... ffs

>>5496221
In Liverpool we just call them "Pfferkies" or "naggies".

>>5496246
no they seem a bit different

>>5496217
eternal summer

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_September

"In Usenet slang, Eternal September (or the September that never ended) began in September 1993, the month that Internet service provider America Online ..."

>>5496217
>summer
yes. that must be the explanation behind all of the shit posts on 4chan. mystery solved

>>5496342
I think he meant to say "seumaar." This is a Swedish word meaning "poster takes hisself way too serious." The literal translation is "one who has his head up his own butt."

>>5496342
The shitposting always goes down the night before kiddos first school day of the year. Always.

>>5496185
Sogwich guy found a new schtick. Remember when he would reconstruct one huge thread over and over again several times a month?

you are correct
Brits call sporks fork-knifes.
and they call chips crisps.
And they call crisps fork-knives, too.
It's Dundee rhyming slang.

>>5496365
lol yup

>>5496357
I thought the whole "hurrr summer" thing was just bullshit, but as I frequented /ck/ for some time I did notice the shitpost frequency increases during the holiday breaks and summer.

I know summer is soon upon us when the harbingers appear: daffodils, hyacinths, tulips, and summerfags.

>I live in the Detroit Metro area

A moment of silence for OP, please, /ck/

>>5496474

OP here
I am fucking loving this!

inb4: You probably don't own a proper set of knives.

>>5496498
You probably don't own anything, you're from Detroit.

Even the cellphone you stole to make this thread will be gone in the morning, spirited away to pay for crack.

>>5496514

you like one of those joke telling guys!

let me try: Did your parents have any children that lived?

keep it up

>>5496527
Yes, that's the spirit, keep smiling.

It's only Detroit. You're bound to escape one day.

>>5496540
don't you have some shitty waiter job to go to?
who needs college right?
Now get me a clean fork
chop chop
so I can eat this well done steak slathered in ketchup

>>5496553
Haha!

Yes! Roleplay being at the top of the heap! Reach for the stars, you misbegotten bastard!

>>5496568
somebody's mad

what's a fork-knife?

Nice try, OP.
Everyone knows forks and knives are banned in britbongistan. Too sharp and scary looking.

>>5496211
> Bullshit
Bullshit

>>5496699
In Amercia we say two weeks for fortnight,
we say asphalt for Tarmac.
We have carry out not take away.
They're bloody fries not chips,
It's chips not crisps.
I'll do that thing right away not straight away.
I'm hanging up the phone not ringing off.
It's her cute butt not her cute bum.
You get some nookie not some crumpet.
And last it's a vagina not a quim,

>>5496710
Also:
Elevator, not lift
Truck, not lorry
dumpster, not skip
...and we don't put extra "u"s in "color" or extra i's in aluminum.

>>5496632
Not banned, just restricted.

>>5496710

>ringing off

the fuck

>>5496723
ever used an old phone? when you slam it, it makes a ring noise

>>5496185
Condolences for having to work for brits.
Remind them of Gallipoli and they'll shut up fast.

>>5496761
Who slams their own phones down? They're not made for that, you know. And I always thought brits were a polite, friendly and effeminate people.

>>5496356
In the USA we call that a "fucking cunt."
Hejsa

>>5496474
Detroit... Condolences.

>>5496779
Crack heads and meth heads.
They know that the obama government will replace their own destruction at no cost to themselves.

Kind of like morons after a basketball game, win or lose they'll burn the city that their in.

>>5496710
>carry out
the fuck are you from? it's take out, faggot.

>>5496205
most people who are not idiots still know what it means, though. it seems useful, but anyone who tries to use it and isn't a Brit is automatically a pretentious try-hard.

>>5496723
it does sound quite rude.

>>5496868
>but anyone who tries to use it and isn't a Brit is automatically a pretentious try-hard.
