I’ll try and be there, especially if there’s crumble…🤪

 

We'll save you some 😋

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from Mike, Gabs & Team Scrumpy 🥳 - see you in October! 

[Jimrs2k2]

Happy new year all.

I might be able to make this one...

Just make the decision and stick to it - don't crumble!  (I see you've read the topic so I'm chancing an an in joke)

Then stop milking it, it's an udder disgrace.

Don't make any more puns please. The moment's scone.

[Pea Turgh]

I ain’t sayin muffin

[scrumpymike]

For alyctes and any others who haven't been, the buffet is finger-style.  You can also take your pick.

[Rich]

But don't eat all the cheese scones before I get one, or I'll give you a slap.

Normal cutlery is also provided......

For any thread in Basschat there is a number NpP, which cannot be determined in advance or theoretically, but only by observation of the thread. It is the number of pages at which the thread spontaneously degenerates into a collection of dreadful puns. 

Some threads never degenerate, or have not yet done so, and have NpP=0. 

This thread has NpP=2.

P, however, is a constant* and the threads without puns are, in fact, anomalous so the correct number for a page without puns NpWP=X, where X is the terminal coefficient sine of Tommy Cooper > [fez]=(0.47).

Peas? Never noticed them on the lunchtime menu but I'm up for them....

Surely there are other factors at work here too though... the total number of puns, coefficient Ptot, and their funniness, variable xJCarr where {JCarr=not funny} is an unvarying constant.

Indeed there are many factors that need to be taken into account. xJCarr where {JCarr=not funny} is an unvarying constant but only theoretically, for a start in application several Cleeseian variables can have profound effects on xJCarr where {JCarr=not funny}…

 

xJCnf 
 

Substitute xJCnf=cosα,α∈[0:;π]x=cosα,α∈[Basil!]
Then∣x+1−x2∣=2(2x2−1)∣cosα+sinα∣=2(2cos2α−1)Then∣x+1−x2∣=2(2x2−1)∣cosα+sinα∣=2(2cos2α−1) > (a) Prawn Goebbels
∣N2cos(α−π4)∣=N2cos(2α) α∈[0;π4]∪[3π4;π]∣N2cos(α−4π)∣=N2cos(2α) α∈[0;4π]∪[43π;π] = He’(s) F{rom} b/arc3L0n4

It is a fundamental law of the universe that entropy will eventually cause any given forum to lapse into a fish pun thread. While such lapses may be reversible, the process will repeat until the entire internet collapses under the sheer weight. See also: Hake Death of the Universe.

Even without the fish puns, this has now reached an unacceptable scale.

Fish puns? Why am I only herring about them now? I’ve plainly missed out. Hopefully, they were batter than the usual offerings.

While @Frank Blankand @Richmake very valid points about the factors influencing NpP, I maintain my stance that it cannot be predicted theoretically in advance. The idea is turtlely misguided.

Agreed.
