When someone takes the piss, where do they take it?

...same place they take the micheal...

Up sh*t creek, with or without a paddle.

In
the
toilet.

Hopefully, anyway.

I don't get it...

I think Graveporn is trying to be ironic??

Who knows?

Well be thankful for small mercies then!!

oh

Punnage

That sounds rude.

So does Luck, sounds alot like... [Beaten by censors]

whats the equivalent of taking the piss in american?

in case no one who is american knows what it means, its loosely to mock someone.

What does "Bob's your Uncle" mean?

The same as "There you go"

eg : And you put the ice in with the coke, and Bob's your Uncle!/there you go!

saturnine, dont feed them those dirty rotten lies to embarrass them.

bob's your uncle is a grave insult. im surprised youve not been moderated.

ahh I see...

I have a good idea!

How about making this a full-blown thread on slang ang what the heck it means!

Uncle Heavy - You are a . You deserve a night in Alcatraz for your mischievious attitude...

I'm not sure if there's a direct equivelant in American English (yes, yes, oxymoron ), at least not a colloquialistic one. Closest I can think of is to poke fun at someone, or, as Tom said, to mock someone.

Good idea! How about slippin a crite one in yur quentin methusalah?

We can deduce from the definite article that there is onle one piss: THE piss. Therefore only one person can take it at a time, whether take in this case means to transport or to recieve or to imbibe, I'm not entirely sure. It might be said that I'm taking the piss right now, so you will have to wait your turns.

And how does this relate to taking the cake?
