(For those not from the UK, "butty" is another word for a piece.)

Piece of ..? Bread? Cake? Ass?

[-] Korval@lemmy.today 10 points 3 months ago

They didn't say "a piece of," just "a piece." Since we're talking about slang and since "a piece" is slang for "a gun," we're forced to conclude that the advertisement is for a gun shop.

But guns are biceps, so clearly it's a gym / fitness studio.

Oh, true. And it being a gym also supports the "ass" angle.

[-] billwashere@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

I like “butty” being slang for a piece of ass better.

(For those not from the UK, "piece" is another word for a filled breadcake.)

What's a breadcake? Is it bread or cake? You have to pick one...

Is this why British food sucks?

[-] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 months ago

Clarifies a certain schoolyard nickname, apparently.
