It makes sense, but doesn't follow the format of the meme, which uses "my" (as you, no doubt, already knew).

Silence thyself and take mine wealth?

(Can't use taketh, it's like takes, not take)

[-] MagisterSieran@discuss.tchncs.de 24 points 6 months ago

“Mine” before a vowel, “my” before a consonant.

[-] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 14 points 6 months ago

Oh! That's why it seemed off. Okay, "take mine earnings" would be okay then?

~~"Earnings" is a consonant and "earn" would be the vowel.~~ Sorry my Bad!

[-] Tier1BuildABear@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Something tells me you got consonants and vowels mixed up with nouns and verbs. E is always a vowel lol

[-] TeNppa@sopuli.xyz 2 points 6 months ago

Hah true! Better not comment before I've had my morning coffee lol

[-] Tier1BuildABear@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

As long as you're wearing a helmet and have a canary, I guess 🤷

Stint thy clappe und tac thy coyne!

[-] Tier1BuildABear@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Now, see, we're still running into the same problem here

Love "Stint thy clapped" but the 2nd "thy" puts us back where we started where we started. And "und" and sounds a bit too Germanic to me...

[-] kn0wmad1c@programming.dev 18 points 6 months ago

"shut up and take your money" is not the meme

[-] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

The meme is Monty Python's version of King Arthur. I totally believe they would switch it around for the joke. It might not be grammatically the same, but it's thematically correct.
