Say Tit Again!

                                        Say tit again!

 

Do you know the adjective from “repeat” ?

 

Oh, yeh, it’s repe-tit-ive.  (Emphasis on “tit”)

 

Sorry, did you say repe-titit-ive?

 

No, I said repe-tit-ive.

 

Oh, I heard repe-titit-ive. A word like that should be able to repeat a syllable.

 

You’re putting in a tit too many, it’s only got one tit.

 

But two “tits” are usual, aren’t they?

 

On women, but not in repetitive. Did you know it’s an example of a kangaroo word?

 

Not wanting to jump to conclusions! No, I titn’t know that. Now, at risk of being repetititive …

 

Get tit on!

 

Yes, probably trying to titillate and titivate …

 

Titititivate?

 

Yes, it means make enhancements to something.

 

Now, what was that huge boat that went down on its maiden voyage?

 

The Titanic?

 

Yes, Tititanic.

 

Don’t make me laugh.

 

You mean titter.

 

Nothing like a bit of tit, tittle. Er, yeh, tittle tattle.

 

I must tell you, someone recently told me I was a self-centred tit.

 

Oh dear, why tit he say tat?

 

I took tit as a compliment, even with the adjective “self-centred”.

 

That’s an interesting titbit. I’d say no wurriz because people who call others things are often reflecting something in themselves. In this case a kind of titular titivation, needing some titillation or tittuppy. So he’s a tit.

 

Yes, but he’s not at tit, not anymore. He retired in 2023.

 

A twat?

 

What did he work at, you mean?

 

Yes, at twat did he work?

 

Oh, he listened to the troubles of others, very good at tit, I believe, very caring.

 

Strange he felt need to report illwill from one of your oldest friends. The expression “shoot the messenger” being very appropriate, I would say, perhaps even hanging, drawing and quartering, consigning to the flames of hell. Maybe they’ll join each other, but I’m really beginning to sound a tit.

 

I don’t think you’re a tit.

 

Thank you. Twit I wouldn’t mind, reminds me of the Monty Python sketch.

 

Yes, upper class tits.

 

No, twits, you twit! Anyway, where were we? Oh, your friend missing helping others, missing tit on retiring from counselling work.

 

Yes, a big gap in his life, started to take tit out on friends, I think.

 

Made a nipple of himself?

 

Yes, a bit of a tit.  Better than a twat though.

 

As the owl said? “To wat, to woo.”

 

Oh, you are a hoot! You know, I think we have well and truly skinned this cat.

 

The ship has sailed?

 

No, I don’t feel I missed any opportunity here at all. You need to check your idioms.
