Being cheeky, have you ever been, or someone towards you?

Do you like cats?

Define "cats."
Do you mean domesticated pets or the entire family felidae?
I've never been to British Columbia.
My brother is a beatnik...a real cool cat. No, I don't like him.
I hate Broadway plays.
When you say "Like," do you mean in the emotional sense or the Facebook sense, because my Fluffy has her own Page. She can't type but loves using the mouse.
No, I don't lick cats. Gross!

Gee, grahamg. Why don't you people speak English???

Classic, if Monty Python were to make a return to our screens, they could do worse that call upon your services to help write the script! 🥳.

I could show you a range of picture postcards from Blackpool in the UK that might give you a better idea(?).

Struggling to find aforementioned picture postcards, but maybe some kind person will step into the breach? .:unsure:

Happy to oblige. I was born that way, glad to step into it again for a mate. I believe these are what you're referring to:

And finally, the cheekiest of them all...

Going by these postcards- in other words, "tacky"??

Merely extreme examples of cheekiness, used for dramatic effect only, (bawdy would be a more appropriate term perhaps?).

There was once a comedian known as " The cheeky chappy", in the UK (could have been Frank Randall?). By todays standards his humour wasn't so awful, mainly slapstick, and funny faces.

"Are we there yet Ethel"? (Oops, I've inadvertently quoted Jimmy Edwards, and made a double entendre! 🎩 ).
 
My orthopedist was about to give me a shot in the hip with a very big needle and I asked him if it was going to hurt very badly.

"Oh, big time!" he answered with a grin (he's never been anything but honest with me).

"Well, then can I hold your testicles while you give me the shot?"

"No", with no grin.

His nurse was laughing, though.

I guess that qualifies as cheeky?

Back in the 80's, I had two men come in to lay a new kitchen floor. It was summer, and I had lots of cold drinks in the fridge, and the coffee pot was on. I opened the fridge and said "please, help yourself". The older man piped up with "never tell anyone to help themselves .. they might help themselves to everything in the house". I just replied .. "I'm sure you understood I meant 'help yourself to a beverage if you get thirsty' ".

Rather odd response, I thought.

No so. My parents had our house completely redecorated back in the seventies. The job took over a week. The following weekend while we were all out at my uncle's birthday party, our home was burgled. They got all the valuables. Every last thing. Some of my jewelry was antique and irreplaceable. We always suspected it was the guys who redecorated the house because they came in through a hidden window in the back.

So that guy might have been serious.

If you'd said New York was more important than anywhere else, many people might have felt that was cheeky, (so you're catching on!). 🎓 .

No, I wouldn't actually say NY is more important than anywhere else- even though NYers have a reputation for being arrogant, we're really not.
