The Great Debate

[megisnotreal]

A few of my friends and I recently spent a great deal of time trying to decide what the past tense of "wake and bake" would be.

a) simply "wake and bake"-d?

b) woke and baked (which is awkward, but gramatically correct)

c) woke and boke (which is humorous in its efforts to preserve the original assonance)

Thoughts on this one? I know the fact that my friends and I talked about this for over thirty minutes may seem weak, but this is really driving me crazy.

For which choice do you cast your vote?

excuse ignorance, what's a wake and bake?

[Angry Ewok]

The correct past-tense for said term is wakey-baked, obviously.

You guys would be totally lost without me, sometimes.

[SiOuxTribe]

Woke and Boke is my vote.  Give it to me softly.

For past tense, I usually just go with, "I woke and toke" or "woke and toked".  Whichever you prefer.

I always said "woke and boke" but I was just talking to myself.

[ycartrob]

there is no past tense for wake and bake. In any form of reference, it's wake and bake.

[ManNamedTruth]

Heres the RIGHT answer, Ali:
This part is right:

Then you do this:

[megisnotreal]

For past tense, I usually just go with, "I woke and toke" or "woke and toked".  Whichever you prefer.

now that, sir, is a good point.

[MMJ_fanatic]

How about "WAKE AND DEAL WITH REALITY"?! ;D

[Dee.]

"wake 'n realitied"

[billybluebeard]

"Woke and boke" is good in situations where someone may be listening in, however amongst friends I lean towards "I waked and baked... and then I woke up again and it was like five o'clock in the evening and I realized my day was shot so I burned one before I headed over here to catch a buzz".

While we're on the subject, did you ever notice that this guy  :-X looks like he's holdin' in a big ol' hit?

Great job BH! I just wanna' know, who in the hell is the hottie?

[BH]

She is hot isn't she?  And look at that flawless makeup and cheery smile, first thing in the morning.  Wow, what a woman.  I would definately have cartoon sex with her if I wasn't married and I was a cartoon.

[peanut butter puddin surprise]

waked and baked is my vote...as in:

"dude, this morning I waked and baked, man.  it's 4:20 somewhere, right? hee hee"

[primushead]

She is hot isn't she?  And look at that flawless makeup and cheery smile, first thing in the morning.  Wow, what a woman.  I would definately have cartoon sex with her if I wasn't married and I was a cartoon.

HAHAHAH!!

Her and Lois Griffin man.  I would tear those two apart.  In a cartoon world, of course.

So... is the vernacular > the grammatically correct?
