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?

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

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.

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

Then you do this:
That's motherfuckin' John Oates!

"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?

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.

Runnin' from somethin' that isn't there

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