[edit] Dictdef

As it stands, this is a dictionary definition. It needs to be expanded into an encyclopedia article (use of these terms in culture etc etc). --kingboyk 00:53, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

  • If it is clearly stated in the article that 'taking the mickey' is derived from 'taking the piss' why does the taking the piss link get redirected and not vice versa?

[edit] Ships taking the piss

I heard from someone that taking the piss came back in the times of ship trade. Rather than trade some luxurious items in the ship they'd transport piss and maybe crap out to sea. When they were asked what their cargo was they'd reply with some luxurious item however they soon found out and said to them "you're taking the piss".

[edit] Who or what is "mickey bliss"?
