Joey Batey

Joey Batey is an 82 year old actor/singer. He was born January 1 1938 somewhere in the UK. At the moment, he has given up on love after 3 failed marriages and losing both his children in the custody battle in 1962. He has 5 grandchildren and as far as we know, he has met none of them due to his children being terrified of his baking skills, or lack thereof. Batey starred in shows and movies such as The Witcher, The White Queen, The Riot Club, and he even voiced Pinkie Pie in My Little Pony.

Batey 

A rather posh, old-fashioned way of expressing someone's unhappiness. The closest equivalents would be CROSS or MAD.

From the Derek & Clive album "Ad Nauseam" (1978) :

CLIVE:
Oh, gosh! 'Oh! I'm done for!' I thought: 'Crumbs! If I go to Sir's study he'll get jolly BATEY and probably do all sorts of things'. And when we got in there he said, "I'm jolly cross with you .....for looking at, at Wiggins playing with his willy!"

batey 

meaning both kinky and slightly dirty, the first use of this word I encountered was in the "Tank Girl 2" graphic novel.

"- Oh Booga you dumb shit, can't you feel that immense rush of sexual healing?..

- Oooh?! Yes that is rather batey! Oooooh? AAH!..."
