    But I really care more about your servants, and peasant workers ... do they snicker too? 🙂

    We do have a maid and a groundsman. There are no peasants here, we have a groundsman who looks after the premises. We do not have a butler; that is unnecessary. I'm perfectly capable of getting my own drink. Why is this even relevant?

    Well, it sounds like he was tricking you into revealing your parents financial status, which sounds like upper middle class or higher.

    Oh just trying to get some perspective on how "the better half" live - that's all. How old are your grandparents (you edited this out I see) that serve in the capacity of butler? 🙂

    I knew his financial status, and that of his family, the moment I looked over his "controversial" thread in which he casts a sickeningly dim light upon the less financially well-to-do members of society.

    In their 90's. They don't get around much and insist upon living far away from civilization so they need someone to help 'em out.

    I said I am ambivalent at the beginning of that thread. Please remember it isn't my money, it's my parents'. It is a hypothetical scenario.

    I believe you about their age (edit: actually on second thoughts I don't believe you about that neither), but from what I recall of your post prior to the swift edit, I do not believe that it is *you* or your immediate parents that help *them* out.

    I don't believe the precocious little prick about anything (including being 14), but he is adding some value to the forum and let's be honest there hasn't been anything decent to eat around here since the days of CIV and Red Night.

    Certainly a resurrection and the class overtones do speak to a panto Hoppy indulging his darker side. But I didn't know him well tbh.

    Wanna look up my facebook profile? You shouldn't have much difficulty finding it (There aren't many people out there with the name Tyger).
    By the way watch your language dude.

    He claims to be Jewish, yet his school, Diocesan College in Cape Town,
    is run by the Anglican Church. They do have a Tyger Thompson listed
    as a student there, but that could just be a borrowed identity.
