Hypocrisy or Overreaction to an RP Region?

My kids call me GOD.

Pep (Grumpy Old Dad)

I know what I should have called him, thats why I would like to call him fraulein

/me sings "have a banana" and dreams of dancing the lambeth walk with a bunch of duckies.
Ding dong!

Silly Old Wanker is prolly more like it.

I'm sure they call you a lot of other things, you miserble old bugger.

That generates a female acronym.

Pep (I wouldn't want to confuse people. )

What?

(Posh people do not say "pardon?"

Mine call me wonderful.

If I had kids they would say "Who are You?" to me coz they'd be in boarding school most of time or have a nanny.
Didnt do me any harm.

/me imagines Mrs Pep, on Mr Pep's return from another lengthy business trip, at the breakfast table and saying something like, "This is grumpy old daddy, children, remember him?"

Ah 1920's - that's another thing - Jo - do remember that kids from wealthy families all had nannies and went to boarding school.

Don't you mean "Wot?"

lol

No - that's what Jig would say, you would practice your French and say "pardon?" and the Queen and I would say "What?"

Very true. And a well-studied "Wot" to jar on people's ears who know I am putting it on. When I wanna impress anyone I can "put on the pot" as they say. I am not screechy posh, but nicely clipped and the best expressor of vowels. In my school, we had elocution lessons (even today).

I had a Nanny (people raise eyebrows in disbelief but it is true) who I dearly love. My Mum was a teen when I was born and I was "restless". Later on I did go to boarding school but I didnt amount to much. School was in vicinity of Tunbridge Wells actually. In fact, I am going to meet an old school friend in a week's time so will be off air for a while.

Air...........

Oh no!

Pep (The headmaster wasn't called Joe Davies by any chance was he?)

Will and I visited the sim yesterday and it is wonderful. When we arrived, I had on my flapper's dress and Will got the freebie for his attire. The only thing Will complained about is when he put on the hat, he lost his hair. Unlike Tim McGraw who wears a hat to hide his hair loss.

We met Mila, found her to be quite pleasant. In fact, I joked about us being the giant, rich posh people of sl. Mila jokingly said she was a poor woman. It was fun.

Now being a american, midwesterner with strong southern influences, I address women as Miss, followed by their first name. I am addressed the same way. The men, Mr. followed by their first name. Inworld I met someone from Georgia and he addresses me either as Ma'am or Miss Sable. It is a sign of respect.

My grandmother came from an era where lots of women didn't drive. My grandfather drove her around until he couldn't anymore. Did my grandmother learn to drive after that? No. She took a cab whenever she/we had to go somewhere. She also felt if you wore red nail polish you were considered "fast".

I know a man who knew my Uncle in real. That was kinda heart-stopping since my Uncle is one of those solicitor types who lives in Midlands "county". I better stop getting close to id-ing my school. But I was sent to a Catholic Girl's School. High Walls LOL!

I doubt it, because the "dear" was after they had refused to follow sim rules, ignored the hostess more than once, and I'm not sure but possibly after they had left the sim, as well.

Also calling someone "dear" or "Miss" especially on a historical sim where it was perfectly acceptable to the time period, in no way is comparable to calling someone a fascist or a Nazi!

In my observation you seem to be going out of your way to blame the hosts of the sim and ignoring your friend's role in the situation (to me, the visitors were rude, and continue to be rude - the hosts have not been) perhaps because he IS your friend, who knows. Misplaced loyalty perhaps. Anyone can be wrong and perhaps, just perhaps, your friend(s) were in this instance. And as such why defend such behavior? I'd want any friend of mine to tell me if I'd been rude and insolent and carried on that way.

In my opinion, the gentleman biling himself as a gentleman was not in this instance - not in the Berlin sim even by his and his companion's own report - and not here in the forums. He also seems to feel the rules do not apply to him or his friends in either location. Naming and shaming is against forum rules yet he began a thread doing exactly that - convincing more than a fair few people to never set foot on that sim in the process.

What is gentlemanly about any of his behavior in either place, and why would you defend it?

A small P.S. to Pep - the hosts were female, the police was a female too and they were level headed. The OP was male. Why did you say it's all down to "over emotional females?"

Because he is a self-identified sexist old fart?

I didn't have the full story about the policewoman at the time, only Elric's description, and we *still* don't have Anya's deposition.

Pep (All drama in sl can be blamed on over-emotional females, anyway. )

That too.

Pep (You say it like it's a bad thing? )

QED

Not when you say it, darlin' ...
or dear ...
or Mr. ...

Yes dear.

Pep (Stealing my Latin memes too, I see!)
