Good evening, fair ladies and fine gentlemen of the court.
I come to you seeking answers; that is to say, assistance choosing the next path in my life. Is there any guidance anyone could offer that might help to prompt me to decide more quickly or with more ease? Perhaps a simple guideline or some straightforward advice could do the trick...
Anyway, I do hope I haven't bothered you chaps with my blathering on, and I thank you ever so kindly in advance for the feedback that you provide me which I daresay will be eloquent, fruitful and altogether hugely beneficial to my quest for enlightenment.
Cheerio lads!
P.S. Please do forgive me if there are any discrepancies with my grammar or dictation; it has been a while since I've written anything at all. And again, Thank You!

Sir,

I am forced to admit and apologize that i am not able to be of much help. Indeed, without a firmer understanding of your current life situations, goals, and desires it would be sheer folly for me to attempt to guide you in any meaningful way.

Good evening old chaps.

I come to you today beseeching your opinion regarding an incongruous colloquy I was inveigled into. My mother, whom had been quite reclusive as of late, invited me to go gallery hopping the other day. Stunned by the impulsive invitation, I jauntily accepted. After all, it had been an entire season since we last socialized. It was only when we finally met at the first museum that I realized why she requested to see me in such communal surroundings. She was significantly skinnier, since the time we last met. Immediately she baited me with “Notice anything different?” She knows it pains me to state the obvious, but she is my mother so begrudgingly I replied “Indeed, good work.” And I had hoped she would just let the topic die, but about half an hour later while I was studying a rather intricate brass statuette; my mother called me over to speak to her new “friend”. “Tell her how much weight I’ve lost,” was the first thing that came out of her narcissistic mouth as I approached. I merely glanced at the loose skin that dangled from her wing of an arm thinking to myself how evident it was that she had lost about a hundred pounds within a very short period of time. This new “friend” of hers didn’t need to be told anything. My mother was simply trying to torture me by putting me in the spotlight to expose my greatest pet peeve. If you ever met her, you would know she does things like this on purpose to everyone, so she can make herself seem more civilized by comparison. I inhaled calmly to ready myself for the fight, and proceeded to play her game. “Her ass hanged down to her kankles.” I smirked, knowing that I had hit her so far below the belt that she would not pester me about the topic again. “Don’t be glib,” she snapped, “I raised you with better manners than that.” I was mortified. Glib…glib! That bitch called me glib! Sirs, you may call me ungentlemanly, but you do not call me glib. To do so is to imply that I put no thought into my words, which simply is not the case! Needless to say I still politely chatted with her during the rest of the evening, escorted her from museum to museum, and treated her to dinner, but there was pure hate in the back of my smile every time I looked her in the eye. Do you think I should forgive her?

So I was having a high town fancy to-do over at mine manor a fortnight ago, and when I called for Chardonnay, Chardonnay, my femme, was not on hand to deliver my hourly glass of Chardonnay.

It was not overseen. I had noticed her familiar smile falter before; we had been on a hunting outing to the northern forest of my estate, and I could not decide for the life of me, which to choose; my Remington or my colt. While I was plagued like a commoner about what best to hunt water fowl with, Chardonnay, that squeeze I had made known earlier was aloof. I stroked my moustache with panache as I planned my move carefully, like a Russian Tsar might plan a chess game.

Before long, the expedition was over, and we trekked back to the my humble castle (we stopped at my lodge for tea and sandwiches first though, as I have quite the expansive grounds). Chardonnay gave me my usual Chardonnay, and I sipped it, gauging it for effervescence. As it was as abominable is quality as it was in presentation, I immediately called for another.

"Come now, quickly! Our foray has left me quite dead on my feat, and I wish a drink so fine as to awaken me".

Her face scarlet, she stormed from the room. I though nothing of it, such is the manner of these eastern women.

The procreation was unsatisfactory (it is usually NOT in the missionary position, and NOT for the sole purpose of recreation, I assure you,) and my member bid her whore-box goodbye, and I requested my man-servant, Nigel, come and towel mine chassis off, as was post-fornication ritual.

part 2 cometh soon, I assure you

Embarrassed to have her bosom exposed to the cruel jowls of Nigel, she grabbed a blanket from the bed and made her leave, in a manner most foul. And, to complete her crass behaviour, she did not bow to me as she left.

Now this leaves today's scandal. I simply cannot make up my mind, two different advents may arise from this. I was stumped, for days I could not understand what to do, but them finally it hit me, like the plague hits a bumpkin.

I should chose Remington.

This depiction is most related, twas mine own face when I came to such a horrific conclusion.

My fine, /class/y gentlemen, I wish to inquire something of you. To what degree does a cane improve one's classiness, if at all, and which type of cane (whether it be make, materials used to craft, style, etc) fellows of more refined tastes such as yourselves find to be the most appealing. Would you carry one even if you weren't dependent upon it for mobility, or perhaps conceal a blade inside??

I eagerly await your responses.

It depends on the sort of appearance you which to make. If personal defense is the question, you cannot go wrong with a cane of strong wood, with a sturdy metal topper.

I used to use a full-sized brass framed gentlemen's brolly, it doubled as a cane when needs must. Unfortunately some uncouth youth decided it would be fun to snatch it and throw it off the pier one evening to which the wind whisked it away. Unfortunately for them the evening did not bode well when one of them fell off the pier in drunken stupor, an ambulance was called.

I have the pleasure of being on the supply side for material for your fine windup. I have sold quite a few 78s recently, and it always warms me up to see there are still collectors of fine shellac. Cheers.

If I might inquire to the population of this /class/y board on their take of rolling tobacco and if they prefer it to cigarettes. Also if they have a preference if they have tried this.

Bugler!?
Simply absurd.
only Peter Stokkebye provides the all natural, full bodied flavor I desire. And in a number of varieties. Amsterdam Blend being my favorite strong assortment. Stockholm for lights.
American Spirit organic is a fallback; the price and flavor renders it a less desirable product.

Enough beating round the bush gents, what is THE FINEST thing in life?

My belief is that a well written book is or a good woman at an acceptable price.

As for me personally I can say the FINEST moment of my life was giving an old man a blood glucose test in his home, on his farm, out in the mountainous rural stretches of the 3rd world.
As of today I still cannot fathom why it was the FINEST thing I have ever done, I just know that at the time it was the most intense and moving thing I had ever experienced.

Well gentlemen, it is about time we have a chat about a very important product of our lives that is often disregarded: toilet paper.

Now, we are no common riffraff so let’s not talk about brands like Charming and so on.
I want to talk about fancy toilet paper. Which brands do you prefer? Why do you prefer it over other brands?

Now remember to answer like a gentleman, after all, this is a very important aspect of our lives and should be handled with class.

Personally, I prefer the stiffer, more generic brands when I'm visiting my porcelain throne. I find that it holds it's shape better when it's folded into origami. Of course if you are new to the toilegami scene you could always invest in "Heart" toilet paper.

Long-Haired_Gentleman 12/10/14(Sun)21:47 No. 1636

It warms me to know that another man takes part in the ill-known art of toilagami. I typically have a book or two laying around my aboad when i am traveling to practice my paper folding techniques. Although, I do completely agree with you that toilegami is a fine way to pass time, when using the facilities I prefer a much different paper for when I am finishing my business. Unfortunately, it is difficult to find my favorite brand of toilet paper that comes in a small size container, as it is normaly exported from Vietnam. Although I do not love the brand enough to talk to the owner of the company, but I do enjoy it enough to purchase it at a slightly higher price for a small package of it.

I spend most of my time in California lately; I find it behooves me to be near my business interests. The nouveau rich rule this place, true, but I'm not generally bothered by them in my own estates and there are a precious few persons of more dignified bearing here.

Sophisticated Gentleman 12/09/07(Fri)13:12 No. 1508

I hail from the rowdy shacks in Sidoarjo, Java, in the Spice Islands. Rowdy lot, and my own family has been disconnected with the clan for my grandmother's rather... 'rambunctious' activities. But with the efforts of my father and myself, we've been able to bring the family back to good standing and once again enjoy the finer sophisticated atmosphere that's so rarely found in Indonesia.

Long-Haired_Gentleman 12/10/14(Sun)21:36 No. 1635

I was born in the northern regions of Binghamton, New York, and I moved across the country for a few years before finally making my home in Tucson Arizona. And, although I do agree with Sophisticated Gentleman that being a gentleman is not restricted to any location, it appears that way in the area I reside in. What this area lacks in intelligent individuals, it makes up for with spellbinding scenery as well as a very rich culture. The Native American reservations are very polite, and do not fit the stereotype in the slightest.
