Personally I've not found that to be true. Neither are worth sweet FA outside of Quatloos.

Will making repeated donations lead to the proposal of getting a title being received sooner than it otherwise would have done? :wink: :whistle:
Well since Longdog and Doublelong are ahead of you, there might not be any length related titles left.

So how about Videocrash Bingewatcher?

I was thinking more like $125,000 ( paid from my personal lawyer ) but if a peerage can't be bought then I will have to spend it on a hooker.

Only $125,000? I can trump that.

In addition to the Chili Dog Irresponsible Acts Fund, there is also a Root Beer Fund for cars that go entirely too fast an as always, my own 'Hookers and Blow Fund".

Even counting the transportation to London, £125,000 will buy a lot of Hookers and Blow. We could probably host a party for Johny Depp with that kind of coin.

As always, my "Special Insructions for Travelling to the UK"* apply.

If we could have chosen our own titles, I shudder to think of what I would have chosen for myself. "Lord High Executioner of the Illuminati" was one which I recall as coming to mind, before I got my title.

I was more than a little bemused wdhen I got mine. Then I started imagining myself a high falutin' noble at Versailles (the French one, not kentucky, ya rube) I'm pretty sure JJ gave it to me. It was before Webhick was even a member.

As a dyed in the wool socialist and republican I have nothing but contempt for honours like this and would only accept one so as not to give offence to other less deserving recipients.

Alternative version from the pre-Blair era:

The People's flag is palest pink,
It's not as red as you might think.
Let all white collar workers cheer,
A Labour government is here
We'll nationalise things bit by bit,
So nobody will notice it.
And just to prove that we're sincere
We'll sing The Red Flag once a year.
