    Snobbery in the Lounge?

    Quite true. I believe it was advised in Sun Tzu The Art of War to 'know one's enemy' - and learning from the enemy would certainly fall under knowing him. Me, I actually would prefer killing very dry, very dirty gin martinis with 3 olives. :D

    Yeah, when you're killing peasants and White Russians ... the Czarist supporters, NOT the cocktail, knave! Although, now that I think about it ...:p

    Snobbery in the Lounge?

    Oh, well, if you're gonna get organized and have a Contrarian gang, sign me up. If CassD is Frenchie, I wanna be Rizzo (the part played by Stockard Channing) - wisecracking all the way! ;) And I found another fab test on the same site with the snob test: The Classic Dames Test!!! Check...

    The Contrarian 34% Bootlicker, 27% Toe-Stepper, 58% Obnoxious Anti-Snob! You just like being difficult, don't you. Place in society? Means nothing to you. Place in the counterculture? Look out for Number One! You seem to enjoy cutting off your nose to spite your face. "Garage rock...

    Snobbery in the Lounge?

    ROTFLMAO = rolling on the floor laughing my a$$ off. And yes, that is definitely a Mae West quote in my signature line, thanks for askin'. I've recently re-discovered her and have a whole new appreciation for her wit and turns of phrase. As for the test topics, I agree - the Bartenders...

    Snobbery in the Lounge?

    lol Make that ROTFLMAO, indy! Niiiiiiiiice! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap And with good reason, my man - what the lady has under her underpinnings is doubtless more interesting than the articles she donned and then doffed.

    Snobbery in the Lounge?

    And which, pray tell, of those tests should the wannabes take? There were a number that caught my eye, although I can't mention them here because their titles would be in violation of FL etiquette ... huh, more unmentionables ...

    The miracle of champagne.

    Niiiiiice, Doc, very nice! Thanks for the quick turnaround. Love the saucer, love the bottle of bubbly and the vintage model plane - good set up for the pic. :) Ever since I started reading this thread, my fingers have been twitching at the thought of finding some super cool art deco...

    Snobbery in the Lounge?

    :eek: Teetotaller? Me? Heavens, no! *SHUDDER* In fact, I think I need a booster shot just to get past the shock of the notion ... something in the neighborhood of 80 proof or higher! :D BTW, if court's being held in Dita's hat closet, does that mean as Lady-in-Waiting I can rifle...

    Correspondence - Find a Pen Pal

    Is that a chorus of angels singing 'hallelujah' I'm hearing?!? There really are people who still like to write letters by hand, on good stationery, with a fountain pen? Catch me, I'm swoonin'. I don't think we're in Kansas anymore, Toto - and I like it!!!

    The miracle of champagne.

    Doc - would you mind posting a picture or two of your champagne saucers with their deco-like swirl? I'd love to see them and I bet I'm not alone.

    Indeed! Men can be the bitchiest bitches out there. Take Mr. Blackwell. Please!

    Snobbery in the Lounge?

    I've got a snootful all right - and it's not even noon! (Georgia, where's my mimosa?! And skip the OJ!) :D Mtechthang: But of course, dear chap, we're all snobs - if we weren't, we'd be on AOL with the rest of the rabble out there! :eek: ShortButBrilliantClara: Are you in the...

    How tall are you, Ladies?

    I am officially undertall for my weight, my bone structure and my shoe size! Believe it or not, I weigh 180lbs but wear a size 12 trouser/jean. I'm officially five feet seven and three-quarter inches tall. My shoe size is "Extra Sasquatch" - 43 Eur, 11 US. Had I actually grown up to my...

    Snobbery in the Lounge?

    No, no, no, my fine fellow - it's just before the lights are out, when the boxers come off, that things really start to get funny! (NO tightie whities please! Sartorial snobbery at its finest, ladies and gents ... )

    The miracle of champagne.

    Nonsense! If rose is good enough for Ruinart (or any other champagne maker) to produce, those who drink it are true champagne lovers. Keeping enjoying what you like! Prosecco lovers are allowed in the club, too - prosecco is merely another type of sparkling wine, but from Italy not France...

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Oh, oops! :whistling *blush* Clearly, I have what the Germans would call a "Bildungsluecke" - a hole in my education! Thanks for the clarification on the avatar, tho' - I'd rather know than not. Still love the avatar.

    The miracle of champagne.

    Hear, hear! Champagne is for any occasion, even if the occasion is brunch or Tuesday or just because. I just wish there was a greater variety of sweetnesses available. The vast majority of champagnes and sparkling wines available in my neck of the woods are bruts and I have to admit I...
