It's completely annoying. Must be some weird remnant of the social structure from the Dark Ages. The Lords and the serfs. The more things change, the more they remain the same.

Agreed.

Monarchy and titles are bullshit.

The idea that someone's blood is better than someone else's is pretty offenisive

They can't help being insufferable twits as that
stems from centuries of inbreeding in order
to keep the land and houses the wealth within
small circle of families.
Occasionally they are married off to foreigners
to strength the bloodline but the partners
are always considered commoners.
You could liken it to dog or horse breeds but they
can trace their ancestry across at least a thousand years
and beyond !

Caste and class systems have been a universal feature of human social structures from time imemorial - because they work and are rooted in truth. I wouldn't expect idiots to understand that though!

Re: Why Do Pretentious, Insufferable Twits From England Go Around Calling Themselves 'Lord'?
I'm English born/half-Irish with Irish Republican sympathies (not Irish Republican violence though! am very peaceful). I've been told all about the British Monarchy/Titles by the Irish, how they stole lands/property & businessess with brutal force centuries ago here in the UK & Ireland.
Basically, the sooner the 'system' is crushed the better. British MP Tony Benn gave up his title to be become a comman man, MP, & explains the UK does not have a democracy while we have to swear allegiance to some outdated middle-aged regime in charge of our daily lives. The UK is a dicatorship, but with bio-robotic puppets who are used to discipline the common people into submission to the Monarchies demands. They're just a fungus of 'respectable' gangsters/satanic masons with no empathy who are steeped in blood, weath and power they don't deserve.

The whole fucking lot of them should piss off, Monarchy, Lords & Titled creeps with land & wealth that belongs to the common people, the Church/Religion, get rid of the lot of them. Britian is responsible for more WARS/Conflicts in the last few centuries than any other, leaving old Empire countries in a 'bloody mess!' We wouldn't have Arab Terrorists if if wasn't for ex-British rule, who carved up land as they were leaving, leaving people to fight amongst themselves. As soon as I walk out my front door I'm on camera everywhere I go! Having dual UK/Irish nationality, after been told the history of the Brits while in Ireland has really opened up my eyes. We Want Our Country Back..!!

Because "Your Effeteness" was already taken by the French.
