    Idk, this has more personality to it than the beige nightmare a lot of folks live in. Even if that personality smells like stale cigarettes and Cutty Sark.

      Apparently Cutty Sark is a whiskey, which presumably is what you meant, but the first DDG result is a British naval ship which … Also kinda makes sense?

        Many liquor brands have a sailor/pirate theme. I never saw the appeal personally, but I guess it just plays off the stale “sailors drink a lot, amirite?” meme.

          I cannot decide whether I’d call my parents classy. I don’t think they were deficient in that manner but I’m not sure whether they had a lot, either.

        I’m fine with that. Made it a point over the last 30 years to get used to looking at them. I let 'em run the house. Figure if there’s enough food for a predator, best let them work for me.

        Funny note: My Filipino wife is disappointed we don’t have house lizards. Aside from their obvious use, apparently they’re lucky.
