GO! Smell Lord flowers of Likely…
November 8th, 2007 by JimGO! Smell the flowers would like to humbly introduce to you the journals and diaries of Lord Likely, aristocratic adventurer and full-time hedonist. Not for the weak of eyes, or members of the church.
What do you define as a true Gent? Do share…..
In my experience, the phrase ‘ True Gent’ is an oxymoron, I’m afraid. However, I’m willing to be persuaded otherwise…
G’Day Lord,
A true Gentleman is Subjective because every person and every culture have their own deffinition however my idea is…. a Man who opens the door, carries the shopping without being asked, helps when needed no asking just does, polite without the pretending, but not afraid to stand up if a women needs help ….. fortunately I do two men like this…. they are a rare find but they are there……ps on of the men is my son…so don’t your imagination running away there lord….lol
Huh Aussie? We’re back to debating whether the ‘gentlemen’ breed still exist ..? I thought…?
Well then! Can I attempt my definition of gentleman here without being shot down?
Can I? Can I? Can I? 
You lucky lucky chick to have not one but two such fine men! :)) Enjoy ha!
you can feel free….. I wont shoot you down…..AC
Aussie
you wrote
fortunately I do two men like this
and then went on to say one is your son. please tell me thats a typo. if not the authorities will be informed!
Oh my lud! I’m sure you dont fail to STAND UP from time to time what with your tortourous love dungeon and all?
Thank you, dear Flowers for this fine honour.
In return, I should like to present you with a special award, which you may find upon my fine journals.
Enjoy it. ENJOY IT.
THANK M’Lud…
Good on you!
Lord Likely raises the bar…AGAIN!
I’m not sure that raises the ‘bar’ is quite the right word!!!
But so gallantly done I have to say.
A gentleman in my book is just that ‘ a gentle man’ who has the manners, fortitude and intuition to look after a women exactly the way she wants without haveing to ask what it is she wants!!!!
100% agreed Mel. And that he doesn’t fiddle in public.
Still don’t get that.
Has to be balanced against the feminine demands for equality.
Opening doors, walking on the outside (the traffic side), doffing ones cap, and all other mannerisms associated with the ‘gentlemen’ are generally accepted by women, however they get very upset if we try to do too much and scream they are better than us and we should treat them as equals, etc.
Also the definition of the traditional gent was and still is somewhat distorted. These old English gentlemen were the same guys involved in work houses, class distinction and therefore suppression of the poor, slavery, pushing many large animals close to extinction, inbreeding, rampant homosexuality and abuse of small boys.
So be careful what you wish for.
For me I think I am being a gentleman when I am helping/assiting someone, being truthful and generally justifying my existence in the world.
What a great site
I always like Viz and really really liked the character of Raffles the Gentleman Thug.
Its great to see some of the old viz jokes regurgitated for all to see.
for anyone who wants to see the same jokes but far funnier buy Viz.
I am no thug, Gary. But I am a gentleman. You see, in the Victorian age, there were many, many gentlemen. More than just this Raffles character.
Now, Gary to save you the bother of replying (I dare say you have more important things to do - hahaha!) here is how the rest of the conversation will go:
Gary: yeah but you are a Victorian you stole that idea from Viz
Lord Likely (sexy): No, Gary, I did not
Gary: first a batfink ripoff now this you have no original ideas. why don’t you go back to cartoonland
Lord Likely: Cartoon land is not a real place, Gary, you nutbar.
Gary: nutbar? i saw a nut bar in a shop once, you stole that idea
Lord Likely: Gary, do be quiet. You are boring and repetitive.
Gary: you are right lord I am so lonely please hold me in your arms, lord. i want to cry. what have i done with my life? help me, help me.
Lord Likely: There there, Gary. There, there.
END.
THATS ACTUALY FUnnier than all your other stuff combined.
whre did you nick it from?
I conjured it up from my excellent mind. Some people are capable of creating things out of nothing, Gary. I dare say the only thing you create is carbon dioxide and feces.
Also, I have seen the fat, lonely, nerdy internet troll act done a thousand times before, Gary - and much better. It is time you tried to find a new act, I think.
its ‘faeces’ Lord.
for a victorian gentleman/ batfink rip off you are hugely retarded.
well done
I am sure your mother/wife/one and the same loves you.
and just briefly
cartoon land is not a real place as you rightly state.
but you are also not really a victorian gentleman are you?
your a sad, sexually frustrated ‘nutbar’ who hides behind a series of third rate comedic rip-offs.
I bet your real name is Kevin and your an accountant who at 38 still lives with mummy in your ‘love dungeon’.
I’m close I know
“You are also not really a victorian gentleman are you?”
HOLD EVERYTHING!
We have amongst our masses a bona-fide genius.
What gave it away? Was it the fact the Victorian age finished some one hundred years ago?
You are far too bright, Gary. You are wasted spending all of your time on a blog, posting comments all day long. You should be building the rocket that will transport us all to Mars, or carrying out some brain surgery or something.
you aren’t though
remember when you werent’ going to respond to me comic book nonce.
everything about you is copied.
and I can post all day long because my job allows it
you have to wait to get on the pc in your old girls bedroom after she’s entertained another one of your ‘uncles’.
your entire site and persona is as funny as famine.
Gary, being an internet paedophile is not actually a job, you do realise that, don’t you?
Also, it should be, ‘Your entire site and persona ARE about as funny as famine.’
Try and string a vaguely coherent sentence together once in a while, there’s a good chap.
so your internet paedo stuff is a hobby then.
I like the fact you don’t argue that its internet paedo stuff but argue that you are yet to earn from it.
weirdo
What? You have failed to make sense there, Gary. Those are just words in no particular order.
No surprise, really, as I dare say all you do is mash at the keyboard with your fat, stubby fingers, unable to clearly see the screen through the veil of tears in your eyes as you realise you will never be as good as me, and have in fact wasted your entire life.
Poor, useless Gary.
easily your worst attempt at humour. get a bird. seriously.
and preferably one that isn’t also your sister. you used to be unfunny but at least a ‘trier’- now your unfunny effortlessly.
is this a step forward?
I don’t know.
try going back to your rip off cartoons/viz jokes etc etc.
I bet many the child has been suckered into your puppy mobile to ’see some sketchings eh’?
Crikey, is this all still in good humour you 2?
Hmm.. is it okay to ask.. What’s the story between Gary and Lord Likely..?
As entertaining as all this has been for the rest of us, I am detecting a certain lack of ‘tongue in cheek’-ness as this ‘conversation’ has continued.
Now, now, boys, it’s all supposed to be fun on GSTF…play nicely!
Merely some jousting and p-taking on my part.
You’ll have to ask comic book man for his take on it!
Well as long as you two are ’sporting’ about it…
My tongue is lodged firmly in my cheek, my friends.
I could lodge it elsewhere, with Gary’s consent…
