Are We Not Gentlemen?

I have a new favorite website. It's called the Foggy Monocle, and I cannot stop reading it. Imagine combining the idiocy of your immature drunk friends over IM with the mannerisms of Victorian England. Voila!  Comedic Genius!

Despite his ability to drive up the markets, stomp out his competitors and swindle his clients, the idea of having an old nine-to-five job baffles the gentleman. Why report to the cube farm when any true gentleman knows that real work is only accomplished in the bar, the bedroom of another man’s wife and the illegal cock-fighting ring? If a gentleman must report to an office, then he demand the liberty of frequenting bars whenever he so pleases, thus punctuating his glorious day with a series of spirit-lifting beer wedges. Scared of losing such a skilled employee, the gentleman’s superiors have no choice but to allow the gentleman to march to the beat of his own drum.
