Greetings, loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader must admit he must have been educated in a very common fashion. He’s never (ever) heard of Debrett’s Peerage and Baronetage. Nor has he ever heard of Debrett’s Correct Form.

Apparently these august publications have been in circulation since 1769. They have (apparently) been guides to correct behaviour and conduct amongst the upper classes of British society. More recently, namely in the latest edition, the proper Debrett’s has started to dust off its Victorian image (or Georgian image if you go all the way back to 1769) and do some updating. Thanks to Reuters your Maximum Leader has learned that Debrett’s now offers advice one night stands and cautions against back alley grope-fests.

Well… What can one say about that? Other than to say, “Good show ole boy. I’ve always wondered the proper form to use when debasing oneself.”

Now your Maximum Leader knows that Mrs Villain is well versed in good behaviour from Emily Post. Your Maximum Leader must admit that he always relied on Judith Martin, mainly because she had a column in the Washington Post and seemed more in touch with Washington. Indeed, your Maximum Leader’s saintly mother has a copy of Ms Martin’s guide to excurciatingly correct behavior. Frankly, your Maximum Leader can’t imagine either Ms Post or Ms Martin writing about proper conduct surrounding a one night stand.

Call your Maximum Leader unfashionably prudish, but he just doesn’t really think there ought to be a “proper form” for the ole “wham, bam, thank you ma’am.”

Then again, your Maximum Leader wasn’t born an aristocrat…

Oh yes… Your Maximum Leader should mention that he must bookmark the Debrett’s site - as they do have a useful social season calendar. He’s surprised he’s never heard of Debrett’s from someone like the esteemed Mr. Seal or the very cultured Mrs. P…

Carry on.
