Q: Should I leave my 1927 Gold-plated Rolls Royce Corniche to my Ayi?

I don't really have a point to this, other than to rub in your faces what I have and you don't...so please do not think I'm being pretentious.

 

I looked at my platinum/titanium Rolex during my half-hour flight on my Gulfstream G650ER (it can carry my Rolls so I could not go less ostentatiously) whilst en-route to my wife's hometown.

 

I thought about how it takes my ayi a solid six hours by mule to get to one of my apartments and six back, all for a 10-hour workday (I don't want her taking advantage of me so her lunch and naptime are added to the workday hours!)

My wife badgers me endlessly about why I don't even drive the Rolls and how the ayi could better put it to use. I know the ayi could use it, and I could, as I have half a brain, make my own decision on the matter, but I thought it would be better (and NOT to seem pretentious!) to ask for your advice. Should I give my Rolls to my ayi?

 

Hahaha! Fools! I have no intention of doing that! It's just another ploy to get you to think that I may actually be a kind-hearted and altruistic person and not a bottom-dweller who has no purpose in life other than to be a life support system for my genitals!

 

Now, I'm not a female, so I don't expect any of you to hasten to throw yourselves at my feet (and lick them, lick them nice and clean!) and offer advice and try to seduce me; but I am needy, a certified attention whore, and a top-notch narcissist to boot.

 

To recap: I have stuff that peasants from my village don't have, I want you to know that I have stuff that peasants from my village don't have BUT I don't want you to think that I am a peasant from my village because I have stuff and I live in Shanghai. I also want you to answer me because that validates my existence when I'm not being used as a mattress-hole with a name.

 

Unrelated: So, Suckerberg runs a Chinese marathon w/out a mask...big deal. He should try living here for a few years.

the problem with analogy sarcasm of a competing post is the other party has to understand sarcasm, an asian defect that i have not find a cure for, by the way you can park a g5 in weihai for 22000 rmb a month rent but the bastards always overcharge for the fuel so i put it back in davao city, my pilot likes the food there.

Wow. You fly to your wives hometown in your private jet? I gave up on that years ago. Nowhere to park the bloody thing Smile

Sinobear:

Aye, that's true, but wherever I want to fly, I just pay the local peasants to build an airstrip, even if it requires clearing farmland and leaving generations w/out means of livelihood...c'mon man! When in Rome...

What's wrong with you liberal elitist snobs? Afraid to create noise pollution with a helicopter? That's what's wrong with this country nowadays: nobody wants to hurt eachother anymore.

well,,, as you know I'm a bit old school.  It does carry a Rolls-Royce though~

Sinobear:

I prefer the Corsair (actually, the Stuka (JU-87) was more awesome just for the in-cowling, air-induced siren alone)

Place yer bets: Is the mysterious down-voter "Its Royal Narcissist" and sock-puppets or Guoxiong and sock-puppets?
