Damn, I think the Principessa outranks the rest of us!

Celeste, Countess Titte-Münche

(who still thinks we need our own Debrett’s)

Congratulations, Tara Marie!

YAY, Tara Marie!

Just about.  I think there’s an Empress somewhere.

OK, I hate to show my ignorance, but what is Pudendomme supposed to be? I’ve gotten most of the titles so far, but that one went right over my head.

Dammit.  Still low peer on the pole… yikes that sounds indecent.

Baroness Huntinne-Muffine

Maili was crowned Empressa Giumpesbonnes, so that has to be the most impressive title thus far… I love search engines.

A Principessa outranking us? It’s possible, but some of us still fondly remember the Duchy of Grand Fenwick and its military expertise.  Don’t sell those of us at the ducal level short. 

Oh, and welcome to the ranks of the peerage, your highness! 

Sincerely,
Twitterpants

Hmmm, Principessa, I like that. 

I figured you’d get around to it eventually.  It’s been a busy week--a law suit, good gossip, ARCs and bisexuality--that’s a lot going on.

Thanks ladies.

Titte-Munche:

I would love to see the SB Debrett’s.  And then I’d like to read the Regency based on its members.

If you look up “pudendum” in the Wikipedia you’ll get a full color graphic of what it is. Warning: image is not work safe!

OMG—All I could do is stare at that picture like I’d never seen any of that stuff before!!  Do you get a similar picture when you enter “penis”—must go check now.  And all I was thinking before was how much I’ve loved the word “pudendum” since I started studying Latin in 9th grade (and let me tell you—some of the dirtiest literature around was written initially in Latin, a just reward for all that studying!).

Maybe that should be the next contest, Twitterpants—come up with a fake history of the SB peerage or write a dishy inside story about them. :-)

Oooh, I want to be the evil duchess who keeps eliminating all the sweet young things who think their purity, innocence and beauty will save them from life’s hard times and get them the hero.  I want to be portrayed as old (but still strikingly attractive), rich, happy and fully stocked with boytoys.

“The Memoirs of Twitterpants”

Sure to be a bestseller and a RITA nominee.

“Eliminating them” like Countess Bathory did? Or did you have something less bloodthirsty in mind?

Oh, I don’t mind sending them gently into that good night with a nice dose of rat poison.  Less mess and fuss that way.

Boy, I get the warning that it’s not work safe and I go and look anyway. This naturally got me thinking of my title Marquise de Bacque-Dorre, which frankly tickles me almost as much as the Buttsecks image of the owl that y’all posted one time.  I then did a google image search so I could see that cute lil’ stinker again. 

Yes, this is really what librarians do with their Internet time at work.  Scary isn’t it?

I once read a book where the word pudendum was way too overused and it ended up killing the love scenes.

Congratulations, Tara Marie!

...I have brought a live chicken for your table…

I once read a book where the word pudendum was way too overused and it ended up killing the love scenes.

See, I’m picky in this regard. On one hand, I don’t like a lot of clinical sounding words in my sex scenes, but I don’t want the euphemisms either. I guess it’s pretty hard to balance in some ways.

Congrats, Tara.  Love your title.

Renée, Baroness Schäve-Püsse

Mmmm.  I can just imagine the guile, machinations,and behind-closed-doors delectations that elevated some of us to our esteemed ranks. Surely it would be the hottest read around!
