Drop the Cow!
Smacking I.T. on the back of the head!
In which Parker laments playing second fiddle, only to have young Penelope force another truism upon him.
*GROAN!*
Thank you, thank you – I’m here all week! 😀
Great male assistants? Like Alfred, Jeeves, Jarvis, Gerald and Hayate?
Okay, so they’re all fictional, but so’s Parker.
(And bonus points if you can name who all those butlers worked for.)
Point taken – but really, how thorough is one’s thinking when one is wallowing in self-pity like Parker? And, no bonus points for me – I scored a paltry 60%.
Same here. Only 60 percent for me as my success rate tailed off dramatically after the first three.
Turns out I messed up the fourth one. It should have been Geoffrey, not Gerald.
Blame my old man memory.
Well, that changes everything! No, wait – still 60%. 😐
Okay, time’s up. I shall now list the answers.
Alfred Pennyworth – Bruce Wayne – the Batman
Reginald Jeeves – Bertie Wooster – Jeeves and Wooster
Edwin Jarvis – Tony Stark – The Avengers
Geoffrey Butler – Philip Banks – The Fresh Prince of Bel Air
Hayate Ayasaki – Nagi Sanzennin – Hayate the Combat Butler
Ahem, can’t speak for the others (60% here too), but Jeeves is not a Butler! He is a Gentleman’s Personal Gentleman, or Valet. Allow Mr. Fry to explain (hope the link works).
Grr arg, I meant: can’t speak about the other’s (butlers, not commenters).
