Is it possible to give my butler a little assertiveness training?

Because frankly, he's a bit of a ponce.

  • Alternatively, you could give him a stack of wine, WalruZ, and then he'll be a wine ponce!  Just like T.V.s Oz Clark!

  • yeah, I'd like my butler to be more like a friend and not "if I may be so bold to venture if you please ever so humbly madamsir" all the time.

  • One notion to address this would be to have a number of butler personae, from which one could select:

    Ideas might include:
    a) Friendly (Hey, CTP, how's it going?  Just back from your coin run I see!)
    b) Kvetchy (So you finally had time to return.  After three days. No, no, I'm fine, thanks for NOT asking).
    c) Punk/Goths (Oh. Hi.  <drag of ciggie> 'Sup?)
    d) Angry (I am totally out of gifts to give to YOUR visitors, and it's all your fault)

    Feel free to take this ball and run with it.

  • e) Stoot  (I'm working on your packages, you'll get them soon.)
    f) Tii  (pbzzzt.  Packages detected.)
    g) Hipster (I would tell you about the 25 credits you could get from facebook, but that's so over.)

  • I'm quite happy with my butler's personality, but I LOVE these alternatives!

  • I think an animated Stoot as your butler would be an AWESOME prize for anything that... needs a prize.

  • Oh well, I'm the  only one  who likes like my butler playing Jeeves to my Wooster. His madamsirs are said with such disdain. He knows he has the superior intellect. He's making fun of me and in no way needs assertiveness training

    PS I'd like an animated Stoot as well though
