    I don’t need a source to believe it. Humans are humans, and rich fucks always want to one up each other. Be it via who has the biggest rocket, mansion, boat, or, in the 12th century, tower.

          Those are words I’ve never seen, thanks. I guess I can see that, imagine some smelly poor showing up on a nag in a burlap caparison then some medieval influencer on a Percheron with a purple silk caparison pulls up alongside? All the fair maidens faint right there!
