“Count” is not a valid title in the British peerage. The equivalent rank in the UK is “earl”. Though if he wins, I think it’d be a moment of immense cultural significance so he should immediately be elevated to the Lords as a life peer, just to make the title official. He can be Britain’s only living count.
The Norman-derived equivalent count (from Latin comes) was not introduced following the Norman Conquest of England though countess was and is used for the female title. Geoffrey Hughes writes, “It is a likely speculation that the Norman French title ‘Count’ was abandoned in England in favour of the Germanic ‘Earl’ […] precisely because of the uncomfortable phonetic proximity to cunt”.[7]
I imagine that Count Binface simply doesn’t fear such proximity.
Nope. But I did discover that is based in Serbia, and I felt that I couldn’t recommend it based on that (e.g. if there were privacy issues, I’m not sold that the legal regimen would be strong enough for much to happen to the company).

Hmm. Apparently in said system, the wife of an earl is a countess.

To think we were this close to having Count Grey tea…
(nothing funny about it, just fun to imagine an alternative timeline)
I’m going to take this opportunity to ask a very off topic question:
Did you give up kagi?

Lot of cunts, only one count?
One! One count binface! Ah ah ahhh! – another count.
But “viscount” is? What the hell kind of scam are they running over there?
Hmmm… it seems there might be something off about this system of “nobility”.
But it’s absolutely one on Sigma IX!
