Is there anything more patrician than reading on a plane?

Excuse me?

I saw a young lad, possibly eastern European reading an old 19th century leatherbound tome next to me on a plane. Now I have a large collection of vintage books, not for collecting only, for reading, but the way this guy thumbed through it like a pleb was frightening enough but then I realised that all his books were probably like that and that he was doing so because he could afford to...
>Patrician
Let us recall the traditional European aristocratic disdain for bookish learning.

Fuck off, you cunt.

A thread posted an image of a fat bugs bunny (it might still be in the catalog) and one of the first posts was "bugs, easy on the carrots" or something and it gained an intense amount of replies, despite it not being funny. It's mainly people nagging to be part of the screengrab.

That's normie tier. Patrician is thinking.

No! Wait! Getting drunk on a plane while listening to audiobooks! Ay, there's the rub.

Ah, yes. Because if there's one thing I enjoy, it's 50°c heat and no shade. Really curdles the brainmeat.

Reading on your son's funeral

The noise of the plane drowns out pretty much everything, it's great.

Either that or it's a family heirloom. Between my parent's and grandparent's libraries there's probably a literal ton of books like that in my family.

yeah, figures.
but how often do you take yours out for a spin on a plane?

>>9786869

Usually never, because I hate reading Fraktur.

Looks like Dali was a fucking pleb

Not that guy but I did bring my 1800s book with me on the train once. I was stopped by a very nice elderly couple that I had a nice conversation with.
Said it was very unusual to see someone reading such old books and I probably didn't have any friends because of it.
Kinda hurt at the time, but they were very nice, so I tried not to let it get to me.

>>9786889
>probably didn't have any friends because of it.
wtf? you should have told them that they too, being old, probably don't have any friends either. senile dementia I guess, or proletarians.

>>9786900
They meant that reading 200 year old books on public trains usually requires the kind of specialized interest that you don't get if you're regularly meeting people and socializing.
Besides, it was true at the time.
I have friends now, and meet them regularly. Incidentally, I don't read 200 year old books on trains anymore.
Tactlessness isn't the same as maliciousness. Since I'm borderline anyway, I try extra hard not to take things personally.

>>9786955
what was the book?

>>9786965
Kurz und Quer Durch Indien by S. Wörrishöffer 1884

>>9786975
I love those old travelogues too.

Reading in space

>>9786987
Yeah, it's pretty great. I don't think it's a real travelogue though.
