Why don't you get a maid? If I was old money I'd have a maid. Just to clean up for me and shit like that, I mean. Unfortunately you can't hire a 2D maid no matter how rich you are.

>> No.1843966

>>1843955
I'm not old money, my family bought the house thirty years ago, my money is second generation, sadly.
But I don't hire a maid because I don't need one, I like cooking and there's no real need to clean the place everyday, although it'd bring company, it'd be somewhat useless.
Also, amusingly enough, we had a maid and some butler, but they got fired before I was born, from what I've been told, she was some old hag, so it's not like I care.

I'll take it you're sarcastic, but that wasn't my point actually.

"Mansion is a large dwelling house"
"Castle is a defensive structure"

A castle can be a mansion and a mansion can be a castle. Of course Scarlet Devil Mansion is not, in fact, a castle, it has no actual fortifications (and, no, the wall doesn't count as one).

>> No.1843989

but it does have THE LAKE

>> No.1843991

>>1843971
You're exagerating, a castle doesn't have to have defensive structures.
It doesn't have to be a fortified castle, you can simply look at renaissance style castles and see the lack the defensive caracteristics.
Of course, speaking using strict definitions, they aren't really castles.

>From the late 18th century to the early 20th century, as a manifestation of a romantic interest in the Medieval period, and as part of the broader Gothic Revival in architecture, many so-called castles were built. These castles had no defensive purpose, but incorporated stylistic elements of earlier castles, such as castellation and towers.

quoting a shitty wikipedia article, but you get the point, do you ?

Don't misunderstand me, I'm not saying that castles aren't defensive structures, this is their main definition, I'm just adding that there are some that don't have such a role and still are castles, they are a minority, of course.

Uh, okay, I see where you're coming from. Althought if I wanted to argue some more I'd point out those are still defensive structures, just used for stylistic purposes rather than actual defense.

I completely understand your point, until I started discussing this point with you, my main criteria was general architecture, which generally allows quick classification, although it in fact isn't a criteria.
And I'll concede to you that you're probably more in the right than I am if we were to talk strictly about such matters.

I wouldn't attack such a castle, the thought of being slain by people wearing huge dog mouse and duck suits horrifies me.

Also, I don't know if we could classify le Chateau de Versailles as one of those, I don't recall it being on the defensive side of architecture.

That castle shaped like a star is defensive against canonballs. It's designed to make them ricochet off the walls
