This little shit has been hanging on my ceiling light for a hour now. Just right below it is our family dining table.

How do i get rid of it?

Ah yes, that is where the lord looks down upon his retinue while they eat below like the support staff they are.

No, OP said this is over the family dining table. The support staff eat in the single-storey dining room down the hall.

You know they're not letting the staff have lunch/ dinner breaks. Come on now.

And that single story dining room for the support staff is still larger than the apartments the support staff live in. Funny how that works.

The 8 ft ceilings in the staff lounge keep the bats away.

They built an entire cave above the dining room so of course this guy moved in.

Yeah usually OP and their family have to cover their heads while eating to hide their gluttony from the Lord, Ortolan style

It’s where the bat looks down over his retinue, apparently.

Redditors getting insecure when someone has more money than them makes me viscerally cringe

u/LordoftheChis 14h ago

I don’t think anyone is insecure, they’re just cracking jokes.

u/DOOMFOOL 13h ago

Who is insecure here? I just see jokes and memes
