I googled "eldridge horror" and I'm enjoying all of the posts that meant to say eldritch. Though I suppose if you don't read Lovecraft or partake in nerdom, eldritch isn't exactly an everyday word, and I can see how it could be misheard.

Also fucking brilliant if intentional here. That gentleman is absolutely one Lord Eldridge, if I've ever seen one.

Native: "Tunga m'matwa?" (what the fuck is that?)

Dandy: "My dear savage, you look upon the esteemed Lord Eldridge of Banglesbury!"

Native: "Noka wat'ay?" (why does he look like that?)

Dandy: "My good savage, I've no idea what ever the fuck you're saying."
