Another quick story, I once had a Dutch guy in Australia tell me that his last name Hoffmeister means “House Master.” You know, from the times when they used to own slaves. Thanks for telling me that to my face, you absolute weirdo.

He’s also wrong. A “Hoffmeister” was a servent to a noble responsible for taking care of the estate. Basically what we could call a “Hausmeister” (which literally means “house master” but actually means janitor).
