Right. It should be "snyde".

Incidentally, the "." key on your keyboard seems to be sticky.

What's a "bounce up"? I couldn't find anything in the usual online
slang dictionaries.

Jim is one of life's underachievers and is jealous of those with more
than him, be it knowledge, money, etc. The Big Farmer is a local (to
Jim) who is, apparently, rather well endowed financially.

Jealous of what?.... people like..YOU?

Oh wait!

"If you have narcissistic personality disorder, you may come across as
conceited, boastful or pretentious. You often monopolize
conversations. You may belittle or look down on people you perceive as
inferior. You may feel a sense of entitlement — and when you don't
receive special treatment, you may become impatient or angry. You may
insist on having "the best" of everything — for instance, the best
car, athletic club or medical care."

Ding Dang Do!

Because I implied that professionals can be a knowledge source I am
jealous of them?

What sort of convoluted, inane logic is that?

The concept of "Big Farmer" is utterly meaningless to me; must be a heritage
thing from the days of the manor lord getting first crack at the wife after
a peasant wedding.

Though it all could be just a knee jerk reaction to the fact that most
people over here view the concept of royalty and titles archaic and
silly.
