** In ''Literature/TheFifthElephant'', Vimes is irritated by his [[TryToFitThatOnABusinessCard excessively long list of titles]] (including both Sir and Duke, which is redundant) and jokingly adds blackboard monitor to the end of them. The dwarf he's talking to describes the task of erasing words so new ones can be written as an important responsibility only given to the trusted, and Vimes later learns was not humoring him. To some dwarves [[SubvertedTrope this is indeed a position worthy of recognition]], while others consider erasing words at all a sin and use the title completely seriously and with venom.

First he asks if Weston would murder, then if he'd betray English to the Germans, and then - most awful at all - if Weston would publish lies as research in a scientific periodical. When Weston agrees to that last one, Ransom exclaims, "May God have mercy on your soul!" It says something about Weston's character before his turn that breaking research guidelines is the only line Ransom couldn't see him crossing.
