Disaster The real cost of inbreeding - Royalfags schedual wedding on UKs version of superbowl Sunday

So I picked this up on the BBCs "what the papers say" this morning and went to find the sauce.

Obs in the meantime the owners of the Mail had screamed at the editor, that the Royal Wedding was supposed to make us plebs all feel good and fluffy about our masters, not criticise them for fucking up the economy for a generation, so...

And the cunts have made it a Saturday to deliberately rob us of a public holiday, cunts.

 

[ES 148]

I want William to wait until midway through the vows and then start screaming "THE WINNER OF THE FA CUP FINAL IS LEICESTER CITY, FUCK YOU HAZZA" and then Jamie Vardy bursts through the doors and William gives him the trophy while Harry is attacked and tied up by a team of hired football hooligans, all under the approving gaze of the Queen. Free tea and biscuits for all ensures, and William declares that Britain is not leaving the EU, it is absorbing them, declaring war on terrorism and his intent to turn Harry into a cyborg super-soldier built to remove kebab. In commemoration of the day, the entire year is declared a bank holiday for British citizens.

I don't know if they'll manage the tea and biscuits, though.

We weren't going to get a bank holiday anyway - I remember there being a lot of griping about that when their engagement was announced. Either way, neither the FA Cup nor their wedding is something I'm likely to give a statistically significant shit about.

Glad all the money in the budget is out to this and not local councils. Oh yes, it’s not like we’ve had cutbacks on schools, homeless shelters and fucking hospitals.

It's because of the shocking lack of grubby street urchins to touch their forelock and compulsively say "Gawd bless 'er maj". That and the match girls.

I'm for the abolition of the monarchy on principle, but the economic argument isn't on the side of the abolitionists. Even if you don't count income from the Crown Estate because you consider it the property of the nation, the income they generate from tourism, etc, exceeds the public costs towards them.

Agreed.

I'm embarrassed that in [current year] we have an hereditary head of state but then think "at least its on the cheap side".

Yeaaaaaah the FA Cup Final is nothing like your cultural observation of Superbowl Sunday.

You watch it if your team is playing, or if you have shit all else to do.

If you don't follow any football team, you will pretty much fail to know its happening.

Having a Cup Final party here would be fully exceptional.

You realize I'm like actually in the UK?

 

[Doug_Hitzel]

Yay, two things I don’t care about.

 

[Zarkov]

For some reason I consistently fail to give a fuck about anything that happens on that shit-pile of an island.

You know, in ancient games of Royalty, the losing teams would often be executed by the winning team.

It's true and you should fucking look it up!


Anyway it's hilarious watching the British twist themselves into knots as they're forced to choose between soccer and the royals. I bet half of England will drag their kids TV into the living room so they can have both on and be extra British that day.

There is a sequence in Kate Atkinson's Behind the Scenes at the Museum where a particularly disastrous family wedding takes place the same day as England play in the 1966 World Cup Final. It happens much as you describe.

@Chemical snorfare ffs lad you know we don't go in for that fucking ballsports yay party faggery that lot across the sea do. We refuse to watch the cup final because our team is not in it, like normal people

 

[Chaos Theorist]

At least the Pubs, Takeaways and Taxis will have a good day I guess.

 

[Slowboat to China]

Forget the cup. May 19 is also the day Anne Boleyn was executed. Considering that bluff King Hal was himself the redheaded second son of a monarch, I'm thinking Meghan should be getting a really, really good pre-nup.

 

[CWCissey]

Now I have to decide what I give less of a shit about. The wedding or football.

The wedding. Any non-Elizabeth royal is just a rich person with a fancy title nowadays.

I don't like sports so I tend to not care about it regardless of country. In the US Superbowl Sunday is just an excuse to get drunk off your ass and eat like a pig. But it's way bigger when your team is playing. But I'd have no idea if my team was winning anything at all unless I heard somebody talk about it or saw it on the boring part of the news i.e. sports.

There are still Royals spergs in the US. But it doesn't have quite the same numbers as it did back in the Diana days. Diana was constantly in the news and you couldn't get away from it even if you wanted to.
