    Did you resist the urge to raise one eyebrow in a quizzical manner when he said that.



    Nah, you're not alone, my old man speaks pish on occasion too - just the other day he told me that United should break the bank to sign the lad from Canadia 'cos he and Carrick would be awesome together in the midfield ... I was like

    Had to settle for the giraffes and I can damn well see them at home.
    you have to catch them at happy hour. Im sure most of the royals are out then.

    there was eyebrow raisage especially since he decided to spell my name the ghey french way. I take it you never take your old man to watch that team that aint as good as us if he is making comments like that.

    I love the tourism argument, probably because it's the only justification people have left.

    1, Tourists would come anyway. People still visit the Bastille, Arc de Triumphe and all the other historical places in Francais, sans a Royal Family. They come to see the palaces and the towers, the historical buildings and artefacts. Not the wastrels. The only people still interested in them are sad Englanders with not enough in their lives, who need to liive vicariously

    2, Even if it were true, that they made us more than they cost. So fuck, they're an anachronism and demean all of us. Particullarly this latest batch, who are a laughing stock.

    These days we only go to watch the Welsh rugby internationals but he used to take me all the time when I was a lad. He hasn't been interested since Cantona left.

    Who here hasn't got hammered and felt someone up? They're in their twenties. Let them have their fun.

    I doubt having people hound you every minute of every day of your life is all it's cracked up to be.

    things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
    so, he does
    the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
    and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
    the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
    and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
    the germans are like "wtf, h4x"
    -- WW2 for the l33t

    I agree I said that. If they want to be treated like everyone else great.

    There is no pretence left of them being anything "special" or being an "example" to others, or being "role models". They just do whatever the want, fine. However you can't have it both ways. You ca't have all the privilige and say "fuck it" to the responsibility.

    Just disband the whole thing and make us a republic. Then they can do what they want and we don't have to be subjects of an institutionally sectarian monarchy.

    I really hate to jump to conclusions, but you seem dissatisfied, somehow...bitter, if you know what I mean.

    You might stop being so self-centered...think of the Canadians, for feck's sake...
