The Queen

[voice]

Yeah, missed opportunity.

[perrykneeham]

Hehe. Reigning rent free.

[mids]

Bit like the actual Royals.

This is hilarious though. The extreme far left are utterly obsessed with the Royals. They're puce with helpless fury yet can't stop obsessing about them.

[perrykneeham]

They've all got the tea towels you know.

[flatandy]

I am indeed puce with fury that they occupy any space in the media at all, let alone so much that even I have a vague idea what's going on.

Piers Morgan is utterly brilliant.

While I really wish to not have an opinion on anything monarchy related beyond "they shouldn't exist", it's been impossible to avoid the headlines over the last few weeks.

People like Piers Morgan and organs like the Daily Mail are doing everything they can to make Prince Harry seem like a decent bloke in a near impossible situation.

But I think over the last few days Harry has really been making an utter cunt of himself.

They really are all utterly rotten people. It's not just the institution, which conceptually is indefensible and vile. It turns out that the members of the institution - all of them, as far as I can tell - live up to the institution itself.

Harry going the Kardashian route is rather entertaining. It’s giving value for money, about time.

“ But I think over the last few days Harry has really been making an utter cunt of himself. ”

What has he done?

[flatandy]

Haven't you seen all kinds of headlines and clips of interviews where he's going all Kardashian?

Also, he gets to shag Kate Middleton.

Is he? I thought he was off shagging somebody else now the requisite number of kiddies have arrived.

I have seen some but nothing to make me think he’s made a cunt of himself hence me asking.

[flatandy]

If you give one tell-all interview, you're making a cunt of yourself. If you make a TV show, put out a book, and appear in multiple interviews, all whining that your brother pushed you (something that probably happens in 50% of families) and that you disapproved of your dad's remarriage (who cares) "and there'd be bodies along the way" (melodramatic cockrot) and that your mum would have felt bad about a rift between her sons (stating the bleedin' obvious) with the goal of making it all seem spectacularly important and dramatic, like you're the director and editor on Southern Charm, then you're making a cunt of yourself.

Oh with you now.

Personally I am enjoying the entertainment. About time they danced for our money.

[flatandy]

The best entertainment they could provide would be as ornaments hanging from the ramparts of Windsor Castle. They are not providing entertainment here, just irritation.

[moggyonspeed]

Probably the only time in my life you’ll find me supporting both sides, by way of supporting the collapse of the whole edifice.

[flatandy]

Can you support a collapse? Isn't that innately contradictory?

[moggyonspeed]

You know what I meant, it’s past my bedtime and my Ovaltine is getting cold.

Nighty night, booful.

[perrykneeham]

Reigning free.

Not even a peppercorn rent.

I've just seen a clip of one of his interviews. He's got that annoying American style upward inflection at the end of his sentences. What a childish chump.
