Notice how I didn’t insult you at all, yet you felt the need to personally attack me? Y’all talk about us being rude when y’all are just as trashy as the rest of us LOL
And “Street’s”? Tf are you talking about?

You haven't pissed me off. I wish she would try that after she's ended her period of mourning. I think that hairdo would be a very good look for Her Majesty.

What do you mean? What should she try?
 
I almost regret starting this thread. Who would have thought members, that have no links to the commonwealth whatsoever, could be so rude?
Yea, who would’ve thought? Lmaooo PLEASE! the members of the British royal family are conniving vermin! They should’ve abolished the monarchy AGES ago!

To call another countries Head of State vermin esp at the time of someone's death after decades of public service just shows you up for what you are.Just remember your recent Head of State was Donald Trump.Enough said.

Good, can’t wait for the Queen to die and hopefully the crown can fade away. If the royals want to continue living at Buckingham palace they can get a job in the gift shop.

Totally uncool, dude. Really.

Lmaoo Ok? I don’t idolize politicians. If Trump dies or Biden dies, I’m not gonna throw a hissy fit when someone makes fun of their deaths. You Brits should do the same. It’s pathetic how high you hold these figureheads. Theyre scum. <3

I am sick and tired of the pathetic need of stupid people to care so much about those, who don't know that they exist, and, would not care about these people anyway.

I can hardly wait until that boy of harry and meagan starts talking in ebonics during a visit to the UK. "Yo, dis be da duke, my baby daddy!". It would appeal too all of the simplistic, fat slob tabloid readers with a first grade education.

Yea, well at least I’m not an actual despicable human being like Philip and his family. :joy:
So we hear.
From you.
But why would you consider Philip despicable? I mean, the human being? He was born into two royal houses. He opened his eyes and there he was.
Given that starting point, how has he done?
He was certainly a PR officer's nightmare (but that's a big part of what I liked about him, though I was not a great fan).
But he did what was on his plate — and he did it until he was in his mid-90s, only cutting back a few years ago.
He was pretty exemplary about his duties.

If you hate the notion of monarchy, be my guest. But why dump on people who are quite adventitiously placed in a role you happen to despise?

An earlier poster pointed out that many of the countries that are clearly among the 'advanced' do maintain monarchies at no cost to their status as democracies.

The idea of separating the head of state from the head of government has advantages that any wakeful American should see in the wake of the Trump administration.

(Of course, this can be done constitutionally, while leaving both posts answerable to the people — a kind of presidential/prime ministerial combination that we see in a lot of countries.)

But the fact is that many of the countries that retain a monarchy don't seem to be the horror shows you envision.

And a man happens to have recently died who, through simple fate, performed, pretty faithfully, over nearly seven decades, the duties that a royal role demanded.

No matter how you feel about the Royalty, Philip's death is hardly the moment to have your little shit, with all due regard for bowel regularity.

If you think I’m gonna read all that, then I’m sorry to tell you, it’s a fart in the wind. I say what I want to say. I don’t care about how i made you Brits feel. You typed that entire essay for no reason, I’m afraid. .
 
Wake up... Stop pitying the fortunate.

It really doesn't make much sense to speak of anyone as fortunate when a loved one passes away. Sure, some are more materially impacted by a death than others, but it's still the case that anyone deserves sympathy with respect to loss of life and the grief that accompanies it.

I am not a Brit.
Also, the point of that fart in the window has little to do with the comprehension any particular poster brings to it.
