The original kardashians. Parasites who add zero value to society

Imagine how much $$ they saved having it in the middle of the night.

Not a fan of the monarchy, but still there is something special about a Royal Wedding. Other than being son of Lady Di, the People’s princess, Harry is an accomplished soldier, not afraid to get his hands dirty even though born to priviledge. Interesting that the largest support for the royalty from Brits is those on the right of the political spectrum the Conservatives generally support the Royals by over 80%.
In Canada, the cost is about $100M a year for the Governor General and the 10 LGs and does seem like a waste of money. On the other and, it does give us a feeling of being different from our American cousins.

Had to work but, my Wife and our friend watched it and DVR'd it. The Kardashians are trash. The Brits keep it classy. I liked the fact that they had a minister from Chicago. Preach on I'm sure there were many people that had never experienced energy quite like that in a religious setting.

Brings that country a TON of tourism........probably a pittance of an expense when you factor that in. Hard to see that much history and tradition anywhere else in the world (at least within walking distance or a short drive). Been all over Europe, and there's always plenty to see in London.

The rest of the argument isn't about cost / benefit, it's about the system that is there to protect entrenched privilege - the opposite of the American ideal. It's the big difference between the UK and the US and why you guys are (on average) richer than us. -
I bloody slept through it!! 8 - (

It’s hard to believe that some people still cling to the idea that there is a magic vagina ordained by God that makes anyone who pops out of it special.
That said, the old bird is tough as nails and I do respect her for that and Harry seems like the type that would love to share a pint and watch for the clear smoke from the BGE with you. -

As they say, I didn't have a dog in the fight.......so I skipped it.

But i did watch thd FA Cup final at Wembley

I watched it and enjoyed it.

Too early to drink?

My wife woke up and watched it. She has been texting back and forth with her friend over in England.
I changed oil/filter, greased, replaced blades, and washed the mower instead.

I was really tempted to wake up early, but since it's my birthday, I thought "Fvck that sh!t." Ok. I would have thought the same thing any other day as well.Flint, Michigan

Not my royal family but I think Harry would be a better King than his inbred father.

@WeberWho I don't know how old your mower is, but it looks new. Clearly I'm lazy - I've never washed a mower in my life.

Geeeeez......why is everybody so bitter about this? I didn't watch--not much interest. But some folks are into this so why is everyone so quick to $h!t on it?? I could care less about sports, but a lot of folks here are into that.
In a media culture where if "it bleeds, it leads", for ONCE in a long time it was happy news on the TV. Maybe if there was more coverage of good/happy events, everybody wouldn't be at each others' throats all the time over the constant partisan/political/cultural/etc hotspots thrown in our faces all hours of the day.
As far as crapping on the British culture, that's their thing......they love it. Who are we to tell them what they should and shouldn't like? It's their history/tradition, not ours. Every time some English talk show host, actor, etc opens their mouth about this country's issues, we tell them to "'eff off, go home, that's why we had the American Revolution", right?
So......whatever......I'm happy for them. Their country had something that brought everybody together today, and plenty more around the world.
