NFT: OK. The Royal Wedding. Where are you on this whole deal?

Beezer : 5/18/2018 9:40 am
I was in college when Charles and Di were married. Friends of mine made a whole event of it, with the early-morning breakfasts and drinking, etc. I suspect they did this mostly to appease their lady friends. I didn't pay any attention back then.

I admit I'm at least a little bit interested in this one. The dude seems like a good guy. She at least appears to be a decent human being. Both might be somewhat down-to-earth.

Seems everyone I talk to is tired of the whole thing. Pretty much boycotting it, they say. But the world, generally, seems enthralled.

TV coverage begins tomorrow morning at 4. My wife thinks if would be fun to get up early and watch, have mimosas, blah blah ... so I suppose if she wakes me up, I'll try to make the most of it (IFFFF ya know what I mean - hello!). lol

With that image in mind, BBI - Royal Wedding ... whattaya got?

Pretty much is an attack. On common sense. THe royal family for the most part are a bunch of inbred idiots. That it’s huge news for tje tabloid super market magazines should tell you how stupid all this fake pomp and circumstance is.

It’s prerty sad on so many fronts.
WTF-that’s it???

has been lovely. The reaction to the American bishop was entertaining.

For those of you so put off and some even offended by this circus, why even waste your time reading and commenting on this thread? SMH.

but in a world where there is a lot of negativity especially lately, I have no issue with those who want to indulge in something positive for a few hours

What do they do other than have famous parents?

the royals haven't done much running of the country in generations.

I seriously doubt any prince has been in real danger (combat) in generations. He may have had a sincere desire to serve honorably in the thick of things, but it would be too much of a sticky wicket for him to be captured or killed, so the military angle was carefully managed PR.

I don't have anything against any of the royals, but realistically, they could all spontaneously combust, and aside from the tears shed, Britain wouldn't miss a beat.

So, where am I on the subject? Don't much care. Not my tax dollars being spent.

Now that you mention it, Harry has been closer to combat than any President since Bush the First.
Congrats to the new Princess

Do some research - Prince Harry served in combat in Afghanistan - as in, under fire from the Taliban. Flew helicopters in combat too. Part of why he's much loved and respected in the UK, he insisted on his deployment there being kept secret at the time.

Two pages of posts and not one single pic of Markle?

I only opened this thread with hope that the majority of the commentary would be on who posted the slutiest picture...Very disappointed.

I guess I just have to comment on the OP...any man on their right mind who wakes up at 4AM on Saturday morning to watch this garbage need to have their balls reattached.


She only really really pretty air brushed. That so many think she’s a smoke show is kind of strange to me. She’s attractive But to be all agog over? It’s the famous syndrome. Is she wasnt on TV you can find thousands of hotter women in here S Florida waiting tables and cocktailing
It's a Wedding

It's a big deal to the old biddies and Yentas of England. The type of people here who make a big deal about coming out parties and the Debutante Ball.
So ...
