Queens Xmas Message

[Mindful]

The US wins hands down. Despite the excesses of the current incumbent you can kick his flabby arse down the road in 2 years. We are stuck with these parasites till the crack of doom.

I think your Royal Family is very cool, and the Knights and everything. Elizabeth II is a sweetie with a steel ramrod of a spine. I like her. Charles not so much.

Charles is cool.

You read too much fake news.

You think the Queen does, as well? She would have handed over the throne years ago if Charles wasn't such a friggin' loser. IMO.

Charles is an inbred misfit. Pretty much all of them are.

Like Druids.

I mean honestly? Look how they spell things. That and "Welsh Rarebit", which is Velveeta on bread. That's right. Cheese on bread. Is this Wales' finest export, I ask you? Cheese and bread? I only ask because Tommy loves to dog on America. Can he take it in the opposite direction, or is that mean and "bullying"???

Wales created the US. Thats a pretty big achievement for such a small country.

Lol you're insane. A bunch of farmers, rabble rousers and malcontents created the US.

Kicked you redcoats out and formed a nation..the greatest nation on Earth.

What has the British Empire done since then? A once great empire reduced to rapidly becoming a shit hole.

Declaration of Independence |

Have some learning you stupid cow.

Almost 50% of the Signatories of American Independence and constitution were Welsh, 20% of the pilgrim fathers were Welsh as was the captain of the Mayflower itself. There have been at least 9 American presidents of Welsh descent including three of arguably the most iconic and influential; Thomas Jefferson, Jefferson Davis and Abraham Lincoln.

Thomas Jefferson read, spoke, and wrote Welsh as can be seen by his correspondence with his principal aid and fellow Welsh American icon Merriwether Lewis who corresponded with Jefferson in Welsh in all his dispatches whilst trailing and founding the Northwest Passage across America together with fellow Celt William Clark (a precedent for the use of American Indian code talkers in WWII – the ‘code’ the Japanese were unable to break)

K, Tommy...so what. In early America, "of British descent" or "Welsh descent" or "Scottish descent" didn't mean much. We declared Independence but obviously, a lot of our forefathers came from the UK. So what? That doesn't mean YOUR NATION made ours. Because news flash Tommy: we declared independence. We're not part of yours anymore, thank God for that.

"We" was Welsh hun. And that is exactly what it means.

There was no America then, so "we" were EVERYTHING, Tommy, do you not understand that?

 

[SweetSue92]

Full English.

That was about it too. A full days' worth of food in one meal. But oh, so good. Also: scones. I don't know what piece of heaven it is that you folks call "Devonshire cream" but on scones....to die for.

I did get sick of green peas though. Never in my life did I see so many green peas

I can't get enough of them.

Did you mean clotted cream?

There's a place near where I live sometimes in VA, that does cream teas.

A huge Union Jack hanging up outside.

Yes, I think that's the same thing--Devonshire cream and clotted cream.

The Lord knows where you read such shit.

The gossip magazines by Walmart checkout?

No. On this side of the Pond, they show Diana's version of the story.

I do not understand Americans' preoccupation with the British royal family and consider it a little traitorous. Not seriously so, but a little.

Um the monarchy is built on a serious class system, a very very serious class system. Which we utterly rejected here to the point of telling King George...well you know. So why the preoccupation? You want princesses, see a Disney movie. Anyway that's my two cents

You're right--the class system sucks. I love the pomp and circumstance, though, and the Crown Jewels. Definitely the Crown Jewels. And I think the Royals learned something about what is "appropriate" when it comes to whom they marry. It can be disastrous when they forbid the Heir Apparent or the King to wed the girl of his dreams. First Edward, then Charles, made a pure muck of things when they were forbidden due to some antiquainted ideal of what was "proper." They have gotten over it now, haven't they, evidenced by Harry's marriage?

More like they daren't tempt providence.

The Diana effect. She nearly brought down the monarchy, after death.

People are certainly to able to hold all kinds of conflicting views, this is for sure. But I do not understand modern liberals who nonetheless still uphold and/or admire monarchies. Don't get me wrong; I don't hate the royal family or wish them ill. I just don't understand even the pomp and circumstance. It's not based on work ethic, achievement, learning, etc. It is absolutely "royal birth". I can't think of anything less "liberal" than that--yet most American liberals I know hold at least some kind of semi-fondness for royalty.

On second thought this does not surprise me at all....

Yes indeed but ceased being Welsh I suppose when they took up arms against their own nation, don't you think? And then declared themselves citizens of the new nation?

And dearheart, do you think people got TEACHING DEGREES from Trump U? Do you? And you call me too ignorant to teach children.

 

[Mindful]

Then there's Spotted Dick.

Available in Wegmans' and World Market.

 

[JGalt]

Nobody watches this shit.

Aren't you her subject Tommy? Have a little respect.

Over here, we told the Monarchy to go fly a kite well over 200 years ago. Thank God.

In hindsight, that was a bad idea. They kind of suck but we suck a whole lot more.

Do some research. Try this: "The sun never sets on the British Empire".

Why you think they said that, mr genius?

The Brits freed their slaves 30 years before we did and their former colonies of India, Kenya, Jamaica, Bahamas and several more haven`t been part of the British Empire in decades. You need to keep up. Oh yeah, Canada is no longer under British rule either. Didn`t you say you were a teacher? Which southern state are you teaching in?

Not sure if you're joking or what. The British Empire was the "Charlie Manson" of nation states. Their worldwide colonialist genocide was responsible for the murders of hundreds of millions of people, far more than even Nazi Germany.

They were also the ones who shipped the slaves not only to this country, but 8-9 times as many more to South America and other countries.

The monarchies, in their pure form, arose when the King was ultimate leader. A flesh and blood figurehead.

He even led the troops into battle.

In more ways than one. The irony of it is that even though the British Empire once colonized the world, they themselves are slowly being subjugated by the fascism of radical Islam. Give them another decade or two and they'll be ruled by Sharia Law.

I don't view life through a political prism, so I'm not at all worried about whether my views on immigration or affirmative action "match" loving the opulence and large living done by the Royals. It's kind of nice to dream of being in the Castle, waited on hand and foot and getting a chance to put on gorgeous tiaras and robes. I realize that irl they have to attend a whole lot of boring functions and that they live life in a fish bowl, have to use the most impeccable manners and have very uncomfortable looking furniture. But hey, it's like buying a lotto ticket--I just dream about the good stuff.
