Personally, I got tired of the 'coverage'? Great Britain has a Parliamentary system that makes our Political system look 'stable'--and that statement itself makes me smile because we are the 'masters' of 'gridlock'--it's choking us boys and girls. Dems and Pubs that can't ever come together--hell of a system. But GB is no better.
Our politics are like a 'good' cable debate on CP? lol
On another note. America is still a young country the pines after 'tradition' because it's history is so short. Look at how the Kennedys are compared to royalty--what's that about? Any American who has visited an area of the world that has more than a 1000 years worth of history is usually awestruck...for a moment or two. And things are even more pressing now that some (IMF) have given us a termination notice of 2016 as the end of the #1 global economy. Oh my!
Of course I'm pulling your legs--some, as my family is home to two of world's great civilizations. One that's in glorious economic default, the other--the next #1--for better or worse?

She ain't no human being.
Let's give homage to a great song.
God save the queen
The fascist regime
They made you a moron
Potential H-bomb
God save the queen
She ain't no human being
There is no future
In England's dreaming
Don't be told what you want
Don't be told what you need
There's no future, no future,
No future for you
God save the queen
We mean it man
We love our queen
God saves
God save the queen
'Cause tourists are money
And our figurehead
Is not what she seems
Oh God save history
God save your mad parade
Oh Lord God have mercy
All crimes are paid
When there's no future
How can there be sin
We're the flowers in the dustbin
We're the poison in your human machine
We're the future, your future
God save the queen
We mean it man
We love our queen
God saves
God save the queen
We mean it man
And there is no future
In England's dreaming
No future, no future,
No future for you
No future, no future,
No future for me
No future, no future,
No future for you
No future, no future

You guys kill me. A bunch of angry old men that will piss on any and everything. When did everyone become so miserable?

That's what I do with the TV but this is just ON everywhere. They are on your toilet newspaper, on your burrito wrap paper, on your laptop screen, in your daydreams, in the nightmares, etc...etc...
It's even on the Internet and Club Polk. It's everywhere.
So, here I go.
Raise my glass and hail "God Save the Queen".
May God Bless the Royal newlyweds and they share eternal happiness.
Now, let me have some moment of peace and God save me from this everywhere.
And let God save himself for his own peace and quietness too! And stop asking him to bless on bloody everything!
I have nothing against the Royalties and England but the media is a little too much now.Trying out Different Audio Cables is a Religious Affair. You don't discuss it with anyone. :redface::biggrin: -
Amen Russ! Nice post megasat16.
The fact that the majority of you are old enough to be Kate's father, talking about "hitting it" is rather disgusting.
While this maybe one of the most knowledgeble, helpful boards on the web, it is also one of the most classless, & crass boards on the web.

Hmmmm...only one person said they'd "hit it" and that was TOOLFORLIFEFAN.
As far as "old enough to be her father" comments, you're wrong.
Kate Middleton - 29 years old
Pippa Middleton - 27 years old
I'm not 100% sure about the others but for me to be Kate's father, I would have to have done the deed at the ripe old age of 4. For me to be Pippa's father, I would have to have done the deed at 6.
As far as the "hitting it" comment goes, fine, that's crass but you know what? TOOLFORLIFEFAN has always been that way since he got here. It's his bed to lay in and if you disagree with his posts, talk to him about it in a PM, not the rest of us. As far as the other posts, admiring a woman or women in the public eye for their beauty and attractiveness is neither crass nor classless. Saying you would prefer one woman over another is not crass or classless either. It's just stating an opinion. I'm all for being respectful towards women but this crusade you go on whenever ANYTHING is said about a woman concerning her physical appearance is tiresome.
We are humans. Our greatest of the 5 senses is eyesight. We are visual creatures and it is part of our makeup to find a mate based on features that give visual queues as to the overall health and genetic quality of a potential. mate. While, yes, modern society and media tend to objectify a certain ideal that is not necessarily attainable for the majority of the population, that ideal does have some root in reality. Neglecting to understand that and then passing it off as piggish, crass and classless to put yourself above what is a personal preference based on a basic, instinctual attraction is just denying reality. The farther one is away from the ideal, man or woman, the more difficult it is for them to attract a suitable mate. It's not crass, classless or even wrong. It's just survival of the fittest.
Everyone is beautiful in their own way. Personally, I couldn't deal with a woman like, I dunno, Joy Behar. She's beautiful in her own way for the fact that she is another life on this Earth affecting things, for good or bad, just like you and I. That does not necessarily mean she is attractive to others. In my case, there are a couple reason and it's not just for her personality but because I am completely not attracted to her in every way. Now Joy's co-host, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, I do find attractive (although her personality on the show is equally as grating) and that's just me. There is nothing crass or classless about it. What would be crass and classless would be discussing how much I would like to do unspeakable things to Elisabeth and/or putting down Joy Behar for resembling an albino hippo wearing a Bozo the Clown wig.
There is a difference between admiration of beauty and attractiveness and being a crass, classless pig and you, far too often, fail to make that distinction. I'm also pretty offended that you continually choose to lump the entire forum in to a single, offensive category over the crimes of the few.Expert Moron Extraordinaire

'I'd hit it' and she's old enough to be my older sister, is that disgusting?When did everyone become so miserable?
Since I joined Club Polk with all you class-less old men. It just bothers me everytime I want to see news, it's been this for a week straight. Sometimes, if its not this, it's some other celebrity doing this or not doing that. Great, let us know, but then shut up about it. I don't want to hear about Vick killing dogs for 3 weeks, or every time Lohan goes back to jail...etc.
I wish them the best though. (to the wedding party)

Yeah, I'm all for weddings, and find them awesome. I'm complaining about the obsession, not the event.If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

If men kept their minds out of the gutter then the population in this world would be a lot less, not saying thats a bad thing.. I will always enjoy the beauty of woman when I stop just shoot me...
So with that statment older men should never look at a Playboy?? -

Edited for clarification
The only luck I wish upon Vick is bad luck, but thats for another thread to get locked.

I'm just glad the whole damn thing is over so that I don't have to listen to the talking heads gush all over this crap every time I turn on the TV.
Simple solution: don't turn on the TV.
Also too, SJP: ickers.
P.P.S. no way is Philippa the hotter sister. Good tan though. -
The coverage hasn't bothered me as I refuse to watch TV news unless there is really something happening in the world that could possibly affect me or my country. The workplace water cooler, CP and a brief skim of headlines on the net seem to work fine.
I did find it funny that some company "over there" came up with the Royal Puke Bags some time ago...seems some of us are not the only ones tired of the constant coverage.
...and I agree, Pippa is a looker!Yep, my name really is Bob.

While I know where you're coming from, I still can't help noticing the irony of berating the fine 'commoner' men of CP when the 'proper and rightfully revered' future king Charles has such a pristine history with Camilla and the discussion of tampons... -

This!!
I don't know what people see in her; she is absolutely FUGLY defined. Blech.
In regards to the wedding, I'm not usually one for this sort of distraction, but I can honestly appreciate the pomp, circumstance and pageantry that the English bring to this type of ceremony.
And maybe I'm a little less prickly about it b/c I lived in England when Charles/Diana got married, so I was able to appreciate the pageantry first hand.

Get a bunch of donkeys alone, wait a few minutes and.....I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore
