April 26, 201115 yr I hope she runs away. Teach royality not everything is theirs. But it'll be stupid of her to leave that money and prestiege behind. "The cry of the poor is not always just, but if you never hear it you'll never know what justice is."
April 26, 201115 yr No. Why should I stay up just to watch a wedding of some random couple who is not related to me?
April 26, 201115 yr No. Why should I stay up just to watch a wedding of some random couple who is not related to me?I wouldn't stay up to watch a random couple who is related to me. 8,180WONGTONG IS THE BEST AND IS MORE SUPERIOR THAN ME#1 Wongtong stalker.Im looking for some No Limit soldiers!
April 26, 201115 yr I was wondering why recently there was a lot of media cover surrounding the wedding then I realized yesterday that the wedding is Friday. I don't plan on watching it though, I'll probably be stumbling home Friday night around 2am anyways so watching a wedding will be the last thing on my agenda.
April 26, 201115 yr I hope she runs away. Teach royality not everything is theirs. But it'll be stupid of her to leave that money and prestiege behind. Ya know, it's actually weird the royalty would marry a commner like her. So if anything wouldn't it be the opposite? It's a REALLY big shaft.I didn't catch fire, I used the can of hairspray as a flamethrower and pointed it at my arm.how are you going to ignore my posts when I'm offering to let you live as my vassal in two weeks time?
April 26, 201115 yr No. Why do their positions (in terms of royalty) even exist anymore? They're just there for show it seems, which, imo, is a huge waste of money. Seems like the media is just over-hyping this for a quick buck. Player since 2004.

April 26, 201115 yr Well I'm not exactly an expert, but I think it's quite complicated. I mean the Queen is incharge of the commonwealth IIRC It's a REALLY big shaft.I didn't catch fire, I used the can of hairspray as a flamethrower and pointed it at my arm.how are you going to ignore my posts when I'm offering to let you live as my vassal in two weeks time?
April 26, 201115 yr There isn't anything complicated about it, she'll simply will become William's princess or duchess if Williams takes on the title of a duke. It's the classic fairy tale.

Ya know, it's actually weird the royalty would marry a commner like her. So if anything wouldn't it be the opposite?She's pretty far from a commoner. She comes from a rich family, not a rich noble family, but damn close enough. I would like people to stop treating English royality as if it were a show. If I was British I would be damn shamed having them around after all these decades. EDIT: I just realized something.

Oh I got confused ha, I wasn't sure if you were questioning her title. Of course I never followed them that closely, but I imagine they'll be fine, or at least let's hope so.

April 26, 201115 yr They're just there for show it seems, which, imo, is a huge waste of money. FYI, they actually make the country money, they don't cost it money
April 26, 201115 yr I'm going to watch it, but it's all a tourist attraction with history. A classy one at that. I don't see what's wrong with it. ~ W ~
April 26, 201115 yr Kinda hard not to watch it, living in England and all.. RIP TET "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." - Friedrich Nietzsche
April 26, 201115 yr Um... no. I'll enjoy my bank holiday watching some good summer sport though. :thumbup: | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules |
April 26, 201115 yr The way I see it is that it's merely a tourist attraction to help boost demand in the Economy.
April 26, 201115 yr I don't get all the hate for the royal family. They do much more good than bad, and a lot more good than a good chunk of the worlds population too. That's before you count the money they bring into the British economy. I'll be watching it. Want to be my friend? Look under my name to the left<<< and click the 'Add as friend' button!Big thanks to Stevepole for the signature!^
April 26, 201115 yr I want to but cannot due to a tutoring session during it. Ah well, A levels are more important.
April 26, 201115 yr Nah, I don't get it either But in all seriousness, there's not really been any 'hate' on this thread so far, as opposed to apathy or insincerity. The blunt truth is that while a third of the country will be watching, a third couldn't care less. | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules |
April 26, 201115 yr Why is he marrying a commoner? Didn't Edward VIII abdicate because he wanted to marry an American woman? What's changed now? SWAG Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.
