BruceVC Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 https://www.yahoo.com/news/royal-wedding-2018-time-details-061347314.html So who else is planning on watching this grand day of pomp and ceremony? I plan to watch most of it...besides its hard to imagine Meghan Markle looking more beautiful than she normally does 3 "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Chilloutman Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 jesus, someone really care? :/ 2 I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, and freedom of choice. I'm the kinda guy that likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs with the side-order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol! I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing "I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiene"
BruceVC Posted May 18, 2018 Author Posted May 18, 2018 jesus, someone really care? :/ Its epic my son, its huge.

Lexx Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 I bet the queen will survive even Morrissey. Would be funny. 1 "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."

Guard Dog Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 Lord help me I will never understand the fascination with this beyond the shores of GB. OK, I really don't get why the British are so fascinated with them either. They (the royals) are sort of like national pets. You know who everything your dog, cats, etc does is cute in your eyes? "Awww she's sleeping. She's playing with a toy". Like how a lot of Americans are with the Kardashians. Only they are more like a pet tarantula or snake than a dog or cat. Yes, they are yours but there is a definite creepiness about them too. Hey, the Princes all served in the the military. No Kardashian has ever done anything like that.. 1 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell

Amentep Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 I plan on avoiding television tomorrow, personally. And news programs for the next few days. I've seen more about the royal weddings in various networks (HBO? Seriously? Are they going to reveal that they're all Westworld Robots or something?) than I wanted to see of the royal wedding and it ain't even happened yet. 1 I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man
Hurlshort Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 Eh, we all have our weird fantasy stuff we are into, I suppose.
Blarghagh Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 Okay, so the British Prince is marrying a woman named Megan? Didn't he just have a kid with another woman?

Androoh Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 (edited) Speaking as a native of the UK - No.Would rather stab myself repeatedly in the gonads with a stanley knife than endure watching it.Nothing against the royals but neither am I any fan of theirs. Edited May 18, 2018 by Androoh
ShadySands Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 I got my invite but couldn't make it because of work 6 Free games updated 3/4/21
smjjames Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 It starts at 4 am pacific coast time (west coast US), but I don’t really care about it all that much.
Malcador Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 I got my invite but couldn't make it because of work Well a lot of regular folk did get an invite due to their charity work, which is neat of them. It's a big deal for the CBC here, my mom and sister will probably have it on the TV but not a big deal - they have to put up with me watching the World Cup for example 1 Why has elegance found so little following?

injurai Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 I almost nearly was tricked into being interested in this... http://stoneyroads.com/2018/05/prince-harry-announces-royal-wedding-afterparty-with-carl-cox-goldie-and-more/ alas this was satire
LadyCrimson Posted May 19, 2018 Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) I remember when Charles and Diana got hitched and it was SUCH a big deal in the US. I was an early teen then or something. I didn't care then, I care even less now. I'll never understand the fascination with such. It's a wedding, not Disney animation. ...marriage and then 15 years later, possible Royal Divorce. hardeharhar. I didn't care when Brad and Angelina got together either (that's kinda like "royalty" in US terms - Hollywood couples, meh). Not like any of them are my friends.
