Got a thread locked, ehhh?
I'm a fan of 3-Year Letterman twitter. Top tier trolling.
There is a fun little Hot 🔥 take in the QE2 thread that was posted. Damn I hope it starts a fight. I'm pretty much a bomb thrower, so I respect the post. Also I struggled with only 1 class in school. The bourgeoisie.
Yeah, I decided to post my personal experience in this thread to leave that one be --- but, my Scottish inlaws are very pro Scottish independence and hate the monarchy. They'll be up here this weekend and are in a very celebratory mood. Fully expect my father-in-law to say some things that would make many a folk clutch their pearls.
And I'm someone who thinks that the American Revolution was a mistake and we would have avoided the American Civil War if we paid the stamp and tea taxes for a few more years. And independence would have come anyway in the fullness of time. But my real problem with us declaring independence is we would have dominated The Commonwealth Games. DOMINATED.
I posted a link in the RIP thread to a story from one of the Queen's bodyguards about an encounter she had with some American hikers. She had a delightful sense of humor.

A phrase that is used WAY too much.
