The Queen / The Monarchy

[icowden]

You people have me in bits, this entire forum is dedicated to moaning, whining and getting hot and bothered about the Tories, the Police and the Monarchy.
Irony at its finest, love it!

We know you love the moaning and whining, but not sure where the irony is?

Irony:

the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect.

The irony is somebody using the word irony when they don't know what it means.

Pot, kettle and black then.

You lot must be permanently glowing with the amount of complaining you do about the Monarchy yet accuse other people of getting irate.

Thank you Anus.

Heaven forfend that people should have a view on an anachronistic institution.

Yet it seems to upset you if other people don't share your views, how does that work then?

Are we in the same conversation?

You tell me, in general do people on here like/agree with/think there should be etc a Monarchy?

Do people on here generally slag them off, dislike them and attempt to ridicule supporters of them?

This entire thread is dedicated to slating the Monarchy.

What don't you understand?

So after weeks of speculation, Harry is coming to the coronation but Megan is staying away.
It doesn’t surprise me, we’ve all ducked out of family events we don’t much fancy.
But she’s rapidly lost any good will from the general population. And the excuse of looking after the children seems a bit weak.

I'd speculate ( with no factual basis and no inside knowledge) that the reason for the delay in responding to the invite ( responses due by 3 april. Response provided 12 April) was down to M refusing to go and trying to persuade H not to go either. Or alternatively down to H wanting to go and trying to persuade M to go as well.

Effectively I am saying M&H possibly had differing views on this

I miss the meta-moaning thread we had BITD.

Thank you Alanis.

I had to Google that reference. I can't say I've ever knowingly heard a song by her.

Why is it weird, because I have a different opinion to you?

Would it be weird if I was agreeing with you?

What do you think happens when people 'talk ' face to face and have different opinions, do you think them weird or do you avoid that sort of behaviour in favour of these sorts of echo chambers?

What a surprise!

Yes, I was too busy listening to Tchaikovsky piano concertos, whilst sipping Pimms with my best friend, Bunty.
