Just that really, Holly said hold on breaking news! I actually got a bit worried thinking we had been attacked or something!

Specially as in the last few days we have had bomb threats with those packages found in London etc.

Aibu to have an issue with this? Is it just me?

Why would anyone think the Queen had died during a 'Gender Reveal'?

This is one of the odder threads I’ve read for a while

AutumnCrow · 07/03/2019 13:19

Is Mike a lady now?

Is the Queen a man?

Perhaps it’s the queen’s gender reveal. “The queen” is now a deadname. You may refer to this person as “two twin boys called mike”

I'm totally confused.

Tomorrowillbeachicken · 07/03/2019 13:21

Mike is Phoebe's husband.

What the bloody hell is this madness?! 🍿

OVAgroundWOMBlingfree · 07/03/2019 13:23

Who do these twins belong to?

ethelfleda · 07/03/2019 13:23

Mike is Phoebe's husband

Right - so Holly interrupted this morning to reveal twin boys, one of which was Mike from Friends and the other was a guy named Phillip? But how is the queen involved?

Alsohuman · 07/03/2019 13:24

Will someone tell us who’s having twin boys?

ethelfleda · 07/03/2019 13:25

Isn't two twin boys four boys?

Good point. So the queen is the other two twin boys because she has changed gender?

ethelfleda · 07/03/2019 13:25

Hang on - did I just make it 6 boys?

I don’t think that will help. Maybe if we read the thread backwards it will make more sense?
