Viva la republic - yes please.

Perhaps we could just spoof some threads about Kate Middleton being an alien or something and get them all tied up in knots in an entertaining manner. How about 'PW is really marrying Katie Waissal instead?'

Eleison · 16/11/2010 18:22

We could call it the MN Royalty thread to confuse everyone, and systematically muddy the water so it looked like Prince W was marrying Cod.

SauvignonBlanche · 16/11/2010 18:24

Yes please!

AMumInScotland · 16/11/2010 18:29

Please, please, give us a topic so everyone who wants to talk about it can join one of the 23 pre-existing threads instead of starting yet another one.

And a topic for fattist arguments would be nice too Grin

expatinscotland · 16/11/2010 18:39

Warning: best keep these views on this threads, the royalists on others will have digs at your nationality if you vocalise anything other than sunshine.

SauvignonBlanche · 16/11/2010 18:40

Really? Twats! Angry

southeastastra · 16/11/2010 18:42

jaysus no more effing topics! this place is turning into a lunatic asylum

KittyFoyle · 16/11/2010 18:43

You lot are a weird boring little group.

ssd · 16/11/2010 18:43

yes I can't be arsed with those two (or the reast of them come to think of it) and I don't want to read about their £££££wedding dress and ££££honeymoon

expatinscotland · 16/11/2010 18:46

Oh, yes, Sauv. I'm British, but apparently because I was born American, I'm not supposed to express negative views about this pair of dullards having a huge blowout in part funded by the taxpayers whilst so many are losing their jobs.

Better not tell my British, born Iranian, anti-royalist mate! People will be telling the likes of her to 'go back home'. Hmm

Not to mention, the fact that had Kate been Catholic, he would have had to give up his place in line for the throne to marry her. Can you imagine the hue and cry if this were true for any other religion, though?

saorachd · 16/11/2010 18:50

Can we have a Big Fat Wedding topic?
That would cover most of today's threads.

SauvignonBlanche · 16/11/2010 18:52

Fuck the lot of them!
You're right expat, the anti-catholic stance is just glossed over.
Everytime I look there's another moronic thread about them. Sad

nymphadora · 16/11/2010 18:55

2shoes there is a Christmas topic!

AMumInScotland · 16/11/2010 18:57

I'm exactly as happy for them as I would be if I heard that any other couple I'd never met was getting married. Happy in a vague "that's nice for them" sort of way. But not hugely interested in the details. And not thinking that 23 threads are necessary to say "these two people have got engaged". One thread would be fine....

AMumInScotland · 16/11/2010 19:07

On the plus side - maybe the "weird things your inlaws do" might get a bit surreal...

HecateQueenOfWitches · 16/11/2010 19:07

Oh yes please. please please please.

or chat, other subjects, aibu, relationships even Grin will be taken over. It's easy to hide a section - one click and it's done - it's a pain in the arse to have to individually hide thread after thread after thread. For months and months and months.

I swear to beelzebub if I have to endure royal shit as well as z list sleb shit I'm going to sit in the highest tower of MNHQ looking down on you all with A FUCKING AR-15!!!!!

Decorhate · 16/11/2010 19:15

The problem is that people are lazy/want lots of replies so tend to post mostly in Chat & AIBU - I seethe inwardly every time I see a wedding thread not in the wedding section for example.

I sort of hanker after the days before AIBU and when there was a button you could press to see active convs without chat... ( I do know you can hide it but this was simpler iyswim)

unfitmother · 16/11/2010 19:19

Please, please, please, then I can hide it.

ASecretLemonadeDrinker · 16/11/2010 19:21

you miserable lot!

motherinferior · 16/11/2010 19:36

I quite like the piss-take threads Blush.

But I would like to say, with terrific pride, that I boycotted the Chaz'n'Di wedding too.

expatinscotland · 16/11/2010 19:48

piss-take threads make the world go round!

It could be called The Tumbrils and could be a subsection of Fun and Games. Or Pets.

MissKateMiddleton · 16/11/2010 20:24

I think you are all big meanies

NightFury · 16/11/2010 20:26
