Royals and American media coverage

[ButteryPuffin]

Saw this cover posted on Twitter and noted that it seems the tabloids do indeed exist in the US (amazing, huh?). This is pretty much what you'd expect from the source, and I think it's pretty deplorable, but I am interested to see how the American media in general cover the presence of the former royals who've now arrived to make their home there. Of course we can discuss their coverage of other Royals too and related topics. All welcome.

Link to cover story - please note I'm not endorsing it, I'm just sharing it:

ah x-posts fleas

DandyArgo

Looks as if that snide, unpleasant post was deleted then.

All good.

fleas I'm not that bothered about chocolate either or in fact any sort of pudding. though, I'd fight you for that and anything savoury too (except Pringles, which are just as cardboard as their packaging).

Always worry I've lost a filling

I, personally, have lost many fillings over the years, as a direct result of eating pear drops.

Yes, I know we were talking about chocolate.

lizzie you can get Slimfast chocolate caramel bars on Amazon. They come with the highest recommendations.

@mathanxiety if you mean the post about pronouncing The Tig, no it's still there. I've just done a search on this page. And scrolled past lots of posts about tights ...

I missed it before because I didn't read swathes of posts when catching up.

Aww yolo we've disagreed before about Pringles.

I prefer savoury things myself. Would always rather have something savoury than something sweet.

I am especially keen on Cheese and Chive Pringles.

Not keen on the Salt and Vinegar ones. They give me third-degree birns of the tongue.

Or burns, even.

The exception being chocolate caramel shortbread. Do love that!

Ah, Mischief, that's one of my specialities (except I don't know whether to pronounce it "special-tees" or "spesh-ee-al-it-tees").

Anyway, sad story: I passed on the recipe to a friend and she made the caramel bit with evaporated milk instead of condensed milk.

I know, right?

Poor lamb - didn't actually need a padded room, but certainly had a well-insulated one for a while.

That is so true Mustress, salt and vinegar Pringles take the skin off the inside of your mouth.

I'm partial to the Paprika ones (actually they might be supermarket copies but still...)

Would definitely rather have savoury than sweet any day.

Except nuts not envy.

I have eaten too many Cadbury mini eggs.

Oh, thank you. Good idea about getting it delivered, thanks!

I was just trying out this user name, to see if anyone had taken it.

Nobody has.

BTW I am The Mustress - not trying to pretend otherwise.

I take your point, Mischief, but once lost a crown to a bag of pork scratchings.

I'm not saying it wasn't worth it, but it turned out to be a jolly expensive bag of pork scratchings.

Ha ha ha. I would've thought this name would have been snapped up.

Oh well. I shall change back to TheMustressMhor now. Back in a minute.

But how do you pronounce your name Archewell!?

Right.

I'm me again.

Not Archewell.

Personally, (when I was Archewell, however briefly) I pronounced it

Arch - Well.

But when I first saw it, a couple of days ago, I pronounced it Archie-Well.

Mr. Mhor pronounces it Arsh - Well.

But he is wrong, of course.

Why? How do you all pronounce it? I do not think that Meghan would have invented a website name which had pronunciation ambiguity.

That would just have been idiotic.

Thank goodness Mustress, I was confused.

Back to chocolate. I am very simple, and like any chocolate as long as it's not bitter.

Oh yes, and also I prefer it without big nuts.

Oh a do agree, HarryDaylight.

I am not keen on big nuts at all.

Did someone mention chocolate caramel shortbread? 😊

I especially don't like big nuts when they have been dipped in chocolate.

Mr. Mhor will testify to this.

Oooooh.

Chocolate caramel shortbread>

Yummity Yum.

I'll take your nuts.

I'm partial to Tony Chocolonely Dark with Pretzel Toffee, or Ritter Sport Marzipan.
Currently though am making do with a Cadbury triple chocolate.

Ooh don't you think that Tony Chocolonely is very expensive?

It's pricy, but I'm very odd at expenditure - I don't own/spend on certain things, and go all out on things I like that matter, thus achieving financial and mental equilibrium.
