hexcalibrate Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 I myself am a Brit and a Royalist, they generate a lot tourism and it's hilarious how racist the duke of Edinburgh is, I'm pleased that we have a future king (although a queen would of been good too), I bet £10 that they would name the child Albert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankee Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 But I bet on Edward. Please let that happen. I'd love to have more things to laugh at when I think of British stuff. Like Gay Vampire Kings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sparkle furiously when they don't get their tea on time. That aside, one more royal mouth to feed. Joy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dad Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 I was supposed to visit the UK this summer, but in light of financial situations (my mom needed the help) I decided not to go. Good thing too, cuz porn just became illegal and that's not cool. But I hope the Royal family does well honestly. I don't much about them, so I won't wish ill on 'em.

Cin Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 How about discuss the desire of people to just turn over the channel when this is on the news? Literally all we've had in over 24 hours is Kate going into Labour, Baby is a boy. And that is all...how does it take over so much news? Did nothing else happen in this world in the last 24 hours?

Just Crouton Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 I'm utterly flabbergasted that CNN didn't get Richard Quest to cover the story, because then I'd actually care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, not really. Lots of people died. Starvation. Threat of war between countries. Ya know. Nothing IMPORTANT. Not like a baby being pumped out. No, no, no.

I didn't even know China had one. Eh, not really. Lots of people died. Starvation. Threat of war between countries. Ya know. Nothing IMPORTANT. Not like a baby being pumped out. No, no, no.

Even if they're figureheads that don't do sh*t but jack off to their own vanity and wealth... THEY'RE STILL ROYALTY. I'm bored, so I have to get excited about something.

Enrise Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 That's why God made the Kardashians. The who? ... Wait... they're those... um... famous chicks, are they? Didn't one of them have a baby or something with Kanye or whatever, and named it (I could care less about it's gender) North? So... those people you mentioned, they're even less important than a dysfunctional family in England who has no actual power other than to please people with words. Which they probably don't. I don't know. Wow. I seem so out of touch with the world for some reason. I thought I heard of those Kar-something people before. I seemed to stop caring about the world it seems, including royal baby births that does nothing for the world. .... Good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bull3tM0nk3y Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 As my friend Austen, who went to this site, before he declared it dead and started doing thing in life said about it: "Why do people give a fück about the Royal Baby? Or, more specifically, the gender identity of the kid. The kid is biologically male, so calling him a boy right now, before he starts identifying as a certain gender, makes sense. It blows my mind that people that aren't even the parents are so pissed off at the baby being a boy, and the fact that he’s called a boy." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It blows my mind that people that aren't even the parents are so pissed off at the baby being a boy, and the fact that he’s called a boy." To be more specific as to whom is saying these things, it's the group of women (and for some reason, men), who claim they are feminists that are being oppressed by the patriarchy of society, that men are scum, rapists, etc., and deserve to either die or submit to women. They're thinking is that because the baby is a boy, the Royal 'patriarchy' in England will live on. Or some crazy sh*t like that. I can probably get a video better explaining the thinking of these people. Give me a sec to find it.
