Anybody going to watch the royal wedding? I think that royal weddings are always interesting affairs, so I'll watch it on delay. If you're in Great Britain, you'd better watch because those are your £18 at work!

So this is the place where I can say how much I don't care about the royal wedding?
I just don't get all the hoopla.

It's a distraction from the suckiness of the rest of the world I suppose. Also, Kate Middleton is pretty cute.

If that is the case, this thread is worthless without pics.

There's a thread for that.

Hey, wasn't there a thread with pictures of pizza or something? Where'd that go? This should become that.

great tweet in my twitter stream this morning from @gracedent: Middleton mother currently locked in bog alone, claws clutching sink, silently mouthing into mirror 'Good Girl, Carol we ****ing DID IT.'

I can honestly say I'm so far removed from this stuff I didn't even know it was happening this weekend. I remember hearing about the engagement months ago but that's about it.

A flight attendant last weekend told my wife she looked like Kate Middleton. I guess it's a complement?

I'd hope so, though I doubt she'd like you calling her "it".

After posting I knew something didn't look right, I went back in to edit to make sure spell check didn't come up and when it didn't show a problem, I went back to watching the episode of South Park that design posted.

I'm firmly in the "who gives a shit" category. Then again I have zero interest in the history of the royal family in general.

Kate Middleton - Lindsay Lohan = Sarah Palin

That said, I would watch Michelle Rodriguez wedding with more interest than the Commonwealth Monarchs', even if it was succeeded by a Manchester game and preceded by a Beatles reunion.

I agree. The timing is very suspicious.

Not as suspicious as the massively bad NHS news the government released... at the exact moment Wills and Kate were taking their vows.

Timing is everything.
