Queen Elizabeth II, Longest Reigning Monarch of England/UK, Dies

[The Rogue Wolf]

You think that's silly-- some Wetherspoons condom machines have been deactivated with a note saying they won't be selling "sheaths" currently as a mark of respect.

A friend of mine took a picture of the notice, so it's not a rumour, I've seen it.

"Until the King is crowned, your crown goes bare."

Center Parcs backtracks on Queen's funeral closure plans

Holidaymakers had previously been told to leave Center Parcs sites for a day or go home early.

Re: Centerparcs closing for the day. They're not doing it (you'll be relieved to know), because they weren't just closing in-park activities for the day or asking people to delay arrival, they were asking people to go home for 24 hours in the middle of their holiday then go back the next day to continue their holiday. Absolutely what-the-fuck levels of idiocy.

You'll not get one for Charlie, nowhere near popular enough. I reckon you'll be lucky if it's not unpaid overtime.

Lucky you, we got a monarch too, with their own Dynasty Day, but it's not a national holiday. Bunch of useless inbreds could've been good for something, but nah.

City hall got the day, nobody else did. Bastards.

Oooh shit and then I check the news a minute later and the Feds are pushing for a stat everywhere. Let's see who stonewalls for the sake of productivity.

Aaand they dropped it. Welp there went my interest in this event.

I'll never accept a Queenslander on my currency.

I was hoping for a permanent Stat in Canada but it seems like that's a no go. People recently asked me if I'm a monarchist, but the truth is I just figure if we get a day for every recent Regent's birthday and funeral we could be down to a four day work week. Nobody ever even remembers Victoria Day is for her b-day around here. It's just May Long, the first long weekend of spring. Could do with a few more of those.

Someone needs to off some of---- I mean some of them should past peacefully in like, November, August (which allready has one that counts for basically no one), June, March cuz we ain't ever gonna get two in one month

This shameless goddamn bait. It almost worked!

And they have closed the queue! Five miles! Deranged! I think there's a lesson here for all the snooty Brits who laughed at the weird devotion of the people chanting at Trump's rallies.

Also, this is just an amusingly cropped headline:

If they aren't dressing up with horns and trying to lynch Charles and restore Elizabeth, they're not as bad as the Americans.

On the other hand, people queuing for 5 miles is peak British.

Joining the longest, saddest queue in the world and tutting that some people aren't sufficiently sad.

They're still better behaved and more likely to be people I’d want to hang out with.

Chanting is usually a funeral faux pas.
