I want somebody who is elected to be head of state. Technically, the reason she is head of state is because she was given the right to by god. In other words, fuck all.
The Jubilee is also an excuse for people to buy an obscene amount of flags: [img]http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Media/Pix/pictures/2012/5/31/1338461933479/Jubilee-flags-008.jpg[/img] [IMG]http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash2/p480x480/156556_10150803655355677_98963290676_9758505_279150963_n.jpg[/IMG]

Going to be treating it like any other weekend, only difference being that I might get off my PC for once and play my dusting consoles all day on Monday.
You bow down to a false queen. Queen Silvia of Sweden is the rightful heir of the Iron Throne. [img]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mUDI2WIl6cg/SrKfN04-zjI/AAAAAAAAFTI/Jd6_wMtz8V0/s400/Nobel%2BPrize%2BAward%2BCeremony%2B2008%2Ba-a1pvNVI4Gl.jpg[/img] Abandon ye old hag, and embrace queen Silvia.
She looks like the Joker.
Shit, Canada doesn't get a 4-day weekend. Still, "for Queen and Colony" and all that. I don't know about you guys but I definitely recognize why we still have a monarchy; it's good to have a figurehead who represents your country, and yet doesn't have to do anything controversial and therefore can be loved by anybody, regardless of political viewpoints. Plus she seems like such a nice lady.
Today the Queen went to the races: [IMG]http://i49.tinypic.com/11hfc4o.png[/IMG] Where Katherine Jenkins sang God Save The Queen [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twaEifDmGqk[/media]
I get to celebrate my birthday on her jubilee as well, the 5th! Union Jack cake in order and a few brews at the pub
Whens the old hag gonna kick the bucket?

There are people who live here really struggling, they've worked all their lives and now have 2 eat out of bins just to survive, yet this old fucking hag sits in a palace getting her buttlers 2 server her a perfect 3 meals a day, what does she do.... she does fuck all except have a 'jubilee' where the whole country is expected 2 serve her shitty ass country that's falling apart... that's what she does. They should make her live like the rest of us for a week. and those who disagree, your a bunch of fucking chucklefucks

Well, it's good to see your doing well Britain. Give some lazy shit who doesn't have any purpose besides tourism value and "tradition" lodsamone, then celebrate the fact that she's richer than all of you because she's the descendant of some guy you don't care about and give her even [B]more[/B] money. Christ, we don't even do anything like this for the President and he works even harder. [sp]And come on, even you guys know that this whole "royalty" thing is basically a load 'o crap. Despite that, I'm sure it still has it's benefits for the commoner over there (all dat tourism money)[/sp]

Maybe we should ask the queen! She brings us, millions, literally millions of income from tourism. Even from Americans.

Even from Americans.[/QUOTE] That's what I put in spoilers basically. She's useless in government, as she has no more function or say in, well, anything really, but, like I said, she still can aid the common poor man with "all dat tourism money." Still, I do feel like she is really, really, [B]dreadfully[/B] over-exaggerated. For someone who has no say in government, you sure do give her a lot of nice things.

I'm going to laugh at your petty monarchy, and continue studying for my finals here in the great US of A.
[QUOTE=Sobotnik;36142588]I'll be too busy playing videogames to notice or care that this archaic leftover from the Medieval era is worth celebrating. If they advertise Britain, the advertisement is probably: Come to Britain! Land of rich, chinless former Germans! Come see our castles and palaces! Then go home! You can't have them! Your monetary contribution will almost offset the costs of keeping these Germans covered in beer and jewels![/QUOTE] Oh my god [QUOTE=gonedead0;36179183]I'm going to laugh at your petty monarchy, and continue studying for my finals here in the great US of A.[/QUOTE] Well that's fine and dandy, it's not like we can't study in the comfort of our houses for a 4 day period, right??
She actually does a lot more than you give her credit for, she's pretty much zipping round the country doing queeny things 24/7
Hello, This is only the second Diamond Jubilee ever to be celebrated in ... Activities over the weekend to honor the 86-year-old Queen's reign include ...

God, she looks so dumb.
do british people only have 1 holiday celebrating the queen?
I am doing fuck all. Not into queens and shit. But I do believe the Monarchy does have a purpose. They are kind of like ambassadors for England, they go around, meet other heads of state and discuss important stuff. Also, they bring in millions with the tourist industry. Also I laughed at an ad for desert eagles with that first video.

It's only with this Jubilee stuff did I notice that the British flag isn't mirror symmetrically down the middle. [i]Now it bugs the shit out of me.[/i]
