Why on Earth do people love the royal family

Its really quite straightforward.

If you were Australian you had to know what I was talking about (as would a Kiwi) if you weren't you wouldn't have a clue. Every country has this specialised knowledge that others dont know but everyone from that country does know. All the Aussies here knew what i was talking about and you didn;t. I had to think of something you couldn't just google for.

If you are older than 35 you would know which Grace had a daughter called Kitty or you could tell me who has just been done for kiddy fiddling in Pommyland but it was a couple of little girls not boys

 

Well there you have it! I'm amused that it couldn't get the red shelled lolly question! Love the grace and kitty question!

 

It is strange that he won't, he is quite forward at offering us advice on how we should run our country and what is wrong with it, but seems reluctant to tell us where he is really from. He is hiding something.

 

Something to do with his third leg. Oh that is bad.

 

In what is possibly your home country, the US of A, they use "Who won a particular baseball game" as a determinant as to whether you would make a good citizen. Go figure.

 

funny you should ask....

I have always been amused, living my life split between both countries at how Americans REVERE the royals, while Canadians tolerate them while kind of secretly admiring the rock star glitter.

It always amused me that the US took up arms in a long and bloody war to get rid of the monarchy, immediately turned around and built their president a castle and artificially created "royal" treatment including the tune "pomp and circumstance' [sometimes referred to as pomp-ass stance"

The royals are not so loved here....they are seen more like Hollywood celebs without the public drunkenness, drug use and divorces....

well not as much... but hey, we're Canadian, we get tired at sneering at American movies stars....

 

So Culldave, Can you see what it is yet?

 

People love what they stand for; our Consitutional Monarchy system.

A level of protection for the People above the politicians.

Have anymore St. Olaf stories Rose?

 

Are you replying to me or Dominor Vobis who made the original comment ?because if its to me I have no Idea what you are talking about.

 

As the rest of the world is going to hell in a handbasket...the Monarchy, all it stands for, and our Australian Constitutional Monarchy...stands tall.

Gotta love The Crown, to which the troops are loyal.

The Royal Family...White [Protestant] Christian folk...no wonder most of the world today hates them!

Go the White [Protestant] Christian folk! Go the Royal Family!

Unfortunately, even in 2013, we still have adult big-babies that like to be pushed around in a pram. Some people just hate the idea of standing on their own two feet.

 

Still pretending to be a digger Culldave?

 

don't think too many love the royal family
its a stupid institution that works.Something branch stackers and numbers men cant get their hands on.Weary of change, not wanting more politicians.
Where I am the odd one out is that I think the queen has been a terrible queen.Just look at the family,the queen's responsibility. Dysfunctional, that does nothing to enhance the institution.actually more damage.

 

You would be very wrong there

It certainly works

You are odd one out

And yet it hasn;t affected her ability as Queen at all.

 

well lets just say this dysfunctional family
does not have the respect
Charles and Camilla?Come on.Will Camilla ever be addressed as queen,I don't think so.Why not?
Sarah Ferguson,she sells access to Prince Andrew,how much?
The royal family were the epitome of good manners.Notice how I used the word "were".Past tense,
okay they might not be Bogans, but they are not the class act they were once.
The Queen, what is so good about a Queen that only show emotions about horses. Remeber the opening of the London Olympics?Did she ever smile or looked like she wanted to be there?

 

Of who?

The moment the Queen dies Camilla will get the title 'Queen' whether you like it or not.

Sarah Ferguson,she sells access to Prince Andrew,how much?

not a member of the Royal familly

Yes there we are; how brave of you.

That's it? That is your great rebuke to the Monarch ...she didn't smile much? F@ck but that is a pretty lame complaint.

 

Long live King Charles!

Depends on whether your intelligent interpretation of a “digger” is knowing what a Jaffa is?

 

The Royals are dysfunctional leaches, who should have went the way of the dinosaur Cenutries ago.

 

However they never actually lie to us about what nationality they are...unlike you who pretended to be Australian when you are clearly no such thing and we have effectively demonstrated that right here.

Given that you don't instinctively know the difference between 'should have gone' and 'should have went' (which is not possible in English)
you are either a semi literate seppo or from a non speaking country altogether.

 

Present perfect.

subject + have/has + past participle

absolutely correct. The fake Australian used the simple past instead of the past participle.

 

The comprehension police now decide the nationality of an individual based on their comprehension skills.

Tell me what its like to live up your own arse?
