tbf i would travel with my own favorite childhood teddy bear if i could
i don't think the monarchy is gonna make it. queen elizabeth lived so damn long from ww2 to now-ish. i can imagine a certain amount of inertia for legitimacy when the monarch is some ancient little old lady in pastel colors with corgis.
but suddenly, the new monarch is this fuckin' inbred guy who has been a public doofus since always. that has got to move the needle to where more people are like, "wait, how much is wasted on this asshole?"
but suddenly, the new monarch is this fuckin' inbred guy
guy who is completely unfamiliar with monarchy
For anyone alive it is sudden, yeah you can know about history but Elizabeth was queen for the entire lifetime of almost everyone alive
I mean more, like, it’s not a new thing that they’re inbred
yea i know, i just meant that it wasn't as... obvious... with elizabeth as with charles
agree. a lot of Elizabeth's whatever-was-going-on-there was masked by being small and elderly.
king chuck has got it all, proudly, on front street, and his whole vibe is a reminder of the queens non-verbal cousins that were hidden and locked away.
alright am i alone in thinking the 2.5 centimeters is the weirdest part? not even the butler, the SHEER AMOUNT OF TOOTHPASTE
you made me doubt it and i looked and yes, he really does want these things. the toothpaste centimeter thing is because he wants exactly an inch of toothpaste out of a crested silver dispenser, which translates to 2.54cm. the claims come from Omid Scobie's book "Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy’s Fight For Survival"
Charles is inbred right? This is the kind of shit inbred monarchs have always done.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
As much as I'd love to believe this screenshot of uncredited text, this is how I knew it was all fake. No British person cares that much about brushing their teeth
There's interviews with his butler where the butler talks about the toothpaste and also being called into his office in order to throw out one piece of paper into a paperbasket next to the desk.
Skepticism is only worth anything if you follow it up with research and this shit is pretty easy to look into. https://www.cosmopolitan.com/uk/reports/a38743898/prince-charles-doesnt-squeeze-out-his-own-toothpaste/Skepticism is only worth anything if you follow it up with research and this shit is pretty easy to look into.
Yeah I'll do more research the next time I fire off a shitpost on this website that is exclusively dedicated to doing praxis
Please give me some
next time at least
The mean number of missing teeth was significantly higher in the US .. than in England
Consistently higher RII and SII [inequality index] values were found in the US than in England
The oral health of US citizens is not better than the English, and there are consistently wider educational and income oral health inequalities in the US compared with England.
I mean
but this was always silly.Waiting for USAians to come up with a criticism of foreign countries that isn't even worse in their own.
americans make fun of brits for having fairly normal looking teeth, meanwhile americans have weird shiny white teeth that they feel the need to show off to the world doing this face:
This is where it comes from. British people, celebs especially, didn't spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on expensive cosmetic dental surgery, they just had their natural teeth, so they're a bit crooked and a little yellow.
None of this is surprising. Royals were always weird neurotic pussies
custom velvet toilet paper
pause. wtf does that even mean? is he wiping his ass with fucking fabric? is he just regularly annihilating plumbing everywhere he shits or something? i don't understand.
Kinda misleading, Kleenex Velvet is the brand name and it's not sold in some countries so he has to travel with it
Kleenex is basically synonymous with tissue paper in the US but I've never heard of them selling toilet paper before. Cottenelle is the TP brand from Kimberly-Clark in the US.
Really? Over here (Aus) they're known for both. There is a Kleenex product for every orifice!
Apparently they own Kotex as well, so every orifice is truly accounted for.
Napkins and cotton swabs too? Here Kleenex is strictly for your nose (or nut). I think the tissues did so well that the idea of Kleenex for your butt is weird.
It's just toilet paper, which is probably made in the same factories as tissue paper, so Kleenex decided to cut out the middleman there. Not sure why they only do it in some places though. Maybe the US has too competitive of a toilet paper market?
No its a simple matter of branding. Kleenex is a brand owned by Kimberly Clark, which also owns the TP brand Cottonelle. No reason to compete against yourself unless you're trying to make another brand look good by comparison.
Theres also the fact that the Kleenex brand in the US is extremely closely tied to facial tissues that its basically synonymous. Making a Kleenex TP would dilute that reputation.
tissue paper
For us, tissue paper is the thin packing paper that comes with fancy chocolates or gifts. We call facial/jizzual tissues just 'tissues'
Probably extra soft toilet paper kept away from us because if we knew there more than one kind of softness, we'd never stop killing for it
He's got a dude whose job it is to emboss the royal monogram on every square of what's otherwise just Charmin 2 ply.
They call him the
Lord of the Privy ChamberEdit - Even better! A Groom of the Stool
Heneage and Denny, as servants "whom he used secretly about him", were privy to Henry VIII's most intimate confidences about Anne of Cleves. He told them he doubted her virginity, on account of "her brests so slacke".
Why is this so funny to me, wtf are you on about Henry
Like that this comments section isn't filled with his defenders claiming this extreme privilege is just undiagnosed autism and criticizing it is ableism like I've seen when this is posted elsewhere.
I think that's more insulting to autistic people than making fun of a Prince for being a spoiled adult brat who throws temper tantrums. Autistic people arent that demanding and if someone was, they would still need to be rich and privileged enough to make those impositions
In this case it wouldnt make a difference. I know ive read way back that mental health treatment is at its lowest at the poorest and richest levels, poorest cause lack of access and richest cause you can just pay make the world suit you. I have no idea how fact based this was, it was years ago that I saw it, but it passes a vibes check
mental health treatment is at it's lowest at the poorest and richest levels ... richest cause you can just pay make the world suit you
I have a friend who did house renovations on Hawaii for the rich and famous, and he has the wildest stories. Like one couple that rented a mansion and the wife remodeled it with fur-on-the-walls 70s chic. Why?! I quote, "she gets what she wants", then paid to remodel it back. These people weren't even that wealthy comparatively, maybe $70MM net worth. The wife was an heiress of something, but I can't remember.
I don't often get struck by a story, but my friend has a way of getting me to
lmao that's incredible. I love when people use woke talking points to defend the most reactionary people on the planet, it's genuinely hilarious
I thought about making a joke about him being an autistic king tbh
I myself have a plush isopod and that's never impacted my work but the rest is ridiculous
If i could afford Royalty Level toilet paper I'd probably take it with me as well. Probably hard to go back
if I were one of the most privileged people on Earth, I would use a bidet and then it wouldn't matter what kind of toilet paper I use
look at my divinely appointed ruler dawg I'm going to starve

Sick fitSometimes I have a fantasy of becoming POTUS and demanding the UK giving me the crown jewels as an act of fealty. Then I leverage the jewels to sweeten some trade deal with India. It usually ends with me holding up the hope diamond that shines across a cricket stadium as I yell the hindi equivalent of "Ich bin ein Berliner".

imagine trying to explain to any indigenous group on turtle island or in africa that the soulless mayoids that are about to invade, genocide, and enslave them are exclusively ruled by petulant children wearing silly clothes and wigs and funny hats.
There is actually a tribe in the Amazon that considers him some sort of god of fertility. There's a docuseries about it.
Edit: googled it and found the cargo cult "the prince Philip movement". Probably the ones I was thinking of, so not a tribe but a part of one.
that was his dad, i wonder what they're up to now the old lich is dead
Because there is a smaller hat inside that actually fits on her head I think. Otherwise the fancy crown would just slip down and cover her face.
Legendary Achievement (Unclaimed): If you give the hat a big enough bop on top it slips over her face and her head gets stuck in it.
I think my mom had the same purple dress when she was pregnant.
We need an emoji of the baby from Dinosaurs
this guy ain’t cutting itYou don't understand, he forced the media to use the full government name instead of "prince Andrew"
sometimes i wonder just how insufferable i would be had i grown up in the royal family
