    I don't know, it's all pageantry.
    Why doesn't america have inbred, old, ugly tourist attractions that we give millions of dollars to to live uncannily wealthy lives?

    I've been covertly singing the lyrics to this for the last few days whenever God Save the Queen is played.



    The English schweinehunde have thus far suspected nothing.

    Yes, that's what I mean.

    Maybe, but I have seen her when she is 100% reading from a script, this time, she was just using it to help her.
