thread for KING CHARLES III (regnal name george vii)

reminds me of my favorite joke

q: why do bagpipe players walk while they play?

a: to get away from the sound

lol

I should like to be piped in

yo chuck, they must be on the pipes right?

Who says these fucks are out of touch

A well aimed punch from Chuck = snooze button.

I hope he wakes him with this every morning...

Truss: “Your Majesty… Lovely to see you again.”

King: “Back again. Dear oh dear. Anyway…”

i got into a minor wikipedia edit war last year over whether another of chuck's mentors laurens van der post raped a girl (he did, which the article now acknowledges).

Doesn't the King's "back again" basically mean "oh, dear, we're meeting again for the first time since the difficult and awkward times after the death of my mother" ?

that's not how it's being interpreted

he means *turns impossibly ancient and woebegone face to viewers* thanks i hate it

So are we saying 'speaking the King's English' now instead of the Queen's English or what?

Out on the king's highway we are.

well we would be if she'd died but

Surely someone has a "why isn't it King's College Belfast now" take

Doubt he'll get to his own coronation at this rate.

Who was Prime Minister when King Charles III ascended to the throne is going to be a really hard pub quiz question in about 20 years

some very disappointing egg throwing skills here, ffs aim for the parasite's head. hilarious replies: "this is treason" ha ha!

good to see the mayor in the apu-takes-a-bullet role

has the royal egg boiler guy finally lost his patience with him?

I just saw a long ITV news item about King Charles on an official visit to Luton.

Visiting a Sikh kitchen he remarked of the dough: "It's wonderful how it rises". The presenter repeated that he had said: "It's wonderful how it rises".

I'd say it must be a slow news day if we still had those.

tbf bread rising is technically wonderful

King Charles dies in a tragic sourdough accident.

It was the best of times, it was the yeast of times

Think he got egged again yesterday

that's not eggy bread

Read that as Eggy Beard - who as we all know was violinist with Scotland's greatest rock group, Chou Pahrot.

Wow, I forgot about this guy.

🚨 | BREAKING: General Llywelyn Fortwilliam has cast doubt over Prince Harry's claim to have killed 25 Taliban fighters.

I'm not sure if this is as funny as I found it this morning!

It's bonkers how the military and others are saying "Prince Harry mentioning killing people is making other soldiers from that war a target".

They were a target during the war. They could be a target now if the Taliban, terrorists, or whoever wants to target them, for having fought in Afghanistan - never mind anything that Prince Harry says. It's not as if it was a secret that UK soldiers killed Afghans during the Afghan war.

if anything you'd be quite fair to suspect that the soldiers that served with him could have been closer to a branch of Spar than any Taliban. More like an executive babysitting platoon than Taliban hunters.

Bizarre threads of media pros saying "by golly my grandfather murdered 80 Germans with his bare hands, but he never spoke a word of it, he bottled those feelings up and only expressed them by beating us with his belt, it's the British way and any suggestion of anything else is a grave insult to our brave troops and our nation"

Agree.

I suppose saying "military secrets should remain secret because this helps our military power" is one thing, and makes its own sense.

But saying "the Taliban will be outraged when they learn that British soldiers killed people in Afghanistan!" doesn't.

tbh the omerta was always largely abt british ppl being outraged that british soldiers were killing people in afghanistan

Pretty sure I remember the little cunt talking about killing ppl at the time and how it was jolly good fun like a video game

obv i don't care about being fair to guillotine-fodder but i've just seen this

The extent to which the British media have misrepresented what Prince Harry wrote about his Afghan war experiences in ‘Spare’ is disquieting. https://t.co/FGlZbC9jRr

the mofo was a certified killing machine in Afghanistan, but heh, not so kool & deadly against a feeble sucker punch attack from his pathetic loser brother.
