Ooh, my favorite!

But why? It’s not very nice of you to want to crush people, especially not me, as I am small and timid, but Scottish independence has nothing to do with the queen.

Are you already crushing all those places like the U.S.A., Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, India … oh shit, lots of places … that removed themselves from being ruled from London?

That’s a whole lot of crushing going on. Maybe you could make a song about that. :smiley:

And I must say, “unlinkely event” is an absolutely beautiful typo: I suppose un-linking is exactly it. :slight_smile:

Hardly appropriate for the current monarch. You need this scrumptious delicacy!

God sure didn’t save King George VI from lung cancer, did He? And I bet an awful lot of people were praying for him too.
