Post #382,518 by mmoffitt 10/22/13 10:42:25 AM Reply	You also forgot to mention your Queen. In fact, all your "royals". Except you don't really have to. Because over here we apparently can't get enough of "the royals" judging by what's on our "news" sites and teevee shows. Pretty idiotic when you think about it: we fought a war and founded a nation so that we didn't have to hear from your royals anymore and now it's HUGE news here when one of them gets knocked up. Or dates. Or falls down drunk. Or loses weight. ... Jesus. You're right. We are an inferior breed.

It was April the 41st. Being a quadruple leapyear, I was driving in downtown Atlantis. My Barracuda was in the shop, so I was in a rented Stingray... and it was overheating.
