can confirm, queen is dead but I still say god save the queen out of habit

When your king is that old, it's wise to not get used to "god save the king"

I give him a couple years tops

[–] Diprount_Tomato@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's not that I wish him to be dead, but he has been waiting for the crown for too long to actually enjoy a reign

But the next monarch is King too.

[–] RedAggroBest@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Sounds like Death needs to aim for a double kill. Been too long since Britain had a child monarch.

Here's the difference though. Tea leaves will actually drive the ants way.

[–] JesusTheCarpenter@feddit.uk 15 points 2 years ago (3 children)

According to this, British people are ants as I am pretty sure that ants would enjoy the sweet beans on toast.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 5 points 2 years ago

Although they'd probably prefer the sickly sugar water that Heinz come in, rather than the far superior Branston beans.

[–] sneezycat@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah British people are just a subset of weak ants, clearly.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

This requires some experimentation.

To the lab!

Exactly, what kind of blasphemy is this? It's beams on toast.

[–] pagshile@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Beams, Jesus? Your day job is showing…

[–] JesusTheCarpenter@feddit.uk 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Didn't you read the Bible you jerk? It says Thou shan't correcth thy son of God on thy interneths.

[–] pagshile@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

Jesus, Jesus. Aren’t you supposed to be turning the other cheek or something?

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 5 points 2 years ago

It's really not on at all that some countries still have their own cultural icons. They all need to be in the British museum where they can be conveniently appreciated.

"All ants are British 'cuz they colonize" -Dan Cummins

[–] Lowered_lifted@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

We need to do one for the continent where it's like France/Belgium/Netherlands Venn diagram with the neighbor's dog that they swear isn't racist but only barks at black people.

[–] poplargrove@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Nah it was away from their colonies, thats how money gets made.

[–] Diprount_Tomato@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Everyone makes fun of the British museum, but am*ricans stole too, even entire fucking buildings

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

And the first (colonial) Americans were originally British. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
