It's the holidays and people are bored

PLUS

Meme about lots of famous people dying in 2016

EQUALS

Bellends on Twitter saying the Queen is dead

*really doesn't.

Edit: Queen is dead? Well, to be fair, they were never the same after Freddie passed.

So the Queen isn't dead?

Does this mean we're not going to get an extra days holiday then?

In all seriousness, where has this been trending/reported? I am fairly balls deep in the internet, and not seen nothing about her Maj.

So glad you didn't mistype that.

In my experience, she is not commonly found at ball depth.

🙂

I thought the Russian Embassy had won the internet today ?

I think it was close enough.

As per one of the comments: that has all the hallmarks of Trump's campaign team.

spooky, as i was told the other day on [i]fairly[/i] good authority that either her maj or phil is likely to pass away very soon. got a family member with strong army ties that says theyve been told to prepare for it imminently, (whatever it is that they have to prepare), they just havent been told which one.....

strong army ties

oh my god can you imagine the gushing bullshit frenzy the media will have when the queen dies, a mother, a grandmother, a great grandmother, the leader of the common wealth, the leader of our armed forces and church of england, King of the Andals and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, and Protector of the Realm.

I won't be able to watch TV news for several months.

That's not exactly a shock though; the annual mortality rate in people >90 is 22%

agreed, im not even sure itd be worth a bank holiday

 

Come on Kimbers,we might aswell all benefit 😀

according to this website http://royalcentral.co.uk/other/what-will-happen-when-the-queen-dies-70953

We'll get two bank holidays, one for the funeral day and one for the coronation. Waheyyyy. 2 extra days off work to go bike riding!!

got a family member with strong army ties

Is he a cleaner at the local TA office?

Along with all comedy being cancelled, the London Stock Exchange would close, along with many banks, for a few days. With the logistics out of the way, the day of the funeral, believed to 12 days after her passing, would be declared a national bank holiday in which the economy would possibly lose up to £6 billion

not sure what annoys me more the cancelling of "comedy" shows or grinding to a halt of the economy because some old dear has popped her clogs

I expect the Army are told this every year - it will be quite a show when she goes.

But that website does look like a load of old cobblers.

I suspect much less will happen than mentioned in that article

We were told several years ago when working for a broadcaster that Prince Philip was very ill and to be prepared. So I wouldn't read too much into it.

I am fairly balls deep in the internet

I saw a video about that once.

Interestingly I just stumbled on this item on the Beeb website:

I like her. I like Charles. Whether I would feel the same about a monarch younger me I hope I don't find out.
