Inside scoop: Billy Bob had a flask of JD in the pocket of his silly red monkey suit. The royal limo was sporting Truck Nutz and there was a styrofoam cooler filled with PBR tallboys in the back. They stopped for a bucket of extra crispy at the KFC drive-thru on the way home and immediately put the limo up on blocks in the front yard when they arrived. Then they went inside, put their sock feet on the coffee table, and pounded back Miller Lites while snarfing on the chicken with open mouths and watching re-runs of Hee Haw.

There - SATISFIED! Now ENOUGH with it! Fuck you CNN. Fuck you NBC. Fuck you Yahoo News. ENOUGH!

1. Thanks so much for posting yet another Royal Wedding OP.
Edited on Sat Apr-30-11 09:41 AM by MineralMan
I was beginning to worry that it had already been forgotten. It's good to know that someone is keeping old news at the top of the Latest Page on DU. You have my undying gratitude for not letting this important event assume a lesser role 24 hours after it happened.

Extra Bonus Points for the Fuck you comments in your last sentence. Those really put the icing on the wedding cake...

2. Thanks. You can't even look at the fucking news sites right now. The shit is polluting them.

4. You appear to have missed my point.
Perhaps I should have included a :sarcasm: smilie. I sometimes overestimate people's abilities.

7. No, I got the point - the "thanks" was for the bonus points for the "fuck you" comments.
I'm REALLY pissed at the media. Sorry about another OP.

5. ROFL!
Thank you. It's interesting to note how resentment over media coverage (which was, of course, excessive, but that's the way they are) of a big one-day event that meant a great deal to millions of people in another country, whether we like it or not, continues, for some, to fester after the event is over and after even those of us who found the event interesting and entertaining have turned to other news.

8. Hey another Royal Wedding thread!

9. Rednecks don't have a full orchestra and choir singing classical music.
I had a string quartet (friends of mine from the community orchestra I was in) at my last wedding.

The minister, a Unitarian, was impressed.
