      Question for UK people. The Royal wedding has been covered here in the states constantly. I can only assume coverage over there must be bordering on ridiculous. My question is are the British people excited for this? Is it as important  as the American media is saying? Is there a lot of national pride involved? Just curious for my own learning.  Thanks

      Maybe so. Maybe not

                    Being an American, Meghan is undoubtedly the reason for the incessant coverage in the States. The fascination with celebrity is quite sickening, IMO. If they owned any, they'd be pulling on their IH jeans one leg at a time, like the rest of us.

                    My apologies… The second half of this post probably belongs in the rants thread.

                    Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

                                    The irony here being that Hot Ingrid flipped her lid about me doing a day’s work with the Crown Prince of Norway but probably couldn’t pick Haraki-san out of a line up consisting of himself and nine blond twenty year olds.

                                    Me, I’d rather be a dude than a duke.

                                        Who are the Windsor's?

                                        I ask what you guys think because British citizens are portrayed here as being very proud of the royal family and what they “represent” American media lies?? Outrageous.

                                        Think of all the IH gear you can buy with “Duke” money.

                                        Maybe so. Maybe not

                                          I’m skeptical of this. Unless of course you don’t watch any need at all. In that case I get it. Or stand in line at a checkout counter that has magazines. But you do live in Arizona and claim to never be outside… i guess I believe you  😃

                                            You're skeptical of this yet you just asked who the Windsor's are  😉

                                            I'm dead serious.  I never watch TV unless it's sports….only reason I have cable at all is to watch my soccer games.  I don't read the magazines in line at the grocery store either.  I ignore the media as much as possible.

                                            You've got it a bit twisted...I work outside so I'm outside M-F most of the working hours.  In reference to the shorts discussion I was just saying that during the summer in AZ, on my days off, if I'm hanging out outside it's generally around a body of water and/or a grill which means I would obviously have some board shorts/trunks on.  Other than that I'm not hanging out outdoors.  It goes without saying that it's hot AF here in the summer.
