Republican Party

Khwarizmi · 2011-04-29 11:25:22

My neighbours threw one today. I didn't go, because their parties aren't really my thing.

It seems a bit silly to me. Like, wanting an excuse to celebrate on the day of the royal wedding while emphasising your opposition to it.
Now let's see how many people threadhop.

Rottweiler · 2011-04-29 11:28:02

They want an English republic, huh?

How do you celebrate that? Do you Praise God, barebones?

Elbeem · 2011-04-29 11:28:40

I see what you did here.

glennmagusharvey · 2011-04-29 11:32:50

It is ti-ime to stand up and say
we get to choose
we get to choose
it's one of the two:
liberty, or tyranny /
Can we please choose something in-between?
mediocrity? chastity? puppetry? obesity?
marijuanity? pretty please?

IanExMachina · 2011-04-29 11:35:46

I guess it's a way of having fun on a bank holiday, whilst pointing out you don't value the royals.

Khwarizmi · 2011-04-29 11:36:21

Day off, might as well make the best of it?

IanExMachina · 2011-04-29 11:37:00

^ Yup. Also probably a bit of enjoying being contrary as well.

Tnu1138 · 2011-04-29 11:38:46

Glenn wha tis that song? I like it.

glennmagusharvey · 2011-04-29 11:40:02

Auto-Tune the News #6

Rottweiler · 2011-04-29 11:41:16

So they're attending the Republican Party because they like Sarah Palin, right?

Khwarizmi · 2011-04-29 11:42:23

I have just been informed that they did have little Union Flags in the sandwiches.

I'm not sure what that suggests. Patriotic republicanism?

Tnu1138 · 2011-04-29 11:43:02

Thanks it's just such a nice song I choose Liberty because I see no other option.

IanExMachina · 2011-04-29 11:43:36

^^ Yeah, celebrating the country (due to it having many fine things) and pride, but not agree with the hereditary head of state.

So yeah British Republicans, still proud just not of the Royal family.

glennmagusharvey · 2011-04-29 11:45:56

^^ Really? Not marijuanity?

Tnu1138 · 2011-04-29 11:46:23

Dissent is the highest form of patriotism.

IanExMachina · 2011-04-29 11:48:23

^Patriotismis the highest form of patriotism.

Hmm superscript doesn't appear to work

Tnu1138 · 2011-04-29 11:52:13

but that is just a redundent statement you have to ask what Patriotism is?

IanExMachina · 2011-04-29 11:54:37

It was going to be a visual pun, as superscript is 'higher' than normal text, so superscripted patriotism would be higher etc.

However the superscript button appears not to work.

Tnu1138 · 2011-04-29 11:55:22

oooh now I get it.

Rottweiler · 2011-04-29 11:56:03

Not all the water in the rough rude sea
Can wash the balm off an anointed king.

Khwarizmi · 2011-04-29 11:59:07

Apparently there were royalists attending who sneaked a TV viewing part way though.

So perhaps not a very successful party.

Saigyouji · 2011-04-29 12:00:03

Yay. Superscript works but doesn't work at the same time.

glennmagusharvey · 2011-04-29 12:03:15

normalscript ^superscript _subscript

Well, that's interesting.

Tnu1138 · 2011-04-29 12:13:33

Did anyone else click this topic thinking it was about the Republican Party?

IanExMachina · 2011-04-29 12:25:44

Tut tut at people spoiling the Republican party.

Tnu1138 · 2011-04-29 12:30:28

I say we just dissolve them British Conservatives and New Labor are just about as good as the British National Party. Only real decent paerties are the Liberal Democrats and Greens.

Khwarizmi · 2011-04-29 12:37:33

I don't think the Tories or New Labour are as bad as the BNP, but they're not great. Lib Dems aren't that much better, though.

Greens are OK, but I don't like their stance on nuclear power.

Tnu1138 · 2011-04-29 13:14:27

you know weren't the Conservatives Started upt to Combat the Torries who kept changing the laws?

I prefer communist parties. BYOB and all the booze gets distributed evenly.

Tnu1138 · 2011-04-29 13:21:25

yeah then everybody is short on booze.

Howdy, Stranger!
