Just Had Lunch With the Queen!

It matters? There's two kinds of people in the world: those who bunch up their toilet paper, and those who fold it.

Sometimes you can act semi-intelligent and then you post something like this. Thanks D3V!

Semi-intelligent?? Which forum have you been visiting??!

Jamesadin...don'tcha think she's small? She looks far bigger on TV...and then you see her IRL...and she's small...

Does the queen of canada even do anything?

Well, she is the queen of the Commonwealth, not just Canada... But no, she doesn't do TOO much. By law, she does have supreme power over everyone, but she chooses to let the politicians do their jobs.

The only thing I don't like about the Royal Family is how everyone who lives in England (and possibly Canada and other countries under rule, I'm not sure) is a "subject", not a "citizen". Call me a stereotypical American if you like, but I wouldn't like being referred to as somebody's "subject". And I know the difference is mainly wording in the case of the US vs GB, seeing as how we have similar rights, but it still would get to me.

We watched a video on "Elizabeth R" the other day in British Literature, I thought the whole Hat of State thing was kinda funny.

As far as I can tell, she does bugger all. All down to our civil wars and Oliver "Ironsides" Cromwell.

Here's a nice fact for you: At the start of his reign King Charles I (Of England) was 5' 4" tall. At the end of his reign he was 4' 8" tall.

Because of the old Royalty being better than God argument, Parliament now runs the country and the Queen does nothing more than...erm...Queen.

She mostly just goes around, chats with people...sometimes opens up parliament... and you know... cuts ribbons and stuff.
