Don't give shit

Level 8

I want to watch it but I don't get into hype.

@Hellbent Pomp and circumstance. Uniforms. Pretty people with frivolous, fluffy clothes. Horses. English stuff. Fun. Love. Happiness in the news - for a change. Why not ?

@evergreen exactly! ? watched Charles marry Diana, Diana's funeral, William marrying Catherine, even watched a bit of when Charles married Camilla, so why not. Its tea and scones with a bit of cream and jam.

@Donna_I .... atta girl ! And crazy fascinators - lest we forget !

@evergreen oh the hats! Love the hats!

@Hellbent it isn't just the royals(they are the only ones I watch but not really the point). Think about some of the other shows on t.v. i.e. the bachelor/ bachelorette rediculiousness, the televised Kim Kardashian wedding, then you have the tabloids following all the rich and famous to see what they are doing - marriages/divorces/affaires... etc.

@Hellbent i would probably put them out ☺ but in the grand scheme of things I don't wrap much of my life with them...

@Hellbent Tolerance Sir ... tolerance. Same as what we want. Isn't there enough bad wishes floating around already ? (smile)

Honestly I don't understand the obsession. At this point the royal family just kind of seem like glorified state dept executives

Level 7

Just a couple of humans making vows in front of a religion-promulgated court. I don't believe in the "Divine Right of Kings" and the idea that one bloodline is more important than another. It's ridiculous and long-outmoded. I've found that even some British people who are non-believers still get upset if you point this out, though.

Don't care about other weddings, why would I care about that one? It's got nothing to do with me, and vice versa.

Level 6

Not interested

Level 8

Not at all really.

They are adorable though.

I think his mother's greatest gift was teaching her sons that they could act like humans in public.

Level 8

I openly admit it interests me. I find it a welcome happy relief from the doings in the rest of the world !

Level 7

Mildly interested. I'll watch the highlights.

0

Level 6

I don’t care at all.

Level 9

I'm interested in watching the people who are interested, if you get my drift. It's like I meta-care about the wedding.

Level 6

No interest whatsoever.

Level 2

Don't care

Level 3

I'm definitely interested in it. I won't be waking up at 4am to watch; but i will probably tape it.

Level 7

The who ?
No. I wasn't even aware there was one happening.
Now that I do know I didn't need to.

Level 9

Actually, I enjoy it. I grew up on the Canadian border and Canada is part of the empire. Also Queen Elizabeth's mother and I shared the same birthday. My ancestry is heavy English. So, I simply enjoy the pomp and circumstance. Kind of a bright spot to distract my mind for a bit from monster tRump.

The only thing that I find in anyway appealing is the bride’s being so far from what was once an acceptable choice. Other than that I could care less.

How much less....exactly ?
(couldn't resist 🙂

@Slappy_Longarms Her mom is a yoga instructor and social worker and is African American. Her dad lives in Mexico and they are divorced. Markie is herself an actress and has been divorced from Trevor Engelson. None of that bothers me but not all that long ago, it would have pretty much made her unacceptable for the Royal family’s views. What I find appealing is that things are changing even with the pomp and ceremony of the Royals. I find that encouraging but everything else about them is what I don’t give a crap about.

@gearl - Very nice thoughts. Mine are that the royal family needed a boost to keep their jobs, and this is a great PR move.

@GoldenDoll That certainly is plausible.

Level 9

I was/am marginally aware there is a wedding and who is getting married. Beyond that, I don't care.

I am sick to death of this Royal wedding, an extra person who Australia will blindly, partcially support, plus whatever children they have. I am sick to death of hearing all this belittling garbage about Megan’s family. I love Diana for taking the posh out of the Royal family

Diana was totally posh. From the same breeding stock.

She was only chosen because she was the only aristo still a virgin at 19.
