News reports in the queens death

Do you really believe that?
We’re talking about a death here, not the swanky hierarchy of celebs who strut about on a daily basis.
Death is kind of a great leveller don’t you think.
I don’t really see all the media about the Queen’s death as a load of BS either.

But each to their own.

PS. You seem to have a book to recommend for every eventuality Azz. Your bookcase must make for some interesting, but selective, reading.

I wish I’d thought to just say that :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Surely, there should be some sort of representation from the Over50’schat forum at the funeral? It would be great publicity for the forum… to be seen worldwide.
The membership would escalate… we’d be the talk of the world! :laughing:

Yes, she’s very funny at first until she becomes like a laughing hyena, or the Laughing Policeman that you saw in a glass case in some amusement arcade years ago!

I remember them - they scared me witless!

Fortunately only the $5 note and coins have the Monarch’s head on them. Charles will be facing left on the coins, not that many people use them nowadays.

Goodness, that’s going back a bit.
Those wibbly wobbly hall of mirrors at Blackpool used to frighten me … made me look fearsome and fat.

Azz… Tell me… if you had been nominated for a knighthood from the Queen, for your services to Social Media/Forums etc, would you have accepted it?

Said nicely…

Oh Miss …Miss … can I answer that one! :smiley:

Only, if Azz asks the audience, or phones a friend?

Damn … I don’t qualify.

Absolutely not :lol:

Tho if I were ever asked I would have politely explained why, and maybe even diplomatically offered some thoughts on a better way (for her).

I wouldn’t have been unkind to her, my default position when meeting anyone is that of friendship and kindness. (Unless they’re just plain evil!!)

Ah, the good old all people are equal, but some are more equal to others stuff, eh? We all know how the pigs turned out in that little tale.

I totally agree with this Azz.
The media sets the precedence of what is normal and what is not through the establishments interface with the people, TV, radio, news papers, and now their most powerful tool…Wifi and a connection to the World Wide Web wherever we go and sitting on a shelf (Alexa etc) in our front rooms. There is or will be, no escape.

I have just seen and heard this and I’m disgusted . This person has a very nasty kind. To wish someone an excruciating death is just horrible.

Around an hour before news of the Queen’s death broke, Bezos quoted a tweet from Carnegie Mellon professor Uju Anya, who’d written several hours before: “I heard the chief monarch of a thieving raping genocidal empire is finally dying. May her pain be excruciating.”

Wow

@LionQueen - I am shocked, Queenie, that is just sick - and shows what awful places twitter and faecesbook really are to allow such vitriolic comments.

It was on Twitter and they did not allow it.
The comment was deleted on the same day it was posted and reported.

A Twitter spokesperson said, " We took enforcement action on the account you referenced for violating the Twitter Rules on abusive behaviour." These rules include “Wishing, hoping, or calling for serious harm on a person or group of people.”

Unfortunately, other folk have copied and shared what she wrote so her vengeful words are still being circulated around the internet, which is what she intended.
I hope folk stop helping her to circulate them by repeating them. They do not deserve any “airtime”
