Ay ay ay, we cant just do that. Or can we?
Off with her pigtails!
I live in Finland, I vote we start from Finland!
Sureā¦ You go ahead and start.
Iāll be thereā¦ Ehmā¦ Soon ā¢
We have had 2 monarchies, theyre long gone
We (The Netherlands) still have one.
Leeching on taxpayers.
Ugh.
I tend to agree. Maybe not to the same degree but yes ^^
Weāre very strict when it comes to hunting and the amount allowed each year is based around animal population for that year.
Also Iāve never heard of anyone not using the meat, hide, horns etc which is good.
But still. Iām happy itās handled with respect here (except for poachers) and I try (poorly) to avoid telling others what they should or shouldnāt do when theyāre legally allowed. So itās simply something I donāt partake in. Which is ironic because I have a hunting license
Again, I agree.
At the very least not to throw as much as taxpayer money at it as we currently do.
I more hate the billionaires who do absolutely nothing and just buy expensive things for the sake of it; like a t-shirt for thousands of pounds. You could easily get a very decent t-shirt for Ā£30 max and thatās being pretty picky imo. I think beyond Ā£10 is ridiculous.
Iād rather we get rid of all them than the monarchy. The monarchy are actually forced to do constant charity and public work, always be perfect, never say a bad thing or stand up for themselves and be scrutinised by the media and everyone in the world simply for being born into it.
Iām sure they would like to not be royal and have a normal life; no, they donāt have the same problems as everyday people but that doesnāt mean they donāt have problems. Theyāll never get that in the UK, people will always want to know about them. Unless youāre Harry
My only reason to complete that questline. Itās crazy good for a scarlet RPer and I got both a good weapon and shield from TP to go with it (the weapon is still up, btw).
Thatās alright, just do it with that lock and the set should stay saved for your other toons.
Itās a little sad itās primarily designed with warriors and paladins in mind, even if my only hooman is a warrior. There should have been a cloth and leather version (with leather being usable by hunters, because most mail mogs are eww).
Hmm, technically the belf armor has a robe and a tunic, because as a pally I doubt you wanna wear a dress.
I do wish the velf armor worked like that, but thankfully Lesser Wizardās Robe is a perfect match for casters.
Velves are cool yet only thereās a single set, boo!
(It is a good set though!)
It does also need to factor in what having a royal family may do for a countryās ability to market itself through having them as representatives. Of course that does bring up the issue of having that role being inherited compared to having it elected, like with a president.
Most european royal families donāt get to exhibit too much political power because trying that would lead to a french revolution lite.
I donāt like either of those things.
Both of them could make due with way less and be absolutely fine.
Well apparently not cool enough.
I feel you. Gnomes are in the same boat.
I have to disagree with you there. I hate the void elf heritage armor. Itās extremely ugly imo.
The heritage armors I like: Orc, Magāhar, Goblin, Kul Tiran (not all of it, but the coat is cool), Vulpera, Troll and the two Tauren ones I like, but to a lesser degree.
The other racesā heritage sets I donāt like as a whole, but some have nice individual parts.
Ye, ours basically have no political power what so ever. Which makes me question the need for royalty even more.
On one hand it probably has some benefits and I do enjoy the idea of keeping traditions alive.
But on the other hand I question if that super extravagant lifestyle is needed to keep that tradition alive.
Years back some newspaper tried to calculate how much the royal house here costs the taxpayer versus what it earned and the income was nowhere near the expense.
But itās not something thatās easily calculated and I donāt remember how they did it so
Iām also very cynical and donāt believe political/royal relations mean anything and is just thrown away or upheld to suit whatever the situation requires.
Aaand it would be super hilarious to see the royal family living a standard suburban lifestyle and have real jobs
I agree over consumption is kinda meh but I dont know what to do anything about it, I just do decisions as one guy like ādo i rly need thisā etc and buy what gives me most value overall, but Im also not rich so I dont have much choise
His films are hilarious- his parodies of Star Wars and Robin Hood in particular
I didnt mention Blazing Saddles either, but none of his films would get past the censors these days
I agree the one parody made from star wars is bis tier content
āWhats up Colonel Sanders ?? Are you chicken??ā
Waddup Iām only here to report that tonite weāre going hard. Only 1-0 but who cares. Solid performance, couple of unlucky situations, Garnacho trolling hard.
I do prefer them having no real political power since iām not fond of dictatorships but it also helps that itās allowed to scrutinize them, unlike in certain other countries with an active monarchy. Granted, especially England take the scrutiny part and dials it up to 100 because tabloids feel like they need something to write about. Glad it isnāt nearly as bad here in Denmark.
Not sure how theyād even calculate it without a whole lot of guesstimates. Short of asking tourists if the royal family played a role in them visiting and to what degree then itās hard to get any quantifiable number. I do have the feeling that the danish royal family is maybe a little more active than the Dutch one but that may just be because we donāt have newspapers writing much about the Dutch royal family in general.
It would but even more so iād like to see certain billionaires live the life of more ordinary people.
