The Duchess of Cambridge has given birth to a son! Congratulations, Great Britain!

Thanks Debbie Downer.

 

What relationship?

 

Glad to hear it. It's one of the few happy things thats been in the news for a long time. They haven't named him yet evidently.

 

How about Brian ?

 

Its good news . Are you averse to good news and prefer reading of disasters/atrocities . ?

I tell you what, there are umpteen thousands of young mums who'll remind their their off spring - that theyb were born on the same day as this little Prince, whatever he turns out to be in future. - Hopefully , an example to his generation.

.. No point in being a miserable old sod - try looking on the bright side of life.


....

 

That's certainly true enough. Okay, it's newsworthy that they had a kid, but good grief, he ain't the second coming.

It reminds me of the Charles-Diana wedding. That was even worse. You had reports of seamstresses huddled by their TV's waiting for Diana to come out so they could immediately copy her wedding dress. Surreal.

I wonder if Prince Harry has visited them yet. Was he wearing anything?

I see what you did there!

 

LOL - I wonder if Granny shuffled him off to some place like Lashkar Gah just to be safe.

 

Why ?

and who are you referring to as "Granny" ?

 

HAHAHA!

"And you stay there until you're sober!"

"And get off my lawn!"

 

In equatorial west African nations, notwithstanding the official government, there are hundreds of tribes, districts, communities and settlements ruled by local kings where at least one black and noble, high prince is born each year. Nevertheless, the world of white media totally ignores these blessed events.

Conversely, whenever a white prince is born, the world goes ga-ga and the white media keeps the event on the front burner for several weeks. It is the epitome of international, unabashed racism.

 

The only relevant question is:

Is he an innie or an outie?

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have emerged from St Mary's Hospital in west London with their new baby son. Walking out to cheers from staff and well-wishers, Kate cradled her son and said it was "a special time". Prince William said they were "still working on a name". The couple then went back inside the private Lindo Wing and placed their son in a car seat. A few minutes later they came outside again and the duke drove his family home to Kensington Palace.

Isn't it fun when they're just "pretend" kings and we don't have to worry about them starting wars and cutting off troubadour's fingers?

Congratulations, though, to the most well paid Welfare family in the world.

 

It's just a little bit of cheerfulness and happiness in a world that is so fraught with sadness and misery, Charles. But that's OK, be dour and miserable if you want to.

Some people would say that it is silly to enjoy a nice ice cream banana split, with scoops of vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate ice cream, with nuts, a banana, and syrup because, after all, it's just going to be turned into **** anyway. Send us all a post from Zimbabwe, and I sincerely hope you find something to be happy about there....

 

My thoughts exactly, and good for the Brits to enjoy it. It is sad that Princess Diana could not participate in the joy, I know she would be so proud.

 

The birth of any child is "good news." That doesn't mean it's "newsworthy." When was the last time you celebrated the birth of a baby born in the Republic of Bophuthatswana?

The preoccupation with celebrities disgusts me, and is indicative of an unhealthy aversion to issues of real import.

 

I will never understand the fascination and preoccupation with the trivialities of the house of Windsor. And this is certainly a triviality.

 

Granny says, "Awww look, ya can see the baby wavin' his lil' fingers at ever'body...

WILLIAM, KATE, SHOW OFF THEIR ROYAL NEWBORN SON
Jul 23,`13 -- Prince William and his wife Kate presented their newborn son to the world for the first time Tuesday, drawing whoops and wild applause from well-wishers as they revealed the new face of the British monarchy - though not, yet, his name.

 

And many of us will never understand the fascination and preoccupation with the trivialities of celebrated "importance" associated with Black "history" and Black "culture" -- even to the point of the creation of degree plans for these rather silly diversions, along with the establishment of entire departments for them in major colleges and universities.... I'm using Black references now because a number of those posters who have wanted to write disparaging, snotty comments have suggested that similar occurrences in Africa are of great importance and warrant at least as much attention....

European history and culture, with all the warfare, struggle, and achievement made White advancement and White "culture" what it is today, and a great deal of that has occurred in Great Britain, beginning nearly 1,500 years ago! So, if a lot of White people seem enthralled with the birth of a new hereditary monarch in England, is that less understandable than the fascination that Black people have had with their own warfare, struggle, shameful legacy of selling each other into slavery, and other, frankly speaking, "stone-age" achievements...?

Be honest for a minute... what has African Black "culture" and "history" amounted to? Where is the philosophy, the architecture, the science, the technological advancement? Where is the African Black "Magna Carta"? Where is the standardization of weights and measures, the development of higher math, the expansion of medical technologies, including even something so elementary as the introduction of clean water and sewage facilities in Black African towns and villages? Oooh! I touched a nerve, didn't I...?!

So, don't be so hard on White people, whether those who are proud citizens of Great Britain, Americans, or any other variety, when we express happiness and joy at the continuance of one of our collective culture-sustaining institutions. The British monarchy no longer has the power it did hundreds of years ago, because our governmental forms evolved beyond that, but it is one of the few remaining ties we have to a country and a people who advanced civilization and took us forward, upward and away from the "stone age"....

 

The Brits got their royal baby, but we got Honey Boo-boo!

What on earth are you talking about? Why do you feel the need to turn this into a racial issue? I mean I could give, I think, a fairly solid defence of black culture but it just doesn't seem to me to be relevant. And the appeals you made to the preservation of white culture, as if it's somehow under serious threat, seem to me to be hysterical and absurd.

 

Did members of your family consider yr birth a triviality ?



"Life is too short to be taken seriously all the time . Pity you if you can't find something to laugh at.

Probably not I dare say but how is that analogous to the situation at hand? I would never be so crass and fatuous as to say that the actual parents and family members of the newborn ought to think of it as a triviality. I was clearly talking in the context of the mass hysteria and vicarious lifestyle nonsense to which we all of us are subjected every time one of the royals takes a good dump or cuts their toe-nails. The fawning over this infant is purely because of the house into which it was born. And it's a vulgar, abject triviality which implicitly accepts the idea that some are born of greater import than others, which is an idea I roundly reject and find revolting,.
