Can't believe Rizzo and Wanka lied to me lads. 'Giving chai' is when you give gifts and donations in a multiple of 18, which is terrible for Jeremy Corbyn.

Calico Heart posted:Would the queen dying mean a surge in Tory votes? Ugh, probably No need to reprint money (or stamps for that matter) - George VI coins were still a pretty common sight in change until very recently, and the relatively short half-life of banknotes (about a year, IIRC) means they'll not really be replaced any quicker if they're recalled.

Funnier option would be that the queen has literally just been found dead, unexpectedly and completely separate to the rumours, and now they have no loving idea what to do.

UKIP (remember them?) leader on Sky News at the moment unable to name any of the seats they're standing in, and claiming that the Brexit Party are too new for people to vote for while UKIP have been around forever. Now she's literally reading from a printout of their manifesto, and has been completely baffled by Adam Boulton pointing out that their immigration policy is identical to current Government policy. e: Oh my god this is absolutely amazing, the "I don't know anything about politics but here are all my opinions" energy is strong. ee: On Tommy Robinson - "his association with other racist parties... erm, other parties that are racist, UKIP isn't racist" This is the greatest bit of comedy in television history. goddamnedtwisto fucked around with this message at 10:47 on Dec 2, 2019 |

Did anything interesting or weird happen last night not including the Queen death hoax? Could it have been used as a diversion? Just seems really weird such a tremendous rumour had SO much attention with no one outright denying it.

Kill All Cops posted:ESTA checks are done online and take like maybe 30 mins or so? A friend did some work in Libya I think it was on an EU-funded project and so the online ESTA check didn't work. He had to go to the US Embassy in London to be interviewed to get a visa for a week's holiday and when he arrived, his wife's baggage came out on the carousel, but his case didn't. It was the only missing case. It was the 5th day of the holiday before it turned up and his case had been thoroughly rifled.

You can all but guarantee that a small subset of conspiracy wingnuts now believes that not only is the Queen dead, but has been replaced with a lookalike. Can't wait for #gibbogate to start trending

Thank you both. The viral content part and meme ability makes sense, it was more the fact that I was surprised there were no denials from anyone. Unless they feel this kind of thing is so beneath them as to not bother getting involved.

Buckingham Palace loathe to comment on things like this because if they do it for every little rumour then it opens the floodgates to commenting on other things. "No, Liz isn't dead, pay no attention to the viral dick pic WhatsApp" is hardly the kind of press release they want to dignify the rumour with.
