Good on you. You should post pictures of the moment after you cut off your nose to spite your face.
A). It was for laughs;
B). If cutting off my nose created enough laughs to border on hysterical, I might consider it;
C). Whether I buy her overpriced crap or the UK's overpriced crap, they are both not Americans. Remember- she became a UK citizen when she married Prince Hypocrite;
D). I don't like her sense of entitlement, greed, or haughtiness.

So yes - I would rather spend a few bucks to see if maybe the very institution who respects loyalty and hard work might top her numbers. She is quick to try to throw things in the monarchy's face, it would be entertaining to have it (sales numbers) bounce back and pop her in her own nose.

I'm no Anglophile, but if you've seen any early seasons of The Crown or any documentary of the royal family, QEII truly did sacrifice her existence (although a rather padded one) and nearly every hour of every day to her citizens. I admire that.
