Apparently I'm expected to do this one, being English and all, but apparently the Queen of Great Britain is a big fan of the Nintendo Wii, getting hooked on the white funbox when she saw Prince William playing a game. Just writing about the Royal Family makes me feel like a bloody tabloid paper. Turn to page 23 for candid pics of Billy Piper's new beach boyfriend and to see us painting the idiot parents of Madeline Mccann as poor innocent victims of the EVIL Portugese police!
"When she saw William playing a game after lunch at Sandringham she thought the Nintendo looked tremendous fun and begged to join in," a source is said to have reported, probably in a posh voice. "She played a simple ten-pin bowling game and by all accounts was a natural. It was hilarious. William was in fits of laughter. He was enormously impressed at having such a cool gran." A cool gran? I thought everybody's gran had played on the thing by now.
Wii fan or not, this does little to make me back down from my theory that we need to burn down Buckingham Palace and banish those privileged inbreds back to Germany where they came from.

Base neglect, at the very least, had something to fucking do with it.
she's a little dead girl, like the one in F.E.A.R.
->What!? No destruction of monarchies...this is bs...why Sterling Why?
Wellington, was reported to have played Call of Duty 3 just before the Battle of Waterloo. Napoleon, unfortunately, only owned a PS2.
I feel like going and shaking her hand for being such a pioneer.
We mean it maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan
or something just as hideous, such as twilight princess.
ZING.
Made me feel all patriotic.
Let's hope not.
Wow.
I'd love the good ol' Queenie in a game of Super Smash Bros Brawl.
"One is going to kick some Royal arse on this bad boy!"
C'mon Jim, let's do this right.
I mean, they decided to leave her AND her younger siblings alone in a hotel room while they sit down for a nice dinner alone, TURNING DOWN THE OFFER OF FREE CHILD SUPERVISION PROVIDED BY THE RESORT!
Not to mention they don't honestly seem to give a shit about all of this. When the mother released her plea to the captors, she barely seemed to have any emotions while praying for her daughter back, and had to read the whole thing off of a prompter. The worst part is that while they were touring the world gathering support for the search, they decided to start a blog. What did they write about in this blog? They wrote about how much they were enjoying sightseeing and "jogging to famous monuments" in the different locations on their tour.
Nintendo's plot to take over the world is working.
I'd love for these douchenozzles to be stripped of their social status. I can see it now: Harry working at a McDonald's and the queen in a retirement home (where, with any luck, they'll get their Wii jacked).
Fuck them.
What the HELL does that have to do with the QWiiN?
Although I agree sincerely, the McCann's are dicks.
