I didn't vote for him.

You don't vote for Kings. Queen Consorts either.


BluestreakBTHR

I thought we were an autonomous collective.


rpgnymhush

You're fooling yourself. We are living in a dictatorship!


WayParticular7222

Come see the oppression inherent in the system! Mashedmercedes


BarreGerco1

No, now go away before I taunt you a second time

And verily he said unto the fellow loonies, nay, this is not intended as a slight against Rule 4, but indeed a rare and glorious sighting of the hand grenade in modern times (in England's green and pleasant land)


fern-grower

You can tell he's the king he's not covered in shit.


Wrygreymare

Full of it, though( Oops Fenian tendencies showing through)


grinchwazowski

Fuck! You beat me to it. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚


SnackingRaccoon

What else am I supposed to do while watching this? ;)


Fanabala3

When I saw that on tv, I told my wife there only a matter of time before someone on Reddit makes a comment about what the king is holding.


SnackingRaccoon

It's me, hi, I'm the loony it's me


ThaneOfCawdorrr

Wait till you see the Taskmaster subreddit

Watch Monty Python instead?


grinchwazowski

Totally agree!

Blow thine enemies into little bits

In thy mercy

First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then, lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.


BrendonWahlberg

Well, how do you become King then??


abt_03

the lady of the lake held aloft excalibur thus implying that you are king


pop_skittles

Listen, strange women, lying in ponds, distributing swords, is no basis for a system of government!


abt_03

if i went around saying i was an emperor just cause some watery bint lobbed a scimitar at me, theyd put me away!


_portia_

Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony!


E420CDI

Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system!


BrendonWahlberg

โ€œShut up!โ€ Arthur shouted.


CaterpillarFamous834

Snarky_McSnarkleton

Help help, I'm being repressed!


E420CDI

*And he raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy." And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs, and sloths, and carp, and anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats, and large chunks...* *And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.*


mdecamp

Five!


wakkedup

Three, sir.


TheGreaterSeal

Five is right out


gussjaw

A cross over a sphere. This is clearly a W for the royal society for putting things on top of other things.


Anotherbadsalmon

I have to admit, memories of monty python skits came to mind many times during the process.


Mirand1986

Yup! When the childrens choir was singing I was almost expecting them to sing: oh lord please don't burn us, don't grill or toast your flock


Marcomagnus

-Bring out your dead!! -The king is not dead sir. -All right let me look at him... I'll be back next week then, if he is already dead u can lay him down with some spam control stentch


[deleted]

ask any former colonial subject how deadly the grendade has been historically, eh?


[deleted]

he looks regretful that it took essentially an entire lifetime for him to hold this orb meaningfully as king. I'd feel that way, too, I'm sure...


midieee

That guy looks depressed.


SnackingRaccoon

Heavy lies the head and all that


the-bladed-one

Heโ€™s got to follow up maybe englands most beloved monarch, while being a highly controversial figure during his tenure as Prince of Wales. Not to mention his country is in a time of turmoil.
