Well here it is. The blog you knew was coming because it's Friday soon but not a normal Friday, No. One where the whole world cares about two strangers they don't know getting married. They then film it too show all over the world and call it the greatest event in the world and say "look love isn't dead" as they shove a Royal Wedding Flag kit in your face and say "That'll be £19.99". Yes it's the Royal Wedding 2011 this year in HD and pointlessness is at an all time high as we are all told that it's the most magical event ever. My main problem with it is that since it was announced the News world has been happy to pour out absolute shit about the couple until you feel like you know more about the event than even they do. Much like the world cup, the build up to the event is unimaginable and once it happens lasts a few seconds and all the excitement is over and everyone is left feeling slightly empty like a milk float at 1pm. What ring will she wear, what dress, shoes, whose coming, why someone isn't going, what time is it, how many squirrels will be allowed in, on a scale of one to ten how happy will they be afterwards and so on. But all this dribble just for a 30 minute bullshit of "Yes I still want to be with this person I've been with for the last few years" then it's all over and the 8'000 different camera crews can fight too the death to get a good shot of the couple walking outside in the rain. One thing that is annoying the hell out of me is that we are being told that it's the biggest Wedding of the year but I'm pretty sure if anyone who reads this (the small amount that is one person) who is getting married that they feel their day is the biggest Wedding in their eyes. So maybe they should stop shoving it into our faces about what we think is great and what we think is not.
My main anger at the whole thing is marriage itself. Unless you are a religious person and therefore want to get married under your God then getting married is pointless as it makes no difference to the relationship that your in other than stating too strangers you are taken which doesn't matter anyway as people still have affairs and 1 in 3 marriages end in divorce. You basically take a relationship you have been in for the past 5 years and change NOTHING about it. People always say that then you become more committed but are you not committed when your with the person in the first place. Can you cheat away like a whore but as soon as the golden ring of justice is placed upon your finger you have to cut off all ties? No, it's stupid and what makes the Royal Wedding more stupid is that people get married all the time that you don't know so why care about these two. Is it because they are Royal's? Most likely, but they will never actually have any real power as that's why we vote and have a government otherwise go back to the 15th century and be ruled by a King or Queen. Plus it's costing us, the tax payer, to fund this event. I mean they could pay for it themselves but they don't have jobs. Anyway I'll stop now before i explode with pure anger and my big bloody head is left dripping off my iMac.
As for pointless stories, The Sun has (as always) become king of the useless with it's exclusive "Kate's naked wedding fear" as this is an important story that we all must know otherwise how will we coupe with the mundane day to day of our lives if we didn't know that Kate thinks she will be naked during the wedding and thus helping to make the average Sun reader interested. Even using pictures of half naked woman to help get across the idea of what a naked woman might look like just to help the story reach it's audience. But then you switch on ITV News and they have a story where a school did a mock up wedding where two kids got married. Now i don't know why this is News or if they are actually married but, they better be as I've seen it on the TV and thus it must be true. So if they aren't married then ITV has lied and it is all a big sham and we shall riot in the streets until there love is taken seriously! But the craziest thing i have seen other than the thousand of people camping since Monday in order to get a place in the street to see it and the ridiculous amount of Mugs and plates with the couples face on, is the betting you can do. Now i work in a betting shop and i looked up what you could bet on. My oh my, it is beyond sad that people would actually care this much about an event that doesn't mean A thing to anyone that they would bet on it, other than the Royal Family themselves who could make a few extra quid on the side. So here are my Top Ten Bet's you can place on the wedding:
10: 50/1 - An Objection Made during the service
09: 33/1 - Gold (Colour of Queens hat)
08: 38/1 - Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven (First Dance)
07: 2/5 - Less than 30 million (views on both BBC/ITV)
06: 6/1 - Lilly Allen to get last minute invite
05: 100/1 - The Archbishop to request a toilet break during the wedding
04: 200/1 - Michael Barrymore (First celebrity to be shown at wedding)
03: 10/1 - Prince Philip to be seen asleep during service
02: 100/1 - Chas & Dave (Which couple will be seen first)
01: 50/1 - "They were on a break" (What will Huw Edwards say first)
Now get betting folks. For this quick day will help to blind you from the wars and lack of cash and other such things that are going on. Send angry tweets to @Pippy_Pipatron
When on a day to day basis i rant and rave at the world and most people tell me to shut up or just pay for the drink and go away I've decided to use this web thingy to sprawl my hate and what i call logic
