And believe it or not, it’s not in Rolls.

My interest in the Royal Wedding™ is limited, so of course I wanted a car or cooking angle. Elizabeth II rides around in a heavily-modified Bentley, the donor chassis probably related to a Bentley Arnage. HRH likes a royal purple exterior and cloth seats, so that’s what the car has. Note also the high roofline and large windows – the Queen is an expensive indulgence, so the Brits should be able to see her as she passes by.  More on the car here.

I looked in the dictionary for for the definition of “privileged, clueless, douchebag” and found the following picture:

As you no doubt know by now, whether or not you care to, HRH The Crown Grandprince is also Duke of Cambridge, Earl of Strathearn, and — no, really — Baron Carrickfergus, titles bestowed upon His Royal Male Pattern Baldness by HM The Corgi Wrangler, and scandalously proving that she’s been watching more Monty Python than Buckingham Palace has let on.

Perhaps it’s one of those state secrets only Prime Ministers are told upon assuming office. Like the existence of witches.

We of course were immediately consumed by a desire to learn more about the barony, since we don’t know which sketch it’s derived from. (“Baron Spamshire” would have been too obvious, and we’re sure HM dismissed it the moment Prince Philip suggested it.)

We don’t know how she did it, but Oklahoma crazy lady firebrand Sally Kern actually crossed a line:

“I want to humbly apologize for my statements last night about African-Americans and women,” Kern, R-Oklahoma City, said in a statement. “I believe that our government should not provide preference based on race or gender. I misspoke while trying to convey this point last night during debate.”

Heavens! Whatever could Sally Kern say that would make Sally Kern apologize?

The Management apologizes for stacking up Donald Trump posts, but The Management hasn’t seen such glee on the Interwebs since Sarah Palin was considered a serious presidential candidate.

America’s Potty Mouth is 64, which means America’s Potty Mouth is old enough to face The Ultimate Boomer Question:

When asked if he avoided the draft during the Vietnam War, Trump says he got lucky because, although he had a high draft number, his number was not called.

Ah, the good old days, checking the newspaper every year after Lady Bird drew the Doomed Birthdays from the hopper. Although maybe it wasn’t Lady Bird. Memory fades. And besides, the Draft was long gone when we turned draft-age anyway.

But back to Mr. Lucky. Seems there was another factor keeping him out of the jungle:

Despite Donald Trump’s claim this week that he avoided serving in the Vietnam War solely due to a high draft number, Selective Service records show that the purported presidential aspirant actually received a series of student deferments while in college and then topped those off with a medical deferment after graduation that helped spare him from fighting for his country, The Smoking Gun has learned.

Well! We certainly can’t blame him for using all the options available. But then, we’re not among his Birther fanbase.

On Iraq:

We build a school, we build a road, they blow up the school, we build another school, we build another road they blow them up, we build again, in the meantime we can’t get a fucking school in Brooklyn.

On oil:

We have nobody in Washington that sits back and says, you’re not going to raise that fucking price.

On Chinese imports:

Listen you motherfuckers, we’re going to tax you 25 percent.

If he keeps this shit up, we may have no fucking choice but to fucking endorse him.

From the Department of No Good Deed Goes Unpunished:

After President Obama declared much of the South a disaster zone after tornadoes killed close to 300 people, Texas Gov. Good Hair Perry stamped his foot, demanded federal assistance for parts of Texas fighting wildfires and wailed, “Why are you taking care of Alabama? Why are you taking care of other states and for some reason or another, the letter didn’t get lost in the mail.”

Guess it’s not just the big guy in the sky who’s ignoring little Ricky.
