    Someone at the gym just said “It’s almost like there’s a curse on the royal family, what did they ever do to anyone?”

    I’m biting my tongue, drawing blood

      Me thinks t’was a joke, no?

      It’s pretty funny that despite all the horrible things British royalty has done to people over the centuries, basically all of their suffering is self inflicted, because as it turns out, it’s actually incredibly uncommon for people to be intentionally horrible to others, even those who deserve it. The people doing horrible things to British royalty are the same people doing horrible things via British royalty.

      Edit: I have no idea if this specific cancer is due to inbreeding though, or if this specific royal deserves it.
