The Queen must go. In the name of all that is egalitarian and true, there ought to be a commander-in-chief ruling the plebs with love and force. I think I would be up to the job.

Well, all right. As long as it doesn't float over and start hanging out with that Iceland kid. And it's not to go running off over to the Canaries, either!

Fortunately for all of you, Skyweir and I have dAN trapped in an msn triangle. Of doom. The world is safe for now, but don't do it again :x ;)

Vote me as the next Royal Family. That's right - King Ur-Vile. I promise a far greater United Kingdom. First, I will rid the Tower of London of it's Ravens. Second, rid KW of all Revans. Third, delete this post.
