Default Queen Elizabeth II

Has been put under "Medical Supervision" and all members of the Royal Family are currently with her or on the way.

She has been the Queen since June 2nd, 1953... I know many on this board and in this country could care less about the Royal Family, but I've always been fascinated by them.

I wish her well, but this news doesn't sound very positive 😢

Saw a crazy stat today, she has been Queen of England for over a quarter of the time that the United States has existed.

Why is that crazy? My kids could do this math

The United States isn’t that old. Everyone knows this. My Grandpa has been alive 42% of the time the US has existed

Crazy I guess

At least you didn't take it too seriously.

Rest in Peace Queen Elizabeth

Get ready for a timeline jump, boys.

The next one has to be better than this post-Harambe one, right?

RIP Elizabeth.

She was a nice lady.

Rich, white lady born into royalty.

But nice.

LOL, Jesus, I guess you never take a break from being you.

She was a leader (or figurehead, whatever) for almost 70 years. I thought it was interesting given than we change figureheads every 8 years or less.

If you don't find it interesting, my sincere apologies.

RIP Queen Elizabeth II. I took this photo of her at the Highland Games in Braemer, Scotland in 1996 when I was in the Navy stationed in Scotland.

I'll jump in and say that's super interesting before someone inevitably gives you grief for whatever reason.

Weird to say King.

He’ll probably die in a couple years.

King whatever the next kid is.

William.

I know some in England want Charles to step down so William can be King. But most of that is from the people that hate him still because of Diana even though he never wanted to marry her and was a forced marriage between the two.
