I mean, is it okay to care about the NFL draft? I see a LOT of talk about that.
Will it be okay to care about the Superbowl in 2012? Was it okay to care about it a few months ago? I didn't see anyone complaining about that?
OP, we get it. You don't care about silly, fluffy, girly wedding things making the news. Some people do. It's fun, it's upbeat. Much like all the stupid sports crap that's crammed down my throat daily.
My lovely wife is British. Even though she's now a U.S. citizen, she gives a crap about the Ryal Wedding.
There's nothing like the British, for their resiliency, history, and tradition. Your wife should be very proud of her heritage. I think William and Kate will close an unfortunate chapter for the Windsors and do Britain proud.
By the way, when we gals rehashed the wedding at work (we ALL got up early to watch it) we all agreed that Prince Harry and Kate's sister Pippa would make a hot couple! We all planned on coming to work wearing hats Friday in commemoration of the event (but we didn't). Most of us didn't have anything suitable.
could somone please explain why anyone in America cares about the royal wedding??? I mean, the death tolls down south are in the hundreds and climbing, gas prices are on track to hit a record high, Donald trump wont shut up about obamas birth certificate, we are in a reccession nearly as bad as the Depression, unemployment rates are still up, and yet, all I hear on American media is about the modern fairy tale that is the royal wedding. People even had PARTIES!!! Can you beleive this?????? Why??????
Hi there. I'm from the UK and considering moving to the states. We all have our fair share of things to be depressed and worried about, and your are right to be concerned about the above. We are also in the midst of a recession.
But you can also take a bit of time out in your life to celebrate and be happy too, even if its a bit of fantasy/escapism. The royal family are about as far removed from me as they are from you, but I enjoyed watching them and am glad its a marriage forged from love this time and I hope they make it.
It was done well. Everything went off with military precision. Things happened exactly when they were supposed to. But what many will remember was that clergyman doing cartwheels when he thought nobody was looking. Billions of people saw that, preserved for posterity.
It's not like anyone looked to that as some major news source, it was more for the tradition and beauty of the whole thing. It was a diversion from daily trials.
Just like the Superbowl is for a lot of people. It doesn't really affect anyone, just a diversion.
Two spoiled brats who are rich and famous because their parents are rich and famous got married. How are thery any different than Kim Kardashian or Paris Hilton? I'm glad it's over because soon we'll stop hearing about it.

I think William has a mission---not a day goes by that he doesn't think about his Mother, the People's Princess. Change---it is a process in our global community.

Oh--I think it was more than that. Some things can't be discussed openly, at the moment at least.
