@Kinnison what's the worst that could happen?
@DavidKMresists @Kinnison The Normans will invade. Oh, wait, they did. In 1066. 😂
@Kinnison Cue the Monty Python gags.
It's as good a power transfer method as many, and better than some.
Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
Help! Help! I'm being repressed!
Ooh, what a giveaway! Did you hear that? Did you hear that, eh? That’s what I’m on about! Did you see him repressing me? You saw it, didn’t you?
THERE IS A NEW KING!
"A corroded sword pulled from an English river by a magnet fisher is a Viking weapon dating to between A.D. 850 and 975, experts have confirmed."
