The Royal Wedding

Isn’t it funny how the whole world seems to be excited about William and Kate? Not only are they from a different country, but also a different continent. What is the big hoopla, people? Speaking of Brits, I find it highly irritating that the masses think it’s such a refined accent, that TV and radio shows choose British commentators over Americans. Why?! These are American shows! Geico commercials have British speakers, yet Geico is an American-based company that had its first headquarters in Chevy Chase, MD. We hire Brits over Americans and that seems to be ok, but as soon as someone with a Latino accent gets hired over an American, then they’re taking jobs away from the American people! It’s such flawed thinking. Brits have cute accents, but Asian or Latino accents are vulgar. It’s so racist. I don’t like accents of any kind so I don’t have a preference either way.

One thing I do like about the royal wedding is the date, April 29th, which is the feast of Saint Catherine of Siena who Kate was named after. My mother named me after the very same saint.
