Queen Elizabeth's birthday party

[Sisaruus]

I'm watching the news. Why is Queen Elizabeth carrying her purse? Doesn't she have people to do that for her?

1. a special birthday message to the queen!

2. I've heard rumors that she uses the purse to signal her staff

Switching it to the other arm indicates, "help, get me out of here! This guy just won't stop talking!".

Another possibility is that it contains treats for her pet corgis.

4. I hear she barely keeps any money in it anyway!

Just enough for condoms and slurpees

6. Oh boy would that be interesting

to witness the UK transition to a republic w/o a monarchy.

Has anyone ever tried to break into the tower and release/steal the ravens? :)
