Imagine that. Current events are popular topics of conversation.
I don't think Trump really wants to be president.... I just think he likes his name being heard on the evening news.... constantly.
You crazy guys. What's the tradition called when a representative from the monarch shows up to Parliament(?) and a guy slams the door to keep them out?
**I saw something about this as a kid my facts could be wrong or off a bit**
Black Rod and the State opening of Parliament?

My only disappointment is Black Rod doesn't speak in the third person. 🙂

I would LOVE to see Trump vs Hilary.
It would be a hilarious matchup of chauvinism vs a powerful political woman.
That's it thanks, its an awesome tradition. I love how where he knocks on the door is worn from years of knocking I assume.
I even love how he's not named.
I think that The House was destroyed by German bombing in WWII, the doors from the 50s I think.
For some reason I really want to see Trump nominated and become president. I think the Hilarity of it is worth it. Another Clinton/Bush is just gonna be meh. I want to be entertained.
The Chrome extension that puts quotes in between his first and last name make these threads worth it.
Still cool 60+ years of knocking
Do want!!
I'll go back to Chrome from FF for it as well!

Well the tradition goes back about 500 years I think.
The best (but probably not the weirdest) tradition is that you can just turn up and get to see your MP when he's there.
The other best one is the free snuff.
I'm still waiting for, "This whole thing has been a prank. The most epic prank of all time. I'm awesome. Of course I don't believe a lot of those things I said. I just wanted to show people how sick some of the people in the Republican Party are to support such positions as torture and murdering civilians because of their religion. I've single-handedly imploded the Republican Party, because I'm awesome. So, all the rest of you need to acknowledge how awesome I am for doing this to help you - the majority of people who would not support me on the fake platform I was running on."
Any day now. I keep telling myself, any day now, he's going to make that announcement.
