Well, it's not like they need to carry their own luggage

[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 16 points 1 week ago

Or that they’re limited on luggage space.

[-] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 109 points 1 week ago

Their business is being on show. Not having a black outfit in case of a relative dying or some period of national mourning would be a case of you-had-one-job.

The royal family also travels with a spare sex slave in case the current one dies.

Prince Andrew keeps two at his summer cottage chained up just incase they try to run away again.

[-] DaMonsterKnees@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

Idk man, then they age. Wouldn't he keep them on a rotational basis, considering, you know, the linear nature of time, at least to our consciousness?

[-] curbstickle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago

I believe the answer there is - two living at any given time.

[-] gnutrino@programming.dev 23 points 1 week ago

Common misconception, they don't actually take their sex slaves with them, they acquire new ones at their destination.

[-] Burninator05@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

That just makes good financial sense and keeps things spicy.

[-] And009@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 week ago

It's always in storage, in islands all over.

[-] HowAbt2morrow@futurology.today 5 points 1 week ago

Redundancy is so important that they keep a spare spare sex slave and assorted collection of anal beads.

[-] RejZoR@lemmy.ml 27 points 1 week ago

Trump clearly doesn't, he came to Pope's funeral in blue suite...

[-] Bieren@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

To be fair, he probably only has one suit that fits his fat ass. Not to mention the others are covered in bronzer stains.

We're not allowed to call him that anymore. He went by "the Artist" until his death. Man, fuck Warner Bros.

What where we talking about?

[-] srecko@lemm.ee 5 points 1 week ago

I believe he started using Prince again since the start of new millenium

[-] dogslayeggs@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Nah, he went back to calling himself Prince in 2000.

[-] starlinguk@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

Michelle Obama says she does as well. I suppose a lot of people in the public eye do.

[-] jagged_circle@feddit.nl 11 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I always travel with black clothes because...fuck the State.

We are not the same.

[-] ramble81@lemm.ee 10 points 1 week ago

Quickest way to get Trump in a black suit is to start calling him “poor” and note that he doesn’t have a big enough entourage or money to also have a black suit. Reverse psychology works well on him and comparing him to others.

[-] toofpic@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Love hearing facts about the rich!

[-] jagged_circle@feddit.nl 2 points 1 week ago

/s or downvotes

[-] jagged_circle@feddit.nl 3 points 1 week ago

Took me too long to reize that a "black outfit" isnt a bunch of people with black skin.

I wasn't sure how some Africans would be necessary in the subsequent PR campaign following a death

[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago

How frequently are they on holiday?

[-] jagged_circle@feddit.nl 7 points 1 week ago

I think it rounds up to about 100% of the time

[-] DandomRude@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

A blue one is also totally suitable for a funeral, just ask Donnie Orangeutan, he knows all about style and dignity. /s

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

I'll start doing that too.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
