Purely because my love for Banana Milk is just that big...

Also, I like writing heaps of stuff

The Royal Wedding...

So.... The Royal Wedding. Who's excited?
I mean, congratulations to them. I'm happy they're happy.
I'm happy they love each other.
I'm happy they're getting married.
Hope they have a great life together.

However... there are numerous things that annoy me about this wedding.
One is the amount of coverage it's gotten.
Cool, they're getting married. Awesome.
I'll continue living life now.
I'm bemused as to how people can care so much about it... I mean, it's their lives.
How about we let them live it?

Probably the main thing that annoys me about it though... is the cost.
80 Million. 80 Million dollars. That's like, 50 times more than I'll earn in my life.
Is that cost really necessary for one single wedding?
It's great they love each other and stuff, but the money could be used so much more beneficially elsewhere.

What about the kids, starving and slaving away in Third World Countries?
What about those people who'll never ever get to live a comfortable life?
Those who don't know what a luxury is. Those who don't know what rest is.
What do they get?
This single 80 Million dollar wedding... the money could be used elsewhere.
It could end poverty in so many places. It could give decent lives to so many.
Those who can't eat regularly, if at all.
Those who are forced into the sex trade to live.
Those who are forced into slavery.
Those who are beaten, whipped, violated... the money could help those people so much.
And yet, it's spent on flowers, and a ridiculously overhyped, overrated one day event.
It makes me sick.
