    Imagine if this was real. If I was British, I’d probably be subhuman be thinking: “I’m sorry for the family, but the Royal Family was never going to mourn my family’s death, so let me play.”

      Is this confirmed not real? I remember seeing something a while back about Nintendo partnering with museums to have special 3DS’s that function as audio/visual guides. This could be total BS, but it seems at least plausible to me that a museum could have done something like this during the national mourning period.

        What? Block museum visitors from using the dedicated hardware for their museum visit? Why on Earth would they do that?

        That was a joke. I don’t actually believe any human is below other humans. Well, except certain types of criminals like child molesters, and people who torture other living creatures, human or animal, and other similar horrendous acts. Then yes, I believe those creatures are subhuman.

        Brits and Europeans make jokes at the expense of Americans all the time, its only fair if Americans can make jokes at the expense of Brits and Europeans too. It’s merely harmless banter.

          That’s where the disconnect comes in, they’re not joking.
