The Queen's Arms

Post by Gob »

Villagers have expressed their outrage after a pub unveiled its new sign, portraying the Queen in a rather irreverent light.

The Spitting Image-style cartoon outside the newly revamped Queen's Arms Hotel in Acomb, Northumberland, shows Her Royal Highness as a burly figure with a tattoo bearing the name 'Phil' on her huge forearms.

A grinning Queen Elizabeth sports a a chain and black muscle-vest as she stands with her arms folded outside Buckingham Palace.
“If you trust in yourself, and believe in your dreams, and follow your star. . . you'll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy.”

It is certainly no worse than calling the Queen the Queen. After all, "burly figure with a tattoo" is nowhere near as bad as "inbred symbol of tyranny" or "parasite whose assets should be returned to their rightful owners". She should be grateful that the depiction of her is a falsehood rather than the infinitely more disgusting truth.
Reason is valuable only when it performs against the wordless physical background of the universe.
