    Things are already fucking terrible enough in America.

    If we have to accept Ed Sheeran, England should be required to adopt Logan/Jake Paul.

      Ed sheeran seems like not an asshole, especially in proportion to his influence and presumably wealth.

      His singing doesn’t factor into it IMO.

          The UK is essentially just a client state of the US and is doing everything that the US is doing, just in a more comically incompetent manner. In fact the UK is worse in many ways, throwing anyone in jail who voices discontent with the genocide of the Palestinians.

        I don’t know much about where he stands as a contribution to overall society, however… I have; and I mean this seriously… heard his terrible music

            It’s not hard to get laid, contrary to popular belief. Most people love sex.

            Actually, if you hadn’t of been playing Ed Sheeran, multiple people would’ve joined in.

            his [music’s] gotten me laid. Can’t be that bad

            We’ll let you judge the amount of help you feel you’d need ;-)

            Ed Sheeran apparently holds the record for

            • longest climb to #1 (19 weeks)
            • longest top-100 chart time (33 weeks)
            • only artist to have multiple songs exceed 10 weeks at #1 (whither TSwift?)

            I can’t say whether his music is good, but I can say it appears others like his tunes a lot, for sexy time or not.

            Imagine a donkey that wanted to sing, then put that voice to the music of a lonely orphan who just found out that candy exists.

        Well, no. He just rips off other artists and markets it well to the non-thinking crowd.

        That’s just… like, your opinion.

        Define “reasonable”

        It’s like if Crazy Town or Chumbawumba were allowed to stay longer than the party…

        “Yo Ed, cool song last nite mate. So many panties everywhere. Want breakfast? Cool, fuck off.”

            You can’t blame the guy for trying to offload the Paul brothers, but you’re right, that ain’t a fair trade.

            Yeah, he can’t sing and Logan/Jake (they share a taint) are fuckhats.

            Luckily for us, we aren’t them & if I knew for a fact that there was a God/god I would thank them everyday that we aren’t them!

      Prince Harry genuinely does not believe he is a ginger. I saw some interview he gave a few weeks ago where he said he isnt ginger and that his hair is “auburn”.

      Auburn of course being a shade of red, meaning he has red hair. But still not a ginger, somehow

          this is from wiki:

          a statement also made by Diana’s royal protection officer, Inspector Ken Wharfe. Wharfe reiterated this in an interview in 2016,[26] and in his memoir Diana: Closely Guarded Secret published in 2002 (and reissued in 2017) in which he says “A simple comparison of dates proves it is impossible for Hewitt to be Harry’s father. … Harry was born on September 15, 1984, which means he was conceived around Christmas 1983, when his brother, William, was 18 months old. Diana did not meet James Hewitt until the summer of 1986.”

          Diana attributed Harry’s red hair colouration to her side of the family, calling him her “little Spencer”.

          It would make sense for a reason the king has to remind everyone that Harry is not a working royal though lol

        Per capita, having a king in 2026 is 1/8th as bad as having a Donald Trump. So take that into consideration…

      Well… technically IQ is statistically adjusted to be centered on 100 with a standard deviation of 15 so the average IQ would go from 100 to 100 in both places.
