Order of the BULLSHIT Empire more like eh
I wouldnât take the badge off for decades. Americans wouldnât know what to do.
âWhatâs that thingy on your shirt.â
Me: âMy OBE, badge. Please refer to me as Sir NY from now onâ
"Ok whatever manâ.
I know quite a few people who have accepted over the years (tv: some of my distant acquaintances are doing well) and i fight so hard to not post shit on their social media posts about it.

Iâd love if you had one tbf. The rightful Lord of the realm. Unfortunately quite a lot of privileged wankers get them too and for some reason we still keep âempireâ in the title. Maybe you could launch a rebrand?
I can just see me now at all the fancy parties.
âYeah, no biggie, just me Connery, McCartney ya know. Not David Beckham though haha, WANKER!â
Do you get to keep the sword when you get knighted? That would be sweet.
I imagine theyâd make you fight to the death for it
Not a problem, live look at me chopping wood in the backyard.
do they do the ceremony where you get a medal from [main royal person]?
Iâd go that far and then make a scene by declining it right there
Be silly not to except it and see what you can get for it on Ebay.
Itâd give me and Lisa from off of Blackpink something to talk about on the off chance she isnât interested in ambient music or webcomic edits
I wouldnât want one but I saw the photos of Skin from Skunk Anansi getting hers and she made it look fun.*
*Iâve just relooked at them and I may have enjoyed the photoshop versions more than reality.
