A couple months back, President Obama caught all kinds of flak for giving England’s Queen Elizabeth an iPod as a gift; apparently, some people thought an iPod wasn’t befitting of Her Royal Highness.
If you ask us, that old lady is lucky she got anything. She’s just some random person who happened to be born into the right family and as a result gets millions of dollars, a castle filled with servants, and presents from our super-cool elected President.
Well, nevertheless, people are still giving her gifts as though she was someone who mattered, like Susan Boyle or something.
And games publisher THQ has just one-upped Obama by giving Queen Elizabeth something that had previously only been reserved for the likes of Paris Hilton:
A gold-plated Nintendo Wii.
Why in the world was something this tacky-but-ironically-awesome wasted on an old, spoiled lady who won’t even play it? Why doesn’t anyone ever send us a golden Wii? We’d promote the crap out of THQ’s lame BIG Family Games even if all they gave us was a Wii coated in glitter and Spam. We’ve worked harder today than the Queen has in her entire pampered life.
Oh well, she can keep her stupid gold Wii. She’ll never have what we’ve got here in America: economic devastation and video game consoles made of plastic.
