Use majestic plural!
Posted by: Maki | September 01, 2011 at 12:19 AM
Excellent, one suggestion
Should be "we are not amused".

It's _your_ majesty...
BTW: Thanks for the great stuff!

Should be "Your Majesty" when addressing royalty.

Please, do kindly get the vernacular correct. It is: "One is not amused".
One is not amused!
;-)
Keep up the great comics.

Well, she has every right not to be amused. The correct address in this case is "Your majesty".
Posted by: Cyrus McDugan | September 01, 2011 at 09:43 AM
Splendid! But shouldn't it be "Your Majesty" instead of "Her Majesty"?
Posted by: pera | September 01, 2011 at 10:54 AM
Your Majesty,... not Her

I think it would be more correct to say:
"Your majesty" and "We are not amused" (Pluralis majestatis)
Thanks for all the fun, our office walls wouldn't be the same without G&P!

right before the tea-time from 3 to 4pm - hehe
I'm amused :-)
Posted by: Wolf | September 01, 2011 at 03:21 PM
I'd have expected "Your Majesty" and "We are not amused".
