Netflix Harry & Meghan trailer is out

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

Him, their trash trolls here... all their supporters so oddly personalize it. Doesn't it occur to him, for example, that when he's off no use he'll be dispatched? And then he'll have to write a tell all on her and then, after that, he's back to being nothing and no one?

Harry got what he deserved in Meghan. Not to mention she appeared to be the woman he was looking for all his life.

Face it, the eligible girls in the aristocracy were on to him. They knew him as a moody mental case, and knew how difficult life with him would be as a result. So it's not as if he had his pick of well adjusted wealthy women from the top tier of British society longing to marry him. Matter of fact, that was probably yet another one of the things he resented so bitterly: that after spending a little time with him, none of the aristocratic girls were seriously interested in marrying him.

Meghan wants to be the next Gwyneth Paltrow. Do I blame her? No. She is an actress. She wants fame and fortune.

There is nothing for Harry to do, except find real, tangible employment. He has neither the background nor the education for gainful employment. So he cashes in on his family, his upbringing, and his grievances.

Were they subject to racist abuse and real threats? Yes. Read the interview with the retiring Metropolitan or ex counter-terror chief for the truth in that.

Are they grifters? Yes. They're both cashing in on their titles. More than anything else, that is what turns people off about these two.

Weren't there reports just after The Queen's funeral that H&M were begging Netflix for re-editing or re-shoots and to delay the timing. You have to wonder what happened at the funeral to cause them to panic like that. Likely some kind of conversation with KCIII or his courtiers to the effect of "any more public negativity from you and you are cut off and OUT".

And then Meg's distancing comment about Liz Garbus being the director "it's not being told the way I would have told it". Blah blah.

I wonder if H&M or Netflix chose yesterday as the launch date for the trailer. Man, someday I hope all the behind the scenes stories are released. That's the bit that is really interesting to me. This documentary just looks like BS Hallmark channel junk food.

It sort of doesn't matter what happens to them from here on out. It's over for them. Britain hates them. No one in Hollywood will hire them after the leaks about their behaviour at Netflix, the old-guard at Montecito hates their guts (per Tatler), and if one untrue word is said about Camilla in Harry's book, already gone to print, Harry's title may finally - finally - be stripped.

Another point of interest: The Sun is reporting that Harry was apparently "bombarding" the Queen with phone calls in her final months, everytime asking for money. She referred him to his father, but Charles, like William, has long since refused to take any phone calls from Harry, meaning Harry is always put though to an aide who passes along messages. The Queen was the only one left who would speak to Harry, so he called her nonstop about money. When she, exasperated by so many phone calls from Harry, asked Charles why he refused Harry's calls, Charles apparently answered "I'm not a bank."

So, it looks as if Harry badly needs money.

Their financial burn rate must be massive, and the Queen left everything to Charles as is tradition, so not much cash to be had there.

Where do they go after all final bridges are burned by their show and his book?

Fun fact: Charles does not have the power to strip anyone of their hereditary titles or remove them from the line of succession. The government would have to pass a bill that allows him to do so.

This is part of the reason Charles had not given Edward the Duke of Edinburgh title. He wants a slimmed down monarchy and if he does it he can’t say but just you Edward, it would have to pass to one of Edwards kids. Then the working royals list starts getting a little unruly again.

The MP for the area that includes York, put forth a private members bill because they want Andrew out. It has a second reading in the next few days but it is expected to fail.

So as much as many of us want Harry cut out, it’s not within charles’ authority to actually do so, despite being king.

R105 - well, Harry has a three book deal, so we will be hearing more after this one comes out.

Also Meghan teased she will be writing a book regarding “Racism in the British monarchy: from colonialism until today.”

Many will laugh it off if it happens, but a lot of woke people with no critical thinking skills will take it on its word.

You would think that if they both resent the monarchy so much, and if they had any integrity, they would voluntarily give up their titles. But they don’t because they like the social status it gives them.

After the documentary and autobiography are released, I highly doubt that anyone would fault Charles for cutting these two fools off for good.

I love my step-kids, but if they pulled this crap on my spouse and me I'd put them on an ice flow and not look back. Actually, at this point, I think it would work in Charles' favor to put an end to this nonsense and stop with "their much loved members of the family" bullshit.

He doesn't have to make any statements--just completely freeze them out. No coronation. No empty invitations to family functions. And, especially, no money.

William and Kate already have dropped the pretense that they want anything to do with them. And it seems that most people respect them for it. Kate icing Meghan out at the walk about after the Queen died was one of the most delicious moments of the year. I never had any strong positive or negative feelings about Kate before that event....but that made her win my undying love.

She’s a good talker, so she could have sold her products (whatever that ended up being) and herself. She would have been raking in the money and living the life in California. A better one than as part of the BRF.

I’ve always thought the women that passed up William and Harry were the smartest ones. They all married better looking men with money without the bondage of the institution. It might not be too late for Meghan to change course, the US isn’t that invested in the Royals so she might be able to still turn it around. Not sure about that though.

Growing up in LA while being on the fringes of the Z list because her father was a crew member on a TV show must have been traumatizing for such an ego. Constantly reading about the A list and never being able to get anywhere close. Check out her IMDB page. It's pathetic.

About the time H and M married Wendy Williams said Markle had once showed up cold at her studios asking to speak with her.

Wendy had already left so M spoke with a producer and left a card for Wendy. She wanted to appear on the show.

Wendy read the card. She'd never heard of her so she tossed the card.

Later when the romance with H blew up in the press the producer told Wendy 'that's the woman who came in last year and left the card.'

So yes, Markle is a go-getter, or rather "quick off the mark" as the Queen described her.

God that's worse than Duchess of Sussex.

r248, you miss Meghan's main trick.

Harry doesn't think he needs regular sex anymore. He saved his Mommy by getting her all the way to safety in Montecito, and his job now is to PROTECT! while her job is to CRY! about him not protecting her enough.

Here's an approximation of how it goes: She gives him just enough not to stray, so long as he doesn't realise what she has done to him.

He shows he loves her IN PUBLIC, gets a blow job. He shows he loves her in an EXTREMELY PUBLIC way, he gets sex. He abuses his family in the process of doing either, he gets kink and anal - but severely rationed.

The rest of the time, he gets screamed at, cried at, and blamed for everything including the weather. And BECAUSE he's so AWFUL to her, THAT'S why he's not getting even a blowie tonight, HARRY.

She's too busy crying over how HE ruined HER life to fuck him.

This is the layout of the board of the very particular game that she has set for him, and he's running through it like a mouse while she quietly laughs to herself and collects money.

Sometimes feeling that you don't want to be alive is part of being alive. But it's noble of her to go on an on about it, even though she has a level of privilege few people enjoy. This seems to be the standard line now: go on and on about yourself and your miseries and justify it as public service.

Virtually everyone complains privately about what we go through in life and we all want many aspects of our lives to be better but the idea of going on public media for years on end about how hard your life is when you have even a fraction of what they have is a astonishing.

OK! I watched the first 3 episodes. Very little new info in this, which actually makes their complaints seem even more petty. In the Oprah and Cut interviews, she suggested she had a lot more to share...teasing that they had deeper reasons than being cut off from Charles' money teat and petty grievances against William and Kate for their atrocious behavior.

But, no. Those are the reasons, people are mean to them on social media, and the media hounding is terrible (which is probably their only legit gripe).

They really had to dig to find acquaintances who would comment on this doc and filled a lot of space with academic types bemoaning England's historic treatment of minorities.

Harry decried how Diana was deceived in the panorama interview yet uses a clip from it. She’s trying to look too perfect so you know something isn’t right under the surface. Likely she is indeed a bully to staff etc.

No Jessica Mulroney interviews - I guess she’s yet another ex friend.

She was batshit. She stalked and had affairs with married men, played games with the paparazzi, enjoyed the attention, and was killed by a drunk driver and not wearing a seatbelt.

He doesn’t think about those things.

He sure is his mothers son though. He’s exactly like her.

R335 I was just posting that on YouTube. Harry was two weeks shy of his 13th birthday when his mother died. How could he not remember her?

They have released some photos. Archie appears odd looking.

Harry wanted to “protect his family.” So he moves to the pap capitol of the world and loses his security because he’s no longer a working royal. How is that protecting his family?

R333 I mean, no one can really buy into the fact that they moved to LA for privacy.

That’s just the storyline they used as a way to break into show business.

It’s a big contradiction but also a great gateway into the victimhood / exploitation they were looking for.

They certainly weren’t going to admit being a Royal in the UK sucked and they were going to Hollywood to try and become the next Kardashians.

The respectable SĂŒddeutsche Zeitung in Germany accused the pair of making the same mistakes as Harry’s late mother Princess Diana.

"It seems as if Harry is caught in a real trauma, as if he sees in Meghan a second chance to save his mother,” Der Spiegel said, referring to Diana’s death while being pursued by paparazzi in Paris.

“Why he is telling this story on the very platform that is currently exploiting his mother's sad life as entertainment in the mega hit series ‘The Crown’ remains unclear. Perhaps it has to do with a lot of money," it added.

“These penguins are the last straw!” raged Slate's Laurent Sagalovitsch in France. “Not only are we likely to freeze to death this winter without any water or electricity, with strikes all over the place and forced to get our face masks out of the cupboard again, but on top of all this we're going to have to put up with the endless tale of these lovebirds whose intellectual horizons if they exist, are limited to what font to use on Instagram.”

“They are nothing but a vague actress and a fallen prince, both united behind the idea of selling to the highest bidder the story of their undying vacuousness.”

“Self-reflection is non-existent. There’s more self-pity,” the Dutch-language Belgian newspaper said.

Will Meghan save some “venom” for the end?” mused De Telegraaf in the Netherlands.

Her pattern is so predictable. A criticism of her becomes persistent. Although the criticism has been publicly discussed for months, she devises the most absurd lie to counter it, seemingly off the top of her head

She insisted on a lavish wedding to feed her ego and further her future plans outside the royal family.? No. She actually was married in violation of English law in her garden by no less than the. Archbishop of Canterbury. She couldn’t have cared less about the public wedding.

Isn’t it weird she invited only one member of her family but did invite bus loads of celebrities? But I did want to invite my niece!!! I literally wanted to double the size of the family guest list!!! But the royal family was selfishly obsessed with how inviting a niece without her mother would make them look That was super important to them! They were okay with the fact that only one member of my family attended, but it’s an inviolable rule in the royal family that a niece of the bride must be accompanied by her mother. I did my best!!!

Isn’t it pretty pathetic that she claims not to have known who her future husband was or to have researched him on the internet? Haha. Well I can reveal months later that those statements made sense! In fact we connected on instagram so I didn’t need to Google him! No need at all to do that before I went on my blind date with him

Gotta hand it to Meg though, she's the ultimate parvenu who has reached the stratosphere- there isn't a male equivalent in the US to match Harry for status- he might be broke but he has titles, something all the arriviste crave. A Clooney or Kanye would't provide her with all the attention she's getting now. Any divorce will keep her in clover- financially and publicly.

Loathsome as she is, she's played a blinder here and in this era of wokeness has used race, feminism and a few other dog whistle topics to silence her critics. Future generations of whores will use her as a touchstone.

I don't know about clover. Charles' private fortune (what was his mother's) is only worth one side or the other of 500,000,000USD. Sounds like a lot but Diana only got $17M and she was mother to the next king and no doubt had far more secrets to spill thank Markle ever will (short of telling outright lies, which I will leave to you to decide if she would, dear reader.) And at this point, how many secrets could she have left and why would anyone fear her? A scorched earth communications strategy if she tries to play hardball wouldn't be that difficult to pull off now. She doesn't exactly own the moral highground any more, does she? Not a sympathetic character. Diana, with all the goodwill she still commanded, only got $17M. This dame isn't worth half that and would be lucky to get it.

Meghan looked like us. She was one of us! But then they spoke ill of their family and they lost any and all goodwill from my fellow Latinas. Meghan is most definitely not one of us. We do not trash our family customs, nor those of our spouses. We do not speak ill in public of the family. And we venerate and respect our Abuelas. Our grandmothers are the ones we most shower with love and affection, most especially when they are very old and near death. While this pair was abandoning their amazing Abuela, and speaking badly of their family traditions, they lost any respect my fellow Afro-Latinas may have had. There are few things are sinful as hurting your Abuela, especially right before she dies. The only thing worse is doing so in public, for the world to see your lack of respect for the family.

I don't know if it's a chain, but Medieval Times is this shitty themed restaurant people might go on their birthdays in LA/OC and it has the whole Excalibur Knights vibe. It's so disrectful and this is the one moment, probably when she thought she was being a naive ingenue, that she exposed herself. It's mentioned in almost every scathing review and Harry looked like he wants to throttle her.

I think Meghan's generally full of shit, but I believe that she and her half-sibs were never close. Every time Sam whines, she brings out the same 2 pictures of her with Tiny Meg.

And acting SHOCKED that they weren't invited to the wedding.

Don’t know who you are responding to, R413, but was struck by your defence of Meghan Markle. I happen to know Markle and have met her father and Doria(albeit briefly).

I’ve written about this before, but I had a relative that interacted with Markle regularly
.although not by choice but by circumstance, Rachel was exceedingly cruel in her interactions with this relative. Tom Markle was around much more than Doria.

For you to claim that others are hypocritical in their discussions of Markle is naive if not outright delusional. She is demonstrating to the wider populace who she really is, and it is not a pretty picture. Perhaps you are like her: abusive, greedy and wildly inauthentic. That would explain your need to name call and abuse other posters on this thread, no?

The thing is Meghan isn't even smart in her scheming.

She should have brought Harry to meet her father right away and discreetly offered daddy some financial help (because they "care" about him) and have him sign some kind of NDA. I think she was afraid Daddy would spill the beans to Harry and ruin the lies she had told Haz and embarrassed because he was a bit stout and dumpy and would not fit her image walking her down the aisle.

If she knew living in the UK was short term she should have killed them all with kindness while she was there, she could have had Harry play the bad cop with his family while she plays the good cop.

You don't treat long term employees of the RF rudely. Once again, if she knew they were not staying in the UK long term she should have just kept a smile on her face and acted humble (even if she isn't).

R498. It is depressing that left-leaning US publications remain Harry and Meghan’s last bastion of mainstream support. Publications that I would normally agree with still respect Harry and Meghan even if they have begun to criticise some of their activities.

Most of the respect for the couple seems to be rooted in laziness and stupidity. Most US journalists have no conception of a constitutional monarchy since the US doesn’t have one, or even really the idea of having a separate, apolitical head of state.

Since they have no experience of anything but the American system and lack the discipline or intellect to understand any other system, they end up supporting all sorts of positions that are jarring for liberals to hold. Slate, for example, just published an article blaming the royal family for historical racism in British laws and society and for not protecting Meghan from British racism. The level of ignorance and the illiberal nature of these complaints is stunning. Do they believe the Queen has the power to censor the press? Are they angry she didn’t censor the press on Meghan’s behalf? Do these journalist believe that the royal family has had any substantive influence on British legislation and policy for at least two centuries.? Do they wish the Queen had had that kind of power and influence?

US journalists also end up adopting all sorts of fringe royalist positions. Depriving children who will have no role in serving the state and who will not even live in that state of royal titles is a violation of their god-given feudal rights. The mind boggles.

I don’t have Netflix but is the rollout strange? First it was vaguely thought the show would air before the end of the year. December 1st, still no clue. Then the day Kate and William arrived in Boston, the trailer dropped “coming soon”. Then a week later, three episodes (? “Chapters”) released in one day. Next week, the last three episodes will drop.

I expected more, earlier trailers, like a teaser in October and then a full trailer in November. Then maybe one episode per week (are they really episodes?) to spread out the draaama although a lot of shows release the whole season in one go nowadays. I think that’s a mistake because everyone binge watches, talk about it for a day or two, and then it’s on to the next show.

Netflix always rolls out a full series. They don't release episodes week-by-week like HBO and Apple do. So this is downright bizarre. Maybe there were issues with the last 3 episodes and they did some last minute editing.

As for Meghan making such a deal of having to curtsy to the Queen because she was an American, she is still an American - she isn't a British citizen - and she lives in California. So it's ridiculous she calls herself a Duchess. She is Mrs. Henry Mountbatten.

I just don't buy this. Meghan is smart...enough. I agree with the other poster upthread or on another thread. Perhaps Meghan decided in terms of her manipulation strategy to make a mockery of it all, to react as Harry would (though he didn't seem all that pleased with the curtsy comment). Exactly as the other poster said, invite Kate and Wills over knowing they are going to be formal when they come over, purposely wear ripped jeans and bare feet to show what a contrast - "boring and stuffy vs. free and comfortable". And then laugh about "what sticks they have up their asses" and "can you believe how boring they are". Meghan's whole schtick with The Tig was being "classy", hanging with Canada's elite, being a Jetsetter in the know about all the finer things in life, yet now she is suddenly a "Beverly Hillbilly" in front of the Queen. A dumb clueless American who has never left the valley? With Meghan there is something unscripted in her mind, everything has a purpose or reason to evoke an outcome.

R521 I think Netflix's strategy here it to try and maximize viewership and media interest by dividing the series into two parts. They allegedly paid a shitload of money for this series so they are trying to make their return. Despite the terrible reviews, we're left hanging to see what "truth bombs" they launch next week. Personally I don't think next week will be anymore exciting than these three episodes but it is a good PR strategy.

Now, R522 highlights one of the things that annoys me the most about Meghan. She is trying to present herself as this strong woman and yet always tries to play that she is also this very naive person who knew nothing about the UK and British Royal Family (despite the evidence to the contrary). These images are wildly contradictory to each other. It's basically the modern feminist versus the housewife who needs her husband to protect her. It just doesn't work. There is no way she is that stupid. It's all a fucking act to try and make her seem relatable to an American audience. Also as an American myself, I would've had zero issue bowing/curtsying to the Queen as a respect to the world's longest serving head of state.

by Anonymousreply 523December 10, 2022 5:38 PM

I think Meghan saw that her big supporters are black women who can't find a man to marry them, much less a prince. They live vicariously through her even though she wouldn't hit them with a stick. Every time a black celeb (see TJ Holmes) turns out to be fucking a blonde, they go ballistic. I think there is a lot of jealousy because basically - judging from rich black celebs who can be choosy about who they fuck - black celebs just want to fuck blonde. Though Meghan is certainly the palest biracial woman out there. I had no idea she was half-black when she was first pictured with Harry. Tom Markle has powerful genes.

by Anonymousreply 524December 10, 2022 5:43 PM

Truth R523. It's also been known that the Queen really isn't that fussed about being bowed to. That was more Margaret's thing. Anybody, even my 7 year old niece knows you curtsey to a queen from watching "Frozen". Also, when Meghan decides to do her moronic naivety act, she needs to stop dragging Americans with we. "As an American", "we Americans don't do or understand this". Most of us, including her, are not that stupid. Even if I were, if I was trying to bag a prince and was about to have lunch with the Queen, I would watched every YouTube video and read every article about protocol and I'm sure Meghan is no different; Her rebellion is what appeals to Harry.

What I can't understand is Harry's snide comments about marriage in his family, stating his brother and father chose and married women who 'fit a mold' and that he 'followed his heart' (married 'for love'), thereby implying his marriage is somehow superior.

I mean, come on. Any mature person, be they royal or even a truck driver, chooses a life partner based on many things, a primary one being compatibility to their lifestyle and profession. He implies that this is a bad thing, which just had me shaking my head. Love and lust certainly play a role, esp in early relationships, but most sensible people realize they need other, more practical binding factors for a long-term partnership.

William, for example, is an heir to the throne. Of COURSE he needed to choose a wife/spouse who would fit into his pre-ordained, highly public and stressful lifestyle. He hit the jackpot when he found Kate, who is clearly up for that challenge and also seems to love him unconditionally. It was a great choice - and his brother finds fault with this?

It's almost as if Harry is saying, don't look at the obvious unsuitability of my wife as a partner of a senior royal - I married her because I was totally infatuated, therefore it's ok and justifiable.

This is really surprising to me. What did Kate ever do to Harry, besides be genuinely be affectionate towards him? He and Kate seemed to have a real bond. They used to do engagements together w/o Wills and Harry is no actor. They looked like they were having a blast together. I know why Meghan doesn't like her and she makes it known, but this is one area where I am surprised Harry would make any kind of derogatory statement. A lot of journalists are saying that Harry is in deep pain, upset that he is fucked up, yet Will is OK in the same institution so he lashes out. He's still deeply hurt by Charles (and Camilla), but instead of confronting his father, he'd rather take down the institution.

Other people have sued and are suing Bouzy. Plus it seems Bouzy allegedly lied on his bankruptcy filing - a federal offense.

I watched the first 2 episodes thanks to Revenge 15's free uploads. As I watched them, what I found most interesting was any bit of their lifestyle that I could see. It was filmed at a rental, but the clips they made with their phones were authentic. I wanted to see more of their pool and view (the birdwatching where Meghan mocks Harry to Archie - "your dad likes to watch birds" in that bitchy tone she uses, as Harry is fascinated by a humming bird feeding - so Charles) - I kept zooming in to see to any bit of their home.

I was also thinking that even after all this, at least up to this point, the late Queen/Charles were very lenient with them. The two things that seemed to really piss the Queen off were the racism allegations and their lie that she had approved and/or been asked about Lilibet. Those were the 2 times post Megxit where she issued a statement from the Palace. I think Lilibet pissed her off more than the racism.

The Sussexes made a wrong turn. Seeing how much they have gotten away with so far, they probably could have gone the Kardashian route while being quasi "half in" royals and probably made the same if not more money. How much more fun and interesting if they showed their lifestyle, the struggles with moving/adjusting to the US, their misery at Tyle Perry's La Quinta Inn layover, their house hunt in Montecito, Harry trying to deal with the leaky roof per The Cut, quirky differences Harry experiences being a civilian in CA vs. a royal AND still kept a good relationship with the family. In hindsight seeing how this all played out, I think they could have had it all.

All they had to do was keep quiet about the family, show up to events and get along with everyone while doing their own thing. They could have had the balcony shots, prime seating, and still merched in CA and people would have like them much better. The problem with all this is that they need to be able to have a sense of humor (or appear to) and be able to be self deprecating, to have the ability to laugh at themselves and let us laugh too affectionately. Kind of a Royal Simple Life. Meghan could still be her controlling self trying to teach Harry how to navigate Hollywood, but I don't think Harry could ever let go.

Regarding Meghan "never realizing she was Black or mixed race prior to moving to the UK", whatever happened to the story that she told ad nauseam about being in middle school and having to check a box for a school project as to what race you were. Meghan "didn't see anything that described her so her dad (TM) said, 'why don't you create your own box'".

There was a very, very brief shot of Doria when she was really young w/ Meghan as a toddler and Doria was gorgeous or at least very, very attractive. Still, throughout all of this, I think Doria has really been dignified. Even in her interviews on this show, she says she knew race would always be an issue, but that was about it. Nothing as it pertains to the Windsors or even what her life as a royal grandmother has been like. Another opportunity missed to hear something interesting. What was it like to be the only family member, sitting alone at Windsor? It seemed like Charles & co. tried to make Doria feel as included as possible in the wedding coverage.

There was a look in Doria's face that gave me the impression she would have rather Meghan not married Harry and a sense that she really rather not be there having she "speak her truth." Free spirit Doria who likes to get high, dance around, do yoga, and dabble in "experimental philosophies" and whatever else she is into probably would have preferred to not have to deal with this. Even if she has a shady past, I always have and have continued to like Doria.

I was also interested that in the show, one of the characters described her as, "Brown hair, brown eyes, exotic-looking." What was that supposed to mean? From the Mysterious Orient (tm)?

That was actually well publicized that Charles and Camilla were quite taken with Doria. Who knows if it’s true.

That being said, Charles seemed to like Meghan quite a bit in the beginning. That was also the story going round.

Agree r572. I think Meghan is a textbook narcissist, but, her physical attractiveness is pretty undeniable. In fact i think it is one of the reasons why she has managed to pull the wool over many people’s eyes for so long regarding her manipulative tendencies. She has beautiful delicate and symmetrical features and is quite elegant and pretty.

When I read the posts that start going down the road of intense insults about her looks, even accounting for personal taste, it’s obvious the green eyed monster of jealousy is at play.

R597 beauty is subjective. Meghan can look great but as we saw from the doc most of that is fillers, makeup and angles. Her face is not symmetrical at all naturally which is why she looks so different every time we see her. The fillers settle. She also has a terrible figure. Why would a bunch of gay men be jealous of her.

R597, it’s been established that she’s obsessed with reading about herself online, and I suspect that some posters get a kick out of knowing that they’re getting under her skin. Also, and there’s no way around this, she has had a lot of work done. She has that synthetic look—and it’s always easier to criticize when someone’s appearance is completely their own choice.

Um, computer says no.

Again, computer says no.
