I know it's cool to 'not give a fuck', but I watched 30 mins of the actual ceremoney (got bored when they started singing hymns). I enjoyed the spectacle. Obviously it's debatable whether so much money should have been spent but I think it's important as part of British culture that things like this are big events. I'm not really defending the monarchy but there's a reason other countries envy it, it does bring a lot of personality to the country. Who knows, when William is in charge he might actually do something.
