Incredibly lame joke I thought up while walking home, and I just had to share · 5:05pm Mar 9th, 2018
What would King Carl XVI Gustav of Sweden call the center-piece of his collection, were he a gamer?
The royal Wii.
...
[Spontaneous rain of rotten tomatoes.]
I regret nothing~!

...Guess it would have been clearer if I'd gone for some fictional king that's known for and actually does the majestic plural, AKA royal we thing instead of a real one, but didn't think it was that un-obvious what the pun was.

Ohh...
ooooh...
I'm an idiot.
In my defense, there ain't no sanity clause here.

Who's Carl, you mean? Current King of Sweden.
Was originally going to be Queen Elizabeth for the international recognition factor, but I got a small pang of patriotism, and it just didn't feel right to joke about somebody else's monarch, you know?
Well it's not a horrible joke and it's slightly clever.
Also i half guessed, half remembered that Carl XVI Gustav was the current King of Sweden rather than some previous one, so yay me! I'm not such a ignorant American.
Curiously enough, he calls it the same thing whenever he has to excuse himself from a conversation to go use the restroom.
Im offended as a swede
Isn't he the one who spends all his time on Casey and Andy's couch?
(Yes, that's the same Andy who wrote The Martian.)

Hejsan!
Tror Carl 'Gutta' kan ta ett skämt, men visst.

Yup.
Man, that was a great comic. Almost a shame it got ended while still going so strong, but it probably cemented its legacy so I get why.
...Wait, what? That's the same dude?
Huh. Multi talented guy, then.

That IS truly terrible. Let me introduce you to the wonders of SCP, particularly #504...
