George V was succeeded by his son Edward VIII who was succeeded by his brother George VI, who was succeeded by Elizabeth II. This makes George V the current queen’s great uncle. (Warned you this would be annoying)

Hey, mate - if it wasn’t for the British royal family, you lot wouldn’t even know what pointless, entitled, inbred layabouts WERE, so put THAT in your shoe and sniff it.

10. They were both ironically good for the environment?
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

I read back when the volcano blew, it spit out a bunch of ash and CO2, which was terrible for the environment, but the amount of emissions from jet fuel saved from the lack of air travel far outweighed that from the volcano.
I'd imagine the amount of people that Genghis Kahn killed ended up being pretty good for the environment, too.
