No more than accidentally falling onto a dick counts as sex.

Yeah, but if it is an ejaculating dick and that someone who fell on it got pregnant, then you can not say that the sex did not occur.

I don't know how some guys can stand long facial hair. For me, it itches.

Nope. Charles became king the instant his mum snuffed it. If the coronation never takes place, Charles is still king.
Not that people falling over wouldn't make for a more watchable coronation ceremony...

Why does the character in Ozark who has the same first name as me also have to have such a derogatory last name?

Ok, but what is the point of coronation then?

Showmanship. Think of it like an awards show: it’s already decided who’s won the BAFTA for best actress. They could simply ship it to her home, but people like a bit of pageantry.

They could at least make a Hallmark movie with Meghan Markle where she attends the coronation and gets coronated by mistake and thus becomes a queen.
