    Ehh…Not that it’s entirely applicable to this case, using royal titles as positive complements to people still seems like a nice way to keep such titles positive in peoples’ minds. Which is bad.

    Like the whole fad of calling people “kings” for having an agreeable opinion. Extremely lame.

    The juxtaposition of “no kings” but then using queen in a positive light in the same sentence is hilariously hypocritical on a linguistic level.
