December 20, 1955

On December 20, 1955, the people of Wales proclaimed their new capital city and say they’re going to call it Llanrhosllannerchrugogagagog. Queen Elizabeth sent a message to them that just said, ‘try again.’ So they did. The people of Wales said that their capital would be Cardiff. Prince Phillip got mad and shouted, “Are those goobs trying to take the piss? Everyone knows the capital of Wales is “W”. Queen Elizabeth just patted his arm and said, “Cardiff it is.”

Share this post, if you can’t tell whether the Twisted Historian was trying to say the name of the city or was coughing up a hairball.
