‘Bonding' through royal street parties’?

bbc

Two, we can bond through street parties celebrating the significance of the people despite these two scrounging gits.

Which is to be preferred?

"Those people spending large amounts of time accessing porn are not having more fun," said Dr Heather Wood.

"They are more worried about themselves, more worried about what they are looking at, and report more relationship problems."
