Truth to Power: Roasting 12 Crusty Old Kings
It’s the perfect time to take these kings down a peg — after they’ve been dead for centuries!
King Friedrich I of Prussia
This guy looks like if Super Mario had a “guillotine” power-up.
King Charles II
He looks like someone they’d find hiding under the floor of a women’s public bathroom.
Francis I, King of France
“Damn, I never should have smoked that shit, now I’m the King of France.”
King Henry VIII
Today he’d be known as “the TSA’s Greatest Enemy.”
King Ludwig I of Bavaria
Incredible that all of Bavaria bowed to a man who looks like he sells electric keyboards.
King Charles VIII of France
There must be a flounder somewhere in his bloodline. Guy could press his head against a wall and still see the whole room perfectly.
King James I of England
Nice hat!
King George I
All hail King Eeyore! He looks like a guy who was about to kill himself, but then he won the lottery and figured he’d stick it out.
Louis XIII
A robe, a staff and strappy gladiator sandals? What are you, judging a vogueing competition where the loser is put to death?
King George II
I have never seen a guy who looks so embarrassingly excited to be king. Probably said “Hooray!” at his own coronation. This is the face of someone who is going to be violently overthrown and beheaded within the week.
Augustus II, King of Poland
If a seagull ate a magic French fry that turned them into a man, here’s what he’d look like.
King Louis XIV
This guy looks like he spends $4,000 a month on OnlyFans.
