God save the Queen … from having to see a man's bare bottom! Liam Warriner, 22, of Sydney, has been charged after allegedly mooning Queen Elizabeth II in Brisbane. Warriner was bailed out on Monday and is expected to face charges of willful exposure and public nuisance at Brisbane Magistrates Court on Friday, The Courier Mail reports. Warriner reportedly exposed his behind with an Australian flag placed between his bottom cheeks after the Queen waved at him.

Warriner said he didn't think he offense would be taken so seriously. "I mooned the Queen. Everybody's seen someone's butt, come on," he said. "You see it on TV all the time, you see it in movies, it's accepted in PG-rated programming these days, but yet it's an offense to the Queen."

Warriner said it was just his rear end that was exposed — nothing too graphic. "Not the front at all. There were loads of people there to see the Queen. I wouldn't want all of them seeing [that]," he said.

    I'm not sure. Was this guy trying to say something or just pulling a prank?

    No matter what he says, that's still pretty classless of him.
