I’m too sexy for my hat
This one goes out to all the girl readers of my blog. I’ve noticed a disturbing trend lately.
That many of the girls I know are fans of a very disturbing mini series.
A Mini Series that wasn’t even made in the good ole USA.
What could be this disturbing mini-series you ask?
Pride and Predjudice.
Not that I’ve seen it. I’ve never been pressured into watching it. Oh no. Never.
So with that in mind. I present only the bestest character in the entire show.
Mr. Collins
He has to be my HERO!
Long live Mr. Collins (whom I’ve never watched on the telly)
Hello, my name is Leigh, and I love Pride and Prejudice. (Though only in two forms, the book and the BBC series, don’t EVEN try to pull any updated, let alone updated LDS, versions on me.)
Anyway, so, dude, what???!! Mr. Skeevy Collins?? I need to hear more about this hero-worship. What is up with that? Do you appreciate the whole “settling” aspect of what he represents? No, I know that’s not it, because you are a 193-year-old single guy, after all (“Not that there’s anything wrong with that”–in my best Seinfeldesque voice). Is it because he’s a geek? If so, there’s a HUGE difference between hottie geek with wit, charm, intelligence and sincerity (read: YOU) and a dull, brown-nosing, self-righteous geek (read: Mr. Collins). Not gettin’ it. Tell me more.
I think Leigh has a crush on you. Maybe you won’t be a 193-year-old single guy much longer. BTW, I am actually not the biggest fan. Especially of the LDS version.
LOL. Yep, I do. Shhhhhhhh, don’t tell Brendo!! 🙂
Hi. I am the one they refer to as Brendo. I am Leigh’s HUSBAND!!! Somehow I always knew Jane Austen would be the downfall to my marriage. And to think that I actaully quoted a line of hers in “Emma” as part of the most romanitic surprise engagment ordeal ever, just makes things even worse!!! Lol. Wow. Well, she couldn’t have dumped me for a better man. We both love Hardy, although I alwasy thought it was as FRIENDS!!! I guess Leigh and I have some things to talk about tonight. And as for Hardy, you just keep playin dumb my brotha, like you had nothing to do with this. Chick flicks are damgerous, sometimes dealdy, but a chick miniseries??? that has eternal consequences my man. We’ll have to settle things up in June when the Brendo rolls back into Dodge, ready for a shoot out!! Lol.
Once again, this shows the EVIL that is Pride and Prejudice!
I loooooooooove P&P. Collins is the perfect hero for all those sick girls who only care about getting married, not about the quality of their husbands. Ugh. I hate Charlotte.
But I LOVE Darcy.
But yeah, the LDS version, like all LDS versions of anything, sucks.
Yeah.
You girls are all crazy, with your insane love of things Pride and Prejudice.
