This will forever be my favorite romantic period movie.

(Until I, or someone else, turn my Elizabeth Bennett/ Emma Woodhouse alt-universe love story where they're each other's Mr Darcy/ Mr Knightley into a film.)

you may or may not talk anymore

I found that sentence to be the most poignant (in a sea of many poignant sentences). There's a quiet, unsettling sadness to the fact that people that were once the most important in your life are no longer in it.

It's a little silly, even. I mean, JUST TALK TO HER, right? Say hi. You can say hi. You've said hi a thousand times before.

But you can't. Where she lives now, there's only silence.

(Ps. I've never watched the show so I have no opinion if these ladies were actually slashy, but I'll take your word for it.)

I worked part-time as a telemarketer for a few months while I was in college. One time, I turned in two hundred sets of completed questionnaires in a two-hour shift (which is super quick) and was surprised and elated by MY OWN AWESOMENESS.

My boss called me in later and I was told that I missed the questions on the back pages. Had to call ALL two hundred people AGAIN, which if you didn't know, it was quite a miracle to get people to talk to me the FIRST TIME.

But, but... "a willing foe, and sea room". :(

IT WAS A TRAP.

What a way to make a great site even more awesome.

(I'm also happy that I finally get confirmation that The Toast is indeed in reference to a toast, as in bread, since the new vertical is named The Butter. "A willing foe, and sea room" has tricked me into believing that The Toast is, y'know, a toast, as in champagne and awkward speeches. Or maybe it's both. Life is a rich tapestry and all that.)

SO HAPPY. :DD
