But how about we make a show where the Confederates won the war? /s

Is it really fantastic drama though? Instead of any real exposition, there's a lot of "things are getting hectic!" yadda yadda.

I'm with the "this is fake" crowd. There have been too many inconsistencies and unbelievable twists and turns.

That last bit is exactly the puzzlingly judgmental, acerbic part of Marnie that no one likes.

It's not shitty to want a "responsible," financially-stable life. It's shitty to imagine that your friends will face some kind of comeuppance because they're not like you. (How do you know they're carefree? They have stress in their lives too right now; everyone has something to deal with.) And I agree with the other…

if that's the case, then why's it so important to you that in ten years she'll "look terrible and be poor?" Will that prove to you that your life choices were right, because hers were somehow wrong?

I have lots of clients and friends who are lawyers. Most of them love their job, too. None of them hate their "friends" for having a crazy life - being able to travel and party. Usually, they love those friends because it adds an important aspect of their life that they miss from working 60 hours a week - and…

No, I have experienced. But saying that your "friend" will "look terrible and be poor" in the years ahead? Dislike a little? Feel a little swindled? Sure. Wish and predict bad things? No. That's cruel and says more about you than her.

If all you care about is money, then I see your point. Being a lawyer will probably age you faster than you know (along with the bitterness from not living a life you find internally fulfilling), but with all that money you'll be able to get as much plastic surgery as you want.

Um, she may be your friend but you most certainly are not her friend.

Is this some kind of lawyer thing? I know a few others who hate on their "friends" for being happy.

You sound a little nasty there, sweetie.

Wow, the end of that was really mean and awful. Does your "friend" know you're jealous of her and predict a horrible future for her?
