My dad basically grew up in an English boarding school in the 1960's, back when they could still beat you (I don’t think they do that anymore?). Basically, his parents divorced, and no one knew what to do with the kids, so off to boarding school they were shipped. He was miserable because he was beaten with a cane, so…

When I was young my family hosted a boy from a choir of high-school age Brits from a fancy boarding school. This was in Boston, MA. They were giving a concert in Boston. His parents, who apparently travelled quite a bit and were not often in the U.K., happened to be in Boston. The son seemed shy about telling them the…

Do you know how much math and science goes into building a boat? Not to mention science in gardening, plus aesthetic and history.

Also depends on the age. Tough on a 6 year old. But I went away to boarding school at 16, which is the perfect age for getting away from your parents.

I disagree, actually. It does portray boarding school as a cool place to get into hijinks with your awesome friends too. I used to love British books about boarding school when I was a kid, and although a lot of the books included magic (okay, all of them), the part I liked the most was the relatively adult-free…

Counterpoint: It’s a drafty, leaky building full of ghosts and monsters where an actual war breaks out, professors bully students and other students receive obvious preferential treatment.

If nothing else it will get them prepared to build boats to escape the post-Brexit hellscape the country to turn into.

I think the old phrase “If you can’t beat them, join them” applies here. He did what he could to stop Trump before the election, and now he’s doing what he can to minimize Trump’s damage to the country and the world. Don’t love the man but I can respect how he’s handled this disaster in his party.

Yup. Can’t wait for someone to whisper in his ear, “Mr. Trump, errr, the, uhhh, the Supreme Court already ruled it is legal to burn the flag. Twice.”

I think he won white women because a majority of white women, like white men, are not well educated. When comparing 2012 to 2016, in addition to a slight decline in turnout among the “Obama Coalition”, which includes some highly educated voters, the biggest shift in voters was most cleanly defined when you look at…

Patiently waiting for the post discussing Rory & Paris as the forever couple. It’s the truest love story, really.

Jess, sure. I guess if I had to pick...

Ugh, no, Marty is the OG Nice Guy and his arc in Season 7 is SO BAD. Paris + Rory 4eva though, and then Rory would finally have a career too because there’s no way Paris is putting up with any scrubs.

She doesn’t really have enough of a personality to be horrible until like season 4. Up until then she was mostly just quiet and wanted to go to Harvard and then she was in college so they had to choose a new personality trait and they chose “make her AWFUL.” Like she still has some dumb moments in seasons 1-3 but…

Kelly Bishop should win an Emmy for that DAR scene alone.

Being able to binge it may have an interesting affect on your view of Jess. As I remember it, he doesn’t really turn into a nice guy til the very end and really, he’s not around long enough to actually know that he’s changed that much.

Oh my god, she’s totally going to have that baby and then give it to Logan and Odette to raise so that she can stay in Stars Hollow and and work at the Gazette for free and make fun of Michele with her mom. Rory is the WORST.

I begged for this yesterday and now I’m so late to the party! But yes Jess always Jess. He was a mixed up asshole teenager but he was the only one who understood Rory. She wasn’t something he wanted to own or possess. They were equals. We saw glimpses of growing Jess when he did some guest appearances after leaving…

COUNTERPOINT: NEITHER OF THE ABOVE HAIRCUTS ARE OK

*Spoilers, yada yada, I know this post is just supposed to be about Logan but I have no one else to talk to about this and I just HAVE SO MANY FEELINGS. Deal.*
