I think that was a joke but your explanation of why you don’t like lorelai is very close to why I don’t like her. Pretty sure she’s a mary sue for Amy Sherman-Palladino. if you’ve seen any interviews with her, she tries very hard to be soooo quirky, usually by wearing a terrible hat.

Even as a teenager I thought Lorelai acted like a spoiled brat most of the time and was also usually a dick. I got frustrated when Rory repeatedly had to be “the parent,” although then I realized that’s also because it’s somewhat similar to the relationship I have with my own mother (minus the rich grandparents part).
The little otter is so mad at her trainer right here. Like damn, why did you give her the cups in the wrong order you monster.
“Elsie Otter” sounds like the title/main character of a quirky network sitcom starring Zooey Deschanel.
Dad you’re embarrassing me!
When they brought in Luke’s annoying surprise daughter, I was done. It was so arbitrary and annoying. And they made me dislike Sherilyn Fenn. Not cool, man.
How so?
Rory turned into the biggest asshole in the later seasons. I kept waiting for her to come back from it, but she just...didn’t. I think Lorelai wasn’t as bad, since even though she was being kind of unbearable with Luke, Luke was being kind of unbearable with her; sort of an Ouroboros of relationship suck. From what…
Basically, I realized I don’t like Rory and I really can’t stand Lorelai, but all the side characters make the show worth watching.
I’m really interested in seeing Widow Emily. She was an amazing character, but her life had become Mrs. Richard Gilmore due to societal expectations. I’m interested in Emily as somebody both mourning a beloved husband, but also maybe finally getting to be Emily Gilmore.
IDK Edward Hermann will not be involved (RIP Richard). And upon a thorough Netflix re watching I decided that Rory and Lorelei were kind of assholes (although I would still totally hang out with them).
Jesus..13 years oldx, and she had the presence of mind to say, this isn’t right...and she died for it. I sometimes wonder if I had reacted differently in my life, like a time I MAde out with this stranger heavily on a bus then had a moment of clarity, in public, whhere I went, nope, I’m going home alone. Or when I got…
Is it bad that I kind of want this to be my job?
THIS. Hubs and I make a good living and we can’t afford anything. It’s so depressing, knowing we can’t afford a strip of a grass for my toddler.
I’ve given up on pretty much all my living-arrangement fantasies outside “the cheapest apartment I can find.”
Lena Dunham bought a bungalow in my favorite dream neighborhood in LA recently (Spaulding square) and I was always like 1.5 million isnt so bad. Maybe I’ll make it, and be able to afford one of those adorable houses one day when I’m super, super successful.
Big Gwen gives me embarrassment chills
Larger-than-life Background Gwen is too distracting. I felt like Gwen had practiced all of her facial expressions for the song in a bathroom mirror and projected it for the world to see.
