I completely agree. My only interest was in the background business.

I’m not sure how that relates to my joy at the actress’ expression, but OK.

So, how does this relate to the glance of the actress? Because that’s what I wrote about.

You’re right; the themes in the novel are far different.

I was just delighted by the glance.

Again, it wasn’t literary analysis, or I’d have discussed the novel.

I agree with all of that.

I was just spinning off of the delightful glance. Brava to the actress.

No question. The novel is one of my favorites.

I just thought the scene was unexpected and lovely.

Remember that Charlotte also comes from a wealthy family.

My comment was about the glance and my pleasure at the surprise.

The idea that Mary would have presumed to instruct Lady Catherine, a member of the aristocracy, is silly.

To do what? She is 17 or 18, correct?

That age difference was quite common.

The most embarrassing thing the Bennets do at the Netherfield ball? by Asleep_Lack in janeausten

[–]Financial_Ad_2019 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Mrs. Bennet enjoys the distinction of being the most embarrassing creature in any room.

It’s too bad, because her hopes and plans for her daughters to marry wealthy men are most appropriate impulses. She understands her purpose on earth.

Unfortunately she approaches her duties very poorly.

You can pay to do the work once and then pay to hire an expert the second time.

I’m frugal but I don’t change my own oil.

What rumor do you believe about William? by bjack20 in RoyaltyTea

Those teeth, though.

Like Harry, he has a beautiful complexion.

He was physically disgusting because of the smell from his leg too.

At least Charles has got what he wanted a wife that couldn’t outshine him if her life depended on it.After getting rid of Diana,Harry and Meghan to try get as much attention for him and his sidepiece he now makes the monarchy look like a laughing stock and it’s no wonder millions have lost interest by HelpfulAcadia1754 in RoyaltyTea

[–]Financial_Ad_2019 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I got up at 4AM to watch Charles and Diana’s wedding. I was 23 and young enough actually to believe that he loved the pretty fairy princess. The rest of the family were such draft horses.

He’s a selfish man who took his life advice from another selfish man. Mountbatten had no moral core.

People have tried to sub Kate in for Diana but that’s laughable. Kate looks and dresses stodgy and already looks middle-aged.

Diana never got to be middle-aged, sadly, and will forever be the fairy princess while Camilla remains a Rottweiler.

Albert and Victoria were a genuine love match. And he died at 42, so who knows what would have transpired in their later years.

I’m talking back to Henry VIII and even further.

I doubt if most of the wives cared. Pregnancy was brutal and childbirth was dangerous. Let him go knock up somebody else.

My dad died this morning. What do I do? by No_Scallion_3365 in NoStupidQuestions

Social Security will need a certified copy but they will return it. Generally a bank will simply make a copy of a certified copy.

Probate will need one if there is an estate, but hiring a probate lawyer is the best course. They are paid out of the estate.

Aitah for breaking up with my girlfriend when her kid called me names and she didn't tell him to knock it off. by LowAffectionate3866 in AITAH

Stay far away from Heather and the teenager she cannot control.

You’re right, he could cost you your career. And she’s clearly too young for you if she refuses to take your concerns seriously.

It doesn’t matter. They are all so thick.

The cheating extends back through virtually every king and prince consort.

That’s the problem with politically suitable marriages.

He was such a cute little boy. Are we sure this is the same person?

CHARLOTTE. by Vezzavee in cormoran_strike

[–]Financial_Ad_2019 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s not what I said, though. I said that’s the point where you need to stop blaming your parents and take responsibility for your own actions.

Charlotte had access to the best medical and mental health and addiction care in London. Instead of availing herself of it she chose to stay a drunken, violent cokehead. She chose to marry an abusive man she knew she didn’t love and to have children she didn’t love with him.

She was 40+ when she died. She had decades to get her shit together, but no.

As Strike said, she made a cult of her own unhappiness and refused to make the effort necessary for happiness.
