Happy 4th of July! As we all know, there’s no better time of year than during the most quintessential of American summer celebrations to talk about a Christmas episode of the Gilmore Girls.
Googling the words “Santa” and “America” is 100% guaranteed to produce some amazing results.
The “Oh, gross, he’s touching me!” face:
I hope that what happened at the end of the last episode doesn’t have any bearing on what happened in this episode. I kind of fell asleep (lol – kind of. I did.) during the last episode so…
There have been many things preventing me from writing this review. 1) Orange is the New Black came back so I obviously had to watch the entire season in a day. 2) Ticketmaster irritation. I got so many free vouchers! I haven’t been able to use any of my codes, probably because those assholes gave a bunch of people the same voucher number and called it “first come, first serve.” I wanted to see Duran Duran, damn it! And 3) I just didn’t want to write this review. SEASON 7, WHY MUST YOU BE YOU??
But, seriously – DURAN DURAN. As a former goth girl who spent many a night dancing to 80s New Wave, I love Duran Duran! I’ve seen them before, but I’d like to see them again. Maybe on a night when I don’t have to work and then drive 90 minutes to try to catch their encore? That would be cool. Ticketmaster is a bunch of jerks.
My favorite Duran Duran song is Rio. Ah, the 80s. When you could literally sit on a boat and do some pratfalls and call it a video:
Today is not a good day for America. Today is also a depressingly common day for America. I am not equipped to provide any sort of analysis for why mass shootings continue unabated in this country. All I can say is that I stand in solidarity with all of those in the LGBT community for they are once again the target of violence based on backward attitudes. I also stand in solidarity with the millions of peaceful Muslims across the planet who will once again be painted as a monolithic hate group by small-minded politicians and those who place fear and hatred above tolerance and understanding.
To try to lighten the mood, here’s a picture of a very fluffy cat:
Let’s talk Gilmore Girls, shall we?
