We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The book has A Doll House, The Wild Duck, Hedda Gabler, and The Master Builder. I think it'll work.

All great plays.

I remember liking Rosmersholm a lot when I read it, but I couldn't remember what happened. So I went here: [link] - it's all about "naive idealism" being destroyed, and multiple suicides and what-not. Huh.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I wrote a paper in a college history of theatre class comparing and constrasting Ibsen and Stringberg and their views on women and feminism. I think I got an A. I can't remember.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I'd be interested to read that. I can't talk about Strindberg - he makes me go incoherent and ranty and teeth-gnashy.

Ibsen = feminist

Strindberg = insane

Strindberg was weird = he thought women should not have careers but all three of his wives were strong, successful career women.

move out and draw fire

he thought women should not have careers

I'm guessing that's exactly why the next few words are "all three of them"

I got props for stopping short of calling him a misogynistic bastard in print.

I don't think I ever reclaimed the paper from the prof. I had senoritis really bad and that was my last semester of school.

The only time I have laughed at Strindberg: Strindberg + Helium

Oh, dear, that's fucking hilarious.

If I get more cats, I think I shall name them Ibsen, Strindberg and Munch.

Strindberg and Munch were rivals for the love of a woman - Munch did a number of paintings inspired by this....
