So do "Gilmore Girls"--insert French accent here:

Michel: Look, I've had my peace with the fact that everyone who calls here is a notch above brain dead, and that the pennies I am thrown each week are in exchange for me dealing with these people in a nonviolent manner. And usually that is fine, but today, sorry lady, I have ennui.

12. !
We had the poster on the office door at the first bookstore I worked at. Because it was in front of us all day, we had the whole thing memorized!

I bought the tiny hardcover a couple of years ago, just for old time's sake.

13. I immediately bought the hardcover the first time I chanced across it

...in a used bookstore. Because dammit, not too many attempts at comedy can make me giggle like a schoolgirl on speed, but that did. I STILL crack up every time I glance through it. I used to keep it handy in my office for stress relief, taking particular glee when someone who was a pain in the ass had one of the character's names.


:hi:



PS - Now I gotta find me a poster!

11. Oh, I dunno...whatever....
(And on a side note, it really cracked me up that a model in Hansel's loft ("Zoolander") was named Ennui. :))

16. Massive Gorey fan
Have all his works. It was a toss up as to what to use as my avatar. Luffy or the Doubtful Guest. Luffy won out because although darkness and depression are a part of my life I focus on brighter thoughts to make sure I do not fall victim to the shadows.
