Julie Andrews on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson

“Now why is it every time i talk to you- ‘cause i don’t think of you as being- I mean I think of you as being sort of dignified and you have a lot of class, but every time i talk to you everything seems sexual” -Craig Ferguson on Julie Andrews [x]

Sometimes people have a hard time understanding what a happy relationship between two people who obvs think the other is awesome looks like.

We think this is one great (and holy bananas, so freaking hilarious) example.

OH MY GOD PLEASE EVERYONE WHO FOLLOWS ME PLEASE WATCH THIS I PROMISE YOU WILL SMILE AND IT’S SO ADORABLE OMFG

Is it possible to just skip the whole awkward dating phase and jump straight to the point where you are happily married, giving each other backing vocals for impromptu karaoke sessions while pumping gas?

Can they adopt me?

"[T]he TV show has turned Catelyn into every trope that the books attempted to subvert. She is the interfering mother, the wicked stepmother, the female character who puts her emotions above common sense. And when she can’t fill any of these roles — when she would need to simply be a character like any other — she is shoved into the background and replaced with boy kings, love interests, and even her newly introduced brother.

The only role that she hasn’t yet filled is the Evil Queen. How lucky that this trope will come along soon enough. In it, she can be both stereotyped and silenced, as the wicked crone whose words must be interpreted by others."
