Short

For anyone else here who shares with me a great and rousing love lust for old-school Fry and Laurie:



I love that they're not playing to their usual types in this clip. Also, please note that they are both wearing mock turtlenecks.

[livejournal.com profile] bestill gifted me with a shortbread mold yesterday, so last night I made shortbread for the first time ever! Or so I thought. Turns out shortbread is the crust of the lemon bars I've been making forever and ever. Just with a tad more powdered sugar. And a fancy stoneware mold. Thank you for the beautiful mold, hon!

Mmmmm. Shortbread.

They're cuter *because* of the mock turtlenecks.

So why doesn't that work for me? How come they get to rock the ironic sexy in the mocks? So. Unfair.

Well, I have to admit it's probably because I know they're comedians. If they walked into a bar like that, and I didn't know them, I'd totally make fun of them.

...are you saying I'm not funny?

[identity profile] tessagratton.livejournal.com 2009-12-04 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I hate to break it to you.

God damn it!

Guess I should keep my day job, then.

Though, you could probably go on tour with your wine-and-batleth combo...

It's not as funny without a hapless sidekick, though, and I don't think [livejournal.com profile] mckitterick or [livejournal.com profile] nataliesee are available for extended travel dates.

Alas.

It's more "bitchy" a different thing than funny but still incredibly amusing. ;)

I live to provide entertainment for others.

Also, I am TOTALLY funny. For real.

You absoulutely are! (funniest when you're bitchy though!)

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2009-12-04 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
funniest when you're bitchy though

I play to my strengths.

I think you are funny. But then again, I'm think I'm freaking hilarious, but I don't think other people do--they don't get my humor. SO maybe I'm not a good judge of the funny?

Hooray for Fry and Laurie! Love them so much. :-)

Nicely done.

I am eating a sour cream cake doughnut now. I should take a picture of it, but I am at work and my camera is at home. It is not as pretty as the one in the picture, but it tastes good!
