Perfect description of Gris Dior. Every girl should be gifted a bottle! According to the salesman in the Chicago boutique, many are. It's their most popular gifted fragrance. Also, yes to Jack Baker Thorpe pointing out Hugh Grant's transformation. That incident with the prostitute probably had a lot to do with that?

Thanks. Great to know that. I was in that Play in college.

Jack, congratulations on finding great love! ❤️ A success for a romantic at heart!

Oh Jack you're right, Oscar Wilde wasn't some epigram-spouting teddy bear. Dorian Gray and Salome ARE terrifying.

Kitty Lunacy

Also WTF is up with the ex-gay crap?! It needs to be OVER! 💯

Been an atheist for 18 years, and it's true that if you don't find a good, strong anchor, it can get replaced by fucked-up ideologies (SEE: Communism) "Polyamorous epic atheists" 🤣🔥

I loved this episode so much! And congratulations to Jack’s mother for all her success, and Jack too for finding love!

I LOVE Jack and Jack episodes! They’re always so delightful. Caught Lair of the White Worm on Tubi and absolutely loved it. I agree with Jack, young Hugh Grant was a beautiful, perfect man. I can’t believe his cinematic ‘comeback’ was the dreadful ‘Heretic.’ 🙄 So happy that Jack has found inspiration, a spark of joy and creativity, and LOVE ❤️✨

Wow great episode. Very fun! Agree that ex-gay isn’t a thing.

The VHS sleeve for Lair of the White Worm haunted me as a child.

Seems like Gothic was based on the 1984 play Bloody Poetry but with sex, and drugs added. I randomly saw that play now need to see this. Thanks Frankfurter :)

Thank you for reclaiming ken Russell from oomfiedom, he'll be safe for another year and a half or so until your opinions are safe to copy.

Declutter and bless buyers. Twice the blessings. Many thanks for the reminder.

Love the idea of full theater/drag makeup will discussing these. ❤️ EDIT: I also have 80 or so bottles of perfume. 🥹 84 now I think. ❤️

Kitty Lunacy

One minute in and Salome is mentioned and my brain is like, "This Is A Banger!" EDIT: I love "Salome." Was supposed to be her (complete with SFX John the Baptist severed head) in my yearbook photo for law school but due to time & budget constraints I decided to dress up as a dominatrix instead.

The guy who plays Oscar Wilde was also in the brideshead revisited series which I hope you cover someday!
