Love the title - so much better than my idea : Itchy Pants Plagiariser and the Golden Snatch of Fire.
Although I believe the Kings of Leon are re-releasing "my pants are on fire..."

Excellent thread name!
Whyyyyy is she including books that she hasn’t read or doesn’t remember?! And why is one of them just a story about a guy she dated when she was 14? What was the book about? Should I read it? *sigh*

Re: Beggy Hope Fletcher and the Half-Assed Boundaries Part 21
I'm a slut for book Instagrams (bookstagrams?) but I think I'll pass. Her first review was just Classic 'all about me' Carrie
'On top of that, as a white woman reading this book, it really shone a light on things I never have to think about...'
Okay, actually a kind of valid reason to refer to yourself and your situation but..
'...Things that are on my periphery but things that I've never been the centre of'
Like way to make racism about yourself...
Okay, maybe I'm being OVERLY harsh but this one time wouldn't be an issue if it wasn't everytime. Like, I usually wouldn't pick up on this but this thread has really opened my eyes on how she subtlely inserts herself into everything. She could have used it as an opportunity to talk about the racial injustices the character faces, how well the author handled the topic etc.
Instead she basically said 'this books talks about racism. I know about racism but I don't experience racism' Very insightful comments.
Okay, but also in her defence it's nice she is reading more diversely and not just about cookie-cutter white characters like in her own books.
(nice title, kinda salty about the lack of itchy crotch though)

For those interested in the stats: last thread was 37 days, exactly the same as the one before, but with slightly higher posts per day of 28.08 (vs. 27.62). Surprisingly Carrie hasn't managed to do anything shockingly dense recently (just her usual level of density) which might explain the last two threads being on the slower side.

Love the new title! I was about to chime in with;
Karen
'I dreamed a dream of a washing machine,
When books were bestselling and knickers were clean
But the haters come out at night,
And they tear your self-insert Frozen fanfic apart'

Re: Beggy Hope Fletcher and the Half-Assed Boundaries Part 21
the newest picture with Oliver is cute and he actually looks like he cares about her for once.
I found it funny how she is "I'M SO BUSY ALL THE TIME, I CAN'T DO ANYTHING" as an excuse to not watch Six but has gone and see Oliver a few times on his musical. Someone said the Six tickets are hard to get but almost all the Six actresses follow Carrie, I wouldn't be surprised if she can manage free tickets, she just doesn't want to see the musical.

She and Oliver look really happy on that picture, good for her. Maybe now that her house is finished she can calm down and stop being so aggressive towards everyone and everything

Re: Beggy Hope Fletcher and the Half-Assed Boundaries Part 21
Is it just me that thinks her saying that Oliver “carries the show so seemingly effortlessly” is a dig at the rest of the cast? Don’t you normally describe someone carrying the show if they’re basically doing all the heavy lifting I.e. the rest of the cast are shit?

Nah, I think he's the main character and focus of the show so I don't think it is a dig, just slightly poorly wordedCalabria wrote: ↑Sun Nov 03, 2019 2:25 pmIs it just me that thinks her saying that Oliver “carries the show so seemingly effortlessly” is a dig at the rest of the cast?

God yes. Why did she waste time saying they saw Ratatouille when she could have said literally...anything about the plot

Re: Beggy Hope Fletcher and the Half-Assed Boundaries Part 21
Why won't she say if she didn't like a book? I get that she's not a critic, but the "only love is spoken here" bullshit is getting old. People must be allowed to have opinions.
Re: Beggy Hope Fletcher and the Half-Assed Boundaries Part 21
There is just no in between with her! You either say something nice or, if your opinion is maybe negative, you are a meanie haterCatsandKnitting wrote:Why won't she say if she didn't like a book?

Nice to see a photo of her and Oliver looking close and happy for a change. Despite how irritating I find her, I still wish her a happy, healthy relationship
Re: Beggy Hope Fletcher and the Half-Assed Boundaries Part 21
OMG her Twitter. Zero boundaries whatsoever.
