Him: Okaaay...understandable.
Me: Putting the whole "toddler pageants are creepy and should just go away" argument aside...now there's a picture floating around of a little girl dressed up as Audrey Hepburn's character in "Breakfast at Tiffany's"...and they're all...that's so cute, so classy!
Him: Aaannnddd....
Me: Holly Golightly was basically a prostitute as well. And married.
Him: I did not know that.
Me: I don't know what bothers me more...the hypocrisy of the same people being outraged at one but charmed by the other or the fact that they're charmed and clueless regarding what they're being charmed by.
Him: Um...I've never watched the movie. You do know that, right?
Me: But it's over there in the cabinet...
Him: I'm not saying it doesn't exist in this house, I'm just saying I've never actually watched it.
Me: So we're never going to be able to sing that song to each other, are we?
Him: Please stop.

I'm not sure I "get" Breakfast at Tiffany's. I mean, I understand the storyline well enough, but the supposed charm of the protagonists is lost on me. Maybe you have to be part of a particular generation or have specific life experiences to really appreciate it.
That said, I laughed out loud at the last two lines in this entry. :)
