The poor kid is going to be Guliana Gorilla on the playground. What were you thinking, Elle?!!Fisherman: Jewel-ee-anna
Elle: Guu-eee-le-aa-ana (in Italian accent)
Ginette: Zee-zee
Everyone else: Gigi
How is there a difference? Mother and daughter are practically twins. Also, was there a racial hierarchy implied in her statement? Like, I am whiter so better? She has no friends of color, which in my book makes her uninteresting. She lacks curiosity and interest to explore the social life of the multicultural cities she lives in.Also wasn’t it Elle who condescendingly described her mother looking too “Mediterranean” while Elle liked to assume she was more white European looking?!Since when did Elle embrace being Italian more than French?!
That’s despicable if she equates being “whiter” than her “mediterranean” mother via her “supposedly French” father as superior. Newsflash Elle- you were born out of wedlock so by your own outdated, backward standards, you would have been shunned by society. How dare she put down the parent who actually stuck by herUSER=111915 said:@boredstrom[/USER], Also wasn’t it Elle who condescendingly described her mother looking too “Mediterranean” while Elle liked to assume she was more white European looking?!Since when did Elle embrace being Italian more than French?!
Her mother is just your average white boomer though? I've never thought she looked Mediterranean, at all.That’s despicable if she equates being “whiter” than her “mediterranean” mother via her “supposedly French” father as superior.

It’s THIS!!! What is a pic of Smelle without her smugness!? Maybe childbirth humbled her??She is missing the smug look in her eyes I’ve come to expect.
Nah, I think she is just saying "What the heck have I done? The shit got real." in her head.It’s THIS!!! What is a pic of Smelle without her smugness!? Maybe childbirth humbled her??
I'm not sure anything will get real for Elle until the dark sad day that Mama G tells her the bank account is empty.Nah, I think she is just saying "What the heck have I done? The shit got real." in her head.
Yes, it is about a young woman being groomed to be a courtesan. Leslie Caron, who plays Gigi in the film, is lovely and talented, but the movie is rather cringeworthy. It opens with an elderly man singing the song, "Thank Heaven for Little Girls", while ogling girls and young women in a park. If Elle is even aware of this film, she probably thinks it is awesome.Not sure why this didn't occur to me before, but isn't that terrible book/movie Gigi about a 16 year old girl who is being groomed by her crazy aunts to chase and lock down wealthy men in Paris?
Oh Elle . . .
Considering her reaction to previous events, nothing gets through to this woman. Like when Rick dumped her, she popped up in Seattle and was excited to start anew. No mention or reflection on ditching her career and entire life to marry a man she'd known five months. She acted like it's something we've all been through! She was straight onto the next girlboss move (finish inside me/luxury Airbnb on mom's dime). Now she has a baby and husband and in her mind it's the perfect life. Yet she's unemployed, has no career prospects, he's a crazy conservative (maybe), she has no friends and they rely on her mother for money.I'm not sure anything will get real for Elle until the dark sad day that Mama G tells her the bank account is empty.
Someday it will and sooner than later. Heck even the Vanderbilts ran out of money within 3 generations or so. If you only spend and don't invest and you don't have a cash generating company, you can't have generational wealth.I'm not sure anything will get real for Elle until the dark sad day that Mama G tells her the bank account is empty.
Elle doesn't seem to get that she's not fit to be a lawyer but never worked consistently at any job. Any job and career needs dedication and effort.Yet she's unemployed, has no career prospects, he's a crazy conservative (maybe), she has no friends and they rely on her mother for money.
"Swift Clip" Gigi.Even in her birth announcement post, she had to emphasize how the baby arrived "swiftly."
Saying a baby arrived swiftly makes it seem it just slid out and right into the doctor’s arms. What a strange choice of words for an equally strange visual."Swift Clip" Gigi.
It’s strange terminology to use. I think she is trying to imply the baby came early without actually saying it since it’s a lie. We have all speculated she lied about her due date being later.Saying a baby arrived swiftly makes it seem it just slid out and right into the doctor’s arms.

My money is on this!It’s strange terminology to use. I think she is trying to imply the baby came early without actually saying it since it’s a lie. We have all speculated she lied about her due date being later.
Right!! I am picturing lil' Gigi shooting out and onto the floor of the Alfa Romeo as Fishy is driving them to the hospital.Saying a baby arrived swiftly makes it seem it just slid out and right into the doctor’s arms. What a strange choice of words for an equally strange visual.
Oh, interesting! I interpreted it as an easy deliveryMy money is on this!
