Remember Princeton Mom? We love the Princeton Mom, Susan Patton! She's that delightfully deluded anger lady that shamesplained to all the women about how college is a time for meeting men, not for book learning, and how you should stop waiting for that promotion at work and start making eyes at your handsome man boss. Of course she's a living breathing made-for-Fox-TV movie, so
In Walter Lord&#039;s &quot;A Night to Remember&quot; about the sinking of the Titanic, he described a husband and wife at the lifeboats. Of course there is only room for her. She refuses to leave her husband. He tells her (as I recall from the book) &quot;When we took our marriage vows, <i>I never thought I&#039;d ask you to obey me</i>. But I&#039;m saying it now. Get in the boat.&quot;
Based on this sample of one couple, a hundred years ago obedience was still a wife&#039;s duty. And at the same time, it was ignored (except on a sinking ship).
The kindly old widow who lives next door hasn&#039;t even so much as dated a man since her husband died 25 years ago. She&#039;s always claimed it was because she could never find another man as wonderful and decent and perfect as her husband, but now we know it&#039;s just because she&#039;s old.
When I started dating the future Mr. PsycWench (whom I&#039;d known for a year or so), I was smitten enough to actually do some of the things on her list...after a couple of weeks he asked me to cool it.
I enjoyed my university years, but have never understood this fetish-izing of the alma mater. When I&#039;m bored and hit up a page of Pinterest DIY, there are inevitably cakes, wedding decorations, etc etc with college colours as the theme. And then there&#039;s the sorority pins! People actually take this shit seriously. (OT, but there are also weapon pins starting to creep into the Hobbies and Crafts category- WTF, Pinterest? It&#039;s disconcerting to run across a picture of a cool AK47 or a nice Colt holster when what I really want is new ways to paint furniture) Anyway, about the college crap- if you are still defining yourself by where you spent 4 years of your young adulthood, UR DOING IT WRONG.
Incorrigible, too.
If you ever saw palmetto you&#039;d understand.
I always thought it was a porno.
He asked her to cool it, so ... prolly nothing all that interesting.
Umm . . . &quot;Linz&quot;?
She needs a swift kick in the Anise.
It&#039;s the entire basis for her sole claim to superiority. Remember, she thinks you&#039;re nothing if you&#039;re not an ivy grad.
No, nothing that interesting. I think there was a general &quot;don&#039;t go changing to try to please me&quot; speech.

That is one brutally ugly tie.
Ma Duggar?
It is songs like this that made the 80&#039;s great.

Fortunately, we have <i>Mad Men</i>, showing everyone what Patton&#039;s world really looks like.
