Regency Dating Reality Show? WHY WAS I NOT INFORMED OF THIS!?
Anyone see Regency House Party? I have to admit I’ve seen it about 10 times. I’m ashamed to say that this old school hetero courtship is somehow comforting—like leave me the hell out of it, but it’s sure fun to watch! If you want to watch some depressing shit, find Manor House. Wow SO sad. Playlist for Regency House Party: http://www.youtube.com/user/affectiveideologeme#p/c/A41E10951CB748DD/0/xgZlGrTbZHg

____“I am sorry for the Beaches’ loss of their little girl, especially as it is the one most like me.” - Jane Austen
further proof that Jane Austen was not as prim and proper as many like to think. although apparently, this biting humor about death was not uncommon at the time. most likely because infant death was not uncommon either. gotta deal with that shit somehow.
