We Need To Talk About THAT Lenny Bruce Episode In Season 3 Of Marvelous Mrs. Maisel

Amazon Prime released season 3 of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and of course, after waiting a year because I binged season 2 last December, I binged the entire season 3 in a weekend, despite having finals.

Sooo... Let's talk about that episode. You know, episode 03x05. You know, the episode where Lenny Bruce comes and visits Midge at her show in Florida. And then they spend the entire night together. And he looks at her like that.

Let me just say, I want nothing more than-- and I cannot say this enough-- for someone to look at me the way Lenny looks at Midge.

There are not gifs made yet of those scenes, which is illegal because I want them now, so I'm going to just have to explain them.

He sends her those flowers, which, Lenny Bruce does not seem like the type of guy to send a girl flowers unless he really cares about her. And then Abe stands up to him and goes to jail with him, and then bails him out. It has nothing to do Midge, but it was sweet anyway.

He may be living in Florida, but he came to see Midge perform at her show, which is super sweet. And then he invites her out to dinner, but not before going to that Miami After Dark thing. To be completely honest, with a show called "Miami After Dark," I did not think it was just a talk show. I sincerely thought Lenny had brought Midge to a show that was going to take... a different turn. But then Lenny brings Midge on and they do a husband and wife schtick and it's the cutest darn thing!

And then... And then. Dinner. The scene opens with that weird-ass performance but the real performance is Lenny and Midge staring at each other, mentally undressing one another and having sex with their eyes. I melted. And then they dance and it's all sensual and sexy.

And when he took her back to his apartment hotel room, I really thought they were going to do it. I thought, finally, after three seasons, they were going to kiss or even more! And then nothing! I'm made! I can't be the only one who's mad! Midge gave up Benjamin and then she passed on Lenny Bruce? I get the whole independent woman thing, but a girl must have needs!

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way.

Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
