  1. Turn to the left...

    After lying in bed this morning looking at all the fashion expressions attendees wore at this year's Met Gala, Mrs Miasma and I have decided to give it a miss again next year.

    * Was Madonna trying to manifest the spirit of main character syndrome?

    ** Shout out to Rihanna and her interpretation of a drain clog.

  2. JESUS CHRIST.

    "Down on your knees, polishing…"

    And BLESS HER HEART Tracy Lord (Grace Kelly) thinks he's still talking about the BOAT…

    AS DID I UNTIL THIS UMPTEENTH VIEWING. 😳💀😆😆😆

  3. The songs from High Society are SUCH a mixed bag.

    Louis Armstrong makes everything he touches gold.

    Frank's two ballads, "You're Sensational" and "Mind If I Make Love To You" are insufferably insipid, and frankly I don't know how the second got past the Hays Code.

    "True Love" has an exquisitely delicious melody, but the lyrics are saccharine and meh.

    "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" puts a grin on your face, and "Did You Ever" is unquestionably the show-stopper.

    "Now You Have (Has?) Jazz" is an ACTUAL BOP and Bing is adorably fun but also impossibly square.

  4. @NatureMC Dazu gibt unsere #Wortgeschichte folgende Auskunft: "Im Zusammenhang mit der Frage nach mögl. lexikalischen Ablösungsprozessen, die zu einem Rückgang von #Hautevolee geführt haben, ist [...] auf #HighSociety hinzuweisen. [...] #HighSociety ist aber wohl letzten Endes auch deshalb erfolgreicher, weil Anglizismen [...] seit der Mitte des 20. Jh. deutlich an sprachlichem Prestige gewinnen. Gleichwohl ist festzuhalten, dass #Hautevolee auch noch nach der Jahrtausendwende bezeugt ist." 🙂

  5. My wife and I are moving to a new apartment and it has two toilets. > 15 years I've lived in this city and this is the first time I've had two toilets. Two toilets!

  6. #KiWo Wenn ich so auf #Instagram schauen, haben derzeit die Politiker:innenfotos auf mich überwiegend einen Vibe von #HighSociety . Die ganzen Einladungen, die da angenommen werden, erinnerte mich an das, was ich 2010 gechrieben hatte: kielkontrovers.com/archiv/2010

    Und daran, dass ich noch mal vom #OKKIel das Video besorgen wollte. #obkiel #kiel #KielerWoche

  7. FYI #highsociety Fortunate man is banished from the 'other' #Social (?) Mejah channels mentioned. I post just in case you missed the connection between the world of high tarts, #fashion ? , #fluencers (who dey?) , other #grifters and #greed #avarice #virtue #signalling in it's gross pomposity. Bloody hell Palky, that was a long sentence and no swearing!

  8. The film just hit the iconic "who wants to be a millionaire" song sequence, and it suddenly struck me that nearly seven decades on since the movie, if it were being filmed today they'd have to update it to billionaires.

    "Who wants to be a billionaire? I don't! Put colonies on Mars and ruin Twitter? I don't..." 🎵

  9. "End of the song, start of the story..."

    This evening's viewing distraction: some classic musical fun with High Society. Bing Crosby, Satchmo, Sinatra, and the goddess that is Grace Kelly.

  10. @ronsboy67 It really picks up with the plot twists at episode 32. Before it is quite slow and predictable but I kept watching it because of the over-dramatic acting & script.

    #Uee is excellent in #HighSociety too

  11. ⚠️DISCOVERY⚠️High Society is a new international organization formed on #Telegram. Translation is in the 3rd snap. They claim they are going after the heads of NATO members and Europeans.

  12. @jane23c Exactly my thoughts on #Stranger ! It clearly misses something without romance, but I hear a season 2 is coming out.

    Have you already watched #MisaengIncompleteLife ? It's an office drama without romance and with a few detective sub-plots. Not too much violence (mainly psychological).

    If you're in the mood for a good romance then #CoffeePrince or #HighSociety are great too among the old ones.

  13. Spending a few semiproductive hrs doing some Christmas decorating with #TCM. Adore #HighSociety. Outstanding cast and a fun remake of beloved #PhiladelphiaStory. I want to look, speak, move like #GraceKelly (want her whole wardrobe) but I want the wit and brilliance of #CelesteHolm. #TCM
