Fate rules us all, hmm? Gee, do you suppose Ms. Fitzpatrick used to be under the impression that she was married to Gerard Butler?
This bizarre fascination with pool that Mrs. Parnell has makes me think of the Cast sisters and their weird anti-pot fetish.
I suppose I can forgive Ms. Fitzpatrick for wanting to poke fun at and satirize the idea way many that some mothers blow the actions of young girls boyfriends way out of proportion, thinking that playing pool in your parents basement + rap music = drug dealer, if that's what she was doing. If I were her, I would use this as evidence to back up my "I didn't intend for these characters to be role models" statement. I don't think that's what it is, however. There's a... mean-spiritedness to all this that turns it from a deconstructive parody to a Meyer-esque "Take that!", and the way she keeps harping on how dumb and ugly and Clearly Evil Mrs. Parnell is does not make me want to look kindly on her.
