[img]smilies/flowers.gif[/img] Welcome to the Lorelai Gilmore Appreciation Thread 112!

The title refers the plethora of pink donned by Lorelai in season 4, and the fact that she looks amazing in any color.

We invite everyone to take advantage of Lauren's growing and dedicated fanbase by taking part in the Lauren Graham Board for more Lauren-centered discussions. There is now a Lauren Graham Appreciation thread very similar to this one there for your enjoyment. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Check out the last thread here

[img]smilies/star.gif[/img] Quote of the Thread

LORELAI: Look who became a soche.
RORY: What?
LORELAI: You have a lot of signatures in here, little girl.
RORY: Everybody signs everybody's yearbook. It's polite.
LORELAI: "Rory, have a great summer. BFF. Amber." Hey, Amber BFF'ed you.
RORY: Yeah, I feel truly blessed.
LORELAI: "Hey, Aurory Borealis." Okay, can't talk to this one ever again. [reads] "You have been my inspiration, my rock, my light. I loved you in South Pacific." When did you do South Pacific?
RORY: What?
LORELAI: Some dipstick named Shauna thinks you were in South Pacific.
RORY: Oh, Shauna tends to get people mixed up.
LORELAI: Oh, okay. Hey, you know what's weird? A lot of the kids in here are calling you a valedictorian. Is that anything like a dirty skank, 'cause if it is I'll kick their plaid butts up and down the sidewalk. Were you named valedictorian?
RORY: Yes, and you know what that means? One more stupid speech that I have to write, that I have no time to write, but nevertheless, I have to write.
LORELAI: Hey, listen, my little Holly Hunter in Broadcast News, I'm gonna let you freak out and study like a mad woman and stress yourself out until finals, but once they're over, we are gonna celebrate big time. . .'cause this is amazing.
RORY: Yeah, it is.
LORELAI: Okay, now go make Mommy nervous.

Post your little hearts out!

thanks for the new thread lex [img]smilies/kiss.gif[/img]

and i like the title [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

A. B. Normal

Thanks!! That took waaaaaaay longer to do than it should have, but oh well, I had fun doing it. And now I'm gonna go to bed since I haven't been to sleep in about 48 hours. Papers suck.

Speaking of school, it's kind of weird, but I miss Lorelai going to her business class. It's not even like we ever even saw her in an actual class or anything, but I miss her saying "Oh, gotta go to class, pizza money's under the rabbi." or whatever.

PS: I love the quote in your sig, the way Melissa McCarthy delivered that line was priceless. [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img]

~Kitty

[img]smilies/wave.gif[/img] I really love that banner.

A. B. Normal

Good! It took a while to find one that had just Lorelai in it and not Lauren Graham stuff. Remind me when we hit like page 7 on this thread to start begging for a banner from one of our fine fanart makers. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Thought I'd post TV Guide's Watercooler here, Lorelai did have a busy week!

~Kitty

[img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] and her week is about to get busier!

Çherié_£u£u

I have a Lorelai Banner, but when I get time I can try to make some more if you guys want something specific post caps or whatever...favorite quote or somethign!

Imzadi

hey cher.. would you like to make me a lauren banner for my sig on another board *pleeeeeeease* *beg*

A. B. Normal

Cher, that's extremely generous of you. I'll PM you later with some ideas, my pleasure. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Oh, if you guys want to entertain yourselves for about 10 minutes straight, analyze the cap from Double Date and the one beneath it, Lor at Jason's. It's oodles of fun noticing every little thing that's changed over 4 years.

Next episode is called: Luke Can See Her Face...hmm, wonder what that's all about. [img]smilies/smirk.gif[/img]

Imzadi

lex i love the pic.. and i wonder if the titel is about lorelai [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

curlyhead

Luke Can See Her Face...hmmm.. I'll bet I know whre the title comes from:

Taylor asks Luke, "Say, Luke, what ever happened to that lawyer of mine, the one you dated?"

Luke: "Actually I think I married her. I can't remember her name, but I can see her face."

A. B. Normal

Ha! *slaps knee*
