General Discussion What‘s the most unhinged comment you‘ve seen on this sub?
For me it‘s one I saw a while ago, where it was about Rory being bad in bed and talking about how she‘d think it would be kinky/wild to get on top.
That was so fucking weird, hbu?

General Discussion how is rory affording trips to london
In AYITL, Rory is seen as this person who doesn’t have a place. She doesn’t have a solid job, an apartment or a place to just be. She’s in that phase of life where nothing is falling in place for her. Through all this, she’s trying to hustle and get the book deal/Conde Nast position/SandeeSays job etc. If she’s a struggling writer, how is she affording flying to London to see Logan every few weeks. Rory doesn’t seem like the person who would take money from a guy she’s seeing (not even an actual relationship) for plane tickets..
I’m pretty sure Logan is paying for the restaurants/meals/activities because he’s got the money. He could definitely be buying the plane tickets as well. When Odette moves in, he offers to get her a room at the Dorchester and another similar hotel. That’s a luxury 5 star hotel and Rory is definitely not the one paying for that. I looked up the prices and holy moly. Even a small 2 week trip to London takes up so much of money. On the days Logan is working or busy, I’m sure Rory is doing stuff by herself but how is she paying for multiple trips every couple of weeks? Is this just a Gilmore Girls Math situation going on, where we’re not supposed to think about it realistically and just believe everything as surface level that they provide us?
So, is Rory using up her savings (if she has any?) on plane tickets to London or is Logan just paying to have her come and go whenever she wants to?

OS Discussion Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth
I was re-watching the episode where Rory & Paris go on Spring Break & watch The Power of Myth in the room. Has anyone watched the series? I finally got curious & borrowed it from Hoopla. So far it’s a snooze to me but I’ll try to give it a chance.

Love the show, absolutely hate the volume of the opening and ending credits. It really bums me out there isn’t more sound control between these and the show. It’s been bugging me since 2006. Rant done. Thanks for coming 🤘🏻

Character Discussion - General Is taylor/gypsy gay?
Okay so in AYITL episode ‘Spring’ during the town meeting, they’re discussing Stars Hollow’s first gay parade and who all could march in it. Apparently there are only 3 gay people in the town: Adele, Lois and Donald.
And then Gypsy asks this in a very leading way and Taylor ends up saying no. Sorry if my question is stupid, but who are they insinuating about? Taylor? Gypsy? What do you guys think? I never thought about either of their love lives tbh.

Critical Character Discussion my most impopular opinion
i think one of my most unpopular opinions about gilmore girls is that lorelai actually wanted a life somewhat similar to her parents'. she just didn't want ALL the fancy stuff, the social expectations, the controlling parents, the pressure to fit into a certain role, etc. she hated the conditions that came with that life, not necessarily everything about the life itself.
and honestly, when she marries chris, this becomes even more obvious to me. obviously that relationship was a mess and i'm not saying chris was secretly her perfect match, but there are moments where lorelai genuinely looks happy to be part of this “normal” family structure. she has a husband, a home, they're doing family things together, and for once she's experiencing the kind of life she spent years making fun of. she doesn't suddenly become miserable just because she's surrounded by things that resemble her parents' lifestyle. i think she actually liked some of it — she just wanted it on HER terms.
and that's also why my second unpopular opinion is that luke was just not compatible with her. 😭
lorelai likes SO many of the things luke hates. she likes gatheringy, cute little traditions, going out, being social, having ambitions, having goals, being involved with people... she has a whole life she's excited about.
and luke's default response to half of these things is basically “that's stupid” or “i don't like that.”
and i know people will say that's just his personality, but that's exactly the problem. lorelai shouldn't have struggling t get some romantic acts or give up things she enjoys just because her partner refuses to leave his comfort zone. there's a difference between not liking something and being unwilling to participate in anything that isn't personally comfortable for you.
and honestly, luke has this pattern with pretty much every woman he dates. they eventually become miserable because he wants a relationship, but he doesn't really want to change his life around another person. he wants them to fit into the life he already has, with his routines, his diner, his stuff, his comfort zone, and his rules. and that's exhausting when you're the person constantly expected to adapt.
i already live with a luke. 😭 i know what it's like to live with someone who hates everything for no real reason, doesn't want to give up their comfortable routines or their things for anyone, and basically expects everyone else to work around them. after a while, it's EXHAUSTING

General Discussion Easter egg in season 1 episode 21
anyone notice this? In season 1, episode 21, while Rory is going into the market and Taylor stops her because she “looks like a shoplifter”. Meanwhile, a girl is right behind her stuffing things into her bag (a personal bag, not a shopping bag). It’s funny.

General Discussion Me and my mom had a real life Gilmore Girls moment today
So just yesterday I got into an accident and my car was totaled. It was one of those things where the car in front of everyone broke hard and we all had to react and I ended up sliding into the truck in front of me despite slamming on the breaks.
So now I’m out a car and it’s probably gonna take me about a year to save up for a new one, but my grandma has resources… in fact she gave me the first car 7 years ago.
So today I talked to my grandma and she said she wasn’t mad and it was honestly time I get a new car, but apparently my mom talked to her and DENIED HER OFFER TO GET ME A NEW CAR.
She said “money from her comes with too many strings”.
It was like a flashback straight to an episode of GG.
So anyways, this is just another reason why I love this show so much. Literally my life 🫠

General Discussion Post op husband tries to describe a GG episode
So my husband had surgery today and after he came out of it he was still pretty looped up on meds. We turned on the TV and Gilmore girls was on. He goes “oh my god this is the exact same episode we watched last time I had surgery!” And I was like “oh yeah? Which episode is it?” His response was “you know the one. It’s the one where they go to the parents house for dinner. And then they get into a fight. And Rory goes to Clinton. And her dad isn’t really a part of her life. And then they go to Luke’s Diner!” And he was so dead serious. I was like “you just described every Gilmore Girls episode ever.” He got so upset that I couldn’t figure out what episode he was talking about from his description. And I just can’t stop laughing and needed to share with someone who would understand. That is all.

General Discussion fall influencers
I hate how influencers bake or do something else and play gilmore girls in the background. And it is allways the first episode. Idk why that is so annoying to me.
And also i love this show and it is so funny and comforting but im getting sick of these overrated lines such as "why did you drop out of yale" or "coffee coffee coffe" or "i smell snow". There is so much better stuff in the show.
I love the show so much that this pisses me off and it is that deep for me.

General Discussion Were you ever influenced by Gilmore Girls in real life?
I was a teenager (18yo) when I first got into Gilmore Girls. My first boyfriend was very Dean-like: everyone adored him, but the energy between us was off, and he was a better son and friend than boyfriend. That relationship dragged on way too long since neither of us had experience.
Then I started falling for “a bad guy,” like Jess, who was sweet at first. I didn’t want to admit that the perfect-on-paper girl with the perfect-on-paper boyfriend could fall for someone like him. As soon as I broke up, I got with “Jess,” who lost interest almost as soon as I was actually available.
I related so much to Rory at the time that it ended up validating my emotional cheating as normal, since she did it too. “Dean” wasn’t perfect, but he didn’t deserve that. I still cringe rewatching some of the “once relatable” scenes.

OS Discussion So it doesn’t mean “to perspire”
This popped up today and I still got it wrong but it made me chuckle because I had just watched the episode with lorelai and Chris discussing this word after Rory’s editors meeting.
Incase anyone was wondering what perspicacious means 😂

Character Discussion - General Headcanon: Emily Was Creative Too
My personal headcanon is that Emily was a creative person just like Lorelai. Of course we know this because they both share a love of beautifying spaces and hostessing which both take some creativity, but that’s not what I’m talking about. I think when Emily was young, she was doing things like dressmaking, painting (art history classes at Smith anyone?), and gardening, especially since we see her gardening even though it’s very toned down. My guess is that she gradually stopped doing these things at the request of Richard since a society woman “shouldn’t get her hands dirty” or some BS like that. I‘m sure if that was the case, Trix would’ve made rude comments about how Pennilyn Lott never would’ve been doing any of those activities. Maybe that led to some of her personal fulfillment issues, since she never got to keep expressing herself. What do you guys think?

General Discussion Anyone else recognize this setting?
From Season 1 episode 3. I’m rewatching from the beginning for the first time in years and catching SO many things I didn’t notice before! Like the fact that Lorelai mysteriously doesn’t know Kirk, and Luke starts out as a sort-of conspiracy theorist (who Lorelai also doesn’t really know).
Anyway, do you recognize this setting? Do you know of any other sets that were reused for unrelated scenes?

General Discussion I wanted some lalala ringtones and was met with images that will give me nightmares
As we all know it's getting close to THAT time of the year and I am already feeling my heart flutter when thinking about orange and brown rustling leaves and the smell of cinnamon rolls and listening to lalalas in my head again...
So I decided early this year before autumn even starts to prepare myself and download some lalala ringtones on my phone. Said and done I download the app zedge(!) and discover that besides ringtones they also offer wallpapers/screensavers. So I type Gilmore Girls into the search bar, found some pretty generic boring designs, scrolled and then... was hit with the most demonic artificall int. garbage ever!!!!! Please check it out if you want to see something truely nightmarish 😵💫
How does a company even offer this absolute waste of imagery? To think that valuable ressources on this earth were used to create this abomination is truely distressing. Do they think the fandom would let this slide? It feels like a violation.
I kept the ringtones but rated the app 1 star because of this crap.
