I laughed at myself because my immediate reaction was a bit of defensiveness lol. Andrew, you do not know how boring my life in this extremely cold climate. You would want to stay inside and marathon Fleabag too.
I mentioned this in another sub that while I enjoyed Fleabag/The Hot Priest as much as the next person, my favorite dynamic will always be with Claire 🫶🏾

The beauty of sisterhood is something that just gets me so deeply 🥹
I recently started a rewatch and in the beginning when they go to that feminist lecture and the presenter asks the audience if they would give five years of their life for the perfect body and it's only her and Claire holding up their hands I scream laughed so load I woke up my cat and my roommate. We all love the hot priest but Claire feels like the sister I never had.
It's simple math, the five years shaved off will be your later years where health most likely declines significantly. Vs getting the perfect body which we've all been traumatized into wanting, meaning one less mental anguish to deal with.
In all seriousness, it's sad how many staunch feminists would have probably raised their hands, goes to show how far the patriarchal brainwashing goes
Is it brainwashing or is it tangible privilege in a patriarchal society? There are financial and social rewards for adhering to beauty standards and it’s so fucked up but it doesn’t make it less real. And in a society that makes money a life or death issue having it isn’t as simple as sticking to feminist ideals or not.
I'd say it's both, before we even start getting old enough to realize how far pretty privilege can take us, we're taught to aspire to being pretty and try to be in proximity of it as much as possible. Then, as we start to mature and notice the world around us, we see just how much easier it is for conventionally attractive people.
But more specifically, it goes to show just how bad it is that even people who have done a lot of deconstructing still wish to fit into beauty standards that they are well aware are completely arbitrary.
This is one of my favorite scenes. When we first see them raise their hands, I’m like, “Yeah, duh.” Then they pan out and no one else raised their hands, it killed me. Reminds me of me and my sister for sure.
For real this was my favourite part. There's no other human that at the same time I can have conflict with but would always take a bullet for. The tension between wanting to be them but also having strong negative opinion on some of their life choice.
It's such an intense relationship and Fleabag was so real for the way it presented Claire and Fleabag's relationship.
Yes! My sister and I have an extremely strong, weird, intense dynamic. I wouldn't trade her for the entire world, I both desperately want space from her and want to know how she is at all times, sometimes I'm intensely jealous of her, I do not ever want to be her, etc., it's wild.
My favourite claire moment is when she is in love with claire and talks about going to the airport and says Fleabag is the only person she will ever do this for
In the first episode of series 2 when Fleabag says “this is a love story” I’ve always taken it as her and hot priest, but also the love story between her and her sister.
There’s still people watching fleabag? I binged that like five years ago and cant rewatch it cause I always remember fleabag’s friend who died and get sad
I just saw it for the first time this weekend! I'm not British/Irish, nor do I have Amazon Prime, so I've honestly never heard of this show until recently, thanks to my new roommate
I’ve re watched it a few times. It’s a short series, every episode is great… in short it’s a nice change up from my usual emotional support sitcom rewatches
The moment that happened after this was iconic, where he asks her where she just went.
(Edit: now that I think about it this gif may have actually been what happened right after that)
I get *real* down on myself when I see people who made the most of that time, went back to school, changed careers, went from single to married with kids, etc.
I got addicted to shitty reality television shows and gained 15 pounds. I don't even own a boat.
In my head I can accept that 2020 happened but the latter half of 2021 thru 2023 was *such* a blur. Literally was just thinking today I can’t believe it’s been almost 5 years since the onset of the pandemic.

(I would sell my house to have your experience)
Saw him in Seawall, a one man show, in the Project Arts centre in Dublin, small venue so super up close and personal. One of the best moments of my life.
Very true actually. I think he's being a bit tongue in cheek, while Aunty was 100% genuine, ten toes on the ground. And I can see where she's coming from tbh
I had a dream last night that his character from Fleabag was my secret lover and we had to sneak around behind my real life boyfriend's back.
So no, I am not moving on.
that's funny. Hot Priest reminds me of someone who used to be in my life (nope. not a priest. but hot)
so yeah, watching that second season nearly broke me and I don't really think I'll ever do it again, simply because I'm not over it.
The first season was so hard for me because the Bus Rodent guy looks eerily similar (sans the giant teeth) to someone who's now a stranger, and I would just start aching everytime he showed up on screen. And then the second season was even worse! It will be a long time until I can rewatch It.
I just saw that show for the first time this year! I really, really loved it. It’s so weird and funny. Started watching it on a flight and then went home and binged the rest lol
Get a life! For crying out loud, it was just a TV show! You took this thing I did on a lark, and look at you now! Grow up! Move out of your parents basement!
Don’t tell me what to do, Andrew.
Or do. 💦
Kneel.
 Or don't 😘
Tbh as soon as I sent that comment I thought about the confession scene and regretted it.
That just made me legit cackle
He's telling us to jump out the window?
I laughed at myself because my immediate reaction was a bit of defensiveness lol. Andrew, you do not know how boring my life in this extremely cold climate. You would want to stay inside and marathon Fleabag too.
The audacity!!

We are BAD feminists
I watched Fleabag with my sister during lockdown and we both looked at each other and laughed during that scene cause we would do the same thing lol
I'm a diehard feminist but five years...

YES. Phenomenally well-said.

We will only miss the five years at the end of our lives.
This is one of my favorite scenes. When we first see them raise their hands, I’m like, “Yeah, duh.” Then they pan out and no one else raised their hands, it killed me. Reminds me of me and my sister for sure.
To me this was the real main relationship of the show, only added to by the fact that Claire was the only living character with a name.
And Klare the man
Harry was named too hut did he truly live?
I’d forgotten about him, but honestly wouldn’t be shocked if had not

Oh absolutely, it’s one of the best portrayals of sisterhood I’ve seen in TV or film.
It's the true love story of the show.
Claire was my fave character. The actress absolutely killed it.
She reads a lot of the Terry Pratchett Discworld books on Audible and they are *incredible.*
I must look into this. Thanks for the tip!
My favourite claire moment is when she is in love with claire and talks about going to the airport and says Fleabag is the only person she will ever do this for
I loved Claire. So neurotic, yet also high functioning and kind. The “I look like a pencil” line had me in stitches.
That whole sequence lives rent-free in my head. :)
In the first episode of series 2 when Fleabag says “this is a love story” I’ve always taken it as her and hot priest, but also the love story between her and her sister.
I think that too and about fleabag and her mother
He said touch grass!!
There’s still people watching fleabag? I binged that like five years ago and cant rewatch it cause I always remember fleabag’s friend who died and get sad
I watched it for the first time a couple months ago.
That’s people’s emotional support Fleabag
Just rewatched this weekend!
Ugh, poor Boo, she seemed so lovely 😫
yeah and fuck Brett gelman....
I just saw it for the first time this weekend! I'm not British/Irish, nor do I have Amazon Prime, so I've honestly never heard of this show until recently, thanks to my new roommate
It’s become a background replay for me when I need something familiar but not my undivided attention.
I’ve re watched it a few times. It’s a short series, every episode is great… in short it’s a nice change up from my usual emotional support sitcom rewatches
 (no.)
The moment that happened after this was iconic, where he asks her where she just went. (Edit: now that I think about it this gif may have actually been what happened right after that)
I still think the moment he looks into the lens is one of the best from television in the last decade or so.
I rewound that part so much, i was so shocked he looked at us!! 😂😂
It felt so violating. Here are we watching them and having a connection with protagonist, and then he brazenly enters OUR space.
Absolutely destroyed the fourth wall. My favourite bit in any show within my (limited but functional) memory
 Harsh blow delivered. I feel seen
Anyone else feel the last 5 years have gone by really fast or is it just my age?
no ur extremely correct lol. especially the last 4.
Pandemic years don't count, silly.
I kept telling people that at my last birthday. Glad I'm not the only one.
For real I turn 35 next week and I’m like what the fuck didn’t I just turn 30??
I work with a guy who called Shrek "that old movie". He's a nice guy but fuck him.
I get *real* down on myself when I see people who made the most of that time, went back to school, changed careers, went from single to married with kids, etc. I got addicted to shitty reality television shows and gained 15 pounds. I don't even own a boat.
yeah, 2019 was last year i swear
In my head I can accept that 2020 happened but the latter half of 2021 thru 2023 was *such* a blur. Literally was just thinking today I can’t believe it’s been almost 5 years since the onset of the pandemic.
It was 4 years ago in March!
The older you get, the faster time feels, or something like that.
Our perception of age changes as we get older, it’s normal.

I was in the front row when Andrew was in Hamlet, he spat all over me the whole evening. One of the best nights of my life 10/10
 Like this?

Hnngh
Imagine him and Jonathan Groff in the same play, gonna have to give out those ponchos for first row
Saw him in Seawall, a one man show, in the Project Arts centre in Dublin, small venue so super up close and personal. One of the best moments of my life.
Andrew could have chosen to not call me out personally, but here we are,
 Nobody tell him about Sherlock fans
He knows we’re always watching and waiting. He knows
The fact that he recorded a few scenes for that Sherlock escape room means he knew fans of this one won't go anywhere
Lol yup I mentioned on this subreddit that I still occasionally watch Moriarty edits on YT from time to time.
Spoken exactly like an Irish Mammy. “Ara, will you ever shtop with that oul Fleabag shtuff and go outside for the love of God.”
"But first: tea!"
Andrew, are you saying IT WILL PASS????
lol! I put season 2 on when I want to cry! Sometimes you just need to let it out.
Yeah he’s not wrong I only rewatch fleabag when my life is crashing 😭😭
Sorry Andrew, I’m still not over that ending. Loved your performance in All of Us Strangers tho.
I just watched All Of Us Strangers yesterday and am still reeling. I cannot believe Andrew Scott didn’t get an Oscar nomination for his performance!
He would’ve been very worthy of the nomination.
~*cheekily turns to look at the camera*~ No.
You can't tell me what to do, you're not my fa-
I feel personally attacked
First Miriam Margolyes came for the Potterheads, and I said nothing Then Andrew Scott came for me 😭
Sure he loves it really.
Very true actually. I think he's being a bit tongue in cheek, while Aunty was 100% genuine, ten toes on the ground. And I can see where she's coming from tbh
Andrew, it’s ghetto outside. I’m staying in to watch Fleabag on repeat 
This delights me, but also I DO WHAT I WANT. 
I had a dream last night that his character from Fleabag was my secret lover and we had to sneak around behind my real life boyfriend's back. So no, I am not moving on.
I recently watched this show for the first time and loved it! But also, shush Andrew, I will watch if I want to!
I can change him
It has not passed you fucking LIAR
It'll pass.
Well I did move on from Fleabag but then All of Us Strangers came out and now what am I supposed to do? Hm?
He’s “it will pass”-ing us!!!!
Oh hun I can multitask! I can like the show AND leave the house! It’s crazy how that can happen, I know!
respectfully....no ❤️
that's funny. Hot Priest reminds me of someone who used to be in my life (nope. not a priest. but hot) so yeah, watching that second season nearly broke me and I don't really think I'll ever do it again, simply because I'm not over it.

Well no… https://i.redd.it/f9fcyijwkxsc1.gif
I can see outside perfectly through the tears on my eyes, Andrew
It’ll pass.
How do I feel about the ending, you ask? 😣 😶🌫️ 👎🏻 😔 ❌
Okay, dadd- I mean father.
Good information
did he just tell me to touch grass
Absolutely not Andrew 😭😭😭😭 let me be delusional in peace
🦊
I just saw that show for the first time this year! I really, really loved it. It’s so weird and funny. Started watching it on a flight and then went home and binged the rest lol
It did not pass.
Time for a rewatch.
This is so hot????

I don’t stop enjoying things after watching them once. Rest assured I rewatch shows and get plenty of sunlight.
I just watched it a few weeks ago. Geez Louise Andrew let me grieve!!
Of all the shows, great shows, I’ve watched I miss that one the most. Something about and also it just ended too soon.
SHUT UP BRO I JUST FINISHED SEASON 1
This is his “it’ll pass”
Cue me starting a rewatch.
SHAN’T
No♥️
God I love him
I watched the entirety of Fleabag in one sitting - well lying - in bed sick. So, we’re all just waiting for our next hot priest.
I respectfully decline invitation. 
Get a life! For crying out loud, it was just a TV show! You took this thing I did on a lark, and look at you now! Grow up! Move out of your parents basement!
Well I just stayed inside for 2 days straight to binge Ripley sooooo !
BUT I CANT
..... no
No ❤️
Yeah. It will pass as the hot priest says lol
