I Apologize for Nothing
I think I'm very funny
Inspired by this excellent tweet:
text: “Pride and Prejudice” is actually the fourth book in the series. The first three are “The Pride and the Prejudice”, “2 Pride 2 Prejudice”, and “Pride and Prejudice: Derbyshire Drift.”
I went a little crazy on twitter, and felt I needed to share my ridiculousness with you all!
First, I followed up with:
This is, in fact, completely true and accurate. Wait till you get to Pride 5, Prejudice 6, Pride and Prejudice 7, The Pr8de of the Pr8judice, and P9: the Pride and Prejudice Saga. And then we get to The Sense and The Sensibility...
Several hours later, inspiration struck while watching videos about the new Prey film:
