(this conversation happened right after I showed Nikki pics of Ingrid Bergman, who I have had a crazy obsession with from the age of 12, stealing her out-of-print autobio from the library and such)
Nikki: She's pretty.
Frejya85: ...?
Frejya85: that's ALL?
Frejya85: :p
Nikki: :P
Nikki: I think she looks really straight, and while she's pretty, I'm not hugely attracted to her... If that makes sense?
Nikki: She reminds me too much of a young housewise...
Frejya85: you don't like her because she's straight?
Frejya85: what's a housewise?
Frejya85: Who cares if she's straight, she's a famous early-century movie star, there's no reality here!
Nikki: The traditional 1950's wife. Stays at home, makes dinner, takes care of her man, etc.
Frejya85: It's INGRID BERGMAN.
Frejya85: what don't you understand?
Frejya85: 1950's wife?????
Frejya85: she actually totally eschewed that paradigm and ran off with an Italian film director, abandoning her husband and daughter, and because of that she was blacklisted in Hollywood
Nikki: I have no idea who she is, babe. I don't really know modern stars all that well, much less early-century ones.
Frejya85: I can't believe you're my girlfriend.
Nikki: It's not my fandom, sorry... o.O;
Frejya85: Oh my god, if Ingrid showed an interest in you, you would not say no!!!!!!!
Nikki: *shrugs*
Frejya85: .....INGRID.....BERGMAN...
Frejya85: sigh
