highlights of showing lawrence of arabia to my roommate for the first time while she and @thetimetravelinglady were drunk:

• “this is a dark dirty little room” roommate: “dude you have plenty of light and air stop being a drama queen”
  
• lawrence trips over a table: me: “that’s gay culture”
• roommate: “how did…anyone…think this man was straight”
• laura: keeps making noises at me before the desert husband stuff even happens
• all of us every time ali was on screen: “THIS MAN HAS SWAGGER”
• roommate @ peter o’toole: “i just…really want to touch his hair”
• “YOU HAVE THE WHOLE TENT ALI AND YOU JUST SAT ON TOP OF HIM”
  
• collective groaning whenever racist/imperialist stuff happened
• laura and my roommate discussing the parallels between lawrence & ali and elizabeth & darcy and how they wouldve totally kissed by now
• roommate: “i thought this movie might be subtle about it. THIS IS NOT SUBTLE.”
• whenever ali and lawrence did literally anything: “yeah, that’s straight.”
• roommate: “THIS ISNT EVEN SUBTEXT! THIS IS JUST TEXT!”
• “lawrence you have Problems with authority figures”
  
• the noise we all made when ali tucked lawrence in
• “REID TELL HER ABOUT THE WEDDING ROBES EXPLAIN THE ROBES”
  
• “majid and ali are definitely exes who decided they were better off as friends. they’ve banged in the past for sure tho.”
  
• “i can’t believe lawrence just seduced his way into getting an arab army.”
• the second daud died and my roommate was just “WE’RE DONE! WE’RE DONE FOR THE NIGHT! HAPPY THINGS ONLY! THE MOVIE IS DONE!”
• roommate: “do ali and lawrence end up okay” me: “…well ali…doesn’t…die…….”

and it concluded with my roommate reciting “To S.A.” for us to help her understand how incredibly Not Straight he was.
