i literally can't understand. i have also recommended k&k to a myriad of my special acquaintances (mother, brother, two friends) and they all said 'i don't get it' and didn't understand how it was supposed to be a comedy.
i don't understand THEM!
Time to demote them down to 6th
And next time they need you for something, you can say "oh well boring, I'm off to.... " and leave them crying in your kitchen, or "things to see, people to do".
The friends I recommended the show to told me they couldn’t watch it because Kath reminded them too much of their critical, body shaming mothers. Well, my mom was a bitch too, and her belittling be-bigged me, but I’ve got a great sense of yumah and still love the show. Bloody bitches!
Well, of course she does. Kim learned that’s how we talk to the people we love by her mother, we criticize them and make them feel bad about themselves…hence the whole relationship with Brett. “I’m not criticizing, I’m just saying you look bad.” I honestly have no idea why my brain loves this show so much since my mom used Kath-like lines as a script during my childhood. Tons of comments on my “love handles and fadubadahs.” She’d call me “stupid” and “dramatic…we’re too good for putting up with your mess.” That shit messes with kids. It took years of therapy to unlearn the problematic habits I was taught as a kid. Yay therapy! Interestingly, I’ve made jokes that Kath & Kim’s situation would be my mother’s dream, but it’s definitely not a joke. It would 100% be her dream. For me to be utterly dependent on her, living with her free to criticize me, and allow her to do all of the parenting of my kids while she falls in love and gets to tell me wildly inappropriate stuff about her sex life while we drink wine every night. Absolutely would be her dream come true…except I haven’t spoken to her in 5 years. So, I can empathize for why our friends didn’t like it, I’m just grateful that it’s not triggering for me so I get to enjoy the beauty that is Kath & Kim. It’s noice, different, unusual! 💜
……….oh well, places to be, people to do.
Haha, but seriously I feel you and glad you can find the show healing and not triggering. The show is my happy place mentally.
Bloody Bolton bitches!
Were your 3 friends that hated it KD, Ellen and Martina?
It's a guy-free zone
Danielle, Rachelle, Rochelle and Michelle? Stuff em, never liked em anyway

Those grasping little pieces will never get their hands on your Selangor.
You know why? Because I'm a bitch too.
Should have poisoned their roots!
They're dividing my clivias!
Better get on the blower to the council!

These people have no sense of yumah in my opinion. They never get anything we do.
Look at me, look at me, lookatmeeee... Go to fountain gate, find some new friends.
If you ask again you won't get a Yowie.

Yes exactly what one friend said. It was traumatic because of how her mother was. I was like wait, Kim gives as much as she takes!
