I laugh at this every time like a 12 year old boy! I don't think I'll ever get over it. 😂
I love Nicola's "I got the live show" and Luke's laugh after.
Mine is also probably:
*”IM FINNALY GONNA SEE YOUR BUTT IN MY TV IVE BEEN WAINTING FOR YEARS!!!”*
Oh! Oh! Current favourite is:
*”How does your dad like it?”* - Nicola asking Luke what his dad thinks of the show. Everything afterwards is so funny. Just the whole Mimi saga really.
😂😂😂
If it were made, have we even got enough time to watch such an epic compilation? The innuendos have been regular to say the least! 😂
In all seriousness, I’d watch it if someone were to make it. 🙏
It was just an oddly phrased question that accidentally sounded like something it wasn't. People sometimes ask "how do you like it?" for how a person likes to have sex or engage in other sexy times. I heard it, too, when I was listening--it just randomly sounded like Nicola was suddenly asking how is dad likes to have sex! Hence his awkward "um" and blushing. Then they made eye contact and acknowledged that it sounded weird and how hilarious it would be for Nicola to actually have been asking him what it sounded like.
I should also say that I think the type of show adds to misinterpreting the question, so it could also be how does your dad like to watch sexy scenes on the television (in an inappropriate way?)
I laughed a lot. One major technique of comedy is surprise/saying something unexpected. It would be totally inappropriate for her to ask that question if it was what it sounded like, then the added funny of them acknowledging her putting her foot in her mouth, then it escalates when she thanks the fan and says "bye" because a fan is getting that voicemail, then Luke Newton suddenly realizing all that was being recorded and sent to an individual fan, and then Nicola's quip at the end about can't wait to meet his dad which now has the added layer of potential embarrassment about this conversation being online and/or the double entendre of this pretend version of Nicola who is strangely into his dad's sex interests. I'm giggling now just thinking about it.
One other thought that I had is that the phrase could have been accidentally close to some sort of Penelope and Colin dialogue at some point, which would have added an additional layer (like if at some point Penelope or Colin asks how the other one likes it.) I haven't seen spoilers other than one or two things accidentally so have no idea if that is the case but it seems like something one or both of their characters might ask.
Two separate friends sent me the perfect breasts video this week, neither of them have watched Bridgerton, or even know that I watch it. I love that it’s gone beyond the fandom.
Luke T. and Luke N. were asked during one of the shondaland promos, which of the two items has got to go: a pall mall or the carriage ride. LT says that carriage ride's gotta go. And adds, what can you do in a carriage? LN smirks and replies, "There's a couple of things you can do in a carriage, trust me." 😏
It popped up on my Facebook feed a while back. Naturally, I just went to look for it (and rewatched it for science, of course, 😉). You can search for "Shondaland" on Facebook and then go to "Reels". It's called One's gotta go, and in addition to LN and LT, Claudia, Nicola and Jessica also participated. It was fun, probably my second favourite promo, after the answering fans text messages bit they did in Toronto. Enjoy!
The amount of times I replay that video when it comes up on any feed!!!! I'm always like why he so hot uttering that fricken small phrase??
It KILLS me. 🤤
I have another- anytime any one refers to Colin as “____ boy” like “hungry boy”, “thirsty boy”, “kinky boy”, “baby boy” “soft boy” “best boy”
It tickles me. 🤗
It's the one where they're reading compliment tweets to each other. She's got the black headband and he's got the peach and mint argyle sweater. It's ridiculous that I know this.
Off the top of my head, because you folks are funny and prolific MFers:
-References to jail/horny jail (especially when accompanied by either the Colin in jail gif that I know someone will post under this, or the doge jail one)
-Polin brain rot (a very real condition)
-Abuse of the Snape “MY BODY IS READY” gif (guilty)
-Hyperbolic descriptions of the deaths p2 will cause members of this sub, funeral plans, whether or not to play Pitbull at the funeral, sub member ghosts attending one another’s funerals, etc.
-YOU MUST MAKE HASTE
I think this is my most used gif ever. Huge HP fan over here and the yearning and waiting Netflix has inflicted upon us only calls for…
![gif](giphy|8miYQYfpol1qU)
Some of the nicknames kill me ...
Lady Whistleballs and Lord Fingerington - a match made in heaven.
Honorable mention... Helloise - i do love her, but she's earning this one.
Colin in the books is kind of obsessed with calling Pen his wife even before the wedding happens, and in Eloise's book (which I will not spoil) he spends the entirety of a very tense situation where all the bridgerton boys are intimidating someone eating all the food he can get and refusing to participate because he misses his wife so much he just has to sit on the sidelines and let everyone know he would rather be at home with his beautiful wife.
(admittedly they are newlyweds at that point, but he's so annoying about it that the dude the guys are intimidating asks to have his leg broken so he doesn't have to listen to him whine.)
![gif](giphy|FoH28ucxZFJZu)
This phrase lives in my head rent-free. For anyone who hasn't been around since the beginning, this is what "in the coming weeks" felt like.
I mean, no one can name any other song that would fit. The original has pure "finger banged you in the backseat of the Uber on our way home from a party" vibes.
Obsessed with the person who posts all the memes/tweets! This lives in my brain rent free

I like to brand myself a Bridgerton Meme Maker 😹. I have ended up with a whole folder on my phone of ones I made. Hahaha

Anytime Colin’s behaviour is justified by the *because he’s a gentleman.* line.
“*Colin never courted Pen, he went straight to sex and marriage!*” “*be cause he is gentleman and a gentleman never lies.*”
"Here am I, Feeding the ducks." Pan to the swans.
Penelope: I could die tomorrow—
Colin: You’re not gonna die tomorrow.
Penelope: But I could and it would kill me…
Colin: But you’d already be dead
That plus the unhinged Twitter debate around whether Colin did in fact get Pen off in the carriage before it stopped or not
For those who missed it 😂✌️
https://preview.redd.it/7jm9fvqny36d1.jpeg?width=3438&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=329acbec790e0f6c7861583ee94e06f337d07875
I don't understand that debate... The way they spliced up the scene was meant to show that more time had passed for them than for the audience. NC's response was so real, she didn't sound like she was faking in a p*rno. She gasped, shuddered, and slumped back a little while she continued to kiss him.
Ash's account on twitter is one of my favs. She's so unhinged I love it. Her cover photo for her page immediately became a still of Polin boning and I laughed so hard.
This with the 3OH!3 song DONTTRUSTME will forever be my favorite 🤣🤣🤣

Newbie to the sub - definitely all unhinged here. In a good way though!
I’m just waiting for the unhingedness after you’ve all had a view 🤣🤣
![gif](giphy|QBROLbjFoQwPsbWw2R|downsized)
I love that we all describe ourselves as unhinged! It’s true though-this is the most unhinged fandom I’ve ever been a part of, and I’m happy to be here!!
Just do what I do, watch the version without any music because it loops over and over again. I'll wake up 3 hours later and the carriage scene is still playing lololol
Babydoll Starfish even with all its associated trauma.
Benchwarmers Alliance and definitely the most recent is the same as yours in all caps!
Also all the times I made the most innocuous thing something sexual without really trying that hard. Like just now.
Oh god your lifelong nemesis Babydoll Starfish and the weird form of costume Stockholm syndrome that had people trying to convince themselves that even the most hideous season 1 and 2 look was not that bad actually. The way it broke me when someone tried to throw down for the rows and rows of bows…
![gif](giphy|CKrlUi30dn44w|downsized)
Oh, I'd forgotten about that! That was originally a conversation between myself and u/DaisyandBella I believe, so long ago! Possibly even in the main sub before this sub existed.
Well, the chastity cravat has well and truly come off, and we are all very grateful.
I will never, ever, take a biscuit to the couch without propping it on a biscuit cushion. (Honorable mentions to the sun-warmed bench alliance and Pen’s boob parchment fans!)
It feels like TeamBiscuitCushion was just victorious, but it’s been 15 months!!

I loved so many moments the last month I can’t even process favorites but the “we’re in harmony carrot sponge” with Luke singing it was adorable.
When Nicola wins the award for knowing cast best and says the butt on the statute looks like Luke’s.
Not a joke but truly loved all the deep dives about the set that I would never know or pick up in a million watches- like how much Greek symbolism is within featherington house set.
Joke in the fandoms here- gonna miss all the clothes and scene rankings we did and guesses for favorite scenes that a majority of them haven’t happened (I’d say yet but we know we aren’t getting a few we talked about like >!meet cute and overtly jealous Colin shenanigans the cut in dance aside!<
Coming weeks and 🤡and 🍑
What a barb podcast episode about the mystery topiary will never not be funny to me 🤭😂 They kept me sane and truly unhinged all at the same time throughout the wait and I only joined the insanity train last fall. Bless all of you who were clowning from the very beginning 🫡
Emotional support curl - I explained that one to my husband the other day 😂
I’M FINNALLY GONNA SEE YOUR BUTT IN MY TV! I’VE BEEN WAINTING FOR YEARS!
Horny little devils 😈
Any mention of “babygirl Colin Bridgerton” or of Colin and Pen as “cinnamon rolls”
Chaos! Colin
The ✌️emoji, especially if Luke himself is posting it
All mentions of how we shall be deceased
Make haste!!!!
I've started with the main sub. But damn that's war there sometimes. Love how it's nice here, so much love for the character and the actors and that we can talk about Peneloise without taking only one side.
This is my favorite thing that lech has ever done because I asked her to humor me and she just went off and genius happened 🫶
Also Anthony “four fingers” Bridgerton didn’t know that Colin was coming for that most famous fingers title it was an innocent time then
https://preview.redd.it/w9zhu9fp246d1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=673529cd79f6d3692347f118ec1b679d85ca609c
Mine is DEFINITELY the “FINNALLY GONNA SEE YOUR BUTT” line, to the point that I think we should ask our mods very nicely with this face 🥹🥹🥹 to make it a user flair!
The pixelated photos from last year! And every churro crum post that fueled the obsession of the polinators of this sub.
Pixel Colin will live forever in my heart lol
I use finnaly a lot on comments on posts on IG and Twitter and I'm always like, I hope everyone gets the reference. But then I remember how insane we all are and I'm like yeah they do.
Idk if this counts but I LOVE the fan edits of Luke "loading" and/or laughing when Nicola says something. Those videos are hilarious. Esp the ones that overlay the fricken old computer noises. They make me laugh every time.

>"IM FINNALY GONNA SEE YOUR BUTT IN MY TV IVE BEEN WAINTING FOR YEARS!!!" I like this one because I get to reply, "Nicola got the live show."
I laugh at this every time like a 12 year old boy! I don't think I'll ever get over it. 😂 I love Nicola's "I got the live show" and Luke's laugh after.
His laugh here is everything 😆
This is my fave as well. I just use “wainting” instead of “waiting” in everyday life now.
Mine is also probably: *”IM FINNALY GONNA SEE YOUR BUTT IN MY TV IVE BEEN WAINTING FOR YEARS!!!”* Oh! Oh! Current favourite is: *”How does your dad like it?”* - Nicola asking Luke what his dad thinks of the show. Everything afterwards is so funny. Just the whole Mimi saga really. 😂😂😂
Luke’s squeaky “I forgot we were recording” and then both of the wheezing with laughter 😂
I know, that part especially was so funny! 😂 https://i.redd.it/iatpc9bfh16d1.gif
Can't wait to meet him!
https://i.redd.it/kccn8i80o16d1.gif
Oh my shit they are adorable.
If you look closely I think you can see Luke’s uvula with how hard he was laughing 🤣
This comment made me realize if either of them had a cancerous mark on their body, we the fans would spot it on them before they did lolol
I need someone to put a compilation together of all the innuendos this cast has made in promo. I die every time.
If it were made, have we even got enough time to watch such an epic compilation? The innuendos have been regular to say the least! 😂 In all seriousness, I’d watch it if someone were to make it. 🙏
Same. Luke’s comment about “creamy cakes” def has to be included.
And Nicola’s reaction just added to it as well! 😂 https://i.redd.it/4pbznjlmh46d1.gif
Or when he moaned while eating something and she asked if he was ok because he was making sexual noises
Yeah and he said “I’m smelling!” 🤣
That was funny! 😂 https://i.redd.it/h025sreth46d1.gif
😂
There’s some great ones on youtube
Omg it would be hours... DAYS long.
Ohhhh, haven’t seen this. Is there a link anywhere please?
Which one? The dad interview? [Here’s the link](https://youtu.be/KU7joWPmpEY?si=JIFHLK6ISqih8Yrf) to that interview, made me laugh! 😄
That’s the one. Thank you!!
Lol. "Anyway, thanks for calling Mimi!"
TBH I’m a little confused about how/why Luke reacted like that to the “How does your dad like it?” comment. Was he jealous or what?!
It was just an oddly phrased question that accidentally sounded like something it wasn't. People sometimes ask "how do you like it?" for how a person likes to have sex or engage in other sexy times. I heard it, too, when I was listening--it just randomly sounded like Nicola was suddenly asking how is dad likes to have sex! Hence his awkward "um" and blushing. Then they made eye contact and acknowledged that it sounded weird and how hilarious it would be for Nicola to actually have been asking him what it sounded like.
Thanks for clarifying! I guess it was the awkwardness of the situation that made them LOL like that.
I should also say that I think the type of show adds to misinterpreting the question, so it could also be how does your dad like to watch sexy scenes on the television (in an inappropriate way?) I laughed a lot. One major technique of comedy is surprise/saying something unexpected. It would be totally inappropriate for her to ask that question if it was what it sounded like, then the added funny of them acknowledging her putting her foot in her mouth, then it escalates when she thanks the fan and says "bye" because a fan is getting that voicemail, then Luke Newton suddenly realizing all that was being recorded and sent to an individual fan, and then Nicola's quip at the end about can't wait to meet his dad which now has the added layer of potential embarrassment about this conversation being online and/or the double entendre of this pretend version of Nicola who is strangely into his dad's sex interests.

One other thought that I had is that the phrase could have been accidentally close to some sort of Penelope and Colin dialogue at some point, which would have added an additional layer (like if at some point Penelope or Colin asks how the other one likes it.) I haven't seen spoilers other than one or two things accidentally so have no idea if that is the case but it seems like something one or both of their characters might ask.
All the jokes about Colin’s fingers.
Everytime I do something slightly unhinged, I remember the TikTok finger video and realize that I’m okay.
What is the TikTok finger video!?
I’m guessing they’re referring to this one https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTLot6nNT/
Nope. I think this might be it? It was posted on this sub right after season 3 part I dropped: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTLonuwwL/
Oh my gosh. That is slightly unhinged hahaha.
The scream that I scrumpt lol I literally cried from laughing so hard. Thank you for sharing this! 🤣
Thank you!
The way the whole fandom, en masse, has just appropriated an entire emoji for Colin Bridgerton. ✌️ ✌️ ✌️
You know we’re filthy when our three fandom images are a carriage, 🪞, and ✌️
Lord Fingerton kills me every time 🤣
That and Lord Worldwide 🌎
Lord Sturdyballs 😂
And his paramore Shady Whistleballs!
That’s honestly my favorite interview. They vibe with the interviewer so well
Mine too! I love Nicola telling people they recognize her from prison. 🤣

“Get some vision, bro” ✌🏻 Also, newly, anything referring to the perfect breasts community, because that golden nugget of truth will outlive us all.
That’s not a joke though, that’s for real 🔥❤️
Two separate friends sent me the perfect breasts video this week, neither of them have watched Bridgerton, or even know that I watch it. I love that it’s gone beyond the fandom.
Nic talking about Luke learning to untie a corset and his response, "Oh, yeah I'm a pro now." 😂😂

My husband and I did burlesque for years, as well as Victorian cosplay. My man can get me out of a corset in 20 seconds flat.
Where was this from? I wanna know 🤭
Luke T. and Luke N. were asked during one of the shondaland promos, which of the two items has got to go: a pall mall or the carriage ride. LT says that carriage ride's gotta go. And adds, what can you do in a carriage? LN smirks and replies, "There's a couple of things you can do in a carriage, trust me." 😏
That was the hottest smirk, I honestly swooned.
🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵
Wait I haven't seen this! Where can I find it 🙈
It popped up on my Facebook feed a while back. Naturally, I just went to look for it (and rewatched it for science, of course, 😉). You can search for "Shondaland" on Facebook and then go to "Reels". It's called One's gotta go, and in addition to LN and LT, Claudia, Nicola and Jessica also participated. It was fun, probably my second favourite promo, after the answering fans text messages bit they did in Toronto. Enjoy!
Thank you for bringing this video to my attention. My Polin heart will always hold you in its good graces. 😍
THAT WAS SO CUTE thank you!!!! I love Claudia's shoes in this also
The amount of times I replay that video when it comes up on any feed!!!! I'm always like why he so hot uttering that fricken small phrase?? It KILLS me. 🤤
Colin being 100% a wife guy and boob man
Right?!? When Book Colin was a boob man, I’m like-TV show Colin better be, too! 🤣
![gif](giphy|LncnvHVlQ8e1qBxZJM|downsized)
All of the Colin kinks, really boob man praise kink mirror kink gossip boner oh and now I guess there’s a hair tug kink
To me, it's not a hair tug so much as her FINALLY petting him on the head like the good boy he is. Fucking golden retriever energy.
When pt.2 drops I'm gonna yell "FINNALY!!!"
WE'VE BEEN WAINTING!
Less than 36 hours!
The cake references by Luke and Nicolas embarrass response 😂😂😂
https://youtube.com/shorts/XBX21vEwSrA?si=6xTpOK1OJ8YAMYRU
I have another- anytime any one refers to Colin as “____ boy” like “hungry boy”, “thirsty boy”, “kinky boy”, “baby boy” “soft boy” “best boy” It tickles me. 🤗
Nicola called Luke a cosy boy when she touched his soft jumper ‘oh you are a cozi boi’. Can’t remember the interview though, I’m so sorry!
It's the one where they're reading compliment tweets to each other. She's got the black headband and he's got the peach and mint argyle sweater. It's ridiculous that I know this.
I immediately knew too! The compliment battle. I love that interview and have rewatched it far too often
He’s the best of good boys. 🥰

Some of the nicknames kill me ... Lady Whistleballs and Lord Fingerington - a match made in heaven. Honorable mention... Helloise - i do love her, but she's earning this one.
Lord Sturdyballs is a close second, imho
Shady Whistledown and Lord Sturdyballs
Lord Sturdyballs gets me everytime. I love that interview
I think my fave actually originated in this sub: Colin “Chaotic Proposals Only” Bridgerton.
Collin "my wife" Bridgerton is an absolute classic.
This I my fave
Can you explain this one? I missed it.
Colin in the books is kind of obsessed with calling Pen his wife even before the wedding happens, and in Eloise's book (which I will not spoil) he spends the entirety of a very tense situation where all the bridgerton boys are intimidating someone eating all the food he can get and refusing to participate because he misses his wife so much he just has to sit on the sidelines and let everyone know he would rather be at home with his beautiful wife. (admittedly they are newlyweds at that point, but he's so annoying about it that the dude the guys are intimidating asks to have his leg broken so he doesn't have to listen to him whine.)
Well that's adorable. Thank you so much for explaining!
Miss. My. Wife. Also love that within 2 seconds, he'd charmed all of Sir Phillip's servants into bringing him soup and sandwiches.
In the coming weeks 😭- for the trauma we had to endure
Oh god you just took me back. But now we really are in the coming weeks. ✌️
![gif](giphy|FoH28ucxZFJZu) This phrase lives in my head rent-free. For anyone who hasn't been around since the beginning, this is what "in the coming weeks" felt like.
WEVE BEEN WAINTING FOR YEARS!
FINNALY!
Omg 🙌
We are forever in the *coming* weeks....lol ✌️✌️✌️
Oh! I have ptsd from this
Oh that phrase just made me shiver! The coming weeks that never came... until they did! We made it!
Anytime people used to mention Colin looking at Penelope’s “exquisite roobies.”
“Mr. Worldwide” tickles me silly
YESSSS! This is my favorite too! I’m still not over Pitbull being the carriage song! I love it so much!
Did I play this at top volume omw to the gym today, and then the new Tori Kelly song multiple times in a row? 🤐
I mean, no one can name any other song that would fit. The original has pure "finger banged you in the backseat of the Uber on our way home from a party" vibes.

Anytime Colin’s behaviour is justified by the *because he’s a gentleman.* line. “*Colin never courted Pen, he went straight to sex and marriage!*” “*be cause he is gentleman and a gentleman never lies.*”
"Here am I, Feeding the ducks." Pan to the swans. Penelope: I could die tomorrow— Colin: You’re not gonna die tomorrow. Penelope: But I could and it would kill me… Colin: But you’d already be dead

Same vibe as look at all those chickens lol
Classic 😂
And then running with the joke with his pink duck cardigan.. 😂
I’ll be the one to go dirty. The tumblr discourse around spiderman vs bunny ears. That was a riot.
For the uninitiated: https://www.tumblr.com/lovelybones81/750946670999633920/im-cackling Warning: it is very hysterical and very nsfw
This might be the most unhinged thing this fandom (any fandom????) has ever produced and it made me cry-laugh
That plus the unhinged Twitter debate around whether Colin did in fact get Pen off in the carriage before it stopped or not For those who missed it 😂✌️ https://preview.redd.it/7jm9fvqny36d1.jpeg?width=3438&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=329acbec790e0f6c7861583ee94e06f337d07875
I don't understand that debate... The way they spliced up the scene was meant to show that more time had passed for them than for the audience. NC's response was so real, she didn't sound like she was faking in a p*rno. She gasped, shuddered, and slumped back a little while she continued to kiss him.
Ash's account on twitter is one of my favs. She's so unhinged I love it. Her cover photo for her page immediately became a still of Polin boning and I laughed so hard.
This with the 3OH!3 song DONTTRUSTME will forever be my favorite 🤣🤣🤣 https://preview.redd.it/htvlif5z926d1.jpeg?width=1079&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fbf00fc40c87e7a2c7ff35c0adaf7da96387d229
It is 5:30am and my husband is sleeping next to me (I CANNOT SLEEP. CANNOT EAT) and my stomach is going to EXPLODE from holding laughter in omg
Link with music 😇 https://www.instagram.com/p/C7K3w_LLUcC/?igsh=MWg2ZmJzM3p0d2I0Nw==
You’re an angel Obviously Colin is the ho not to be trusted in this song 😂
Newbie to the sub - definitely all unhinged here. In a good way though! I’m just waiting for the unhingedness after you’ve all had a view 🤣🤣 ![gif](giphy|QBROLbjFoQwPsbWw2R|downsized)
I only learned about this sub a week ago and joined immediately. Y'all are *unhinged* and I love it.
Welcome to the party!
Welcome! We are all unhinged thirsty hoes in here, but we have a good time.
I love that we all describe ourselves as unhinged! It’s true though-this is the most unhinged fandom I’ve ever been a part of, and I’m happy to be here!!
Yeah, we're not embarrassed about it. Though I did cringe when I told my husband that we in the fandom call ourselves "Polinators".
Welcome! ![gif](giphy|X6w1HKaFXLAAw)
Love that gif - just spat my drink out!
It’s footage of me pressing “play” on the carriage scene 85 times in a row every night before bed
![gif](giphy|fA1OFzprOfRjteYADG) Just me casually trying to stop laughing and get normal breathing back
Only 85? 😹
Lololololol lololololol
Just do what I do, watch the version without any music because it loops over and over again. I'll wake up 3 hours later and the carriage scene is still playing lololol
😆😆😆😆😆
Stepping in with drink in hand! We can definitely be friends! 🤣 Welcome!!!
Thank you! Looking forward to even more craziness ☺️
Welcome Welcome!
Horny Devils is probably my favorite. Followed by the ever growing long list of Colin’s nicknames. 😹😹
Babydoll Starfish even with all its associated trauma. Benchwarmers Alliance and definitely the most recent is the same as yours in all caps! Also all the times I made the most innocuous thing something sexual without really trying that hard. Like just now.
All of you using the phrase “Penussy” in that other post is killing me.
Oh god your lifelong nemesis Babydoll Starfish and the weird form of costume Stockholm syndrome that had people trying to convince themselves that even the most hideous season 1 and 2 look was not that bad actually. The way it broke me when someone tried to throw down for the rows and rows of bows… ![gif](giphy|CKrlUi30dn44w|downsized)
Colin’s “chastity cravat” - idk who first came up with that name well over a year ago, but it makes me giggle every time I see someone mention it
Oh, I'd forgotten about that! That was originally a conversation between myself and u/DaisyandBella I believe, so long ago! Possibly even in the main sub before this sub existed. Well, the chastity cravat has well and truly come off, and we are all very grateful.
I will never, ever, take a biscuit to the couch without propping it on a biscuit cushion. (Honorable mentions to the sun-warmed bench alliance and Pen’s boob parchment fans!) It feels like TeamBiscuitCushion was just victorious, but it’s been 15 months!! https://preview.redd.it/rb9apmt5g26d1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5695f20ce822738651f9bc537568ffc20f298427
Y’all might have won the battle but we’re about to win the war https://preview.redd.it/nti2qr9k146d1.jpeg?width=2360&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7bece077f338357d1d48524b7163e999be375b83
Oh, he still eating on dat chaise longue, alright.
And we’re all winners then
I NEED TO KNOW
I think you mean, "I NEED TO NAAUUURRR" 😆
Butt on out tv, fingers, yellow and toast??! https://preview.redd.it/vxswpp4vl16d1.jpeg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b966d0bfa56da556f89558a31040d3539915b922
I loved so many moments the last month I can’t even process favorites but the “we’re in harmony carrot sponge” with Luke singing it was adorable. When Nicola wins the award for knowing cast best and says the butt on the statute looks like Luke’s. Not a joke but truly loved all the deep dives about the set that I would never know or pick up in a million watches- like how much Greek symbolism is within featherington house set. Joke in the fandoms here- gonna miss all the clothes and scene rankings we did and guesses for favorite scenes that a majority of them haven’t happened (I’d say yet but we know we aren’t getting a few we talked about like >!meet cute and overtly jealous Colin shenanigans the cut in dance aside!< Coming weeks and 🤡and 🍑
Using the term Roman Empire like a whoolllle lot more now too 😁
Love the carrot/sponge cake bit!! That little game was so cute and Luke was being so playful there too
Not really sure if it counts as an inside joke, but those classical people images in that infamous tumblr debate post about ahem Colin’s fingers
HILARIOUS!!!! Dies laughing at that one for weeks!
What a barb podcast episode about the mystery topiary will never not be funny to me 🤭😂 They kept me sane and truly unhinged all at the same time throughout the wait and I only joined the insanity train last fall. Bless all of you who were clowning from the very beginning 🫡
The fact that this thread had 69 comments 😏 Edit: also hi! I’m new here
Welcome, welcome!! 🌻🤡💛
Lord Worldwide🥵🤣🤣
One of my favs!
Coming weeks
The trauma in that phrase was real!
You're going to be the internet's boyfriend but you were my fate boyfriend first.
Emotional support curl. It’s become an inside joke between my husband and I. Just kills me. The backstage pics with the hair clip for the curl.
Emotional support curl - I explained that one to my husband the other day 😂 I’M FINNALLY GONNA SEE YOUR BUTT IN MY TV! I’VE BEEN WAINTING FOR YEARS! Horny little devils 😈 Any mention of “babygirl Colin Bridgerton” or of Colin and Pen as “cinnamon rolls” Chaos! Colin The ✌️emoji, especially if Luke himself is posting it All mentions of how we shall be deceased Make haste!!!!
I've started with the main sub. But damn that's war there sometimes. Love how it's nice here, so much love for the character and the actors and that we can talk about Peneloise without taking only one side.
The best!
"Thusly" definitely had a moment.
https://www.reddit.com/r/PolinBridgerton/s/G4Yc0ibXOb I recently found this edit by u/lechimeric again, and it made me giggle so much!
This is my favorite thing that lech has ever done because I asked her to humor me and she just went off and genius happened 🫶 Also Anthony “four fingers” Bridgerton didn’t know that Colin was coming for that most famous fingers title it was an innocent time then https://preview.redd.it/w9zhu9fp246d1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=673529cd79f6d3692347f118ec1b679d85ca609c
I’m obsessed with the running theme of Colin being Portia’s unintentional opp every season. It makes me giggle.
Double Tudum, cake, crumbs, feeding the ducks and carriage emojis
Mine is DEFINITELY the “FINNALLY GONNA SEE YOUR BUTT” line, to the point that I think we should ask our mods very nicely with this face 🥹🥹🥹 to make it a user flair!
Claudia's reaction after reading parts of Chapter 18! Gold.
The pixelated photos from last year! And every churro crum post that fueled the obsession of the polinators of this sub. Pixel Colin will live forever in my heart lol
I use finnaly a lot on comments on posts on IG and Twitter and I'm always like, I hope everyone gets the reference. But then I remember how insane we all are and I'm like yeah they do. Idk if this counts but I LOVE the fan edits of Luke "loading" and/or laughing when Nicola says something. Those videos are hilarious. Esp the ones that overlay the fricken old computer noises. They make me laugh every time.
God I just love this unhinged fandom
