I feel like Ingrid De Forest was 100% friends with Tahani Al-Jamil.

[@Tulloop]

LMAFOO they so would be friends

[@syntaxusdogmata3333]

I dunno... they'd have to both be in a good place for it to work.

[@Trethar512]

Naw. But she'd totally be friends with Kamilah.

[@Robert-kd9vs]

Maybe her sister.

[@davidstenow5055]

“We have a saying in Eagleton: You don't kick a dressage horse after a failed pas de deux” isn’t a line that rolls of the tongue but Kristen Bell delivers it so effortlessly

[@Knolch]

I know_ That is very hard to say out loud, such a tongue breaker - and then deliver it like you´ve been using it all your life as have your parents and generations before.

I like that they never made Ingrid De Forest a mean character. Even when she's first introduced she's clearly vapid and out of touch with reality, but not mean

[@ShaneChang-tt4su]

I think that's the double - edged sword of Schur's shows. He's such a decent person that even the villains end up humanized and ultimately part of the team. Then the shows need to dig extra hard to bring in new villains and problems until they end in wish fulfillment and everyone hugging. They're great shows, but I wonder if he'll try to change it up going forward.

​@@Timely-ud4rmNot really, since to qualify for unemployment in Indiana where Parks and rec takes place you need to: 1.Have earned at least a minimum amount in wages before you were unemployed. 2. Be unemployed through no fault of your own, as defined by Indiana law. 3. Be able and available to work, and you must be actively seeking employment.

@Libellulaire it misses the point and reveals a haughty knowledge of a despicable elitist culture, that is, dressage culture. It's exactly what this Parks and Rec clip is lampooning. You're changing it to "spelling things" but I was clearly misspelling the French term on purpose, as a joke. "Podadoo" is funnier. That is why.

[@oldvlognewtricks]

@@johansigg3869 Funnier to someone who things a knowledge of basic French is ‘dispicable’ and ‘elitist’, and a spelling correction is ‘haughty’. No mirrors in your part of the world? Must make it difficult to do that self-reflection you’re struggling with.

[@oldvlognewtricks]

This doesn’t seem like totally normal for US politics?

[@Libellulaire]

I never took it as her in particular bankrupting the town, more like a thing politicians in Eagletown did over the years. They lost their touch with reality and money, they kept spending for useless things because for them it was all about "looking rich and fancy" until it was too much and too late to do anything about it. It's not like Ingrid alone was running Eagletown and making all the decisions.
