Jane Austen's Batman!

Okay. Imagine Jane Austen's world, or rather, Jane Austen's exquisite manner of speaking, only with a Gotham twist. Imagine Austen-esque words coming from the horribly twisted and scarred mouth of the Joker...intrigued? Heheheh. ;-D

[livejournal.com profile] fioriture was kind enough to point THIS out to me, and seeing as it made me laugh so hard as to nearly choke on my dinner and imbed pizza in the keyboard, I just thought I'd share it with the rest of you, only with a warning to not eat whilst reading humorous articles...

I'm not even sure what to use as an icon for this post! Batman, or Jane Austen? lol.

Hahahaha!

"What could be more natural than me asking you to compromise your principles, your integrity, your commitment to never varying your facial expression?"

Also, you will either love it or hate it, but you should see if you can watch Lost in Austen. It was on ITV in September. It's available on the ITV website but you have to be in the UK to view it (boooo!). I DID find some of it on alluc.org though. I think it was just four episodes long.

Bwhahaha ! Hilarious :D

PS.
Well, that icon does seem to have a bit of a Regency flair ;-)

Indeed, tis most intriguing. :)

Sometimes I wish our modern language could be more refined. Nowadays, it seems as if we have three languages or dialects among American English: Highbrow (scholarly, reserved, wealthy), regular (most well educated people), and slangopolis (anyone and everyone, especially the young, popular, less-mannered generation).

Omg!

That was so funny! That was genious!


P.S. I can actually imagine Heath Ledger speaking that way in his British or Aussie accent!

That was rather amusing. I really can't imagine the Joker talking like that.
