Your Witty Comebacks Come from the Dowager Countess
If the early twentieth century is your jam, then the likelihood is that you’ve watched Downton Abbey several times over and are beyond excited that they’re finally starting production on a movie version. Which means you also know that no one throws shade quite like the Dowager Countess, and you employ her dry one-liners when the situation calls for it.
After all, what’s better than responding to “Are you having fun?” with “At my age, one must ration one’s excitement.” Or, having heard your friend complain about her terrible ex for the millionth time, say, “You’re a woman with a brain and reasonable ability. Stop whining and find something to do!”
