    I can’t believe Arthur, my favorite celebrity, gave in to corruption and became a sellout. Now I’m questioning everything. Is the library even fun?

      He should have stuck with being an English alcoholic socialite in New York City.

            I had to dig really hard to find this one. Why is he so well known to you?

              I mean it’s a movie with the exact same title as the show everyone is talking about? Doesn’t seem like that much of a deep cut

                  …Arthur, from 1981. Like I said, it has the same title as the show? Am I being trolled?

                    Oh!! Sorry - I thought the OP was referring to a real person called Arthur Bach.

                    I actually finally googled it and realized it’s just a film, from 1981 as you say. OP is not a connoisseur of the NY Social Elite… he just watched films as a kid

                    Sorry for the mixup!

              Not really sure. I’m middle aged so maybe that’s a factor? Funny thing is I’ve never actually seen either of those movies. I guess I have a fairly good memory for useless trivia.

      I have a library card. But I still find it difficult to have fun sometimes. Was it all lies?!

      Do you think someone would actually do that? Just go on the Internet and tell lies?
