Rereading Sense & Sensibility

Fanny Dashwood is such a bitch ugh. Moving into her late father in law's house right after he dies??? That's so rude and inconsiderate even by today's standards!
John Dashwood is such a snotweasel, too. Selfish idiot. Don't feel guilty for not helping your half-sisters and therefore hope their friends will give them money, YOU do it!
SHUT UP Mrs. Jennings you need to stop
You too, Sir John. And especially you too Miss Steele
Edward srsly what is wrong with you
I mean really, y so awkward
And why on earth did you get engaged to Lucy Steele in the first place (okay, young love makes you an idiot) but then stay engaged to her? So dumb. And then he goes and falls in love with Elinor! Either you break it off with the first chick or you stay away from the second! You're supposed to be a gentleman for pete's sake
And really WTF is up with Lucy Steele? Does she suspect Edward loves Elinor instead of her? What's with all her secrets and conjecture? The basic bitch. So Lifetime movie
Willoughby can die in a fire. I wish he did
Marianne is SUCH. AN. IDIOT. Like, I get that she's sanguine and is all ~*FEELINGS*~ and crap, but what was wrong with her father in not trying to correct that? He didn't die until she was like sixteen; that's plenty of time to address the problem. Or hire a governess who can. Why is Elinor the only non-idiot in the family? Like, Marianne is just so rude and crap, even by today's standards. You don't go with a guy to his aunt's house that he'll inherit when she dies; that's just rude. And she's so rude to people she doesn't like (which is everyone besides W and her immediate family and Edward).
Also what is with people assuming couples are engaged if they talk to each other. Like can't people just like each other? And write letters to each other? Geez
Mrs. Dashwood is such an idiot too. It's mainly her fault her daughter turned out like that.
Okay, Elinor, you are the only one with any sense. PLEASE butt into your sister's love life and boss her around. She's too stupid to manage it on her own. We're lucky Willoughby didn't knock her up, really, with the way she was acting.
I really, really do not get why Elinor and her mom didn't just ask Marianne, so like are you engaged? Oh, you're not? Well, don't act like you are unless you want people thinking you're a total common tart, free milk = not buying the cow etc. BOOM, problem solved.
I mean Edward seems nice and all but he's so insipid and passive I feel he doesn't deserve Elinor
Elinor should have ended up with Colonel Brandon
I haven't reached the ending yet but I really think Jane Austen just made C. Brandon end up with Marianne as like a nice pity consolation prize cuz his life was so sad. I don't buy their supposed love. It's convenient, is all.
