Lizzie: It is truth universally acknowledged that a single man

My mom gave each of us one of these last Christmas.

Who am I? I'm a 24 year old grad student with  a mountain of student loans,

living at home and preparing for a career.

But to my mom, the only thing that matters is that I'm single.

My name is Lizzie Bennet and this is my life.

"My Name is Lizzie Bennet" Written by Bernie Su

So my Mom belongs to a class of parents  I like to call the 2.5 WPF Club.

What's the 2.5 WPF Club? It stands for a home with 2.5 kids

and a white picket fence. Which I know actually sounds pretty nice.

But it's really annoying when it's all your mom talks about 24/7.

Not only is my mom a member of the 2.5 WPF club,  she's probably the president.

How do I know? Ladies and the gentlemen, I present again… Exhibit A.

I'm sure there are a great number of rich, young,  single men who aren't looking for wives.

Incapable of escaping current dead-end relationships,

sailing around the world trying to find themselves,

focusing on work, or skills, or hobbies, or whatever it is  that rich guys do when they're young.

But no. According to mother, every rich, single guy is  put on this planet to impregnate her daughters.

To illustrate my point, I'll need a little help.

Lizzie: This is my friend Charlotte, and  she's going to help me with this demo.

Charlotte: No I'm not. What is this from? Lizzie: Here, okay, your lines.

Charlotte: Who wrote this?  Lizzie: Shakespeare.

Honey! did you hear the house in  Netherfield sold the other day?

Charlotte: Did it now? Lizzie: The large mansion with the white picket fence and

plenty of space to raise 2.5 grandkids. Charlotte: Mmmhmm

Lizzie: Emily Lu told me. She said the deal was for three million  dollars! But it's not the price that matters, but who bought it.

Lizzie: He's a well-mannered young man  from Harvard, working to become a doctor.

I hear his family has quite the fortune. How perfect for our girls!

Lizzie: Oh my dear husband! Can't you  imagine him with one of our daughters?

Charlotte: I find that rather difficult,  since I have yet to meet this young man.

Lizzie: Then you must go meet him at once! Welcome him to the neighborhood.

I will bake a pie. Let him know about our three eligible  young daughters who are in desperate need of a rich, single man.

Look, I'm all for rich, single guys, but who  is my mom to tell one of us who to marry?

What if he's gay? What if he's a serial killer?  What if he's a gay serial killer?

It's not like we're all going to put our lives on hold because some rich single guy dropped from the sky.

Lydia: Lizzie! Did mom tell you about who just  bought that mansion in Netherfield?

Lydia: So this... wait. What are you guys doing?

Lydia: Anyway, so this guy, his name is Bing Lee,  and he is rich, hot, annndd...

Lydia: Jackpot, right?!? Whaaaat! Lizzie: No.
