  • www.manicpixiedreamwife.com - Manic Pixie Dream Wife is a comedy web series created by M. Elizabeth Eller that examines the pop-culture trope of the manic pixie dream girl -- the effervescent, carefree, quirky woman who arrives in a man's life with a singular purpose: to help him become a better version of himself. Who is this woman? Where does she come from, and what is she like in everyday life?
    Blending humor and drama, MPDW is both playfully sardonic as it examines the popular caricature, and thoughtful as it explores relationships, and the roles people bring into them. The series follows Chance and Simone as they navigate married life from two very different perspectives.
    Chance is at the end of his rope when we meet him -- he knows he sounds ungrateful, but his delightful wife is driving him to madness. She sends in their bills with colorful drawings instead of checks, because "money is such a restrictive concept." She sends him to the hospital after an impromptu burn party in their kitchen. As Chance explains, she is a menace to herself and him because of her inability to function in the real world. But is that true?
    As the series goes deeper into their life, questions of how they define themselves arise, and it becomes clear that each is playing a number of roles -- but to what end?

    The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls. The mom is crazy and you'll hate her

      Honestly, in that book I think the dad was worse.

      Ooh yes, I read that book back in high school. The dad was an asshole and the mom was just a childish moron, and they both always put themselves before their own kids. The Glass Castle was one of my most favorite books of all time, but dude, I was so angry while reading it.

      Really? I thought the dad was way worse. The mom just seemed like more of the enabler than the instigator of crazy.

    I married a Bi-Polar woman. She was this but without looks or charm, and there was no reasoning with her, and once I married her it got worse. I thought she was getting better, but she was just pretending long enough for me to be stupid enough to marry her. Remember, it is better to be alone, than to be with the wrong person.

      Zachary Grigley not
      all of us bipolar people are like that. Besides, if you fell for her fake self, it just means that you were either gullible enough to buy into her trickery, or perhaps jumped into the marriage too soon, before knowing what she was actually like. hate to be the one to tell you, but you were dumb enough for her headgames to work either way. nobody cab act fake forever.

      Zachary Grigley that’s too bad, fortunately modern science has provided us with the luxury of remedying the issue with medication. Tell her to get on some for the sake of both her and your well being. Hopefully if she’s still not on meds you don’t have children together; having a parent that lashes out in anger at you for no apparent reason other than an involuntary chemical imbalance is something quite hard and sad for a child to go through. So confront the problem or get a divorce. Hope it all works out for you and your family.

    • @birdiewolf3497
      @birdiewolf3497 7 років тому +67

      No there isn't. That trope is literally a shell of a person that solely caters to a man's needs. Now you get guys that see you as a manic pixie, but those relationships go pretty badly since they ignore all your flaws and issues as you can see here. Of course this is an exaggeration, but it usually implodes like this

    Wow, are people ever missing out on another meme though, and one you'll more likely encounter in real life. That's the Sporty Pixie Dream Girl who once she becomes Wife things begin to tense up as soon as she has a kid or two. She'll suddenly realize "Oh shit, this isn't my life. I wanted to be a tennis, golf, cycling, etc. semi-pro outside my career hours. No time for this scene, I'm outa he-ah!"

    See, here's the thing about this series, when you've watched it all the way through you really have to wonder where that ending came from. I mean it can't have been part of the original plan when you consider that one of the first things he says she did was to literally rip the upholstery off of the furniture to make a blanket fort. Now maybe it's just me, but that kind of flies in the face of, "she just did it all to be quirkly and cheer him up." That's like saying someone jumped into the grand canyon as a pratt fall to cheer up their spouse. Going a bit far there. I contend that the ending of this series was just tossed in their to appease the angry ladies that have been putting this comedy series down for being sexist.

    I got the perfect salutation. I think you're going to like it. It is something that benefits us both. How would you feel about renting her out, cause I am in the market, but I am having second thoughts after watching your video. Every other weekend is good for me.
