    No burglar would break the largest window (sliding glass doors) to gain access especially when that is the area with cameras.  May have well announced their intentions with a megaphone. 

    Actually, its easier to get in through a large door or window than it is a small one, broken or not.  Most burglars go through doors, not windows.  Most security cameras aren't monitored in real time and even though they were caught on video clips in this case, they haven't been identified so far, so cameras aren't that much of a deterrent, really.  Look at all the porch pirate videos people post and they don't help catch the theif or get their stuff back most of the time.  Alarms don't even stop them if they know the location of what they want.  They can get in and out before the police are notified.  With our system, police aren't notified if the alarm is disarmed with the correct code unless it's gone off for a certain amount of time.  Then the alarm company calls every contact number for the owner to make sure it's a real emergency and if they can't contact the homeowner they call the police.    Our alarm company doesn't even call us back if the alarm is set off accidentally and we disarm it before it's gone off for a certain amount of time.  I dont think it's possible to assume that "no burglar" would do this or that because most of them get off on the act of stealing whether they make any money off it or not.  They like the rush, it's a drug to them.

     I always wondered why Dorit never heard the glass door breaking and wouldn’t the dog have barked even if it was in a crate?

    Not necessarily and even if the dog did bark, dogs bark at nothing all the time or at least mine does.  I dont always investigate to see what he's barking at.  Dorit's house is big.  Mine is probably  a tenth the size of hers and yet it's still hard to hear some noises, especially if it's on another floor.  Acoustics are weird.

  3. Zendaya blew me away...again.  Her utter despair at the end brought actual tears to my eyes.  I know how that feels when you're way too high and though I was never an addict or suicidal  I did a  lot of drugs when I was much younger  and I was a serious abuser.  As far as her plan to pay back the money for the drugs?  She doesn't have one.  She wants to get high, period.  That's how it is - and you hate yourself so you think it would be better if someone did kill you or you OD'd or whatever.  You just don't care.  Her sadness and anger and pain took me back to the edge of some places I hadn't thought about in a LONG time.  Thank God Cal's crazy was the next scene because I was considering blowing off work and just getting back into bed lol.  This show is "fucking amazing." And because no one else will say it, I will.  Regarding the opening montage...Rue, you in danger girl!

    Who was that guy and who's the baby mama asking questions? 

    Thats the guy who Ash hit in the face with the hammer after he killed Mouse.  He's the guy who went with them to the drug dealer teacher's house where they were made to strip.  He was telling Fez that Mouse's baby mama was coming around asking a bunch of questions.

  4. Just started the last half of season 8 - the final season.  OMG, it's dark.  Like way dark.  I had to literally turn away from the screen during a scene in epi 12 (second epi of last 1/2 of the season).  You'll know which one I mean when you watch it.  Or dont watch it, as the case may be. Ugh.

    I like Lu's house. Sue me.

    I do too.  I like remote places that aren't perfect and trendy.  Trendy makes me ill.   I could live there no problem.  And I can't believe that anyone would think that going to a gay bar and watching that crazy woman singing cabaret in the gaudiest outfit I've ever laid my eyes on wouldn't be hilarious and fun.  I'd be way drunk tho.

    I want a vegan/vegetarian to teach me how to cook something tasty.

    There are about bajillion cookbooks out there.  Isa Chandra Moskowitz has tons of great vegan cookbooks including ones for just cupcakes and just pies.  Robin Robertson is another great vegan chef who has written many books

    .  It's no sacrifice to be vegan, believe me.  I eat the fuck out of some food and I've been vegan for many years.

  7. I am the first one to tell people that you dont judge how people grieve.  Everyone has a process, but Bethenney's reaction to Dennis's death has convinced me, as if I wasn't already, that she is a textbook narcissist.   "It is getting easier" at less than two months????  No bitch, that's when the reality sets in and it gets harder.  Not to mention that it is just pathetic to me that she is already talking about dating.  That is just sad that someone, especially someone with her resources, cannot be alone at all.  It must be awful to live in her head.  Her need for attention is so enormous that she can even entertain the thought of being with anyone else at this point just disgusts me.  I can't imagine what it's like to be that needy.  You would think her social media acolytes would keep her black hole of need satisified for just a little while, but no.  And I don't believe for one second that if they truly were engaged (as if you can be engaged to a married man), that she could keep her yap shut about it.  Bitch talks way too much to keep a secret like that.  She can't help herself.  

    But kadooz for the relief work.  I guess.  She does that for attention and validation too, but the people are being helped and that's really all that matters.

     I'd like to see a moratorium on ALL pet breeding (I know, I'm a radical, but THIS IS A CRISIS). [/soapbox]

    Right there with you.  Once you walk down the rows of the shelter with dogs and cats on either side of you and they are all pretty much doomed and you have to decide who you are going to rescue that day and who you are going to have leave there to die, if you still think breeding is ok in any form or fashion you have a black, rotted soul.  I don't believe in responsible breeding - I've never witnessed such a thing even from ones that have waiting lists and make you drive across the country to get the puppy and all the things "responsible" breeders are supposed to do.  They are part of the problem, period.  

    ETA I love Amanda, she's a badass.
