Is Jax on something? Seriously. That was so beyond. ”You deserve better than me.” “So what are you saying?” Brittany. Hon. He’s saying that he wants to dump you for the Reiki Queen, but he doesn’t have the goat cheese balls to do so.

Oh great. SUR is turning into Coyote Ugly. It’s a shame Ariana is sooooooooooooooooooo insecure

“YOU STOLE MY GD TAX RETURN!”

Ok in the Lala/James dynamic, who’s Eminem and who’s Dre? I guess Lala is Dre? Was Kristen the Kim to James’s Eminem? Oh here’s another great comparison: Jax Jason and Nelson Mandela (member of Oprah’s Book Club). Free-eee Jason Tay-lah!

Truth be told, I like all kinds of stuff on bagels. But dry? Nah. And I would always bring a friend whatever they liked. Even a bagel sandwich if the situation called for it ;) But yeah Carrie should know what Miranda likes and not do a half-hearted gesture!

But would you *bring a friend* just a bag of bagels with nothing else?

But you still like *something* on there—not just dry bagels. Not picking up cream cheese is still a half hearted gesture... “brought these dry bagels over to lift your spirits...”

Ho ho ho! ;) (OK not really. Just was too obvious of a joke to let it pass)

Whitney’s face in that clip is definitely of the “ouch, got his number” variety than of the “That’s some BS” variety. I’m sure Whitney knows the real scoop. Craig, you still bummed that gig with Gentry didn’t work out?

Erika did the dark lip (and overall look) well. I actually loved the color of Rinna’s lipstick too—just not *on her.*

I was chuckling to myself the other morning too. I had a bagel and was low on cream cheese, and mused on the yuckiness of cream cheese-less bagels. It’s like break room bagels, when you’re left with onion bagels and the remnants of strawberry cream cheese. I’ll pass. ;)

Thanks for all the helpful horse info! I’ve been on a horse a grand total of once, and I’ve had no idea. I do, unfortunately, have a lot of experience with allergies, and what you wrote is exactly what I thought... I’ve been afraid I ate something that had my allergen in it and had the same reaction. Going into anaphylactic shock and almost dying—which HAS happened to me—is pretty dramatic and scary, and if you think it may be happening, a panic attack can happen and it does mimic the allergic experience in many ways. I won’t claim the cry baby crown, though ;) Just please don’t start arguing about who’s the better friend to LVP! ;)

Fair enough :) Elizabeth always seemed waaaaaaayy too normal to run with this crew!

Some men can rock white jeans...

My guess is that T-Rav found that really appealing: a young woman from a family with a name, who was also sketchy (but not as sketchy as him... T-Rav has standards!). A better-behaved woman of his “class”—of the Cameran type, or of the type to not appear on this show AT ALL—wouldn’t go anywhere near him, I’m guessing. In the Media thread there’s a link to an interview with Whitney. He speaks about the show and its cast as if they are the most classy, erudite bunch on TV. As I watched this episode, and as HunterHunted responded in that thread, these people really are no better than the people on Vanderpump Rules. They’re just as sketchy, if not more so, but still act as though their poop doesn’t stink, which is ridiculous. The only ones who haven’t completely ruined their reputations are Cameran and Patricia, and that’s because they hold back a lot of their real lives and they are playing “characters” in a way. The guys are bleh and they’ve been in the kiddie pool WAY too long. (Craig isn’t as gross as the rest of them, but he still needs to grow up.) And that Circle of Complaint featuring the women was just too much. Especially Naomie... Anyway. I may skip next week to see if I feel like I’m missing anything other than annoyance with these people. At least the VPR crew can be funny.

“I’m dating a guy with a bridge named after his family” ”My boyfriend is super notable. I mean, he’s made headlines” ”He had a political career but gave it up for other pursuits”

I wouldn’t be surprised if Grandpa T-Rav took her shopping for “appropriate” Southern “attire,” or at the very least bankrolled her Charleston Barbie Dream Closet. I can’t deny that Kathryn and Ashley both saw $$$ when it came to T-Rav. But even so, Kathryn came on the scene early in season 1 and was apparently well known in their social circles. She was also a “scion” as T-Rav is, so—as tenuous as ties to ACTUAL class may be—she was “appropriate” for him. Ashley saw the dude in a bar in LA after several seasons of the show and beckoned him over based on his fame. Or “fame.” She HAD to see $$$ plus reality show “stardom” because it’s not like she would’ve been drawn in by his impeccable character and reputation for being an upstanding gentleman by any definition most of us would use.

The next season of RelationShep (John Calvin help us) should feature Teddi as Shep’s “Accountability Coach” in every episode.

I’d watch the heck out of The Patricia and Gizmo Show, with sporadic appearances by Chanel Guitar Whitney. As to the bolded question? Yes. Yes, it has.

I don’t think I can handle these people anymore. Austen, dudebro. If you invite an ex to your party, and she sees you hanging all over HER FRIEND, she’s not being unreasonable or weirdly clingy if she tells you she needs to distance herself. She’s protecting her own self, which she is well within her rights to do. It’s not some kind of strange moral failing on her part. And then implying that the “door is ajar” with Cheltsie? You don’t get to pick and choose when Cheltsie is “your option.” I hope she’s 100% disgusted and doesn’t date him again.

Yep! Looks like it was released in 2015? I got it maybe 2016. They have the episodes in France and Australia, and stuff from the Paley Center on 2014. Some other stuff also, listed on Amazon. Quality is not bad. It’s worth it if you love the show :)

I hadn’t seen the atrocious “Blair accident” episode until a couple years ago, when I got the dvds. That whole last season or so just felt so tacked on and untrue to most of the characters. I’m glad I didn’t see those when I was a kid, because they’d have ruined my perception of the show, in some ways.

That was one of my favorite moments too! I often think “what is it that I *like* about Ramona?” And it’s stuff like that. Aww, Walnutqueen. I’d never blame you for any of that :( I just find Bethenny’s choices macabre. “Look at my dying dog! Watch me sob into the camera!” People grieve; it’s normal. We just don’t usually see the dying loved one (fur or human) die. I thought Cher. She could’ve been a great Cher. She’s like Scheana on Vanderpump Rules, who claimed she loved her current boyfriend for the past 11 years—Lisa Vanderpump had to remind her: uh, you were dating and married to “the love of your life” for six (or whatever it was) of those years. Selective blackout memory. Denying reality in the moment (by effusing about how great things were) and then rewriting history by denying they’d initially ignored any problems. Not sure what LSB is—Lip Sync Battle?

In the words of Bananarama (Or... Ella... d’oh) “It ain’t what ya do, it’s the way that ya do it.”* Totally see mourning. Totally see posting something. But it was totally a LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE! moment, as @JD5166 said. LOL Carole smokes in costume. Carole Jayne, the alter ego!

“Come over, whoever ya dressed as!” That could just ALWAYS apply for Sonja, right?
