I'll preface this by saying I LOVE Erica. She is beautiful, well-spoken, and a fantastic dancer. However, it always cracks me up when I hear any of these girls say "Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader" (she said it at about :32) when Jordan Baum got a handy dandy second asshole ripped by Charlotte for saying there was no S on Cowboy in her interview years ago. Erica only said it once and said it correctly two other times, but it still just makes me chuckle. I hope she doesn't get a dressing down for her silent S.

They had used those girls names in prior years so I think they used them again for continuity and to lessen confusion.

Omg stop. Your gifs cause me enough physical pain (from laughter). I can't handle Napoleon Dynamite.

I think we all share that same sickness, my friend. I get the shakes when I go too long without watching an MTT rerun.

I mean we could probably make that a thing. @RazzleberryPie you're a dancer, right? Make this a thing. I'm officially obsessed with Kelsey's new relationship. They are hilarious.

Television Without Pity, the forum a bunch of us used to post on until it shut down. Believe it or not, it was even more heavily moderated than this one. Oops, said that out loud. Bye.

Do you mean this one? It's an old pic. Lol! We must be on the same wavelength or something. Hey btw, why'd you change your name? I got so confused by it for a second, I think yesterday, haha.

Loni basically couldn't kick at all. She could barely lift her legs. Bless her little heart.

Brittany. She's the one who said she didn't know what a political party was. Then in her talking head she said she did know what a political party was, but then couldn't name them. AND THEN she said, "I feel a lot more better," after her solo. Bless.

Omg, the gif almost made pee come out. @dreamcatcher I just watched the Spanish flu episode where Lavinia dies and Anna and Bates get married. I'm a puddle. ?

Same. I didn't particularly care for her performance her second time around in camp, but I always posted nice things about her until that happened. Bye, Felicia.

LOL you're thinking of her first season when she said she wasn't crying because she was upset. This screen grab was taken from her second season right before she said, "I'm soooo saaad." I kind of liked her the first time around. Can't say the same for the second.

Agree! Claire got a few comments about lacking power her rookie season, but then she came back her second year rocking it and made show group. I'm definitely rooting for Heather.

She reminds me of Ashley Paige when she talks (which is a good thing, AP was so well spoken). Love her. I wonder if Heather will make show group this year. They lost a lot of show group vets this year, and Heather's technique looks nice to me in those photos.

And then Kelli said, "How cute is that prop?" That always makes me laugh!

No, I can't remember the O'Biden girl's name, but if she's auditioned more than once, she was only featured that one time (and for all the wrong reasons). I've never been able to get a good reading on Jamie and if she's a good dancer or not. We just haven't seen enough of her dancing to tell. I do remember being underwhelmed by her fan vote video whatever year she auditioned while they were doing that, but I also think those fan vote videos can be unforgiving since it's a one take thing. I do like her and want to root for her because she obviously has so much persistence.

Yasss! I love it! It's a revolution.

If you ever need a backup, I have this epic crying Shmathryn Schmunn shot on reserve. Her eyebrows sure tell a story. I just can't ditch Megan yet though. ?

@DanceChick just wanted to say I spotted your Vivian avatar in another thread and immediately started giggle snorting. I'm loving all the DCC themed avatars I'm seeing. Everyone get on board already!!

It was a joke, hence the statement in parenthesis, lol. Just capitalizing on the fact that I don't think there's much Kelsey could do to get herself cut from camp as a vet.

I heard she kicked Kelli square in the face at practice last night, but her leg was high and her foot was pointed so no one even minded. (Just ignore me. I'm feeling kinda trolly tonight.)

I actually think Holly looks a lot fresher and younger in that pic than she does a lot of the time. Yeah she has a lot of eyeliner on, but the rest of her makeup is pretty simple. I much prefer this look than some of the headshots she has where all of her makeup is super heavy. I also really like her facial expression. It's a little bit flirty and smoldering, but not over the top. Just my opinion of course. She can honestly do no wrong in my eyes. :)

Honestly I'm not upset. Damn.

That first picture of Jenna is actually super unflattering to me. It makes her look soft in the middle, which she is not.

Anyone here a "Downton Abbey" fan? I've finally gotten around to watching it years after putting it in my Netflix queue (it's been so long the damn show isn't even ON Netflix anymore), and I can't get enough of those snooty but loveable Brits and their staff. It's sooo good. I'm typically a sucker for anything set in the early 1900's, and anything British. Just fascinating. On another note, my Grandmother just swam her last race at the Nationals Senior Games, and walks away with three golds and three silvers. She is 91 and the pride and joy of our family. It actually makes me a bit ashamed looking at pictures of her with her medals as I sit here eating Oreos. Sigh.
