I liked Patty tonight. She seemed to show some ingenuity and just had a good attitude about the situation in general.

So when Rinna commented on Erika's boots and Erika replied "Old school Gucci" and also pointed out that her dress was McQueen was it as gauche as when Camille asked Kyle if her dumb shoes were Stella and Kyle replied "Prada"? I'm not seeing 3 pages of outrage over it, but there's always tomorrow.

The old floors were so much better. There's an open house this weekend. I'm kind of but not really thinking about going to lookee-loo but I'm not a big enough stalker so I'll just go to the football party I was invited to instead. I've sent mine to training like that, but only for a week. If you're already going to be boarding them for a vacation it isn't that much more to have them trained while they are there and I had one that was a bit of an asshole and needed it and I was going to Hawaii so why not spend a little extra and have her work on her problems while there? She's a lot better now, so it was worth it.

I don't know anyone in Southern California that has a back up generator. We don't have a lot of power outages and definitely not extended ones. We don't have a lot of extreme weather that would cause outages. I can think of one big multi-day outage in LA in the last 20 years. ETA thinking about it more, I know someone that has a generator at their vacation cabin in Big Bear, but that's kind of a different situation since it is in the mountains and there's snow and it is more remote and not in the city.

Dorit was really an asshole in every single scene she was in tonight. Her outfits have all been misses this season and I swear her boobs were not as ridiculous last season either. My enjoyment of her was shallow and is fading fast. Ever since Erika waxed poetic about her DSLs I can't help but notice that they are usually drawn on poorly. I probably wouldn't have noticed or cared, but now the crooked lines and wonky corners are all I can see.

Don't forget, she thought the riz-ee-auto was going to have ketchup on it.

I think it was actually the shit show in Hong Kong.

The first time I met my mom was when I popped out of her. She simply meant she didn't have any children living in her house and said it in a way that could have been offensive if I took it literally instead of laughing at her gaffe. I wouldn't be surprised at all to learn that Erika's dad meant it in basically the same way, he'd never had kids in his house, and she jumped to take offense. We've seen her over the top offense at innocuous statements before, so it isn't like it would be out of character. I'm just not taking her poor me story without a grain of salt. Some people do pretty well at convincing themselves that they had worse childhoods than they did - another thing we've seen Erika do (poor me, I had to cash a check). My sister will tell anyone that will listen that she never had a home cooked meal or a birthday party. One of my chores was to cook dinner, so I know she had a hot cooked meal almost nightly and I was at every single birthday party she had and know those happened yearly and were usually pretty good. It's a third or fourth hand statement. Not only that, but it is a statement that trickled through a family that seems like it might have had interesting dynamics and we don't know everyone's motivations. I still feel badly for her because she is obviously upset over it. I'm just not ready to write her dad's whole family off as cruel heartless assholes. I was thinking of some luncheon where LVP was telling Roscio which dressing went on what, but I don't know if she made the food or had it brought in from one of her restaurants. Not Beverly Hills and I think someone posted in another thread that the purchase price was only $1.8M, which isn't a ton for LA. It was purchased a few years back when the market was lower, but that still would have just been a decent house in a decent area, not a BH mansion or anything. I couldn't afford it, but I'm not mesmerized by their wealth. I also live near a creek (a trickle in a cement lined channel because it's LA and that's how we do) in a neighborhood with a lot of palm and citrus trees. My dogs just ran outside because they heard squeaking. We keep traps and bait stations out year round. Ugh.

Rinna needs to keep away from the deep v necklines. Did Dorit get new boobs? I don't remember them being so obnoxious last season. I can't decide if Teddi's husband is hot or not. It's like he should be, but he's just not. I feel like Ericka's TH DSLs are drawn on kinda wonky and crooked. One time on Christmas my mom told me she didn't have any kids. I laughed at her and posted it on Facebook. I guess I did it wrong because I didn't have a douche write a book about it for me. For sure there's more to the story with Erika and her father because it just isn't adding up. I mean I guess he could just be a big bag of dicks, but it seems like it's more likely there's some background info we're not getting and I doubt it's in her soon to be best selling book. So did Rinna invite Erika to Tokyo to make sure it gets filmed or just to crawl further up Erika's ass? Dorit thought she was going to the polo match from Pretty Woman and dressed for that instead of whatever Teddi invited them to. They were quite the trio at the horse show. I can't remember the last time they showed one of the housewives cooking herself for a dinner party. I think maybe LVP cooked lunch for some of the ladies right after she got the ponies? So props to Dorit for that at least. I think her dinner party look was one of her better ones so far this season, but that's not saying much because she's had a lot of stinkers as of yet.

"The only way to use Hermes china and not be a poseur is if it is inherited from your grandparents." seems like a pretty arbitrary rule to me (may be paraphrased because I'm too lazy to look up the post that I quoted in my previous post). My point also stands that at some point someone had to buy the china in order for it to be inherited and that money wasn't always old and who the fuck cares how old it is anyway? I'm not saying Dorit wasn't tacky.

I believe the coming season of Below Deck Med was filmed in Italy, not Croatia. It seems like Bravo got a bulk discount on tickets to Italy since they have a lot of shows taking trips there and what not. Tree rats/roof rats/citrus rats are fairly common in LA and it seems like the problem was worse that last couple of years first with them looking for food due to the drought and then all the rain threw things out of whack. So I fully buy into her having a rat and not a mouse. So then would your grandparents be poseurs if they bought and used said china and your parents in turn if they used it since it was inherited from their parents and not grandparents? I guess it'd be okay if grandparents just stored it in the boxes and no one used it until you inherited it? Not saying Dorit isn't a poseur, just trying to get a handle on the arbitrary china rules. The show isn't happening in real time. The show was filmed months ago over the summer. The new house was purchased in the fall. It looks like she redid the old house and Maurico still ended up getting his way and getting a new one in Encino.

It was as planned as her stupid pill bag stunt last season and fell just as flat. Seems that she plans out all the "oh that Zany Lisa Rinna (and her family)" moments and mainly they just end up looking like she is either trying to hard or in the case of the Hamlets like they are actively trying to make people hate them.

Since Roman put the current set of tattoos on her it makes sense that they are connected to whatever he's trying to do.

At least Cindy Crawford's daughter looks like Cindy Crawford. Looking at pictures, I need to get some of that melon face cream Cindy shills because she looks like she hasn't aged a day in the last 20 years. In a lot of pictures and often on the show the brown haired one looks like she has mumps. I'm always like Rinna needs to take her to the doctor because her glands are obviously swollen and then realize it's just her face. I'm sure she'll grow out of it. But for now she's kind of a potato face. There's a marked difference between Christmas at Adrienne's and Brandi's. My dogs have never peed on a Christmas gift, but that might be because they are too lazy to get out of bed in December. I'm pretty sure my little one spends about 85% of her time in bed during the winter. The bigger one follows me around so she's up more.

I feel really bad (well, kinda bad) if I'm the one that broke the seal on calling the dark haired Hamlet a potato face 'out loud' -- you know everyone was thinking it but too polite to say it. Hamlet is an awesome nickname for them, btw, so Kudooz to @HunterHunted for coming up with that.

When I was 4 and my mom was pregnant with my sister my parents said I could name the baby, I guess to make me like her. I wanted to name her Coco Chanel and my parents reneged on our deal. I guess now I'm glad they didn't name her after a Nazi spy. I had a tough life back then of being forced to listen to John Cougar Mellencamp and not being allowed to name my sister after Nazis.

When I first saw the "Two weeks after the show..." line I thought it was going to say the got engaged. I was kind of surprised that they broke up and it was only 2 weeks after filming. They had some problems but didn't seem on the verge of a break up.

I know she's just a kid and it is mean of me to say and I should feel bad (I don't!), but I feel like Rinna's dark haired kid has too much of a potato face to be a model. And the other one, as pointed out, is too short. I guess at least they are not chub chubs living in the suburbs. I was wondering this too. My guess is they live somewhere way more normal than the other ladies but still kind of expensive so maybe like WeHo, or West LA, or a nice part of the valley.

I remember being 3 or 4 and throwing a giant fit because my parents wouldn't stop listening to their John Cougar Mellencamp album and I wanted to listen to Pat Benatar and I was thrashing around on the ground screaming about how I hated John Cougar and they just laughed at me.

I like the layer of LVP being the queen of diamonds (queen bee of the show) compared to Erika's just implying she's rich. I am sometimes amused by Erika, but her pinched nasally uninterested monotone vocal fry grates. Well, it's been shown more than once that she gets her fashion advice from Portia :) I think it was a joke based on the absurdity of her demanding an apology to Tom last season. I like her too. She's not my favorite housewife ever, but overall she's pretty innocuous and I think she's pretty and like seeing her hair and outfits. Sometimes there are misses but she's always taking risks and often they pay off. I actually like her glam holo top TH look except it doesn't translate to the setting and makes her head look weird, but it looked good when they showed her walking in it.

I can't decide who I dislike more, Rinna's kids or Mikey.

I'm starting to get excited, so no doubt it'll be a let down.

I dislike Peyton, but she might be my favorite because I like it when she's drunk and mean and it seems like that's often.

So did Bravo get a discount buying bulk plane tickets to Italy? It seems like all their shows are going to Italy.

What???? Is there a story behind that? I only pay attention to the various wives during their seasons. It sounds juicy and I'm giddy like a kid on Christmas.
