Cosmic Muffin

I would be mortified to have cameras capture my potty chair while I wallowed around in my junk. I'd clear that out before the cameras showed up. She must just not care.

Anyone else here old enough to remember The Real World - Los Angeles? Remember in the opening credits, Jon the virgin country singer got the "True Story" part of the standard Real World opening lines. When I see True Tori I hear it sung in Jon's voice. Which doesn't help. So not even pretending that Dean is a part of the story (i'ts just True Tori, no Dean or kids in the title), he's just a prop in her fairy tale soul mate story. Any guy who flattered her would have done. I don't believe in soul mates, but I would think that if one does, when they show up they aren't about to be deployed, or run off to work with doctors without borders, etc. Or they aren't, you know, married with kids. If there is some predestined relationship, that person should show up ready to be in a relationship. But of course, these two aren't soul mates. Something else a good therapist would work on.

When they filmed this they didn't know it would run juxtaposed against her being in the hospital for over a week for ebola, I mean sinus infection and bronchitis, I mean the enterovirus, I mean exhaustion... That really makes people view the episode through the lens of Tori is totally mentally ill, self absorbed and not really interested in doing anything to get better. But she'll do anything for attention. Those poor, poor kids.

The Lifetime schedule says this episode should be re-running right now, but instead they're airing Prison Wives or whatever. I had a family thing earlier but I was looking forward to jammies, pizza and this trash, not the Prison Wives trash (standards, I have them, who knew?). I wonder if this is just a glitch or if the episode or ratings are so low that they've replaced the re-run with Prison Wives.

I love this show. I wish they'd re-run it more often, instead of the other trashy stuff they air.

These shows run together, so I'm sorry if this wasn't the episode where she talked about cheating on her first boyfriend when she was 15 with someone from 90120. Actually, I think that clip is in more than one show. Anyway, for most people on their 2nd marriage I wouldn't bring up what they did when they were 15/dating their first boy or girl friend, except the way she described how they got together is a lot like how she and Dean got together. Not just the cheating. She seems emotionally arrested, as well as self centered. I think someone (a real therapist, their t.v. therapist, Dean, ...someone) should bring this up to her. Not just to provoke her, but she hates to hear about how she's a cheater too, and she's a cheater twice over. Again, I wouldn't hold high school behavior against most adults, but I think that cheating on her first boyfriend is relevant to how she got together with Dean, and how they both conduct relationships.

On Pit Bulls and Parollees, Zeno mother to son, "It's not Pit Bull the singer!" I thought this show was going to be so stupid but I love it so much!

I like Chyka too! I hope season 2 is good to her. Thanks, QuinnM, for the clarification. In US English, someone who is spunky has pluck, or nerve, and goes and gets what they want. Spunk the noun can mean the same thing, but I think the main meaning of the noun spunk is the stuff men contribute to baby making. So. I was concerned/confused about what Lydia was saying...

What does "a big spunk" mean in Australian English? I know what "spunk" is in American English, but the syntax isn't quite right (thank god!).

Hi, All! I'm a TWOPer who finally got my new registration sorted out. Did I see inch long roots on Lydia's hair? Or is that the new "ombre" thing I've heard about? It didn't look good. But I did just give her an opening (heh!) to make a joke about her hombre loving vag, so, you're welcome, Lydia. The last couple of episodes and this reunion are more satisfying given the spoilers about the cast changes. One down, one to go.
