I recognize that being self conscious about height and hair can often become a man's Achilles heel. But one thing is consistent, short men always appear as though they're trying to prove something, or overcompensate, by being overly aggressive. Poor JT has everyone cracking jokes which must get him down. I've dated two men shorter than me (I'm 5'8") and both of them would get into loud verbal, or physical altercations over the simplest of interactions. I had to move on after I realized I would tense up whenever someone approached me, because I never knew what would set my date off. My mom called it the short man syndrome.

Sorry, but this made me laugh. I don't think age makes a difference when it comes to getting sloshed. Maybe older ones can pull it off easier because their bodies are accustomed to it? But being 61 and sloshed to me is neither here nor there, it means nothing to the alcoholic. When I first read this, I thought "yes, Karen is appealing to those who don't know she drinks so much..." But then I figured it out... Sheesh, talk about my missing the point.

I saw the recording and to me it was very pathetic. Here was a woman who at one time was beautiful, and perhaps desired, but her acting coquettish to the policeman was downright embarrassing. She behaved as if she was on a show outlining her pedigree.

As a teacher, this kills me. Yes, the word "seen" can be used but if it's attached to a subject it needs the helper 'have' or 'had'. But in the sentence you supplied, "aaargh" is right! They should have used saw or had seen. Exactly! If they took out Amanda, no one says "Myself went to town". That's when they'd be able to see it should be "Amanda and I", or "I and Amanda" but that is awkward as it sounds like an afterthought.

Yes! To everything you wrote. Your mother and my mother could have been sisters. And I see nothing wrong in what they passed down to us. I have always used a dictionary from 1910 when I taught because it came in handy to explain the proper definition of certain words (ie: [homophobic epithet]). It would always surprise me when people would take words that were used in everyday language and make them insults. Ain't is in my dictionary as the contraction for "am not" but even in 1910 it said it was never considered proper usage.

I have a major complaint about Judge Judy's communication, which has bothered me for years. I was a counselor in a former career and I used to be able to understand the clients learning style by tracking their eye movement, based upon how they retrieved memories. If they look straight ahead they were auditory retrievers, if they looked up and around they were visual retrievers, and if they looked down at the table they were kinesthetic retrievers. Eye tracking is not a procedure used for seeing whether people are lying, but rather to see where they access their memory to answer. In today's world, there will be more visual because of "seeing" information be it on tv, on their phone texts, etc. So I end up yelling at the TV every time Judy demands someone look her in the eye, while answering. I'd like for anyone to try an answer a question about a text while looking straight ahead. You have to visualize the text in order to share it. Last note, The reason I focused on how clients retrieve their memories was in order to teach them how to access the other two ways of receiving information. In the end you're hoping your client will be able to access all three ways of interpreting and sharing information. **Trivia**, if right handed people truthfully recall something you ask, they will look up and to the left. If they use look up to the right, they generally 'invented' details.

I wasn't implying your grammar isn't proper. The whole point of me sharing my 'quick fix' example was because I became aware of how difficult certain grammar "rules" are for many people. I only wanted to make a suggestion for anyone reading the forum thinking, 'I get those two (me I) confused, as well.' (I also question a child fully understanding the difference at 2 or 3.)

I can't seem to get Slice anymore, or at least not any of my shows, like HWs of... Cheshire, Potomac, Salt Lake City, and Beverly Hills. Once you download the Hulu app (and pay) then you can watch ALL the years of each show.

I finally gave in and ordered Hulu so I could watch my brain candy. A year ago I could set my TV to record, and I'd return home to binge on HWs, Below Deck, Villains, etc. In spring I saw the commercials advertising the new season... But week after week, nothing was shown in the TV guide. That's when I heard I had to download an app to watch. So now I have to pay Hulu on top of my regular TV package. That being said, I'm LOVING ❤️ season 17 of HW of Cheshire. I like the new additions (Ell is gorgeous and rational, so far). Nicole is miserable and defensive, as usual. Rachel still has blinders on (re: when she's in the wrong) and Lystra still runs hot & cold. I had to stop and rest on episode 7. Waiting on Nicole to be called out by a newbie for bad behaviour.

I've taught in the past, and this is a tough one for people to navigate because as youths, everyone is overly aware to use I as in "Amanda and I went to town". I always remind people to take the other(s) out of the draft sentence to see if it flows. "I went to town". (I is correct here.) "Amanda brought apples to my mom and I." Take out mom... "Amanda brought apples to I." (I is wrong, replace with me.)

If this is the case, I'm surprised more people aren't speaking out. I recognize organized religion often project subliminal messages re: various groups/beliefs they don't approve of, but I can't say I've ever looked up a church, and found a list, or summary, of things they're not tolerant of. Then again, I haven't been church shopping in decades.

This is appalling news, but I can't help but think that mugshot looks old. Is it actually from the day she was arrested?

Definitely! For whatever reason, Teddi and Kyle have a friendship that is closer than even her sisters. LVP and she had fun, but Kyle should have never helped orchestrate the confrontation with LVP about social media/texts re: dog. That wasn't an appropriate time. And I do believe Kyle regrets how it went down, but LVP will never interact with her again.

It's episodes like this where the writing brings it all home. I remember the NZ movie "What We Do..." and the constant cultural gags, and general writing, hooked me. Then came this series, and I have NEVER been disappointed. When UK Ghosts ended, I still had this show, but now, I'm only left with US/Canada's Ghosts.

I watched all three and only the 10 mins or so, 3/4 in, was different. I got to see all 3 in a row on regular TV. (On FX) No surprise the vampires are old money Republicans, 😆 🤣
