The fact that this garbage Michael compared his own abuse from Kristine to that inflicted on a tiny, orphaned, health-compromised, vulnerable little girl made me nuts! He gotta go to hell and soon. I cannot even think about this without feeling like I want to scream. How dare he? I hope something awful happens to him. (Or maybe not -- if his kids need him to be safe, then I take it back. Maybe.) Why couldn't she do that with one of her other existing kids then? If its true, it's such a random and convoluted idea. Plus, did they think they could just toss her to the wolves and she'd just...forget? Did they not have a plan for when exactly this happened?

I am rewatching this and I am just getting madder and madder at those Barnetts. Disgusting people. Cruel, stupid, intolerable dickholes. Ugh, I should probably stop watching until the new show comes on; I’m just yelling too much and I wish I could slap those people.

Ugh, and another peeve follows -- why does this always happen?

Thanks, all! I prefer the buy empty and fill with whatever you want, partially because of aesthetic preferences and partially because of product preferences (cruelty-free/vegan and annoyingly sensitive skin, as you may already know from the FitBit band rant, haha!)-- apparently I'm a fancy delicate diva who just wants it all in the world of soap!

You mean you just refill the container you buy the soap in, not an empty container that you buy on its own?

I hate all of the refillable soap dispensers! Or at least the 5 or 6 I have tried. Why do they all clog and/or drip? Come on. Does anyone have one that doesn't do these annoying things?!

Maybe. But it's not up to Erica or anyone else to create a "sliding scale of appropriateness" based on some random perception of other people's kids' hypothetical sex knowledge. And, again, who the hell cares about Charlie Sheen? Maybe his behavior is part of the reason that Denise had some vested interest in keeping things clean for her kids (and the other ones who were there).

I understand all of this, but Denise (if I remember correctly) asked Erica, a guest at Denise's house/event, to keep it down or shut up about it or whatever. It's not up to Erica to speculate on, rate, and compare what Denise's kids (and other kids who were not Denise's) may or may not already know, and then use that to justify her behavior, instead of simply speaking more quietly or saving the topic for another time. And, I have no kids, but I don't think it would be cool for a friend (or coworker) to casually assume and suggest that my adolescent daughter was wise in the ways of threesomes. The fact that Denise is being a little kooky about it now (and was married to Charlie Sheen, which has absolutely zero to do with whether Erica's behavior was inappropriate) doesn't mean Erica was not a dickhole. Other people don't get to decide these things. All she had to do was...oh, I don't know...respect Denise's not at all outlandish wishes. Like, did it mean that much to them to talk about threesomes loudly at a barbecue?

This ^ is what bugs me most! I don't care that much that the tattoos are crappy -- believe me, I know plenty of people with tattoos that took all of 12 seconds to apply and/or are just bad (and a few of these people are tattooers!). What's making me nuts is how they're all acting like it's, as you mention, "hardcore." Just be quiet about it! Or get out more, you dumbs!

Kyle puts a lot of thought into her tattoos? OK. I would hate to see one that was not thought out. They are all ugly (OK, that's admittedly subjective) and poorly applied. Everyone needs to stop making a big deal about those those six -- six, damn it, not just one or two! -- barely-there tattoos, as if only the most iconoclastic of people get them. And the fact that she is comparing hers to Morgan whatever-her-name-is is just funny. They're bad, Kyle -- all six are very bad.

The inimitable Keith Morrison from Dateline. Also, re. running over something: my BF did that last week. He was unable to swerve due to traffic and his year-old car is totaled.

I have tried 5 or 6 different Fitbit bands in various materials (stainless steel, fabric, silicone, some kind of stretchy thing), and every single one has caused relentless itching! What the hell? To be clear, my peeve is me, not each and every style of Fitbit band. Has anyone else with horrifically sensitive skin have any suggestions?

Or they could not be dopes who need to “test” a table! I’m just kidding (mostly). They should have gotten the Lack coffee table from Ikea instead; it literally has 5 or 6 pieces total.

Oh my god, I forgot all about Carlton! I always thought she looked like Mrs. Baylock from The Omen.

They vary -- I think the 40-minute ones would be an hour on regular TV, and what would be 2 hours there are about 90 on Peacock.

But what if i used severance money to buy a home? (I didn't, but had I waited a couple of years to buy, I could have.) Or if I was paid for the rest of my life for some kind of injury I sustained? Maybe I would no longer be at the job, but the money would still be mine. Regardless, though, the point was that the money was/is hers.

Yeah! And considering there are usually 2 people, they could move the thing AND wipe the spill! Come ON, man!

Really? I personally dig the long, in-depth ones (I love minutiae, haha!), but many of them are only 40 minutes.

You may know this already, but the Peacock app has a bazillion seasons of Dateline! Not the one I have been wanting, but a ton.

And they always push the spilled liquid toward whatever it is they're trying to save instead of getting ahead of the liquid.

Ooh, sex shaming. Cool. What is actually cool* is that I typed "sex shaming" just as Watch What Crappens said "sex shaming." Oooh! *Not really; it's just a bit of a boring day here.

Agree. My job pays me money that I use to pay my mortgage. That doesn't mean that my employer helped me to buy my house. When that money was paid to Sutton, for whatever reason, it became her money. So, she used her money to create her business.

OOOH! I can live with "glazed" (though I don't think that sounds like a positive for a body lotion at all!) if I also get "all knowing."

That makes sense, I think, but I also think it's weird that he says "it's still early" at all. Obviously, as it's still light out, but also because if she wanted to be home at a certain time, prompting him to comment that it is earlier than that time, why were they going home sooner than they had to and did she cancel whatever it was that she needed to conclude the date for and then go to a bunch more places with him? I think that it would make sense without the "early" comment or if it was dark the whole time. That said, maybe she didn't have to be home at a certain time; she was just making sure she had an out in case she hated him!

Just saw a credit card commercial with a couple on a date. They walk to the girl’s door, which she tells him is hers, and the guy says “it’s still early, want to get coffee?” They do and then do 20 other date things. So “still early” for what? This makes it sound like she had some kind of time limit for this date, yet she then was able to go do a bunch of other activities. Also, it was even earlier before they walked to her house—why didn’t he propose coffee before that? Oh, and not that this matters on its own, but what time of day was this date anyway? It was clearly light outside when he said “still early.” Also, some lotion commercial where the woman is speaking in like a coffeehouse-poetry way and refers to skin as, among various other adjectives, “glazed.” For whatever reason, I do not like that, haha!
