  1. Maybe. It was really random and then we didn't even see them.
  2. WHAT?! Those boxes were like what wedding dresses get stored in!
  3. With you on all of this; I like WFH a lot, but would take a job (nearby, no more long commute!) that wanted me to do a couple of days in person, just for a change of scenery. I'm lucky; my current position doesn't care if I split my time with household stuff, as long as I am not delaying anything. It makes weekends so much better now, because I don't have to cram all kinds of boring to-do list items into just 2 days "off."
  4. WAIT! What was in those big boxes that Scheana was carrying into Ally's house? All I know is that I wondered that last night, then Ally started talking about Taylor Swift, we saw a video from god knows when of Ally singing, and then I never found out what was in the boxes! Also, Jo seems like a "pick me" girl. I find her annoying.
  5. YES! I almost added, "Hopefully the 'what if...?' doesn't make it worse." I have that: even after something (not everything, always, thank the gods -- just certain things) ends up more or less OK, a little time will pass, but then I start to ruminate over what could have happened. It's a nasty cycle.
  6. If I were being generous, I would think that Lala is telling Ariana this because she --Lala -- learned a lesson by icing people out (and then later un-icing them anyway). But a normal person would, you know, actually say that part instead of judging and yelling and being a real hypocrite. They all break the fourth wall and have been doing it for a while. Just the fact that they openly mention Ariana doing Chicago and DWtS is an example, as is the notion of people on Instagram bashing Scheana. It is possible that it could, in a weird roundabout way; if she can glean from it that shit happens but typically doesn't end in a tragedy,* she may be able to make some steps in her OCD issues. It sucks that Summer was hurt to that degree, and I personally can't imagine not spinning out a little bit over it in Scheana's place, but the experience could also serve a purpose similar to exposure therapy. *Not that she doesn't already know that; the OCD just makes people struggle to feel confident of that.
  7. What the hell is up with the Kleenex lady cooking food on the stove? Is she trying not to sneeze? Does she want to sneeze but it won’t come out? Is she about to die? Whatever it is, she’s really overdoing it with the face acting. And, ugh, Stouffer’s! “Meaty cheesy” is almost, but not quite, as stupid as “happyfull.”
  8. Haha, OK! I was wondering why that part was not upsetting!
  9. I'm sorry -- I am really not trying to be an asshole, but does this commercial actually say "diapers changes"?
  10. What I wonder, though, is what is it that we'd want the ads to say? Obviously the manufacturer wants people to know that (and maybe how and why) the product is different than deodorant made only for armpits. So would a more clinical, scientific style be better? Or if the "you can use it on your delicate junk" part was in text only at the bottom of the screen? Or if the person talking about it wasn;t that particular lady? I'm just wondering. Personally, I don't find them inappropriate or anything, but also not silly or funny or especially relatable either. The other thing I don't get about the responses to Lumē is the annoyance that it works for 72 hours, the "just take a shower!!!" thing. I don't think it's encouraging people to neglect normal, routine hygiene, it's just letting them know that if external forces get in the way of it, it's all good -- or, you know, if someone has a legit medical problem that causes some smell issues in this regard. In other news, I actually saw a commercial that made me laugh. I think it was for something to do with AARP, maybe? It showed a guy -- obviously someone who's been an adult for a while -- fall off a skateboard and say, very deadpan, "That was not radical." I don't know why that last part was so funny to me, but it was.
  11. When I see the three Ps commercial -- the one with the Ps with four lines after them (P_ _ _ _) -- all I can think of is Cheech in From Dusk Til Dawn saying, "pussy, pussy, pussy."
  12. God damn it. Take that back -- I really don't want to have to find a new job at my age!
  13. Honestly, maybe couples should take “live separately” breaks here and there — a reevaluation, or at least a recalibration. I really don’t think I’d be opposed to it in my own life sometimes! ETA: Not that I have a spare home for this purpose. But these rich people do!
  14. And, as usual, I will counter with the fact that we see like 12 minutes of their lives per week -- and far less of PK, who is shown exponentially less than the women. So, we really have no way of knowing what he's doing or not doing, and merely a tiny glimpse into what she's doing. Maybe he nags her. My comment wasn't about only your comment; there are others too, but mostly I mean the general societal attitude. But yeah, it is sexist though. Agree to disagree, whatever...it's all fine, I don't care.
  15. Is 50 "geriatric" now? I truly hope not!
  16. I was with you on the generation thing too, but then I figured that it could also mean that it got all the way to this particular bird and then stopped, hence, "skipping" him. Maybe it picked up again with that bird's kid, if he has one? That said, if that's how they meant it, it really takes away from the intended jokey manner of the commercial to make us stop and think about it (and ponder as to whether he has a child!), because it does deviate from what I have always understood to be the generally accepted use of the phrase.
  17. So, Dorit is Dorit and that's...whatever, but I don't think that some of the things we have heard her say about her possibly unaddressed needs sound unreasonable to me. Same with Kyle, to be honest. I find the "nag" label, along with that tired old "even her husband can't stand her" trope, to be pretty sexist though, and a low-hanging-fruit kind of thing (plus, what does it say about a guy who is allegedly being nagged so much, yet he doesn't just make a decision to...not be? You don't want to be part of a partnership? Then don't be). I mean, who gets "nagged" usually? In my experience, it's people who consistently don't do what they have been asked to do and agreed to do. People -- even these fool HWs -- deserve to be allowed to ask for what they need in a marriage. If it falls on deaf ears, I guess they have to ask again. That's not "nagging."
  18. She probably wants -- and would be relieved to have -- all of it out there (whatever "it" may comprise) once and for all, but doesn't want to be the one to do it.
  19. I want a slight tightening, but I don't want to look like I had one -- who will help me?! It's 2024; surely someone has perfected this by now...and made it, like, $200 with a 2-hour recuperation! Is this too much to ask?! I never had a real, ongoing dislike of Kyle -- she was OK, sometimes an asshole, other times fine. But this season, yikes (and that is giving leeway for the understandable stress-related reactions to her marital shit and to her friend's death). I hate this. Some news outlets do this about the former POTUS's grown kids (plural, so not just the teenage one) -- it's so weird! (<NOT A POLITICAL OPINION; just making a comment!)
  20. For this alone, Scheana could decide to drop him once and for all. And what was it even about? Was he trying to say, "Not my fault -- she's a vixen no man can resist"?
  21. He may be supportive. You’re more astute than I am if you can surmise that he is from this show. Neither that display in the bikini store nor the scene when Tori came in convinced me. i don’t hate Brock and I don’t love Scheana, and I also don’t think that their marriage looks like it’s about to crash and burn. But he seems sort of clueless to me.
  22. Well, we may not see that in the 5 minutes per week we see him. It's always possible. Or maybe he was anxious and/or has bitten, past tense. Who knows? I just hope that James is taking steps to address anything that may be going on with him so that he can be a happy dog who feels safe always. And again, those big mitts on him and his curly hair -- I love Hippie Graham! As for Brock, I guess his ideas on what may benefit Scheana are perfectly valid. But is he telling them to her?
  23. To piggyback on my previous peeve, customer service chat windows that close on you if you look at another page (like, you might need to do to find an order number or something!). I hate even recalling this, but at one of my cats' final vet visit, I was sitting in the waiting room crying, with her in a carrier on my lap. Although the appointment was scheduled for after the regular office hours, a couple of other people were still there and about to leave. Well, one of them -- an older lady -- kept peering into the carrier and asking me about her. She just didn't put together what was happening (and, maybe she didn't know it was a FINAL visit, but I was crying -- like I am now, a little bit -- so at the very least, she should have surmised that it was something upsetting to do with my beloved cat). I ended up yelling at her a little, just a second before my boyfriend interceded. I am not proud of that, but I'm also not really sorry for it either.
  24. Another thing I just thought of re. inappropriate laughing…an example of why I probably didn’t articulate very well in previous posts: I'm not in the habit of reveling with glee when old dudes* drive off the road, but I did laugh a lot here when we all talked about Tom Girardi and his switchback mishap(s?). I know that none of us was like, “Yes! An octogenarian nearly met a fiery demise!” but it was a funny discussion anyway. i just remembered that because I’m watching the second Housewife and the Hustler. I didn’t even realize that there was a follow-up. *Not that he doesn’t deserve some kind of karmic shit-show, mind you!
  25. OH MY GOD, phone reps, stop saying "uh-huh" over me when I am in the middle of giving you the long series of numbers you asked me for!
