I love you, KFB! I wish I could cuddle you up! :)

Why would you ever remove an off-topic joke about Ramona? I will wonder about it forever...

I think the oldest bride had it in for the youngest bride, the one that won. She said some pretty rude comments about her throughout, like 'she likes to drink too much, she's very young, I've been there, done that', I thought the younger one got a little tipsy, but so what? It was at a wedding and she wasn't acting crazy or rude or obnoxious. Also, they made a big deal about her having the same dress as the last bride, but is that her fault? They acted as if she purposely stole the dress out from under the Country Bride. How did she know what dress that last bride would wear unless the last bride told everyone the model #, name, designer, etc, and showed a picture of it to everyone ahead of time, and why would she do that? The Older Bride said something like, 'the last bride wore it best', in a definitive , kind of mean way, like she was fighting for her friend or something. Ummm, no she didn't. That dress did nothing for her and looked much bettter on the second bride with 'unlimited budget'. 'Unlimited Budget' had mediocre food, limited apps, no candy, dessert bar, no chocolate fountain, no ice cream bar, no midnight food truck/Sunday NYT, no dj dancers, no take home/gift bags, no lights with her name on the walls or dance floors, she didn't show up in a Bentley or Rolls, and very modest too-small centerpieces. I think there were a couple of roses maybe? Certainly no orchids or lillies or anything 'unlimited budget'. I've been to bar mitzvahs with more bells and whistles. She definitely had a budget. (Not that there's anything wrong with that, I had last minute carnations as my centerpieces when I got married 21 years ago and we paid for everything ourselves, and were saving for a house. So our budget was definitely limited.) Older Golf Bride's wedding looked like a nightmare that I would be forced to attend out of some obligation. Ugh. Dark, cold, boring as shit golf doesn't belong at a wedding. Uncomfortable, weird dance floor set-up with too-bright lights, unappetizing-looking food (the food scenes on these shows usually make me so hungry, not at this one!) Her dress made her look terrible. Does she not own a mirror? Cute bolero jacket would have done wonders for her. What is this obsession with strapless. And sweetheart necklines? There are other necklines, people! (The MOST gorgeous dress I ever saw on this show was a bride that wore a vintage, 50s tea length dress with a full skirt and yes, sleeves. It. Was. Stunning. So elegant, she looked like she came off a Grace Kelly movie. If I could do it over again....sigh....) Country Bride looked like Pinterest threw up all over that barn! Oh my! And some might think that displaying the grandmother's wedding gown was cool, I thought it was creepy...interesting, but creepy. The mismatched china was beautiful, but the way she layed the table was funny. You don't stack the tea cup and it's saucer right on top of the salad plate, you dolt! Lol lol! I know little about formal, victorian place settings with the millions of forks and finger bowls, etc, but even I could see how silly that looked. Cup and saucer to the right behind the water goblet. And where was the water glass? At the bar, I guess...

Would have been cool for Tamra to offer to send a trainer to Shannon. They could come all decked out in that horrible Cut Fitness logo Tamra and Eddie are always wearing when they're on camera, but they would actually be helping Shannon and getting in a free commercial for their bidness. They could teach Shannon how to use her body alone to get a good workout, like they do in the army, since Shannon hates using machines. Stupid Tamra, better just to be bitch about it, scowl and complain about Shannon not using her 'services'.

Agree 100%. Tamra is incapable of having a long-lasting female friendship. There are people like that. My daughter had a 'friend' like that, had no idea how to be a friend without going on the attack over something or other...this kid had a new 'friend' every couple of months and there was always non-stop drama. I see people on those cute little scooters all the time now. A co-worker tore a muscle and zipped around the office on it for a couple of months, crutches seem so outdated now...why someone would criticize anyone who needs one or could use one is bizarre...why in the world would that be a problem to anyone?

My dear friend calls it “having shit on your mustache”, as in, when you have shit on your mustache towards someone, everything they do stinks. Sometimes a friend just works a nerve one too many times and I will develop shit on my mustache. Even the most minor infractions drive me crazy. Time apart usually cures it. I can see Bethenny running very hot in a friendship. Very intense. Taking Carole on vacations, texting all day every day...etc. those type of intense relationships burn out very fast, very dramatically. If Bethenny had a bit more insight, she would have pulled back a bit and taken a break. It would have lowered the intensity level. But the whole thing got so ugly on both of their parts and just spun so out of control, it’s unrecoverable.

Then Ramoner saying “thank you” and Bethenny—without even a glance in her direction, without skipping a beat—“you’re welcome”. Awesome.

Agree with all! I would feel sorry for Dorinda if she wasn’t such a straight-up BITCH! Her screaming at Sonja to “SHUT UP!” was disgusting! Who the hell is she to tell anyone to shut up?? Sonja barely even got any words in so far. Dorinda was a steamroller and didn’t stop flapping her gums for a breath! Really dislike her now! Carole was VERY angry. She hates Bethenny now. I think Tinsley breaking up then getting back together with Scott is for show...so that he doesn’t have to film and can stay far away from this shit-show. I think they cooked it up. Together when not filming, broken up when filming. Convenient. Ramoner caught some hell from Andy about having a juicy conversation with Luann OFF camera while they were filming in Mexico. She looked scared and knew she was in trouble! Lol I caught it! SO GOOD!!! Lol

There can be a depression that sets in when a long-term illness knocks you on your ass. When my husband went through wrenching back pain for almost a year and couldn’t walk without resting or sleep unless it was in a recliner, or when I had shingles for 2 months, I cried because it didn’t feel like I would ever have my old life back. I was so sad that I took just a normal pain-free day for granted and missed just going to the store... I get what Eddy’s going through. :(

Tamra is incapable of having an adult face-to-face conversation with a friend about something the friend is doing that upsets or insults her. The only way Tamra knows to communicate is through little digs apropos of nothing, and trash-talking the friend to everybody else. She’s such a piece of crap.

Maybe Kelly took a cue from Shannon and decided to dress up in theme for her morning of feeding homeless...

Unfortunately, if I were in my 20s, I would have gone for the other 2, sigh...well, live and learn. That’s why people make stupid choices in their 20s, they’re in their 20s! :)

Tamra inserts herself into EVERY situation! I noticed it the first time when Jim bellino tried to have a discussion with Terry during a finale a few years ago. Jim wanted to confront Terry about shit Terry said about Alexis. and I was so looking forward to that weasly little punk bitch getting his ass handed to him by Neanderthal Belino. But nope, Tamra had to insert herself into that discussion and plopped herself right down immediately, as if it concerned her, and the whole thing was over before it began. She’s so concerned about missing camera time, she runs off to Mexico immediately after Eddie’s operation. I wouldn’t be surprised if the coolness from Eddie is partly residual resentment from that, among other things. Hey Tamra, don’t you have a date rape to plan with your son?

Along with the toddlers. Everyone out.

Awful. I hated it too. That’s not what you do when the poor kid gets it wrong the first time. You correct it. Not make fun of him. On camera. Kids are smarter than people think, and if she thinks she can make fun of him like that and he’s so obliviously unaware that she’s doing it, she’s stupider than she seems. That’s how kids learn, she couldn’t even be bothered to correct him, she would rather go for a cheap laugh. Something tells me math isn’t her thing either.

Vickie’s lack of loyalty is disgusting. I don’t know why I’m surprised after watching her antics for 10 years. If she had any brains she would see what a good ally (and bad enemy!) kelly could be. She’s her own worst enemy and I’m really seeing how dumb she is...she has no idea how to maneuver politically, and will always have some screaming “FUCK YOUUUUU”, at her on a bus.

Got it! Didn't know all of her history. Thanks! It's obvious she's missing her old life. Her saying to Bethenny that this is not how she thought she would end up, or words to that effect, was so sad, so simple yet poignant. I'm beginning to get her. I can imagine her waking up one morning and thinking, omg, I'm on a tv show where I get sloppy-drunk and fight with other women. It's almost like she used to move in the upper echelons of society, then found herself mud-wrestling at the strip club under the overpass...

Full moon? Lol lol ;)

Deleted post about Dennis.

(Sigh) ... It was a joke and I never belittled it. I think Columbia is a very difficult school to get into, no matter who you are (although connections always help). Get off your high-horse.

You are so right! He introduced her to a fabulous, glamorous life with glamorous people! This is not the world dorinda came from, I don't think her family was wealthy. I remember the episode with Dorinda and Carole and her husband's ashes in London. The meet up in the hotel with Dorinda's friends from that time with Richard, long gone by. They all seemed so sophisticated and elegant and lush. Even the lighting was beautiful and they all looked amazing and seemed almost fictional, elevated...I was heartbroken for her then. It seemed like a world she's not a part of anymore...now she's with john, scavenging for left-over couture in the back of a dry cleaners, probably a dress one of those London women would have left behind. It's straight-up Edith Wharton novel....no wonder she drinks. I think I would too. :(

Yes! I liked Jill first season and really detested her right after. I was a regular on the. 'I hate Jill zarin' web site, may Lynn RIP. I think the only housewife I'm consistently loyal to is Vanderpump-- so far. I'm not sure who to root for at reunion, I hope they all get a good ass-kicking for one thing or another, except maybe Tinsley The Butterfly, fluttering through life...she's the only one that's been pretty harmless... my boss was a mess. We were all shocked that she wasn't doing her thang in her car or bathroom, we all said the same thing. I guess that's addiction for you, you lose all sense of how you appear to everyone around you, you think you are fooling everyone. She would fall asleep at her desk as well everyday. It was my only brush with drug use up close, thank goodness. I will say, she was the best boss I ever had because she was too wasted to micromanage me.

My ex boss was addicted and used to snort them at her desk. She would crush the pills. Totally true and we were all shocked by it.

Thank you! Can't stand going after other posters! I'm here to bash some housewives, damnit! That's my right here! Lol. Tiles behind bars, drunks with mugshots calling out other drunks without mugshots, college degrees I would kill for but want to belittle now, icemakers, dating young slackers, wearing diapers, etc, etc, ETC! Please don't lecture me on what I can and cannot bash. Let me bash them in peace without getting bashed myself, lol...that's why I'm here, wasting time instead of working. As my best friend always says, opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink! Lol

I like her generally, but have never watched a minute of any of her shows or bought any of her products or have any desire to do so. I just think anything outside of real housewives is too much Bethenny.
