    The guys/gal going abroad aren't easy on the eyes either.

    There are several men in my hometown that have gone abroad and married  Filipino or Chinese women because they consider them more submissive than North American women. That was their words. They want someone willing to cook, clean, and sex them up every night with no nagging, or complaining. It's a total misconception they have of women in general. 

    I know someone in my small midwestern town who did just that. For the very same reasons. He admitted it, as well.

    Anyone else wonder if Karine actually did the pregnancy test or whether she just splashed some water on it or something?

    Not only that....Paul didn't know how to read the results. She could have been lying, and there is, indeed, a baby. One that will be very premature.

    I found Angela constantly grabbing for Michael's private parts nauseating. How he made it through that night, I'll never know.  She doesn't belong there; doesn't belong in this situation. She needs to find a nice 50-something year old man in Georgia, to go out to eat and to tractor pulls with.

    What?  The "it's really a guy" statements have nothing to do with anyone being transgender.  It's about someone portraying themselves as female online when they are really male.

    Thank you.  That's what I would have imagined was behind such statements, as well. But you said it much better than I could have!

    I also think you just get treated better by airlines if you dress up a bit. I know there are studies that show that you are more likely to get bumped up a cabin level if you are better dressed. I try to walk the line where I look nice but can be comfortable. And when I fly overnight to the UK, I bring a change of clothes for first thing in the morning

    Ebonics AAVE, African American Vernacular English is a legitimate dialect with its own syntax and grammar. It shares some grammatical rules with the African languages of the people brought here in chains.   There is some evidence that it developed,  in part, as a way for enslaved people to "speak"in code, while in bondage. 

    <--- has spent some time in the last few years studying anthropological linguistics while earning a degree in History and Anthropology.

    As an English major (at one time), it used to make me cringe to hear "ax" instead of "ask".  So I researched it. And learned that "ax" (for "ask") has been around since the 8th century, and is an Old English verb.  I don't shudder quite so much, now when I hear it. :)

    Maybe someone can confirm, but I'm pretty sure Rachel was Skyping with Jon at the time she said "Papa", not her own father.

    I think she was talking to her dad. She said to the baby something like, "Let's talk to papa"...and I was incredulous.....until I saw her skyping with her dad.

    If you eliminated the ads and the "last times" and "coming ups" this show would be 45 minutes max!

    Rachel's other daughter is staying with her father and I agree with the others who say he probably refused to let her be on the show.  As anyone who has ever watched the show and has some sense would.

    Hmm....thinking about Ricky's possibly "fake" date.  Maybe the scammer sent the text saying she will be there at 7:30, to get Ricky to stay at the restaurant while they are back at his hotel room, stealing his stuff???

    I thought we saw Rachel's older daughter in the first show..or am I confusing her with another child?

    OK - maybe I am old and have lost any amount of romance I ever had - but I CRINGE any time these people talk about "The love of my life."  Do they ALL get their ideas of relationships from soap operas and romance novels?  I have never met anyone in real life who uses that phrase and that includes people just getting married and people like me - married 30 plus years.   This implies that if this does not work out - you are screwed!  There is no one else in the ENTIRE WORLD for you.  Maybe this explains the desperation?

    I also love how people are able to determine so many personality traits (all of them positive by the way) from a picture and texts.  How do you know the person is kind?  You have never seen them interact with anyone.  Maybe they are rude to service people or kick puppies in their spare time.  And the people who think this stranger will be a terrific stepfather/mother are ALL kinds of delusional.  I don't even have kids but have to say, I wouldn't trust a random stranger to care for my cats without making sure they actually didn't hate them.

    As many other people have said Angela needs to own a mirror.  I hate the cold shoulder look with a passion but at least most of those shirts have actual shoulders with necklines - not spaghetti straps that will fall down and expose your bra!  At least when Scottie was showing hers it appeared to be a somewhat pretty bra - not some limp beige horror.

    My thoughts re:  Ricky's "girlfriend".  This is not even a real person.  This is just a pretty picture of someone photo-shopped to look like the "fantasy".   I'm thinking this is some guy running this same scam on multiple people.

    Michael in Nigeria REALLY just wants a green card.   He is willing to take a deep breath and accept anything - grandma (possibly grandpa) - that will get him to the US.

    No, they get them from Ed Sheeran lyrics.

    @Toaster Strudel.  Marry me now.  That's the funniest recap EVER.  

    "Testicurlarly involved"  Will forthwith be proudly used in my vernacular.  But let's don't shun the importance of the penis as divining rod.

    "Commandant Jesse" it is.  I am currently baptizing him in absentia with the most sacred dog bowl water. He certainly does consider hisself as keeper of all of the secrets that have escaped philosophers for eons.

    When Sext Nigerian sees Meemaw Angie running towards him...my head played the theme from Baywatch as her ample boobage was aflappin' in slo-mo.  Pretty sure I was sporting a WTF face, too. 

    Gotta hand it to Molly, she at least knows how to keep giant mammaries in an upright & locked position.  The 90 Day franchise should hire her as Breasticle Wrangler.  There is an immediate need.

    I'm dead.

    If I traveled for day with a baby to a country I've supposedly never been to before and then find out I've been stood up at the airport and have to take myself, the baby, and my luggage on a train to meet the person who didn't show up at a train station I supposedly know nothing about, I would be ready to scream. This better be producer drama because Rachel is much too complacent to be real.  

    Also, Paul finds out his five crates of sex toys, police documents, and fetish clothing are nowhere to be found, and he shrugs and rides off into the sunset with his Internet-cheating girlfriend. Oh, well.

    There isn't enough valium in the world for this to be possible. 

    Most of us would scream...if we didn't have a production team, 10 feet away, waiting to lend a hand.

    How did Angie even get a visa? The listed visa requirements say you should supply bank statements/have enough money for your stay or at least have in invitation to visit by a Nigerian citizen who would take responsibility for you. It doesn't sound like she'd have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of, so why would the Nigerian government allow her to come there when it doesn't seem like she has the means to afford the basics?

    Maybe Angie is holding out on us. Angie drives a luxury car, with leather interior.   Maybe Angie takes her mom's SS money, files as head of household, and takes all kinds of free money.

    I have a friend who’s a very nice guy, successful job, good manners, no kids, attractive face, he stays fit but he’s 5’4- you’d be amazed how many women wouldn’t give him the time of day because of that. 

    But there’s something ELSE wrong with this dude. I don’t know what yet. 

    My husband is 5'4". I'm 5'3", so for us, it works.  Thank goodness I didn't let something like his height make me turn him down when he asked for a date!

    Chris is really trying to capitalize on the military trade. He has Fort Lockers and now Fort Knockers. I wonder how many other "Fort" businesses he has.  I think Chris is shady AF. What legit business would hire David or Paul.

    There was another couple that hinted of catfish. The single father and the Phillipina (she never smiled/showed her teeth). He went to her parents and wouldn't eat the food. I can't remember their names. He was also looking for the hot girl.

    Is he near Fort Knox, or another Fort? That would be plausible, then.

    I saw a photo of Paul with David Poor and his best friend Chris about a week ago.  Supposedly Paul was offered and accepted the job at the storage unit that David Poor rejected!!  

    OH...THAT job...!  I saw that story too, and had no idea what "job" they were talking about. I thought David took the storage job.

    That is such a sad statement  Steven was breathtaking back in the day.

    Jesse's dad is scary.  I don't know where he got the 'nads to tell Darcy, "you're not all that..." I was like, are you kidding me, buddy? Have you looked in the mirror lately?  He looks like a perpetual halloween mask.

    Does Paul have a job?  If so, how can he take off all this time to go to Brazil?  If not, how does he afford the stuffed animals?!

    If my family knew I was taking my baby to meet a man I never met before with a criminal record for assault, they'd be trying to lock me in my house to keep me from going to the airport.  Questionable motherhood choice by Rachel.

    I feel sad for Angela.  She just isn't too bright, but she seems like a decent person.  At the very least, I give her credit for taking care of her mother and having a job where she probably works hard.  That's more than we an say for some people on this show.

    A lot of IT people work remotely.  Maybe he works out of Mom's basement.
