Erika Jayne, Girardi or whatever her true name is simply nuts—or a master manipulator. Or, hell, something as common as a phony, as ugly and self-centered on the inside as she may be good looking on the outside. Reminding us again that "beautiful people" are not necessarily so and that a book's cover may be and often is misleading. This woman—who knows what arrangement she has with her rich husband—is a hyper-pampered jerk; one we may argue has not known real hardship for most of her adult life, at least not since she struck gold with daddy warlocks Girardi. Yet she indulges in grotesque displays of wealth, taking her "glam squad" everywhere she goes, something that until recently not even actual royalty did. A totally unpleasant personality. Did I leave anything out?
But of all the bullshit we have seen on these franchises—and there's plenty to go around, as these twits are experts at squandering life on petty egotistical quarrels—few episodes match Erika's implosion on her supposedly great grievance over "pantygate." And her hysterical, self-righteous and bullying outburst and menacing look over someone bringing up a matter of simple proportionality, or, rather DISPROPORTIONALITY. Eileen pointed out the obvious, that the whole fight was over something picayune and forgettable, not something involving an insult or a threat to a child, etc. This appeal to common sense, a solid correction, made Erika J go ballistic.
This is ironic because Eileen, a master at keeping petty grievances alive (we saw that with her constant harping over some grievance she held over something forgettable with LVP) had actually struck what we might call a reasonable position in this case: that the whole pantygate bullshit is that; and that whatever Dorit may be, snobbishness aside, she isn't guilty of anything except a fleeting "minor infraction", if that, par for the course in the lives of superficial people like these. As we might have expected, in Erika's curt of sycophants heads roll for far lesser infractions. and Eileen soon got cut to ribbons by a fulminating Erika, who, frankly, seemed ready to explode, not a welcome event in her proximity given that she is a big, brawny baby. But it gets better. What do you think happens next? Eileen, pussy that she is, caved in. She should have held her ground, as she was right in what she said, but she caved in, and that is a shame. Bullies like Erika need to be confronted and put in their places. Always. This should always be applied to people as well as countries.
As for cops risking their lives every day or night, or fighting for "us" whatever that means in the minds of pampered people like this (in their case I guess it makes sense), it's an exaggeration. Cops are usually at far lower risk than firemen, for example. Or miners. Or fishermen. I could name many other professions with similar higher risk potential.
In any case, someone should pass this useful set of data to the RHBV crew, maybe one of them will have the guts to confront the Erika dragon with the truth (not that that would help, but what the hell, no harm in trying). The data appears on the balance.com (https://www.thebalance.com/how-dangerous-is-a-law-enforcement-career-974538):
The Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries is a great source of information, but like all statistics, it's the interpretation of the data that matters. The census produces a "fatality rate," detailing the number of individuals fatally injured per 100,000 workers. It also provides a raw number of fatal on-the-job injuries. Making the top 10 most dangerous jobs for 2010, the most recent year for which data is available, are:
1 Fishers and related fishing workers, at a rate of 116 deaths per 100,000
2 Logging workers, at a rate of 91 deaths per 100,000
3 Aircraft pilots and flight engineers, at a rate of 71 deaths per 100,000
4 Farmers and ranchers, at a rate of 41 deaths per 100,000
5 Mining machine operators, at a rate of 38 deaths per 100,000
6 Roofers, at a rate of 32 deaths per 100,000
7 Refuse and recyclable material collectors, at a rate of 29 deaths per 100,000
8 Drivers/sales workers and truck drivers, at a rate of 21 deaths per 100,000
9 Industrial machinery repair and installation, at a rate of 20 per 100,000
10 Police and sheriff's patrol officers, at a rate of 19 per 100,000
A cursory glance at the rate of fatal injuries looks pretty staggering at first blush, especially for the top-rated professions of fishers, loggers and flight crews. The problem with basing a presupposition entirely on such a rate is that the data is per capita, meaning that in smaller industries the numbers can become easily skewed.
As for Lisa Rinna, she defines low-class character. A disgusting person. Is someone paying her under the table to instigate these clashes? Hmm. Maybe the producers are playing us all for suckers.
In any case, FWIW, my good opinion of LVP is maintained. She may be rich and out of touch with ordinary humans' realities, but she has a head on her shoulders and a solid, real, animal-loving and compassionate personality, and common sense to support her claims to full humanity. She is beautiful on the outside and quite possibly on the inside. Something we cannot say for the rest of this bunch.
