Supermix Studio (that name...) was a mess. There's zero difference between that and the beach shops where you pick out a shirt and decal for the front and whatever letters/name you want on the back. They use the iron/press thing in the store and voila, you have a custom shirt. My boyfriend is an amateur luthier (guitar repairer [tinkerer]) and will buy literally anything guitar-related. He has 14(?) guitars. Even he said he wouldn't pay $30 for six picks.

He was atrocious.

I joked to my boyfriend that they were typical Boomers. (Don't throw tomatoes at me.) I see them as an agent of chaos.

Yeah, Shelley had a pacifier in her mouth and a rubber tube around her neck. The teacher said his and his wife's baby was strangled by its umbilical cord. Shelley's sweatshirt said, "Life's a drag [front]...when your daddy's a f**" [back]. Which, he was married to a woman, so...? But who tells their student about how their stillborn baby died? I hate that *I* paid that much attention to this episode.

This was miles above of the first episode. I felt vindicated for not having "smart" anything.

This was...not good. I thought Shelley looked like Chloe Sevigny. I kept seeing and hearing Drew Barrymore in "Bestie".😂 That sure was a lonnnnng game that Riv and Bestie were playing.

In 1999–2001, I worked at a government contracting company. They were circling the drain when they brought on a "consulting firm" to try to right the ship. I went on sick leave because my mental health was shit because of the working conditions, and they fired me while I was on leave. I filed suit against them and by the time we settled, they were going through bankruptcy. TL;DR: I cast a long side eye at consulting firms.

He posted a lovely, heartfelt tribute to the show on his Instagram account. Meanwhile, Mina's trashing her family all over the tabloids and on her podcast.🤷🏻‍♀️

The show's creator discusses in this article that he wants to have a third and final season.

I don't have a problem with not having a dedicated dining area, but my boyfriend and I are slobs that eat on the couch while watching TV. This house was supposedly designed for a family, which needs a dining table. I hated the "ombré" brown tile in the main shower. I also hated the brick-look tile in the kitchen. It just looked cheap to me. I didn't like the countertops either. I did like the iron/steel railing put in place of the pony wall. I begrudgingly admit the fireplace looked better after being painted. I usually hate when anything wood is painted. I agree there's way too much stuff crammed into the houses when they stage. I'm over green kitchens.

This entire episode was gold.

I agree. I was really bummed by this "development" in the story. I think I was a little "too old" to watch the original series and read the novels, so I have no context, but apparently the dummy originates from the novels. Before episode six, I found the show entertaining enough. I can't stand ventriloquist's dummies, though—"Dead Silence" notwithstanding. I remember reading other, more "mature" R.L. Stine books in middle and high school. I also read a lot of Stephen King in high school. I graduated high school in 1993, so I'm enjoying the music from that timeline.

She was definitely wearing some nude tights or shapewear or something. Her "song" was completely bonkers, but she absolutely didn't show asscrack on TV. I don't understand Mark. He's a vegan, but he eats whatever meat- and dairy-laden samples presenters hand out? That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works. I'm a vegetarian, and I never, ever eat meat, not even to "sample". Barbara's face is highly distracting. Her mouth is stretched so wide. She's 74, and whatever camera filters they're using make her look like she has no wrinkles. It's uncanny valley. She posted this heavily edited photo in May. https://www.instagram.com/p/Csbu5-KrrqG/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Is she contractually obligated to mention Cousins Maine Lobster on every episode?

I'm a child-hating shrew, so trotting out kids to sell a product has the opposite effect on me. I instantly hate whatever it is and doubly hate the parents for using their kids as props. The Sharks are nothing if not inconsistent. Sometimes, one product is only "a product, not a company", and other times, they invest in the one-product company. I'll never get over and stop bringing up the Wedding Flask as long as I live. Her clothes are hideous. Supposedly, she designs them, which makes sense. I've said her pointy-shoulder dresses look like Count Chocula. We call those "cold-shoulder" tops "Lori shirts".

Ew. It was an immediate no for me for any man who posed next to his car/motorcycle/boat.

In my experience with online dating over 20-some years, 90% of straight men make the least amount of effort possible. I mean, like, messaging, "Hey", or a profile that says only, "Ask me what you want to know." I gave up several times over the years. The men with whom I connected/had short- or long-term relationships over the years had not the most polished pictures and profiles but were the most genuine and had clearly put in effort. I met my boyfriend online in 2014, and we dated for a month. We broke up for reasons but reconnected in 2019 and have been together ever since. We moved in together right after the pandemic hit.

Meh. "I grew up very middle class." Yet he knew how to repair skis at 12? I knew exactly one kid in my school who skied, and her family was very well off. Skiing is not a cheap pastime.

It's more than that, though. It's about the normalization of unethical behavior by millionaires and billionaires (on the show and IRL). Paul screwed over a student he mentored, so who knows what he would do to someone with whom he's in business.

One of the worst wigs I've ever seen.

My parents live on a dead-end street in the house in which I grew up. The neighborhood was annexed into the city maybe 30 years ago. The city came a couple years ago and put in a sewer line in the neighborhood, but it was going to be something like $10,000 to connect to the house--it definitely wasn't the "$50K to $85K" on the show. My parents refused, and therefore, the two houses on the road after them didn't get sewer access either.🥴

I'm standing out here alone because I don't see any chemistry between Jennifer and Jon. It's like watching wet white bread grow mold. Jen can't act and always looks constipated. Don't throw tomatoes at me.

I've told my boyfriend he can just toss my body off the side of the highway. I'll be dead; what'll I care? He's not on board with the idea.😂 But seriously, I've always heard that cremation is far more ecologically sound than traditional burial. I would ideally like a green burial.

She did.

Yeah, they barely make the rent.

I think this forum's members will appreciate that we call our cats Mama Trash Mouth and Baby Trash Mouth.
