  1. IIRC...They started filming in February?...that’s when the word was out that Vicki could be demoted...

    Vicki claimed she was “in negotiations”... but Kelly called her out saying “nope.filming has started and Vicki would have already signed her contract by that time.

    this train birthday for Shannon would be end of March..,yes?

    I’m clueless about this subject...

    but looking back...the cast couldn’t have ignored Vicki more than they did in this episode...consistently.

    Her normal antics were greatly ignored by the cast...and camera crew shot just enough to show those antics along with nobody giving 3 Fs about anything she screamed or acted out.

    Vicki was soooo trying to split up Tam Bra...demanding everyone back to their seats...physically trying to separate the two...and being Boss (Hogg 😆) dictating orders...

    Not to mention screeching “were losing control of the birthdaaah” before being cut off...(more like I’M losing control of EVERYTHING on MY SHOW!)...Pathetic really...

    Nobody ever took notice...and that HAD to be out of her ordinary 

    Vicki even took a seat when Kelly said “Sit down!! Who cares!”

    Im just wondering if Vicki was privy to the possibility she’s being shut out at this point.
    Then the dance floor shove (physically) by Tamra...

    the writing was on the wall...no? So this little piggy went whooo hooo all the way home...

    (Vicki..a fake fall...and your off putting puffy face expressions...they’re not going to save you)...

    So this little piggy 
    I’m embarrassed for them all...

    Y’all want a show that doesn’t exist.  And, frankly never did.  
     

    They had hookers (Kim Z, Camille, Danielle) from day 1.
     

    There are some uptight Housewives .......but, most are free spirits. 
     

    I think OC this season is just gone too far. 
     

    They treat each other horribly.....and, keep filming together.

    I don’t get the whole train ride theme last night.

    If I was Kelly.....I would be never go!  That was at her expense.

    When they gave Kelly the dildo to suck on.......Tamra was right there recording her on the phone. WTF?!

    Frankly, I am over the train.  If Kelly does not think it is a big deal.

    Then alright!  Bring it on.....Tamra!  I don’t care, anymore.
     

    I was expecting Gina to throw herself on the floor and start yelling.....Las 4 Amigas! 

    That was the only fun thing to watch. Gina dissing Emily....hoping to become closer to Shannon & Co.  

    Try Racing Wives.  The most refined, rich....housewives on TV. They even think shots are trashy!  🥳

    Las 4 amigas! Thanks for a great laugh...too funny! 🤣

  3. I somehow missed the dancing scene originally...and played it.

    This is at least the second time I witnessed Vicki announcing her departure to EVERYBODY...along with dropping a turd of how trashy/classless Buttwind is this time. In years gone by...what she said seemed to matter...Those days are long gone Vicki...nobody is buying what you’re selling...Jelly much?

    omgawd...I was shocked Tamra actually pushed..PHYSICALLY pushed Vicki away when Vicki came in hot to Buttwind asking why she was dancing in such a way...

    Lines were drawn...regardless of what they’re trying to say these days...deep down Vicki was probably seething...or embarrassed...NOBODY took her bait...least of all Tamrat and B.Win...Can’t stand either of them...but I can’t stand Vicki more...it was a beautiful thing...that footage 😆

  4. Omg...I just saw the last of the shit show...then watched WWHL....

    I sure wish Andy would stop kissing ass...and throwing Tamra such softball questions.
    Fingers crossed 🤞 the reunion show will be peppered with a little more calling these bitches on their fake shit.

    I would think Bravo would do the research and see the vast majority would like to see..
    After looking at comments on different sites...it should be obvi to Bravo this crap stinks of desperation...and the viewing audience isn’t “buying it”.

    oh...and Vicki being disgusted..she may have been...but I believe she's disgusted by ANY activity UNLESS she’s square in the middle of it.

    Like commenters before me...I had to take breaks and pause this episode...it was ridiculously over the top performing.
    Second hand embarrassing...downright cringeworthy..

    Tamra talks out of both sides of her dirty mouth...AS IF...pretending she and Eddie participate in threesomes...Puleeez!....like Vicki..her wings need to be clipped...big time.ugh...gross...

    WWJD? Haha...I would love to know what Heather Dubrow would do! 😆 She would Mos Definitely throw “base” out there!

  5. Everybody now...together in unity:

    FUCK YOU GINA!

    Well THAT felt better than I expected! 
    Hah!...and once again...thank you to the commenter who started/coined the phrase...and “pressed the repeat button”...😂

    Oh...and another thing...that “pile on” at the restaurant was so effing stupid and thirsty...

    I still haven’t brought myself to finish watching the episode...I’ve tuned out these attention whores in my brain.

    Lastly.  Vicki at dinner table...trying to be “cute” with her “bobble head” move...wiping her mouth and cheeks...feigning her disapproval of the kissing...

    she must have thought the camera would love that...

    umm...NO VICKI...you were in the “wide shot”...You say “I’m ready for my close up”...Yeah..hmm...NO! Be gone! NOBODY THINKS YOU’RE CUTE ANYMORE!

    I agree, the Emily RA really did come out of the blue - that surprised me as well.

    RA is a huge part of who I am,so for this to be the first we heard about it from Emily took me by surprise.

    Of course, I’m not on a reality TV show - i am pretty boring- but I realize being boring is a good thing. Nor am I married to a dweeb like Shane... Although the first time I did marry outside my species - although the second time is coming on 25 years.

    I know I’ve been rambling but my brother collapsed and did unexpectedly a week and a half ago - just turned 59 - and reality and wine head an effect on me tonight 

    🤭Omgawd...Firstly...condolences..

    your brother was too young...I’m so sorry...

    you’ve been put through the fire SQ! 
    So trite to say...but hang in there...!
    you may have support around you...🙏

    i wish I could do or say more...hell...I’d help you...or just talk Reality TV!...anything...for anybody going through a bad time if I could...if nothing more than taking your mind off everything.

    sorr the RA rant struck a chord  during your needed escape...but I hope you and others are recognized for what you’re going through.

    Love this helps you escape...
    but I get it...I hope you’re not...but if you’re like me...I can’t and don’t ask for help...

    it’s part of the reason I’m in the shape I’m in....

    so reach out...I urge you.

    God bless you and your brother...

    As I have mentioned before, out of the blue when I when I just turned 13, I was diagnosed with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis, - it was frightening and scary and for 3 months it was hard to eat because it was hard to hold on to a utensil because, well, my hands. I was skinny, took dance lessons 4 times a week and was physically active - but it happened to me (just me, not any one else in my family of 3 siblings.

    it was what it was. I continued to be as active as I could and yet manage my weight. I have always remained as physically active as possible.

    rheumatoid arthritis is going to do what it is going do you irregardless of your your weight. I have lived with RA and other auto-immune challenges for over 41 years. 

    Extra weight does not help anyone’s joints and and can exacerbate any underlying problems. I had my first hip replaced at 43 then lost 60 pounds and still had to have my second hip replaced 10 months later - I’ve had 8 serious orthopedic surgeries in the last 10 years. Sure my weight gain from being non weight bearing for months at a time and my thyroid issues did not help the situation. However it was going to happen no matter my weight - maybe a few years earlier because I put weight back on but it would happen.

    MY POINT - DON’T ASSUME SOMEONE WITH RA COULD AVOID THE DESTRUCTION OF THEIR JOINTS BASED ON THEIR WEIGHT ALONE. Weight gain is a cause not a symptom.

    I have lived with rheumatoid arthritis for 42 years and I am just about to turn 55.

    Emily is in a vicious cycle - I’ve been there, when it hurts so hard to even walk, you can’t exercise and can lead to depression which can lead to not eating healthy 

    It’s easy to say, just drop 15 pounds but when you hurt all the time and it hurts to walk, that is difficult 

    I have not known a day without pain since two weeks after my 13th birthday.

    Omg...I’m in and out and had never seen your earlier posts about RA...it can be devastating...and the side effects from the meds can be horrible as well.

    stay strong...

    My main point to my comments were in response to Tamrat saying...”so you gained weight and got the arthritis...”

    I am surprised Emily didn’t speak up...”no...I have RA...anyway...but the extra weight isn’t helping the condition”

    most ppl would clarify IMO...(unless they’re tickled to be making ‘friends’ with the EVIL Tamra).

    so now I’m not sure what Emily’s diagnosis is...

    once again all the best to you...my dear...🙏

  9. Now I’m wondering where I read Emily had Rheumatoid Arthritis?

    (which btw...it’s unfortunate that arthritis is part of the name..because ppl ALWAYS say...”oh I have arthritis too”!...it’s NOT osteoarthritis)...this is a DISEASE...not unlike MS...type 1 diabetes...etc.

    a patient can be underweight and suffer an inflammation...

    extra weight never helps...in any case...but Rheumatoid arthritis is going to hit regardless...

    Emily might be trying to ignore her condition as well as everything else in her life...

    or maybe she just has what most all 40 plus ur old ppl have to some degree...osteoarthritis...??? In which case...it could be a vicious cycle...

    Some of it could be from the medications she's taking for her arthritis. If she's been having flair-ups she may have needed steroids which can cause puffiness and bloating...and if she's having flair-ups it's probably painful for her to exercise regularly -the vicious cycle she said she was in with her weight. I'm sure the stress from whatever was really going on with Shane didn't help either.

    I’m REALLY concerned for Emily...

    autoimmune diseases...beware.

    I hope she’s not trying to ignore it to appease the Toe husband... I know what it’s like to try to “rise to the occasion” because of put downs...

    If she’s NOT going to the doctor (she mentioned not going...and was mid sentence mentioning PT...before being interrupted) I’m concerned she’s not getting properly monitored if she IS taking medication...such as steroids or injections (methotrexate, Enbrel...etc...basically anti cancer drugs of different levels) which can severely compromise the immune system more.

    Shane bitches about her not going to the doctor....

    Thanks for the STRESS asshwipe! 

    be more supportive and maybe offer to watch the kids while she does PT a few times a week? Hmmm? I don’t see him doing that....you have pleeenty of time since you flunked the Bar...again....

    Stress is the worst for autoimmune diseases...

    Yes, yes yes, The hair. How does this deckhand Abbi not put her hair up off her neck while she is working?  I can never fathom that. Obviously having the cameras there is too much . After all this time, Kate throws her hair up and thats it. Comes down for talking heads but when she is working, up it goes. 

    Kate...hands down...holds the prize for the most “messy bumpit like, updo braid (ish), pony (ish) hair” that allows her to feel like it’s “down”...

    she’s a master of the whispy bang, braid like, comb up, pinned, asymmetrical look.

    Emily carries her weight well. She's tall and curvy.  I bet just losing 20lbs will make a huge difference. I hope that if Emily does lose weight she doesn't lose too much. Emily should not be a stick thin.

    Does Gina really think Emily would purposely set her up to hurt her? Yeah, I don't think so either. Gina for what ever reason want to push Emily away.

    There is something similar in the Chinese culture - which is fried pig. Outside is super crunchy crispy and right underneath the layer of crispiness is a layer of fat and then underneath the meat. It is served as one of the dishes at many banquets. It is also customary for a Bride on her wedding day to have a "whole" fried pig in her parents home. It's significance of it being "whole" shows you being of wealth and it is served to the people that come visiting the home before the wedding ceremony.

    I've had cochinillo asado - a friend had that suckling roasting in the backyard - on a makeshift rotisserie. I've also had a different version where the whole pig is split in half and placed between 2 metal frames and cooked over a coal pit.

    I can understand how it might not seem pleasant to some who are used to eating meat/fish that is already packaged and cellophaned but I don't have an issue because though I grew up a city girl - my mom bought home LIVE poultry/seafood and I saw the prep from the start.

    Funny true story: I went to my sisters apartment when I was about 12. She told me to take the meat out of the freezer because her boyfriend was going to make venison stew. Boyfriend asked if I knew what venison was and I said no. He told me it was deer and his friend gave him a piece of his last kill. Anyhoo, I went to the freezer and the aluminum covered hind leg was in there. It was put in "fresh" as there were droplets of blood that went into the ice tray. For some reason that "freaked me out - you know the movie Bambi? I swear I heard the rifle gun shot - I ran out of there like ET did when he got scared with his arms over his head and ran all the way home like that.

    It's weird when you think about it - like I said I used to play with the chickens, ducks, crabs, fish, snails when they were brought home alive and had no issues watching my mom kill, de-feather, drop live into a boiling vat of water and an aluminum shaped leg had me in tears.

    Great post...funny story..

    I too grew up with hunting/fishing..and eating what was the kill.

    I would always cut the head off my caught fish though! 🥴

    ...and I love a whole pig roast...
    but I usually only see the meat in buffet line! 🤣

    I think the presentation of “just the head” was a shock to those not aquatinted..and it wasn’t a head with an apple in its mouth..as seen on Below Deck Tahiti ...it kind of looked like a skinned head...Buffalo Bill like 😣for many.

    Eating pig is cultural.  Island food!
     

     Islands are tiny. We don’t have enough land to raise cattle!  
     

    Pig, Chicken, Goat or Seafood! Take your pick! 
     

    You know what they eat in true 3rd world countries...?  
     

    Grains!
     

    No animal protein....bc, it is too expensive. 
     

    Super blessed if they can get a cup of goat milk or even an egg to feed their children. 

    True..all of this.

    When in Africa (Kenya) a family was blessed if they had one cow (female)...where they would “bleed” the cow by arrow to neck...mixed with milk...put in a dried gourd that had been “cleaned” using a particular burnt wood charcoal tip...(only protein unless in areas where a male cow was born/butchered...but they were usually sold).

    Only for special days/occasions. It was called Mursik ...I was invited to a a national’s home for dinner..it was offered (I was told they’d rather you try it and lose it than refuse)...I drank it..and felt it going through my intestines for a few days.

    Other than this...they mainly only ate corn...like “feed” corn here in states.

    Bowel obstruction surgery..after bowel obstruction surgery...

    We brought lettuce seeds...something green and leafy with quick results to help with digestion...and we also did “dramas” informing villages of malnutrition.

    Pig of any kind...even the head would have been most welcome...a protein to chew on..get gut juices flowing.

    Pigs have litters...heifers birth only one calf (reject one twin). So that’s a consideration. Very limited source.

    Shoot.. Guinea pigs…are a delicacy in Peru? Is it Peru?

    Oh! Forgot to add...the blood/milk in gourd is left out in sun for 7 days....

    I can't explain the way the pig was served other than it is a specialty preparation this restaurant is known for.

    I can explain the Duck, Chicken, Fish served in Chinese restaurants. Culturally, there is symbolism in serving a "whole" chicken, duck, fish with the body intact. It represents the whole family being together and intact. The head and tail - good beginnings and endings. It also shows your status - that you can afford to kill and eat an entire animal - you have good fortune and are not left with only being able to buy the remnants,

    The story goes that a long time ago when Chinese Restaurants began to cater to non Chinese customers - they served their food the non Chinese way - no head and no butt. One restaurant began to pronounce in their advertising that their specialty was "whole" chicken. A non-Chinese customer got out of paying the bill - because he claimed he wasn't served a "whole" chicken and they were trying to con him. Once that happened, they began serving the "whole" chicken by cooking it, cutting it, then reshaping the cut pieces back together so you would see it is a "whole" chicken.

    Same with the fish - normally the whole fish is intact when brought to the table. It is then, cut and served in front of customers. The clarity of the eyes of the fish also show the "freshness"

    IIRC...it was served with tortillas and salsas...like other pork carnitas...

    supposedly...very succulent...like pork belly...w/ crispy skin/cracklings.

    IF one can get past the obvious 🥴

    So, what was the purpose of that?  Eating a pig head.  What, are we in a third world country now?  What’s going on here?  Getting crazier by the minute.

    Advertising “Social” restaurant maybe? I dunno...

    all I know is it’s kind of their novelty dish...I was shocked and noticed it was 48 hr advance required...

    like Peking Duck in Chinese restaurants..I guess. Point being...to order it spur of the moment is unlikely...especially during what looked like lunch.

    If the waitress said “It’s ready to go”.. I missed that...or was confused by Emily saying...”I’ll have the Pig......oh...and meatballs”... like she was actually ordering from the menu in the moment
