  1. That wouldn't fit into Bethenny's attempt to cultivate an image as a victim. We are all supposed to feel sorry for her, not recognize that she is an adult in a difficult situation that is the result of a failed relationship between two people, she has more than sufficient financial means and she is in a shared custody situation that is similar to what many people have.
  2. While I am normally the engineer on the Shut Up, Bethenny Train, I did appreciate her calling out Ramona on her repeating (or making up) gossip that Bethenny cheated on her first husband. Ramona is an evil sit stirrer who usually gets away with everything. Yet again, we had Sonja Morgan, unlikely voice of reason (TM The Soup). It, of course, won’t last but I enjoyed the little cutaways to her speaking her mind. Her sly, little smile is the icing on the cake. I can only imagine that Dorinda drinks heavily while watching the show. It helps feed her delusions about what happened. We now know the answer to the question “What are you doing here without Dorinda?” is “Having a drink without having to deal with her vicious behavior. I’d like to have a night out without being attacked.” I hate that he asks this like it's so salacious. He is like a 12 year old who first heard some women have sex with women. By doing that, he feeds the haters. if he simply asked the question in a normalized manner it wouldn't be a big deal. You know people in production are just desperate to get through this shitfest. with all of these me-me-me look-at-me people, it has to be so hard to film even a short segment. This is what happens when you never learn the difference between good attention and bad attention. At the same time, I too enjoyed seeing that. This was the most real part of the season. It hit me today, we had how many actual episodes and a three hour reunion. It's like they spend more time talking about the show than being on it,.
  3. When a friend was looking for a house in the LA area, he said every realtor would try to come up with an actor or musician reference. For what it's worth, he ended up by a place on the same block as the house supposedly inhabited by Sheena of "Sheena is a Punk Rocker" fame. I am sure Tamra was fed that house tidbit thinking it would add to the appeal rather than make people want to jump in a giant vat of hand sanitizer. There are just not enough shit ups in the world for this cast. Meghan has down an excellent job of making herself hated. Shannon needs a tranquilizer drip. Tamra did the unpardonable by having rat face rapey Ryan appear. On a shallow note, as always, what was Lizzy wearing the Heather's house? Was that a table cloth or curtains she wrapped around her ass? And Vicki's hot pink dress sometimes looked sort of cute; then it looked like she went to the stylist and forgot to take of the smock. I am having a lot of construction done at my house right now. I will not be inviting people over for lunch until after the work is done. I guess I'm just a little crazy - I don't want friends tripping on nails or uneven surfaces or falling on stairs that don't have handrails or proper treads. Then again, I don't hate all of my friends.
  4. I think in this case "therapist" was code for production assistant. Then again, in Jim and Elizabeth's case, therapist is code for spawn of Satan.
  5. I thought he decided to leave the scene when he heard the gunshots. I was happy to see someone get away from danger rather then deciding to get out and film it with their phone. Like, ooh, gunshots, let me get really close. I’m going to fanwank that Nick has a fetish for wearing other people’s clothing. In the first scene, he is wearing a woman’s bolero top. Later he steals the dead guy’s clothing. Maybe in each episode we’ll get to play a game of guess who’s clothing Nick is going to wear.
  6. That helps explain why they spent so little time trying to resuscitate random dead old guy and why the doctor said to take him downstairs, presumably to the morgue which is often in the basement. Now that I know that the actor who plays Nick is the son of the actor that plays Stannis on GoT, I'm afraid he's going to go up in flames.
  7. The previews that were shown last week for this episode showed Kris. I suspect they edited out the Kris Jenner section and added in the Sergio piece instead. Over the next few days, we may hear speculation as to why this was done. I am not surprised to see that "idiot" was also edited out. I get the feeling that this show is being edited based on audience reactions.
  8. At least Nick would be more likely to fight rather than while away the time like Andrea did. Cal was just too pretty to live. The curse of TWD, the unblackening.
  9. Even though I knew the nukes could not go off, I really enjoyed the ride. Between the video conferences, Jack Black being the sociopath trying to talk down another sociopath, the pilots with their usual ability to somehow screw up so much that they somehow succeed and the buddies on the road, I laughed through the whole episode. Cannot wait for next season. They just have to find a way to keep Aasif Mandvi in the mix.
  10. My new theory is that they were too stupid to understand that Eggos need to be kept frozen; hence the box just sitting on the counter. So the single Eggo in the toaster is the only one now covered in mold. And this is why I love this forum.
  11. Things I learned from this reunion: - LuAnn may or may not hook up with young men in bathrooms - LuAnn may or may not have sex with men in their 20s - LuAnn’s niece may or may not give a fuck about Adam and Carole - Ramona may or may not be okay with her divorce and may or may not be ready to move on - Ramona should not be trusted with a makeup brush and powder - Anything having to do with Bethenny’s divorce should stay off of TV for the sake of her daughter who will have both parents in her life and does not need to have any ugliness between them preserved on film - If we remove all of the contradictory statements from this broadcast, there would only be approximately 10 minutes of material - Andy continues to annoy me And finally, the number of fucks I have left to give has fallen to the negative numbers. I guess I should start trolling with LuAnn and Sonja because I need to add some fucks.
  12. Okay, I know I am really tired this morning, but I swear the Hyundai commercial announcer just said "All Moes are priced to move!" And I think it was John Corbett screeching this at me. So John Corbett wants me to have a Moe? I'm confused but not willing to back it up to try to figure out what he said. I would rather imagine a lot full of men named Moe, perhaps each with the Moe from the Three Stooges haircut, standing around a car lot waiting for someone to take them home.
  13. And suddenly "We didn't start the fire" is in my head.
  14. Never in my life have I thought, "I've had a bad day. I need to use lavender scented genital wash to relax." Nor have I ever hailed my "V". And I understand enough about my anatomy to know that while showering, I am not washing my vagina, I am washing external genitalia only. All this is to say, shut up horrible Summer's Eve crotch wash shower ads.
  15. There were no shocks, just more bullshit. Why did I watch this? Am I doing some form of penance for sins I don't remember? Did I kill someone in a former life? I will give credit to whoever made sure the couples looked extra gross and sweaty at the ring ceremony. With the "promise" rings were they promising not to have sex until marriage, because that boat sailed long ago. What a waste this show is. They couldn't even find enough married or engaged couples to fill out the cast. Then we have the supposed drama of Hank and Kendra while they show Kendra on Top promos at almost every commercial break. I was soooo concerned they would't stay together. Can this show be put to rest now?
  16. If you are being really observant, a shabbat goy can do things for you but you can't ask them to. So you can take a regular elevator but you cannot push the buttons or ask someone else to push the buttons but you can get on if the doors open and hope someone pushes the button you want. Or you can do what a friend's mother does when her more-religiously stringent daughter visits, get on the elevator with others and make comments like "I hear there's a really nice floral arrangement on the 22nd floor" or "the 22nd floor was just remodeled. If you want to see the changes, maybe we could stop there." These hints usually are enough to have someone else on the elevator push 22 for them. When my friend's sister was in town he invited me to dinner knowing I would take care of some of the things that they weren't supposed to do. So light switches, getting people up and down the elevator (I made many silly excuses to go to the lobby), using the food processor, grinding coffee beans, all my jobs.
  17. I need a new car but both Toyota with chirpy Jan and VW with the sexual harassment grandmas make me a sad panda. I cannot buy a car of either type when it might be considered condoning these horrible ads. I miss the driving hamsters.
  18. I absolutely agree that any Kardashian interaction is highly suspicious. This family is very adept at creating a public presence to keep interest in their brand. As to how much they will or will not be in Cait's life in the future may have more to do with the publicity component. It is very common for transgender people who transition later in life to not be accepted by their families and to have the family pull away from them. So many of my friends have little to no contact with their families. Often this is because the family refuses to accept the transition, continues to misgender the person and, in some cases, actively works against their transition. Cait does seem to share some common interests with her daughters. While I find their fashion focus boring, they are all absorbed by it. Depending on the level of closeness they had before her transition, they may still be able to be close. But there will be a transition period for everyone as they re-establish the ways in which they interact. We have seen in some of these interactions that Cait is not backing down from her position as a parent. I am happy to see that. Demanding respect for herself as a parent, a transwoman and a person is very important while she transitions. I am happy to see her interact with trans activists because she does live a very different life than most people. Having these connections will help her understand some of what she may encounter with her family, friends and the public. It may also give her a better understanding of the difficulties trans people regularly encounter. She is in a position to bring greater attention to the struggles that many trans and non-gender-conforming people face. Just a point of language, Cait has not "transgendered"; she is transitioning. She has come out as transgender.
  19. Regardless of who plays Jared, I want a scene where he has the under-aged girl join him in his enormous pants from before his weight loss. L&O:SVU make it so!
  20. Aw, but Joshie likes to cuddle. Maybe that's what he's been looking for all along. You know, with his sisters, and a babysitter, and women he meets on line. Little Joshie is just looking for someone to show him some affection. Then again, he could just be an enormous creeper.
  21. The panels on this show so often drive me crazy. Yet there are occasionally people that appear that I would most likely not see anywhere else. Christina Greer kicks ass. Intelligent, eloquent and well-reasoned. I want to hear more from her. I also love the look on her face when Lil Duval was prattling on, blaming black people for their own deaths. I really wish they would do a better job of getting panel members, rather than padding with people who have nothing to say. Otherwise, skip the panel and do an interview with the knowledgeable person.
  22. I really liked Craig's winning tattoo. It seemed far above the others. I won't miss Big Ceeze at all. Like most of you, I had not heard of Trash Polka prior to this show. I wonder if enough people looked it up to make it noticeable to google.
  23. It has been very hot in SF. I had to deal with a bunch of medical things today so I opted for comfort - a thin, cotton maxi skirt, a 3/4 sleeve loose fitting plain dark blue boat-necked shirt and flat, black, casual shoes. It suddenly occurred to me; I look like a fundie. I need to know the opposite of Nike! so I can exclaim it when I see myself in a mirror.
  24. And now I cannot unsee that. If only she would have found some Flintstones related accessories. Send the model out barefoot carrying a stuffed dinosaur and wearing a short neck tie.
