More a friendship ring. I figured you were good on engagement rings since you bought one for yourself already...
I thought it was an appreciation ring because you appreciate him so much!

This whole blaming Stefan thing is a REALLY dumb plan. Are they setting it up so Gabi finds a way to prove he's innocent and he then falls in love with her?

Seriously, Bonehead Brady can't tell the difference between Kristen and Nicole or real lips vs. a mask? But then again, neither could Eric when she first came back. Either way I'm really ready for this whole Kristen as Nicole thing to be done.

Don't we kinda need to call BS on Chickengate? That little family compound Corey lived at before had a wee bit of a "preppers" vibe.
I'm not really buying that Corey had never been around a deer or wild turkey being cut up.
You are 100% right. Never even thought of it this way.

OK the kind part of me understands that if you are truly trying to get healthier ("embarking on a wellness journey") it makes absolutely no sense to try some crazy "diet" that will help you lose weight rapidly. The only way she will get healthier is to really change her life and change her eating/exercising habit. I also understand that it is really frustrating when you do things right and your body takes its sweet time to respond. And as Janelle has shown, giving up when you don't get immediate results is NOT the path to wellness. I also get it that it is healthy to say "I am where I am, it's not productive to hate myself, so I just need to accept it and move on while trying to get healthier." BUT, does she REALLY need to use ALL the psychobabble while being just so damned EARNEST? Yes, pretention and knowing it all is one of the pitfalls of being 23 and trying to be an "influencer" but if she could just dial it back a notch or 27 she would be a LOT easier to take.

OK so your child is basically the spawn of Satan who is generally capable of behaving for 10 minutes under the best of circumstances. She is supposedly sick. Rather than saying you will stay and take care of her while the others sight see your mother is magically able to come and get her and get a flight back so you don't miss a day out. I call bullshit. The mother, while not the brightest crayon in the box does NOT seem demented enough to want to take THAT CHILD on a plane, especially WHEN SICK. Totally disregarding how charmed all the other passengers would be to get whatever noxious illness this child supposedly has, do we really think anyone would be capable of controlling this child on a airplane, while sick? We've only seen the mother's other child in passing but she did not strike me as particularly feral so it's not like she does this on a regular basis.
Either Deavan simply shipped the child off to get rid of her or she is kind of a REALLY crappy mother, or possibly both. (I have no children but could not imagine being so irresponsible that I would expect someone to deal with my sick child while I went out sightseeing.

Did I understand there is polygamy in India? what was that about another wife getting notice of the intent to marry?
No, he was saying that they need to send notice to his permanent residence to make sure he DOESN'T already have a wife (who would be pissed if she saw the notice.)

Those kids just got on the black magic bandwagon because someone suggested it. They all just thought that was the lamest trick they've ever seen (pull my finger!)

So far I've learned 2 things. Chicken comes in plastic - no live chickens are involved. And, if you suspect your "wife" is going to be pissed at you for how you are behaving - bring a lot of people with you the next time you see her.

We can’t talk about the Bonus scene episode that is on right now? They are now showing a great scene with Jihoon getting drunk.
I can't believe I missed that! Wasn't able to live chat last night. I'm here but the rest of you are a lot faster than me.

Second picture is a screenshot from a video. Mariah says, “This is my house. This is my weaponry to protect my house.”
So no chance an intruder could get to it before you and use it against you then? Good to know.

I've spent a pretty penny on some quilted items, so it was only my experience I was basing it on. I have a tendency to buy things that look cool but I never use. It's really aspirational purchasing, and it's possible I'm the only one doing it.
It's good to have the view from someone who has actually done this.
I would have maybe thought that her fans would prefer to show their support by buying a quilted chotski for like $5-$15 that Nicole gets the profit from instead of outrageously overpriced lularoe leggings that she probably loses most of the profit on.*
*- no offense meant to those of you who love lularoe leggings but they are comparatively expensive IMO.
Not to get too far off topic but those beautiful quilts sold by Amish women will easily have over $100 in fabric alone (assuming they got a REALLY good deal and bought it on sale - most of the time it's quite a bit more than that.) Depending on how fast you sew putting a couple hundred hours (or more) in is definitely not unheard of. While I definitely agree most MLM sellers end up losing money crafters only really make good money if they can get a following or a reputation (kind of like - how much would you pay that really talented person next door to paint a picture of your dog.)

I'm sure Morocco has many quilters who are better equipped than Nicole. But I agree that would be a great side hustle stateside.
She could just sell them on Facebook/Instagram/whatever (I imagine Etsy charges a fee, and I only go there if I really need to be there).
I wouldn't buy one, but she must have some sort of fan base who will. She doesn't need to make giant quilts since those have limited use and cost lots of money, she can make small accessories. Hats, headbands, change purses. It's a fairly easy way for people to show their support without spending a mint AND it's not a GoFundMe.
As someone who sews a lot (and quilts) it is REALLY hard to make money doing this kind of stuff. A lot of the people who sell stuff really only do it to get the money to feed their habit. (Or just want an outlet.) Most people won't want to spend a lot of money on hats, headbands and change purses so she either has to use really cheap materials or make something so simple anyone could do it. Spending over an hour making something where you MIGHT end up "clearing" a dollar is not the way to fame and fortune. And if you guess wrong and people don't want your design you've wasted all the money on materials.

Once TLC and reality shows go away which WILL happen eventually, what is this gal gonna do? She isn't exactly setting the world on fire with her influencing gig (she can't even shill nail shit and make her own nails look decent).
They are on so little I'm guessing the reality show money is not really much of a factor any more. She comes to family events but hasn't shown up in a lot of random episodes where it is obvious she only came for the money. I think the girls just stayed involved in the show because they really just wanted to get their weddings paid for. All of the girls have started on the shilling shit and "influencing" (along with Garrison apparently.) It will be interesting to see if they start to break away from it as they mature.

Well if you think about it, had Abigail been successful in killing Ben, Marlena, Kate, and Vivian she and Ben would basically have the same body count. Also, both were apparently mentally ill when they were killing/trying to kill.
You forgot about Andre - Abigail's body count would have been higher. But then you could also say that Ben tried to kill Chad and Abby so his would have been higher.
About today's episode. If Kristen has a plan to exonerate Xander she should have led with that. Otherwise, there is no way Xander won't happily throw her under the same bus she tried to throw him.

Pao: "And they even criticized my clothes!" Oh, you mean those barely there sausage casings you like to sport? I though mama Pao should have agreed. Especially since IIRC she was exposed to that shameless nude modeling with nothing but paint on.
I thought it was a pretty interesting turn of events. Pao started out by trying to poison her mother against Mama Russ before she got there. (I think she was hoping the language barrier would be too great for them to compare notes.) It seemed to work at first because Mama Pao was giving Mama Russ the death stare and threatening to speak out against her. Pao then overplayed her hand by starting a fight with Russ in front of both of them. Rather than take her side Mama Pao pretty much parroted what Mama Russ was saying - Pao was being the bitch in this situation and needed to back off. Suddenly, the next scene was both mothers were gone and they were taking Axel to the beach. Pao was AGAIN trying to be a victim by claiming Russ traveled too much for work. She keeps saying money doesn't matter but I wonder if she would say that if Russ announced he was giving up his job and taking a lesser paying one so he could stay home more with the baby. Oh, by the way, they will need to move to a cheaper apartment and cut back on clothes, nights out, and any extras (especially paying for a new portfolio for Pao's modeling "career".)

I used to live in fear that they'd resurrect Zach, but this show doesn't really seem to care about Hope now except as Rafe arm candy and the busybody interfering with her daughter's love life so there's no point. Yes, I realized how he died. Jake on GH died the same way in a pretty clear rip-off of the BJ heart story and poof, he's back to life.
After one of Jack's many "deaths" they donated all his organs. Somehow he has managed to live with no heart, lungs, kidneys or liver! While I generally like Jack I REALLY hate that so many people have returned from the dead. Because we knew Peggy was really gone her memorial had a finality that many viewers found very satisfying and emotionally touching. Viewers also really appreciated the pub scene after Joe died in real life. That whole "Stefano is somehow possibly still alive in some state of semi vegetation" crap that they are currently having happen in the background cheapens that story and the memories of the true fans.

On one hand, Ron slows a storyline down so much that you don't care anymore. Or, he moves it along too quickly (Haley) that you don't care about it either. There must be a way to find a happy medium speed of story telling.
Yes, if you added up all the time JJ and Haley had even spent in each other's company it probably wouldn't even amount to a month. Yet, here they are, already declaring their love for each other.

I really wish they'd stopped with him when Andre died.
I am SO sick of this back from the dead trope! The ONLY time it would be acceptable is if WE all knew the person wasn't dead but everyone in Salem thought he/she was. (The only thing interesting about the whole Kristen/Nicole storyline is how Holly's "death" is affecting various other people like Maggie.) Now, because of Rolf's Dead-B-Gone EVERY SINGLE PERSON who ever died is in danger of coming back. It is so tiring. We are supposed to care about these characters and feel emotion when they die. Days is turning in to one big Bugs Bunny/Road Runner cartoon. I fully expect someone to run off a cliff, magically produce a sign that says "OH, OH", go splat on the floor of a canyon and walk in to the Horton Town Square in the next scene.

I don’t want to get off the topic, but this explains a bit of the pay issue
https://www.ibtimes.com/how-much-do-90-day-fiance-couples-get-paid-their-salary-revealed-2740792
Sumit probably figured they can live on Jenny's money until they get paid for the show. They will then have close to a year of his wages in one lump sum. Maybe he's hoping for another season - even longer before he will have to worry about money.

Again with the toddler pose. Is she supposed to be practicing a curtsy? And another stunning backdrop.
Apparently she isn't aware that she should pick a backdrop where the clothes stand out. The first one, she almost blends right in to the wall.

Those "tacos" look absolutely gross. My cat throws up hairballs that look more appetizing!
So, I'm seeing limp cauliflower, tomatoes, mango? (my best guess for what that orange stuff is), random green bits, and something that is supposed to look like cheese but is probably (with apologies to all the vegans out there) that gross vegan "cheese sauce." It looks like some of it congealed and she's using it as a "flourish." THIS is what you are excited to eat?

So I just checked out the website for the meal delivery. It's a vegan site and they're charging $12 per serving for 2 people which made me laugh since my vegan friends always say how much cheaper it is to eat a plant based diet.
Also, the photos of the meals look much more appetizing than the slop presented by Mariah. I don't think the company would be thrilled with her presentation.
Hilarious that they show the flyer with a photo of what it's actually supposed to look like!!!
$24 for ONE meal for 2 people? Mr. Cat and I are not supposedly "poor" students and the only way he's spending that on one meal that he has to cook himself (he generally cooks because he's not terribly fond of badly cooked meat) is if he's buying prime steak or lobster. And since the package shows it with rice you probably even need to add your own noodles! Vegetables are NOT expensive and even I would be capable of steaming vegetables and boiling noodles. I'm thinking I could make a meal for two for less than 1/3 the cost.

Some emotional scenes today, I really liked the scenes with John & Victor...we don't often see them together. Victor revealing his love for his family(altho he uses his usual 'lets fly her out of the country" as his solution). I liked that Claire & Ciara revealed their love for each other & remembered the good times from their past...its good to have memories. And then Belle&Shawn comforting their daughter(although I wish we could have had her parents appear earlier in this storyline & them trying to help her), the family moments were good, the grandmothers were there: Marlena & Hope. John...I guess with Claire at Bayview they can write her character back into the show sometime in the Future.
I agree most of it was great but since Claire was sucking it up and apologizing to everyone why couldn't Ciara be a better person and apologize too. Yes, she may have apologized in the past but:
1. Deciding you want a guy after you've dumped him and he's moved on and blaming his current girlfriend (Claire) for not simply stepping aside because it was her duty to do so after you changed your mind...
2. Blaming Claire for the guy getting injured when she had nothing to do with it...
3. Announcing you were planning to ruin Claire's life (because she didn't just hand the guy over to you) and then being so petty as to compete for something you don't even want simply because you knew it would hurt her....
4. Realizing Claire is in BIG trouble and setting her up rather than going to her grandmother WHO IS A PSYCHIATRIST. (I realize they couldn't go to the police but come on, it's not like Marlena wouldn't have listened to her.)
5. Generally being a bitch to your supposed "best friend"
are all very valid reasons why Ciara should have made it a point to apologize again. There is a chance Claire would have snapped anyway but Ciara pushing her toward the edge certainly didn't help.

S14.E08: Judge Cuts 1
in America's Got Talent
I am old so there is a good chance I'm clueless. Do people REALLY sit around and listen to the kind of garbage golden buzzer girl puts out? Or do they just think they should support her because she is talking about "important" issues? Seriously, a few chords, some singing (I guess it was kind of in tune?) and then some fast, not terribly rhythmic talking is considered music? If so, I'm going to need you to all get off my lawn before I have to get the hose out.
