Do Side Chicks have to go through Nigerian marriage counseling?

Ready for the Best of the Best?

Rosa and Tammy were at the food truck pod, and they brought their children. But, when Mother Asuelo stood up and said, "I'm done," the children somehow disappeared. One of them did manage to follow them out. But, the other ones may have been abandoned there or at Pioneer Square!

"And why yes, Kody has transitioned to boots and a truck." Wouldn't that be de rigueur for a guy who grew up on a Wyoming ranch? He's not the California surfer dude he fantasizes himself to be, or even the slick salesman in a sportscar that he presented in the first season. And a truck remains family-inappropriate, unless he's herding the Pixies and Robyn's kids in the back. Kody's also regained his gut, probably from eating ice cream directly from the pint and grabbing takeout (one of Janelle's most-mentioned activities). He connects to the camera more than he does with Savannah in this photo. He doesn't look to be enjoying either. (I hope the ice cream isn't some orop to turn on Janelle.) Savannah's leggings look threadbare, not intentionally sheer. Christine or Janelle just posted a picture of a son on a mountain or hill at sunset. I wonder if it was on this one family outing. "Kody has transitioned," is an awkward phrasing choice.

The whole premise of their trip to South Africa was to visit him. They spent very little time with him, and they compared his life-threatening event to Tania's injury. Then they leave his apartment. Worse, Syngin's entire family, including Tania and Syngin, are staying at an AirBnB, while incapacitated Bru is alone in his apartment without assistance, and he's excluded from all their activities (Tania's bonding with the women and Syngin's bingeing with his non-blood brus).

Cheesestick follows his good Spanish with, "I just killed me and her father's relationship."

See how hateful Ed is? Any man in conflict with a woman deserves it - because Ed needs to feel superior to them. Any woman who isn't subservient reminds him of Rose or her sister - because all women have ulterior motives.

So that he can continue his anti-Rose tirades. Shut up, Big Ed.

I don't expect to see any Pole scenes - both because of current events, and because of the lack of story.

Cynthia's comments and reactions seem genuine this week. I'm convinced that Molly writes hers out beforehand. (I do like Cynthia and Molly, but they screech too much.)

David Poor's hairplugs...

Especially so they're not the embittered ex-couple we must suffer through on 90DF Strikes Back. (See Big Ed and Rose.)

In addition, they just dropped $100+ easily on the best of the best from every food truck, plus the $1000 or more for the travel.

Angela should cut Michael's losses. If a baby is so important to him, she should say goodbye and wish him all the best. I think that his aunt and various female relatives are putting the pressure on Angela for him, so they'll break it off. But, they also seem vested in his getting his green card.

Tania has totally forgotten her social justice warrior issues that were so important in Costa Rica, now that she's in South Africa. She has no concerns about being in an oppressive land of cis white males. She just wants to be June Cleaver.

It's now the rotating seat for Incels and their mothers. First Colt & Debs, then the Family Chantel, and now the worst - Ed and his mother.

And now absorbency becomes size. Lisa Simpson called it the dumbening of America.

Why are Big Ed and his mother joining Pillow Talk? He's not funny, insightful or likable. I know part of the answer is that his mother is joining because jEd always needs a prop, and Teddy can't speak. But, nothing will eradicate his repulsiveness. Even Darcey and Stacy promoting their show, or David and Yolanda, would be preferable.

Playing off AZChristian and Mr. BuhBye (whose entry I couldn't quote): Darcey & Stacey: Boobular, Tubular Twinsations

Ed is always yellng, too.

I've been meaning to ask this: Why is Prince in all of Rose's scenes (except the earlier ones in this episode)? Is he getting an appearance fee? He doesn't need to hear any of this.

Every week. . . "Ash is the perfect customer service representative." It was tiresome after the first time.

She's totally stoned. And, in her case, they don't seem to pretend that she filmed all on the same day.
