Using a friend's without her knowledge? Grosser! LOL.

Ugh. These ladies were such an embarrassment. I've had friends of friends (I'm middle aged) who think it's funny to sexually harass young men who are just doing their jobs (construction, waiting tables, property maintenance, etc.). They think it's hilarious and cute; it's not. It's cringe, awkward, inappropriate, distasteful, rude, low class, etc.) And who is surprised there are no grits or Cheetos in Norway? I can see why people dislike us. When I travel internationally and someone is acting like a jerk, they're pretty much always American. We often come across as loud, demanding, self-centered, and ignorant.

Why do they care about Lindsey and Carl? Get a life, people! Carl and Lindsey made it "official" in Oct. Incident was in Sept. These people are boring busybodies. Kory and Jessica? Ew. They're making my skin crawl. Kory's a creep; Jess is apparently dumb enough to buy his transparent efforts to control her. This is toxic and disturbing, actually. Hope it keeps decent women from giving Kory the time of day in the future. He's so gross.

He could have watched a few YouTube videos on how to make American pancakes. Not all that hard.

I was really skeeved out by the primary. I hope he watches it and sees how grossed out everyone was. What's with these old ass guys thinking young women want to have sex with them? And then he flirted with Nat and she said in response to the camera, "Yuck." Yeah. That's what literally everyone is thinking. You're gross. He reminds me of a friend of my husband's who told me he watches porn. I threw up a little in my mouth. Ain't nobody wants to picture that, dude. Ever.

Very creepy. The mean part of me kind of loved how obvious it was that everyone thought he was pervy and creepy. Sorry, dude, no twenty-something wants to have sex with you. Ever. Ew. Or flirt with you. As Nat said in response to his flirtatious remark, 'Yuck." I hope he watches it.

Yes! I just discovered them a few months ago and it's my favorite thing to listen to when doing housework, etc. I actually skipped recording this season of Below Deck Med because the first few episodes were so boring, but once I saw that the WWC guys had covered it, I changed my mind and am watching it. I love them! It's like spending an evening with your snarky and hilarious friend. Their impressions of Dave, Tash, and her ex are hilarious, too. "Are ya tired, Dave? Are ya tired?" LOL. Oh and I love your profile name.

Yeah, Jason is very annoying because he comes off as arrogant but I think it's insecurity. It bothered him a lot when his jokes didn't "land." I think the polite thing for Mzi and Courtney to do is at least fake chuckle every now and then so he doesn't feel so excluded. Don't get me wrong; I think he's obnoxious but his attitude got much worse and more defensive after Courtney came on and they were all laughing together and leaving him out. It's not a nice feeling to be left out. LOL! Yeah, Tash and Dave are sooooooo dramatic. I tend towards being dramatic myself, but jeez Louise. Obviously her ex is equally dramatic. Crimey. And poor Mzi, It's hard to be in the friend zone when you want to be more, but I don't blame him for acting like he's cool with it. I've definitely done that when someone wasn't into me romantically but I still really enjoyed their company. I think Kyle would be perfect as a recruiter. The guy's definitely got an outgoing enough personality. I can just imagine him: "Babe. let me tell you something, Babe. You've GOT to be on _________ show, Babe! Look at you; you're gorgeous, Babe." It's a great way to meet hot guys, too. Good for him. TBH I found it triggering AF. I didn't think I would, but I had a boyfriend who crossed the line into abusive stalker when I broke up with him. Dave reminded me of him (but not that hot, of course): needy, fragile, and doting. We dated for like 2-3 months and it was a disaster. After I broke up with him he'd follow me around campus crying, made suicidal threats, threatened my next boyfriend, etc., etc. I ran into him 25 years later and just said "hello" in response to his greeting and and he was still a jerk to me and all pissed off that we didn't chat it up. Like dude I had to get a restraining order on your ass. We're not friends. Anyway...I don't think it helps Dave to defend his behavior. I don't think he's as bad as my ex, but he needs a lot of therapy to figure out why he's so needy in intimate relationships. He's got weak boundaries and a fragile sense of self. That can lead to disaster, as we've seen on this show. But Tash seems to have issues, too, and her ex is a nightmare as well.

I can't understand why Tash told Dave that she was trying to get back together with her old boyfriend. That seemed very unkind to me. Obviously that is going to upset him. Then she acts hurt when he's cold to her and says they can only talk about work stuff. I agree that his behavior was atrocious, but she doesn't seem at all willing to look at things from his side or consider his feelings at all. It's all about her feelings and whining about what a hard time she's having. She wants it both ways. And Nat! I was rooting for her, but her lack of seeing Storm's perspective is ridiculous. The guy just got the opportunity that he's been wanting for years, and here she's pissed cuz he dares to discuss it with Mzi. How immature. I appreciate a man who takes his work seriously. I guess she wants an F boy. Storm was so polite and took her to a nice dinner, and here she is acting like an obnoxious jerk. Then he apologizes to her the next day? He didn't do a damn thing. Girl, bye.

I thought I liked Luke but him hitting on Jessica so hard was a douche mood. On the other hand, he was probably told by the producers to step up his game and have a story line, so stealing Jason's friend and the ensuing drama would fit the bill. He is definitely a player. Jessica probably moved to LA to try to get a job in the entertainment industry. So, good for her I guess. I thought it was interesting that she said she's always attracted to the "most powerful person in the room." Kind of like a cult leader? I'm guessing "powerful" in her mind=has money. I'm loving that Paige is already getting sick of Craig's drunken antics. I know someone like that; he's fine with his wife one on one but when he's in a group he overdrinks and turns into an obnoxious asshole. It appears to be all from insecurity, just like Craig. Craig can strut around and all that but I sense a lot of fragility there.

Great point! Poor Rodney was put in a very bad position. Yes! Yes! Yes!

As much as I like Rodney, I would have been taken aback by his comments like "You're my forever person" and all this after knowing me for only a few days. At some point I would wonder how he could be so sure without really knowing me. Almost like he likes the idea of Eliza (gorgeous package with cutesy AF smile) but barely knows her. I don't think that's a good sign. If a woman said things like that right away, everyone would think it's okay for the man to run like Michael did when his last girlfriend started talking about being a stepmom. I was very hard on Eliza in my last post, but I do feel sorry for her now. It's hard not to succumb to pressure from a group when you're far away from home and family. (I have to admit I think some of my ire was jealousy. I've never been the adorable type that men can't wait to take care of.) I thought the same thing. She's got a bit of a sadistic streak going on there.

Yeah, it was too bad that Victoria took it totally the wrong way. It wasn't them "talking shit" at all. They were just relaying the confusion over the pun. I actually like Victoria, but I think she's overly sensitive. Adja's reaction to Victoria and Marlo (sp?) staying late kind of confused me, too. Some people are just closer to each other and they stayed longer to meet up with Dad. It's not all that deep, and the plane ride from Cannes to Paris is probably quite short in duration. It's too bad when people's insecurities cause them to look for things to get offended by. These women are a helluva lot younger than me, but over time I've learned that it's best to just take things at face value and not look for some big message. People who look for things to get upset about usually find them, and it makes them miserable.

Yep. I feel like she is twisting this around so that she can choose Justin and not look like she was mean to Rodney, the most beloved guy in Bachelor Nation. I don't buy that she's never had 2 guys interested in her at once; she's drop dead gorgeous with a killer bod and a really, really cute smile. Guys are hitting on her constantly. I guarantee it. On another note, she seems to have an odd idea of what constitutes a healthy relationship. Her reaction to the fight between Aaron and Gen was odd to me. It appears that she thinks that drama and histrionic displays mean that someone is truly invested. (Victoria had a weird reaction, too.) I don't think Rodney is given to dramatic displays of aggression; he seems like a well-meaning, chill guy. Maybe they're not a good match after all. I don't know; I am drama phobic so the idea of enjoying fights is bizarre to me. I grew up in a needlessly dramatic environment. I hate that shit, but to each his own I guess.

This is why some of these gorgeous, seemingly decent people are still single. It's like they put up little tests for their significant other to pass, and if they don't respond in the right way, then they're "not their person." Give me a break. No one's a mind reader. I've been married for 20 plus years and I still don't always know what my husband wants. Geez, people! Enough with the mind games. And spoiler alert: a similar situation arises in the next episode. So much stupidity!

Yeah, I actually liked Taylor before this "whores" rant. It was bad. She did it on the first episode of the reunion, and I thought maybe she'd simmer down and not do it again. Nope, she doubled down on the "whores" thing. So, Danni is a "whore"? What about Kathryn? They were with Shep, too. I do feel badly for her that her parents are still Team Shep. All that talk about Jesus and being so Christian and whatnot, but it's okay if your daughter is engaging in premarital sex with a promiscuous man who cheats and disrespects her? Oh, I forgot. He's rich so it's okay.

The thing that bothers me about the Kathy/Kyle dynamic is that after the eventful night in Aspen, there was a social media post with Kyle and Rinna saying something like, "Of course we're gonna talk about it." So obviously Kyle was part of stirring up the drama against Kathy. It may have ended up going further than she had planned, but she was apparently in it from the beginning. Now she's upset because her nieces are mad at her and it might cause problems for her daughters. I think she is genuinely upset, but she did play a significant role in making Kathy's meltdown into a story line. For her to act like a completely innocent victim is only making her look worse You aren't a victim, Kyle. You are someone facing the consequences of your actions. Please, Erika. You won't even give up some expensive-ass earrings to help compensate the victims your husband stole from. You don't give 2 effs about helping anyone. I can understand that she doesn't want to lose everything, but ridiculously expensive earrings? Buy some similar lab-made diamonds (or cubic zircona) and call it a day.

Yes, I love Garcelle but I think she's too good for this show. I will be surprised if she returns; having her son get racist death threats just isn't worth it.

Or maybe Rinna would have knocked on Mo's door and woke him up if she was really fearful that Kathy was having a "psychotic break"? I mean, it is his sister-in-law and they are at his house. If Kathy was so unhinged, wouldn't Rinna be worried that she could do damage to the house? Also, why wouldn't Rinna have called or texted Kyle to let her know that her sister was completely melting down? Rinna did NOT want this to go away. She was visibly annoyed each time Kyle and Kathy appeared to be making amends. Even if Kathy said horrible things, why is it such a big deal if the parties involved want to move on? Where was this outrage when Erika was screaming that she only cares about herself? Or when she threatened Sutton? Rinna was so quick to forgive and forget those incidents. The difference is that she didn't want Kathy on the show. She appears to be jealous. I also think people are right when they say the Faux Force Five only want yes-people on the show who won't question them or show their real lives. Hey, it's a paycheck and they want to keep control of the narrative at all times. That's why the show is so boring now.

To be honest, I'm kinda digging Johnny now and I thought he was unattractive before. Maybe I have bad taste; at least for reality tv guys.

Sure did!

Yeah, their dynamic was creepy. To me Jared still looks like he's going through the motions. The flashbacks of Ashley ugly crying at him Season 2 still give me secondhand embarrassment. The 2 Bros look like such meatheads. Anyone who spends that much time in the gym is obviously obsessed with themselves. I'm glad when I was young guys just looked like average people. They didn't spend all day in the gym trying to achieve the perfect physique, and we women weren't getting all kinds of treatments/surgeries to change our appearance. We wore too much makeup, though. I'm starting to hate this show. There's just too much crying and hurt feelings. The last Bachelorette season was like this, and now BIP is depressing AF.

So boring so far! I don't want to watch hours of people nervously giggling at each other or making out. Poor Lace is so crazy. Genevieve is such a killjoy. I feel mean, but Teddie bugs me for some reason. I feel that she depends on her cuteness so much that there's not much of a personality there, but the other cast members seem to like her so maybe I'm biased. I don't find Johnny, Logan, or Naked Guy attractive. Johnny in particular seems like he's been on the prowl for years. I can't imagine getting busy in a room designated solely for that purpose. Ew. Even the resort looks tacky and unappealing to me. Maybe I'm just too damn old for this....

Yeah, it appears that her "Influencer" thing is working for her. I think she's socially a little awkward and out of her depth. Her tears over Naomie's dismissal of their friendship looked real to me. I hope she only stays on the show if it works for her. To me she seems too sensitive to be on a show like this. (I would be, too. I'd probably be bawling every time someone was the slightest bit mad at me. I'm a big wimp...)

I honestly don't think so, but maybe I missed them. Yeah, I feel like Venita was put in a very difficult position.
