  1. She had nice scrubs the last time she was on too with a flattering empire waist although she wore a lot of '80's dusty rose. Now, as for the green shirtdress with *gasp* another belt... She'd probably wear a belt with the scrubs if they'd let her. Dan's don't look terrible either. Edited because I forgot I was in the clothing thread.
  2. I identified with Gary Numan or Kraftwerk but yes. Still a vast improvement over the CSNY peasant shirts. She looked great in a bit of bohemian but given her politics that wasn't her.
  3. Theresa and Nicole look like they have PTSD so I can excuse a little mopiness. These ladies have sheet heaped on them daily with rarely a kind, supportive word. Jordan is in a world of hurt but is a little better able to stand up for herself because she has fewer ties with the good people of Salem but the ones she knows aren't listening to her. But damned if I'm still shocked by Clydsicle throwing her across the room the other week and on the bed. Huge ICK factor. I agree she shouldn't have confronted him in his room alone but to me that's dangerously close to saying you shouldn't have worn that dress. I completely understand her anger over the money. I don't think she says or cares where it came from but she is a good person whose good deed was tainted by Clydsicle including himself and her brother and Vapidfail lying to her the entire time. Sure, she should just come out and say it but the girl is scared to death and we can see why. I hope Kate walks into one of those situations and steps over to Jordan's side and gives him hell. Once vindicated but still realizing she's lost BOllie to Clydsicle (or he's in too deep at that point) she leaves town like we know she is going to. But at least there'll be a payoff to the SL. Vic uses the word bitch very freely and I don't like it if only because he has a better vocabulary. Still, his zingers are spot-on so I can overlook it. Somewhat. The only male equivalent is the D word which isn't really used in nice company. Or maybe the P word since the equivalent of a woman speaking her mind would be calling a man weak woman with no D. Bonus: It's insulting to both genders. A few months back when this subject came up I wrote I'd never called another female a B or a S or a W, etc. I'll use the B word as a verb however which brings up a fond memory wherein I was joking with a good male cowker friend and said aww kwitcherbitchin. I was promptly written up for swearing and that was my first step out the door of that particular hellhole. Wow, so the whole Ted thing was a waste of time? And more men verbally abusing Nicole? Judgy and Suddenly Southern in the same room? I'm not sure I even want to catch up on the last two days but maybe I will once the Snoozerbowl, I mean the Hyperbole, gets underway. There's always the new Downton Abbey to look forward to tonight!
  4. Adopt don't shop. I don't even "help out" neighbors or coworkers whose pet "somehow" had a litter. I've had 1-3 cats for the past 30 years, mostly females, and never once had a litter. They all come from our county animal shelter. In fact the one in my avatar just passed away last week at 15 and as soon as my son is ready we'll be heading back there and we'll be considering older pets as well. With dogs though, people's first instinct seems to be to seek out a breeder.
  5. Often it comes down to the company putting a value on the claim and adding on potential defense costs and making a nominal offer to get the claim to go away. Probably what would happen here is the company would claim there was no negligence then offer to pay for medical bills only. If she's a RH she's probably paying a nice premium on an expensive house so the company may want to keep her business. If an injury happens on your property the contract says they owe you a defense regardless, but it sometimes happens that they'll hire their own atty as well to protect their own interest under the contract if the claim is valuable enough. Paying out money to people who run to attorneys in order to get a referral to a chiropractor usually, who treats them 3-5 times a week then pronounces them cured once the med pay limit is used up is what burned me out from doing insurance claims.
  6. I was waiting for someone better than me (I?) to say this but Victor/Vapidgail was a thing of beauty. He kept saying why are you here? The brilliance is when after an eternity he got up close to her with his arms out and she was all expecting a pat and a hug and he took the drink from her hand and turned her around like the Grinch with Cindy Lou Hoo and pushed her out of the door. Opened mouthed she left. As far as Stef being involved, it's just another obnoxious propping of the Abifail. Goddamn it give it up already show. I do have to give it to show for having a little intelligence in understanding that Serena would only have to look at the last viewed date log on her computer to know it all lines up and deduce the files were probably copied. I don't mind the texting either since they don't overdo it. I'm more annoyed by "I can't talk to you over the phone I have to see you in person" for something they could say in ten words. I guess that stretches out the scenes hence the slow writing. Having just said that, I think there are some interesting things going on. What I miss is the payoff. Like what never happened with Sami.
  7. Yeah, I laughed over the pig comments but when JJ found real negligent damage and son referenced parties and skateboards and we took all the doors off the closet, I sympathized with mother. Kid doesn't give a shit and I'm glad she said the bank is closed. About the FBI it was hard to hear because plaintiff was talking over JJ but JJ asked why the local authorities would dismiss what she acknowledged was a felony assault case, plaintiff I believe said her local police was being investigated by the FBI. Sure.OTOH plaintiff did look to be seriously injured from the pictures. I was waiting for JJ to ask where bully mommy's bf was in all of this since plaintiff said she got a couple of punches from him. I guess she decided to dismiss the whole thing before she heard testimony. I do admire how she thoroughly reads and remembers the summons and complaints. Not sure why she doesn't get documentation like the police report ahead of time. Although 17 yr old bully used the word altercation I thought I saw an approving nod on JJ's part because the kid seemed intelligent and articulate. I got the feeling that the particular plaintiff kid was sort of under her radar - that she wasn't the main bully - but hopefully she'll mature and get a better attitude. Weepy plaintiff kid? I hope she escapes her misguided mother and trashy aunt and goes off to college far away. Since I don't comment here very often. Byrd? Annoying enough that he can't be bothered to fetch documents four feet away but he looks at them. None of his business. It wouldn't take me a lot to like Byrd and JJ obviously trusts him but sheet show up for the job Byrd. It's probably putting your kids through college.
  8. Don't forget how Auntie who seemed like a real troublemaker was in Walgreens buying smokes so they "decided" to walk the few blocks to Dairy Queen so they crossed the street to go past defendants' trailer park in order to go to the cigs shop a few doors down from the trailer park. Sometimes people have to live where they have to live but what a terrible neighborhood this sounds like. And bratty bully was hanging out in the garage having a party with 9 fellow bullies. I'm 17 you can't touch me. Truth Machine went on to destroy dog owner and smug dog walker. Smug Miss Press winked and mugged for the camera. It was interesting to see JJ show exactly how she proved cute asian lady plaintiff was telling the truth by asking dog owner if she extended her trip as dog walker said she did. In the hallterview plaintiff said she wanted to be good neighbors while dog walker declared her dog was an angel and the other 4 dogs were crazy. Gotta thank the camera people for capturing the faces she made.
  9. I really need to say something about tonight's rerun - but then, aren't they all reruns? Chris and the wild rice. Jack was accurately describing how wild rice traditionally is harvested in Canada and the northern midwest. They mentioned MN a lot but left out WI completely. Well, CK imho completely humiliated himself by dismissing the method as "disney-like" and "do you believe in the tooth fairy" comments 5-6 times. Native Americans did in fact, and still do, use canoes to float through flooded ride beds, beating the tops of the grasses with sticks or oars and the grains fall into the canoe. Fuck U Chris Kimball.
  10. JJ went to that start of school college party in the woods and had a red solo cup of beer and had his pic taken with a girl by Bev who sent it to LB. JJ tried to meet LB at Dingy's apt and she got the pic so he had another beer out of Dingy's frigde while waiting. She showed up and accused him of being drunk and hanging out with girls at a party she wouldn't attend.. He chased her to Southern's apt. Southern had been drowning her sorrows with white wine over not being able to get her throat surgery. ETA I almost forgot, the girl in the pic was a hooker Southern hired to break them up.
  11. This show is obsessed with Catholicism. I don't know why and I don't care and I don't know what Cordray's background is but I've said before I've spent more time in the Catholic church on this show than I've had in my entire life. Don't get me started on Haiden's angelic sex. Still if anyone needs a religious upbringing it would be Ciara. Hopefully one that includes teachings about loving and helping the sick and poor and not being a greedy little brat who threatens adults and blackmails.
  12. Some people like the manic sex JJ and Eve have believe it or not. To me it comes from KDP constantly overstepping her part by a good beat. She jumps in one beat ahead of the action with the hands hands hands flailing and grabbing anyone and anything. She does it with Paige too so I can't blame her for the constant downward looks never being allowed to get a word in. And she shouts and says JJ JJ JJ JJ. It's as bad as when Judgey used to say Jack Jack Jack Jack. ETA I'm dispensing with commas for the most part because I really can't see the screen not that I don't know better. Since I spend a lot of time here and with other forums too, and you all graciously have let me speak my mind and make me laugh every day I just wanted to share that our kitty Prowler Alexander's heart stopped while on the vet's table yesterday. He wasn't well but it was really unexpected for a checkup and I gave this cat to my son when he was 10. So it brings up the loss of his father at 25 poor kid. No need for anyone to say anything I'm just happy to be able to say something.
  13. Pre Lucas Adrianne was so awful I don't blame Justin for leaving and/or cheating. One of the things I love about Jackson is his patience with her, gently reining in his mother's rants and judgements. Most kids would say ok mom then avoid her. But don't get me started on Jackson's awful, awful haircut. (ok, mom) As much as I hate a Ludrienne pairing we'd see more of Lucas and I loved Lumi. It would also be interesting if tiger mom was Autumn but since they were engaged how could he not know about Paul? Surely they will get involved just in time to argue over Sneasel's affair. Just as Dumbass and Toothy will get serious just in time for Baby Dumbass. WilSon isn't leaving the show anytime soon. They will end up back together for sure and that's a big part of why this story bores me.
  14. Don't forget that Will and that Dario kid lived there too. And nobody cooked. There was one sofa and a TV. But they had sunshine which is rare among the glass tiled backsplash and grey sheets every apt in Salem has.
  15. My guess is Chez Rouge - what a really deep name - is abandoned because people stopped going once it turned into Naggie closing the entire place for a couple only to have her hover every ten min. Easier to stalk them around Salem, she thinks. Speaking of that branch of the family I don't understand why late 20's Melanie would be staying with Dan. I admit I'm preoccupied with apartments with no real kitchen that magically grow bedrooms as needed (Rafe and Sami's). Dan would have a 2 br at the most and used one for a home office until Parker showed up. Like I said, I'm preoccupied. But I guess I won't want her staying at the Kimansion either so she and Naggie can coo at each other and she can bump into Brady daily in his towel. It also annoys me that Mel spent a few years bumming around S'Merka and Yurp going to parties and gambling without any income.
  16. She has a huge jaw and hanging her mouth open doesn't help. Lots of Serena bug eye today and I only caught part of the show. She sure knows how to press Eric's buttons into scaring him b y mentioning the bedroom. I hope Nicky will be vindicated in the end. What's funny is the African art really caught my eye when they gave Eeyore the apartment set. I think Serena has some potential to fit in on the show but the plot they're giving her seems like a one-and-done. She knows he's not giving up anything except maybe some art. Or maybe it's not art. Maybe Sonix will discover and print the pics of Eeyore lounging with his legs open along with another disasterous story written by Sneasel? Talking about forced couplings, I still can't get the stupid football scenes out of my head. AZ is such a better actress than that and how can a real life couple have ZERO chemistry over and over again. Dan's as judgmental as Jenn and that's why they belong together so they can go away. Or at least let JJ move out. I get the idea Jackson met Twinkly Eyes Sparkle Teeth about the time he got his contract which he said happened pretty fast. These are all guys in their early 20's. And that Jackson just followed him around and hid out as we saw when the manager showed up in the flashback. So yeah, Sparkle has less relationship experience than Will I would say.
  17. Well, I dunno. I just learned about a thing called eggplant Fridays and while I'm up with that... I'd feel the same if I googled KM or JL or any of the younger actresses. I wouldn't necessarily expect to see a 2:1 of nudity vs acting shots. Looks like he has some acting cred though, which is great. I hate s JL getting involved with the Kristen goon although it will pull her back into Brady's orbit and I liked JL and Brady. They had nowhere to go but up and if a kid matures that manchild I'm all for it. Like a few others on this show he's capable of more. I sort of don't mind the Brady/Melanie quirkiness but despite her quirkiness I suspect she's personally a very smart girl and I'd rather see her with Chad. Naggie should wave down Paige in the middle of Horton Square intending to butt into the Deveraux household some more and they should both be hit by a bus. Especially if Abifail guppy is lined up behind her. ETA Ok, because it's my day off and I'm thinking about it, what I wouldn't give to see JL seduce Eeyore on a one night stand starting with removing the priestly grey hoodie. I don't care if they're related. Oh, and I've been with you all on how disgusting CreepyKate are. For a long time. But right after that horrible physical abuse of TamiFlu. I feel dirty just watching both acts. I guess that makes him a good actor but cheeses Days, who the f do you think you're writing for.
  18. It's not so much a blinking issue with me as it is the intentional bugging out of the eyes to prove a point, I guess.
  19. I wasn't so uncomfortable with the age gap with guppy faced Abs and EJ since I put her at 23 and even assuming EJ is as old as 40 that's 17 years. And she pursued him nonstop and JJ is doing nothing like that. JJ is 18 and Suddenly Southern and Judgey are what, 48? So that's almost twice the age gap of Ejabby. Desperate Page needs to be hit by a bus while following JJ. Early on I was hoping they'd just run off together and have sex (gasp!) and ditch their awful mothers but it's too late for that now. There's nothing likeable about her other than feeling sorry for the emotional abuse Eve is heaping on her. A big gap in the story is why Eve didn't just make her stay in CA with Auntie Patsy to separate and start her life in Stanford. Oh, because All About Eve has to make it all about Eve and keep her under control? I think Eve would have freaked over ANY boyfriend but the fact that he is a Deveraux.. Anything has to make her happier than this. But I imagine Lima Bean would strongly frown at any beer party ever.
  20. Gosh it would be an interesting storyline if poor little Chase with the dark circles under his eyes had an awful secret that he might not realise. I'm trying to fit in the part about how scared he was telling Hope not to tell his dad he mentioned money. That broke my heart. I'm not really seeing any impulse control issues though, at least not in Salem. Maybe this is another case of fans writing a better story. About Grimace's car crash killing baby 'billy...more reason for Creepy to try to hurt her, isn't it? Dammit Jordan if you would have just told someone a year ago you might have been interesting.
  21. Ugh. Exactly what the SPD needs. A 60 something year old with a recent history of traumatic brain injury and coma, with decision making skills poorer than Brady's and grunting and hissing through every scene. Kiiiiid! Doooooc! Why, show. Why?
  22. I was watching an old episode of the Alfred Hitchcock Hour and Macdonald Carey played the husband. He had a long career so that's not too unusual but I kept thinking I knew who the wife was. Turns out she was our own Peggy McCay!
  23. "Hillbilly son of a bitch!" LMFAO
  24. Wow, I kind of like Sneasel's shirt and jeans today even better than the plaid Jackson has been wearing for days. Oh gawd he's doing the bull face again. Um, is he getting overly pumped up or a bit tubby for his clothes or both? I suspect he's aging since he's 30 playing a 22 yr old. Nicky looks completely work appropriate in the eggplant dress. Much more than what most people wear to the hospital. I'm not a big fan of short hair but she's really rocking the Sharon Stone methinks. And she did get a little, um, a lot, bodacious as others have mentioned Speaking of hair I like Kate's occasional blue streak. MA's dress is not my taste but she looks great in it. If she would just tone down the buggy eye;. It looks like all the men are trying to do the Bob's Big Boy cut. Ick. I don't understand why someone as pretty as Jordan keeps maintaining those ugly expressions. She's ruining her career although she seems a bit more animated now that she is rid of Rafe. I did like her in the t-shirt days before Creepy showed up. Ha ha, Ann in another wrap dress. She looks like she's had a VaCa on an island. Good for her. Can someone tell me if Creepy's accent is put on? I'd really like to know because I'm not familiar with him.
