I’m not really a Lu fan, but I sure do admire how well she packs. On every trip she has a reasonably sized roller bag and looks great. Romona always has a steamer trunk and looks like shit.

Sorry for posting midepisode but, Becca just sent David (chicken suit) home and man, girl is ice cold.
She didn’t even say goodbye or give a backward glance (literally)!!!!
I think I love her now.

I appreciated the flashbacks of Luanne being “countess”ey for no other reason than to be reminded of what Bethanny’s old face looked like.

Bobby Z. seemed like a kind, caring and compassionate man, but let’s not forget Jill is awful. I am sorry for her loss but, I can absolutely see her saying the same kind of narcissistic, thoughtless comment that B did in the same situation. “*I* am alone too.”
Would Jill have doubled down and made the shiva about herself (and the fact she was right) too, I’m not saying no.
Jill and Bethany are cut from the same cloth.

Listened to Heather McDonalds Juicy Scoop podcast today - she had an interesting take/comment/listeners scoop regarding Ashley; connection to Ashley and Landon. Hard to believe, but definitely Juicy.
Thanks for the tip on the podcast ITSADRYHEAT.
For those that didn’t get a chance to listen:
The gossip item said that Landon has worked as an “escort” in LA and met her husband and Ashley through that service (or whatever). Ashley has apparently been a gold digger for ages, she’s had several much older, weathy “boyfriends.” Landon apparently made the introduction to Thomas and they made some kind of arrangement. However, when Thomas didn’t sign his contract to be on the show Ashley threatened him (with exposure?). Following the allegations against Thomas, she is basically blackmailing him to keep her around under threat of spilling all the tea.
Not sure what to make of this. If she allegedly has the power, why allow yourself to be shown as a desperate, psycho, doormat?

Sonja needs to stop. Mooching free food, looks like she's drinking again and hitting on young guys. She's going to end up with a mugshot too.
She already has one!

While it must be a nightmare for them, in some ways I think the producers on this show have somewhat of an easy job. These old broads are pros.
Bethenny tells her producer she wants to start a fight with Ramona and to set up a call (but doesn’t even bother to get gussied up to film it) ... Ramona gets a chance to show that, unlike when at other people’s houses, she knows how to take her dog for a walk and also gets to develop her talking points for her call and organize her addled mind.
Lu must have been drunk to squander her season long story line of offense at B calling her a loser (because Carol’s producer told her to bring it up) by letting B distract her by saying she had something on her face. She’s usually a better dancing monkey than that.
And poor Sonja, she’s taken her producer’s advice of spicing it up and punching the “sexy J” to 11. The ten year old story of fucking a “hedge fund” in the servant’s bathroom mimed to her Contractor was insane on every level.

It was too brief an acknowledgement! Bethenny truly is the Grinch that stole/lost friendships! People are seeing her as a rude b!tch who's quite insulting and non-supportive! Others constantly give her praise, but her admiration is rare about others accomplishments! ;-)
Yes to the sentiment and very yes to the comparison. When she was in the Santa hat and shreaking at the arrival of the Nutcracker there was a close up and she looked exactly like the Grinch, same stubbed nose, same hinged smile, same dead eyes and same aura of evil.

I stumbled across a Bravo Daily Dish podcast with Jill Zarin. While it seems like there is a nostalgia about her and a softening of attitude after she lost Bobby, 3 minutes of the podcast is enough to remind you why she received so much hate and scorn. She is horrible, the most self centered, shallow and delusional person on the planet. (Even worse than Ramona!) Worst of all, she is really going on all in on teasing a possible return. First she was on WWHL and now the podcast ... please, please, please Andy, NO!

Dorinda felt she needed to disinvite Sonja (season 8) to BlueStone Mannor because if Sonja went, Bethenny refused to go. Also, that season, Bethenny tried to disinvite Luann on the Mexico trip that never happened. Bethenny threatened to not invite Ramona last season (9) to Mexico but production overrode her and Ramona went. Heck, her, Bethenny's first season back she was nasty to Heather and Kristen and then the following season (8), she/Carole were horrid to Jules, talking smack about her while she was sitting at the same table several times that season. Making fun of Jules Hampton's house while in the home, this was in addition to her attacking Sonja over TG and refusing to be around Sonja. For her to now call out Tinsley/Carole for how they don't want to be around Sonja is laughable IMO.
Bethenny has burned bridges with every one of these women (except Tinsley) over the past few seasons. I’m sure she saw Sonja as the easiest to manipulate and the most desperate (besides herself) for a friendship for the season. She tries to hedge her hypocrisy by making mention of Sonja’s “other issues” - but on this super important issue of whether or not Tinsley said thank you - she’s on Sonja’s side and will advocate for her, but how dare Carol do the same for Tinsley. She is so transparent in how she “produces” herself.

I couldn’t even focus on the nonsense coming out of Carol’s mouth because I could’t stop looking at Carol’s mouth - the right side doesn’t even move anymore. She had a challenging mouth to begin with, why fool around with Botox/fillers (?) in an already troublesome area!?! Also, how can 3 hard boiled eggs be too much but 1 hard boiled and 2 scrambled not be too much?? It is still 3 eggs?!?!
So much to say about Ramona at the nail salon (hair, make up, outfit) but what stood out to me was the look of absolute glee in learning Carol had no idea that Bethany took Dorinda the Drunk to Puerto Rico.
Dorinda has a major inferiority complex that seems to drive a lot of the drunk outbursts (whether someone walking in the door ahead of her a la Heather, or not feeling as accomplished as the Miami dinner companions, even her hatred toward Sonja) ... maybe the booze gives her “Dutch courage” or she’s just an “angry drunk”.

With all their (many!) faults, these are attractive, wealthy and mostly successful women. I’m amazed they can’t find any men better than the likes of Tom, Dennis, John, etc. Not one man on this show is attractive or otherwise appealing (except boy toy Adam). I don’t get it.
Welcome to New York! :) The struggle is real.

Patricia is a thirsty, old, jealous cow with no manners. Why she injects herself into this group is a mystery.
I could see that she may have wanted to help her son get his show off the ground in season 1 and agreed to play a ridiculous “grand old dame” for comic relief. Her continued involvement is ridiculous and her immature, mean girl behavior is a terrible look for her. She’s a successful gold digger, period. Putting on airs and behaving in this way only makes it more obvious that all she’s achieved is through someone else. She has absolutely no natural grace, intelligence or any of attributes that are associated with good manners or good “breeding”.
And while you can’t put all of the responsibility/blame for someone’s personality on their parents, Whitney is hardly an endorsement for her. His creepy, inappropriate misogynist nature certainly does seem like a reaction to having her as a Mother. A telegram to announce she’s run off with her latest “mark”, just ugh!

You do know that they eventually found the north-west passage, right?
Sorry I wasn’t clear, thanks and yes there is a navigable Northwest Passage, now, but it doesn’t quite fit the expectations and some of the wilder theories of the day about what they would find (palm trees and temperate weather). Funny to think today, you can actually take a pleasure cruise on a route similar to Franklin’s and that the Chinese are trying to make it a viable shipping route thanks to the recent thinning ice.
The last book I read on the subject, “In the Kingdom of Ice: The Grand and Terrible Polar Voyage of the USS Jeannette” (highly rrecommend!) stayed with me, especially Petermann’s theory that there was a quasi tropical island perched on top of the world.

I don't understand why the captain who spoke "native" didn't they ask Lady Silence or the other Inuits around them for help foraging for food to replenish their supplies e.g. fishing.
Maybe plain old British arrogance/hubris. They needed a Pochohontas.
That’s what I don’t get in general about the whole northwest passage/polar sea theory and how long it endured ... at some point, didn’t the explorers encounter enough natives to learn that the theory was bunk?

Random thoughts on episode 5 "Wahhhh!"
- Oy, the "loved ones" episode is going to be brutal
- I found Stephanie's "yay, me!" proclamations much more bearable by mentally adding "and my huge boobs" to the end of her sentences
- I don't drink coffee and dislike pastries, so Chris Sale's performance at the challenge would not have mattered to me (even as genuinely impressive as it was)
- For the first time in a season and a half, no one had an idol, advantage, legacy, fake idol, fake advantage, fake legacy, probstian pardon, or ancient talisman. The streak is at 1.
Yes, the big fake boobs were a distraction, it is usually not so glaring until the contestants loose weight, but right out of the gate Stephanie’s were front and center. I also think her hair color was fake, it kept bugging me and I almost wanted her to stay to see what color her roots were. Yes, I am shallow.

So much tension over whether to vote out Angela or Morgan and I'm just like: "Who the hell are Angela and Morgan?" I didn't enjoy this episode as much as last week but I think that's because there are so many of them and I still don't really know who's who or who was on which original tribe.
Yes, yes, yes. I had no idea about what was going on and the whole episode had no stakes for me. TPTB did us a disservice by introducing us to so few of the women on last week’s two (!) episodes.
All the drama this week involved two women who I literally never met before. With the tribe swap on top of that, it was difficult to keep up.

Watching Arie and Lauren is like watching two 13 year olds, they are both terribly immature and shallow. They are as infuriating as any teenager out there. (Who but a teenager would say waiting a month and a half was sooooo long?!?!?)
Also, Chris Harrison needs to STFU about all hate he is getting.

If I was Lauren I’d be trying to tunnel my way out of the green room to safety with an empty K cup and a plastic swizzle stick right about now.
Yep. I was annoyed that Bekah M. was interrupted by stupid Tia when she was giving her long winded advice to Lauren ... now that you’ve seen “the footage”, you have to drop this selfish, man child who has the attention span of a fruit fly.
If only she’d want to tunnel out of the green room. Somehow she is even more superficial and shallow than he is. Pffft, no sympathy for her whatsoever for when the inevitable dumping occurs.

It’s like watching a void talk to a vacuum.
So very true!! I could sense the Producer sitting next to the cameraperson and miming “smile” while filming Lauren’s talking heads. For me, Lauren is the void and Arie is the very thirsty vacuum.
She is truly as empty as she seems: I see our lives so clearly: we would drink coffee in the morning then go to work, then have dinner AND on the weekends we’ll take the dogs to the park. Is she a robot who has been programmed with the bare minimum understanding of human life?!?? When not engaged in the above activities, I picture her sitting perfectly still will a scowl on her face until the alarm sounds and she’s off to her next proscribed mundane activity.

Wow, karma is indeed a bitch. Toast isn’t so easy is it Joestashio?! Although it does seems like he gained a lot from the experience and third place is not too shabby.

Onto the contenders…one internet sleuth spotted a swimsuit photo of Lauren who displayed some impressive washboard abs. Her little crop-top number in the episode hints at it. Some of the Bachelorettes eg Jenna and, of course, Krystal have made a big deal out of being gym rats but Lauren has been doing her share of crunches it seems.
Speaking of the “late” Krystal ... from the media thread, this is insane!

Oh she totally could not keep a straight face. I couldn't tell if it was because she knew it was coming or she was trying to hide her flattery over being chased. In any event, it went over like a fart in church. He was all set to declare his love and take no prisoners attitude with his chest all puffed up when talking to Arie.. and once Becca said you have no right to do this, he turns around and says I have no right being here. lolol either Becca really does have him wrapped around her finger or they just had no idea how to ad lib some drama into this little set up.
Guess we’ll never know the extent of the set up but the way Becca’s eyes went directly from Ross to the camera person behind him said something to me ... what? I’m not sure. Also Becca’s “I knew you were going to do this.” Everything else aside, she did seem totally over him to me.

S10.E13: Arrest and Relaxation
in The Real Housewives Of New York City
· Edited by escatefromny
I assumed Dorinda was talking about the time she was at the Regency (of course!) and attacked a man with her shoe while, I presume, in one of her drunken rages.

and of course my “source” is Page 6 :) and Harry Dubin was there.
