I basically f/f through everyone except Granny & Sumeat, and KimBAHley znd Usman. I'm not sure why those two couples but I refuse to give that human garbage, Angel's, any screen time. And that dumbass with the Ukraine fetish - he looks like such a fucking stooge with his ill fitting giant suit and that stupid top hat. He is such a fool.

What a pathetic, sad, bitter, misguided, uneducated, violent and stupid human being. She will spend the rest of her life trying to beat people into caring for her, but she's doomed to never finding a partner. Period.

Jerry Springer material - that is Angela.

These two thought everything was the most hysterical thing they ever heard. Some things aren't all that funny, folks. To me it just reads phony.

Like RON and BETTY.  When/How did THEY become "fan favorites" ???

Engagement parties around here (NJ) are huge gift grabs.

I went to a few when I was in my 20's and 30's and a lot of people I knew were getting married. I don't recall that gifts were expected though, beyond maybe a bottle of Champagne or some flowers or something - and that was more for the host than the happy couple.

Charlie’s wife makes 70k a year selling feet pics but her hair looks like she cut it with kitchen scissors in the dark? Okay, hun.

It WAS pretty raggedy, wasn't it, but I guess most people aren't looking at her hair when she's displaying those bolt ons.

Did I hear correctly in the conversation about Sumit working that he wanted to "go back to cooking with his friend"? Had we heard about this culinary career before? I only remember him working in a call center when he met scammed Jenny.

Is Sumit Brahmin? I don't get the caste system that well, but I've met other Sikhs (and worked for some) in the restaurant business.  That was my take - that,  yes, he has done it before because of his high caste.

Aren't Brahmins the top of the heap? I don't know about it either, but I highly doubt Sumit is from a high caste. I think Sumit's cooking career is something more like selling street food.

Yes.  They can touch food for lower castes, but not vice-versa.  The intersection between Sikh and Hindu confuses me.  I think caste is more of a matter of birth and religion one of faith.  So you can be both, but that's a minority of a minority.  I can appreciate Sharp, etc not wanting to dwell on caste politics, but it's interesting to me as an outsider.  Sumit probably has opportunities the vast majority of Indians do not, despite his fecklessness..

I thought there was mention of a food truck? Did I imagine that?

There might have been and that makes sense.

I read that Sikhism combines some elements of Hindu and others of Islam. Sikhs are separate from Hindus and you can't be both: "Both share some similarities in that they are classified as Indian religions. However, Sikhism is not merely a denomination of Hinduism. It is a distinctly unique religion that was formed much more recently. Sikhs are not Hindus, they have differences in scriptures, social status, worship, religious appearance, and so on."

Yeah I think the men always wear turbans which you don’t usually see with Hindu men.

And daggers.  But you practice Hindu or Sikhism.  You *are* Brahmin.  That's what I mean that you can be both.

Brahmins are at the top of the heap in the caste system but that doesn't translate to wealth. In fact, quite a few are poor. Since they're top of the heap spiritually, they look down on labor. 

Sikh men (and women) if they are really devout, don't shave or cut their hair. The men wear turbans, steel bracelets, and carry a kirpan (dagger). Another cool thing about Sikhs is that they believe in service to the community and doing good--go to any Sikh temple and they'll feed you. There are a couple of good documentaries on Amazon about Sikhism that I've seen fairly recently, worth checking out.

They didn’t make that money with pictures of her feet.  They have done hardcore porn on their OF, I have seen some.

I'm old and pretty judgey about porn, but I have to say this is good news because the thought that someone can make $70,000 a year posting photos of their feet made me very sad.

They were getting on my nerves with the frogs' legs. Why do they have to eat Kermit? (I'm not a vegan - wish I were - but I don't eat anything that would expand my palate anymore and I eat as little meat as possible to still get enough protein.) Maybe it's a thing where they live, but it seemed like they'd never had them before. It made me sad when Ron did the jokey dance thing with the legs.

I'll just say that fried frog legs are delicious.  Fresh ones have what I call a "lake water" taste, which good catfish also has.  For some reason, frog legs are super delicious in the Mexican towns along the Texas border.

There was something mentioned that made me think he'd worked in a food truck.  Maybe it was actual mention of a food truck.  But there was something.

So there's this nothing town north of Sacramento called Yuba City, which I knew because of serial killer Juan Corona, who in the early 1970s murdered and buried in shallow graves a bunch of farm workers there.  A while back I had occasion to be in Yuba City for a week or so, and noticed an unusual number of people in turbans and other Indian garb walking around on the streets, and it turns out they have a huge Sikh population, like the biggest concentration outside India, in this little farming town.  Certainly beats being known for Juan Corona.

I am skipping by Libby, Ed, and even Shaeda (sp).  I find all of the Libby characters annoying, Ed to be vile and, while I like Shaeda, Bilal and his ex make me want to cry for this lovely woman who’s gotten wrapped up with those vipers.

Im behind on this show due to travel an hurricane. Yara is breaking my heart. My neighbor is from Ukraine and this is devastating. They hung a Ukrainian flag on their house and left it up during Irma. I was so happy to see it survived the storm.
