Right? I'm struggling to stay awake here. 

Anyone have anecdotes? Houseguest is in NYC for the weekend so I have been lazing around and doing housewifely tasks. And today I took my kitchen chairs, which were old conference room chairs that I salvaged from Tufts, and scrubbed them down. The chairs are wood and really nice, not some shit plastic conference room furniture. I've been ignoring them for years, idly wondering if I should paint them or leave them be. You know, they're old. But I scrubbed off some of the finish too, which tells me that the wood is probably not super high quality so do I really want to preserve it? Painting them white would look super cute in my kitchen. Thoughts?

Oh Ashley. "I yell because I'm triggered because I wasn't heard as a child"?? Jesus, woman, you are what, 34 years old? Get therapy and quit blaming your childhood. I am DYING here.

Jasmine's baby talk to the alligator is bizarre, even for her.  Now she wants to be in a pageant for low self-esteem issues?   

Its part of their never ending search for a story line. She really can't get much more plastic surgery. It looks like they've opted not to go the "visit to a fertility specialist" route. So what's left? Launch a fashion line?

I can't be a good influence here, because I have bought several chairs thinking I would paint them all white, but that hasn't happened yet. But one of them has a beautiful carved floral back, and I 100% am going to refinish and reupholster this chair if it kills me!

I’d try the white paint.

She should open an axe throwing place.

I would love to see Jasmine's fashion line. I'm sure it would be very classy! 😉

I love the look of wood, I have a few antique pieces so if it does turn out to be good quality I would do a nice oil or stain. Otherwise paint away!

You go girl, I believe in you!

I've been watching lots of furniture flip videos lately, I'm getting inspired. I still have to repaint my coffee table (I do it every few. years), and I have a blanket chest I've been wanting to paint and line with cedar. Now that the weather's nice I can lug stuff outside. The blanket chest is just an MDF one from Overstock, so painting it wouldn't be a gross sacrilege.

I'd refinish them in a wood tone. My tabletop was white and it began to look gross, so I did one of those Minwax wood finishes and never looked back.

I have a couple of old wood office chairs (also from Tufts, they never threw anything away!). A swivel desk chair and a guest chair, both really old and nice, I wouldn't touch them with paint. Ditto old school desks, I have three, and wouldn't dream of painting them. The conference room chairs are old but I don't think they're super great quality. And the existing finish, after washing, is a disappointing orange-y brown color. I think a coat or two of no bleed primer and some bright white paint would look cute in my kitchen, which is painted white and robins egg blue. I could paint my table too, I bought it at Pier One 30 odd years ago, the wood doesn't match the chairs, so painting everything white would bring it all together.

A fashion line, by way of drop shipments from Ali Baba, or a makeup line that never materializes.

I painted my Conran's coffee table white years ago when the cheap veneer finish started getting shitty. So I repaint it every so often when it gets tired looking. I think I'm going to paint it a bright color next, just for fun. I love that thing, It cost me $140 sometime in the 80s, its HUGE.

I bought my table at Pier One, too. I didn't think it was super quality wood, but it was actually much better looking after I took the white off and did the wood finish.

I’m more concerned about the spiders. Don’t they need a proper tank?

Proper tanks are bougie.

Mine is a kind of pine color with a white tile top. I usually have a tablecloth on it because one of the tiles is cracked. 

She's finally doing what she wants for herself. Getting married to the man of her dreams and having three beautiful children was just....an obligation? An onerous duty?

There is a name for this phenomenon, it's called "running out of storylines!"

Sorry, posted before I saw Pepper's comment!!

There is no way the production staff didn’t help Nicole find Mackmoooood. He had already been out there wandering the streets with a suitcase ONG enough for her to sober up and change out of her dress to the jaunty beret ensemble. Was I the only one who felt a bit uncomfortable watching her basically force him into her car?  I hope he sticks to his guns and leaves her ass. The gaslighting and manipulation from her was insane especially since cameras captured the reality of what she said to him with her friends there. 
 

Manuel and Ashley are both spoiled immature babies. I am guessing he hasn’t said much about his kids or introduced them because he really isn’t all that involved in their lives. The entire situation with his breakfast with a friend was like a late teen/early twenty something episode. He should have just said I want some alone time with my friend be back soon. And she sits there on her phone and just keeps saying “i am not speaking to you” over and over. And her line in the bar about being triggered and that why she yells? Give me a break. They are toxic grifters and may deserve each other. 
 

Sophie….i do feel bad for her if he is hiding a “ho phone”. Why would he be dumb enough to turn on its Bluetooth??!!
