JakeyJokes July 22, 2017 Share July 22, 2017 If any RH show needed a quotes thread, it's this show. Tinsley: Mexico is home to 21 million people. Oh, these are such fun facts! Carole: It's sinking. *** Sonja: I thought we were going to have a Lifetime movie for a minute there. *** Bethenny: You've raised daughters! Would you want them to act like this? Sonja: Oh, my daughter would never act like us. 13 Link to comment

The way she's always ready to share her mugshot story, I think that deep down she really loves having her name in the press. She talks about that damned mugshot like it's a badge of honor.

athousandclowns July 22, 2017 Share July 22, 2017 7 hours ago, Pop Tart said: I was thinking about this and wondering about the cost. The website says you could have like 20 people at the villa, so if it's $20,000 a week and you got 20 friends or family to go then it'd be $1000 a person. Or if it's $40,000, then $2000 a person, still doable. I have a friend who has a woman's group that was able to rent a private island off the coast of Belize (I think). They were a large group so could really divvy up the price. So I'd love to know what the villa costs so I can start making my list of 20 travel companions. Pick me !! I have the $1,000 plus I need a plan B for my Kauai trip. I am able to arrive a couple hours early to find my room and have staff unload my 3 trunks. Keep me posted please. 13 Link to comment

If things fall through with the Coupon King, she’ll need one millionaire in her corner. The women tour the rooms and Ramona stirs the pot with Sonja. She says that Tinsley should have given Sonja the nice room and Sonja confronts her. Sonja: I let you stay in my house! Tinsley: Mexico has safer tap water than your house! 18 Link to comment

Yes Ramona this is high school. What you were doing over the room situation was pre-school. Ramona to the table trying to explain away what she said to Tinsley mother: I never said you were not considerate. I said that Sonja was feeling not good about it. I sharing her feelings.

But I don't get why she shouldn't be upset about the story. Who wouldn't be pissed to find out your supposed friend was going around telling people you are a shitty houseguest? It would be piss me off, and I thing most anyone I have ever met. I think Tinsley has been effectively gone from Sonja's pre-Vermont.I am still trying to figure out what Tinsley was suppose to grateful for? The room with musty stuffed animals, a hostess that imposes "rules" on guest, non-potable ice and most likely water, being instructed to lift packets of sweetener, not being able to have packages delivered. I saw it more as almost a Survivor challenge for Tinsley tenure on the show and payday for Sonja. Yes, Tinsley should be appreciative of the basic shelter provided but I do think she is being real-it is more of a filming location. I am guessing, and I doubt the fourth wall will allow it, that Tinsley did not stay with Sonja for five or even three months. She may have stored some excess wardrobe but I doubt she was around when the cameras were down. Sonja had to have noticed that Tinsley was gone for five days right before the Mexico trip. One blogger is reporting Tinsley had a hotel room while "staying" with Sonja. My guess is she spent some time at Sonja's but for the most part if they weren't filming she stayed clear. As a group they did go to the Hamptons, the Berkshires and Vermont. I am guessing while Sonja was in Thailand, Tinsley didn't stay in her home. Sonja wanted the story of Tinsley to be about a beaten down Tinsley being brought back to life and love by Sonja Morgan. I don't think Sonja would be capable of introducing Tinsley to anyone without first putting her mark on him. It had to have been a big burn to Sonja that Carole was able to introduce Tinsley to someone she clicked with. It was interesting to me Page Six was running the fruitless search for love story when Tinsley had just returned from a vacation with a guy-she is still dating. 4 hours ago, WireWrap said: Tinsley talking about her mug shot is her controlling her narrative, dealing with bad press straight on herself, someone calling her "ungrateful" to the press/major gossip column is adding onto the bad press she is fighting. I think Tinsley handles it wisely as she got in front of the story from the onset. Anytime Sonja had time to spend with Tinsley in the group she opted to spend time instead with Ramona. The only time Ramona wasn't around was in the Bronx when Dorinda went off on Sonja and Tinsley was on the sidelines laughing with Carole and Bethenny. I believe Sonja was upset because Tinsley was able to step pretty effortlessly right back into NY society. Tinsley has photos up on Instagram of her various events she attended. Even one with Carole. No need for Sonja, who I don't believe is willing to invest the money or is really welcome. Edited July 22, 2017 by zoeysmom 19 Link to comment

Standard middle class upbringing in the USA, but when they were in a position to hire live in help, their behavior was deplorable. For many the favorite topic of conversation when meeting with other wives was how terrible and inept their maids (whose duties included cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the children) were, yet they had no problems leaving their children with those same women while they took vacations out of the country. Many wives really talked down to their maids and were very demanding. They didn't pay them extravagantly either. The expat wives would justify their behavior by saying how much better the maids had it with them than with the locals, because they at least gave them Sunday afternoons off. I was looked at as an oddball because I chose to live like I always had and do things for myself. I think Ramona is a good example of nouveau riche with a sense of entitlement, acting out in a way that's all about the privileges of wealth with no sense of noblesse oblige. In her world she's probably surrounded by other's like herself. Sonja doesn't seem much better in my opinion. Interns, indeed! OY. This was Sri Lanka all over the place (for me).

She's physically active and is in better physical shape than probably most of us. She looks great, especially for her age. So yeah, Lu got drunk while on vacation. It can happen. She was in Mexico and drinking tequila, which she said she doesn't really drink. Tequila is a mean alcohol. I've only drank it once and will never drink it again. Could she have hurt herself? Yes.

I agree about the blog-why bother? Ramona is without any redeeming qualities. Luann has loosened up a bit while imbibing but she is rarely slurring her words, or over reacting because she is drunk. Not everyone has that Sonja quality of showing her ass when she drinks. I found this story this evening- http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/fears-of-tainted-alcohol-at-mexican-resorts-after-deaths/ar-AAoBUic?li=BBmkt5R&ocid=spartanntp I know they aren't staying in a Mexican resort but it does beg the question-are these fools being over served? Granted the cast is use to drinking the Skinnygirl swill which has a very low alcohol count, so maybe they are getting far more than they bargained for. I know you can put a lot of alcohol in any kind of sugary/fruity drink and it is hard to detect and can catch up with one in a hurry. 6 Link to comment

She was in Mexico and drinking tequila, which she said she doesn't really drink. Tequila is a mean alcohol. I've only drank it once and will never drink it again. I don't think I've ever heard anyone describe another person as "being able to hold their liquor" when the person had only enjoyed a glass or two of wine with dinner. In my experience, it is something that is only said when you are talking about someone drinking a lot. And I don't think you say that about a person based on only one time seeing them drink, either. There is a reason Luann has the reputation she has with respect to drinking, and I doubt it the result of a few vacation mishaps or imbibing a particular kind of alcohol. The woman likes her libations. I should think that would be pretty clear at this point. Quote As for the smoking. Well, she does smoke. And yeah, smoking isn't good for you. But none of us knows how often she does it. W True, we don't know how much she smokes. She may smoke a couple of packs a day or only a few butts a week.

Comparing getting so plastered you can't care for yourself to making an informed choice to go skiing doesn't hold water for me. Luann wasn't taking a reasoned risk ... she just got really, really drunk. Let's not try to make it out to be something other than what it was. Quote She had a 'night'. No one, including her, got hurt. Maybe a little bruised. To me, personally, it isn't only about whether Lu did or didn't get hurt ... she just made a complete fool of herself. Sitting at the table doing her Foster Brooks impersonation, to staggering around falling not once but twice and having to be helped to her room by the villa employees. It was shameful. I was embarrassed for her the same way I have been embarrassed for Sonja or any of these other Ho's when they get plowed and stumble around like Otis Campbell. I doubt Luann herself takes much solace in the fact that she didn't get hurt or only escaped with only a few bruises. It must be really humiliating for Countess Fancy Pants to be seen like that on TV by the whole world. Oh, she'll never admit to it of course. But I bet Luann would give anything to have just stayed in bed the way Dorinda did that night and not made such a spectacle of herself the way she did. 5 Link to comment

Chit Chat July 23, 2017 Share July 23, 2017 (edited) Quote "It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues." :) I would say the opposite is true when it comes to the Housewives franchise. I don't find that falling down drunk, getting into drunken fights, showing one's snatch on TV, and screaming obscenities at each other on a routine basis would qualify as a virtuous lifestyle. YMMV. I don't mean to sound judgmental, it's just that these women take partying to a whole new embarrassing level. Again, money truly can't buy you class.

She knows her age and lives a fine, healthy life. Ask her liver. Her voice doesn't exactly sound healthy either, ala cigarets. 1 Link to comment

Quote It must be really humiliating for Countess Fancy Pants to be seen like that on TV by the whole world. But I bet Luann would give anything to have just stayed in bed the way Dorinda did that night and not made such a spectacle of herself the way she did. I don't think she feels humiliated or ashamed -- if anything, she's embracing the moment: Edited July 23, 2017 by film noire 22 Link to comment

I don't think she regrets what happened -- if anything, she's embracing the moment: Regardless of her alcohol intake Luann did have the decency to thank an ailing hostess for her efforts in making the trip possible. Even her moments with Sonja and the rapidly downward spiraling Page Six discussion she did what was best and excused herself. Dorinda on the other hand was too drunk to show up for work dinner. IIRC wasn't this billed as essentially a drinking excursion? Had Luann been inured, I might have felt differently about her post dinner behavior, but she seemed to bounce back and get an escort to her room. It will interesting to see Wednesday how she handles the aftermath. Nothing worse than having someone on a trip who drops out of the day's activities because they are hungover. Luann so far hasn't made blamed anyone else for her drunkenness, nor she get nasty with anyone. RHONY does have the reputation for being the heaviest drinking cast-they don't seem to be in immediate danger of losing that title anytime soon. 13 Link to comment

And unlike Sonja (always flashing her crotch like a "You are here" mall sign) Luann made for a swellegant drunk. 14 Link to comment

She didn't expound on anything, give any behind the scenes info, or attempt to defend herself. It was two paragraphs of blah blah blah. She doesn't cop to anything. She even says she would have been fine sleeping on a lawn chair. No, honey, that was Dorinda with the gracious talking head saying she would sleep on the lawn. I wish Dorinda and Carole blogged more often as theirs always go a bit deeper. Luann had a good comment about Carole a few weeks ago, saying she wouldn't have her eating habits judged by a woman who lives off candy and potato chips. 3 Link to comment

Did she have too much tequila, yeah... We didn't call it "tekilla" in my younger days. Lu is an adult and On vacation, she didn't break any laws. All the housewives are grown women, and I'm sure we who watch these shows are adults and aren't getting behavior and drinking ideas from these women. while room Gate was annoying. And Ramona disgusted me with her treatment of the staff. Over all it was just a bit of a laugh episode... And I enjoy that, they seem so rare anymore. 16 Link to comment

Ramona was just so bad one has to search to find anyone who is her equal in bad behavior or is even in the same ballpark. It was almost like Satan versus a Girl Scout troop, who didn't have a chaperone. I would prefer to see falling down drunken antics to a RH recklessly driving a dune buggy and flipping it. 13 Link to comment
