itsadryheat July 20, 2017 Share July 20, 2017 To me, Ramona is becoming more deranged every season, (or I am losing my tolerance for watching really bad crap tv). She can't be playing a 'role", right? I used to enjoy "watching", not being in the company of, people with no filter. She is close to being Not entertaining. Even her controlled Love Connection appearance was like watching 15 min. of Bette Davis as Baby Jane. I'm feeling like she needs to stay away from people so she can't pass her emotional terror on to unsuspecting degrees of healthy people. How can she have people in her real life? I wonder who could tolerate her negative, obnoxious, self-serving "True Self" in person. What can possibly be her end game? 21 Link to comment

I am liking RHoNY so much better than the latest seasons of the other RH franchises. This episode made me laugh so hard. This franchise had a few episodes this season that have cracked me up. This season has been really really fun. Despite the never-ending Tom/Lu drama and Ramona's insufferable ass, I have found myself laughing and enjoying nearly every episode. There were a few years in the middle that almost lost me, but NY is doing it right again. 19 Link to comment

Not for a minute do I believe most of that nonsensical behavior is genuine. Bethenny's "quip" about the pointlessness of "throwing a deck chair off the QE2" is witty? Doesn't she mean the Titanic?? The QE2 is in dry dock in Dubai apparently, whereas Tite is at the bottom of the Atlantic, last I heard. There is no housewife who treats employees worse than Lydia Schiavello from Melbourne who made her housekeeper chauffer her around town, questioned if her housekeeper knew right from left, and gave directions to her housekeeper/chauffer like this '"ching ching" means right and "chong chong means left"' because the housekeeper is an Asian woman. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-3476012/Real-Housewife-Melbourne-Lydia-Schiavello-makes-racial-slur-Asian-housekeeper-teaser-upcoming-episode.html 10 Link to comment

Sweet-tea July 20, 2017 Share July 20, 2017 (edited) I could not believe how childish Ramona and Sonja were acting. I'm so glad Beth did not let them get away with that garbage. Ramona's behavior reminds me of my mother's, and she has Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Ramona is exhibiting several of the traits and has been since I started watching the show, although she seems worse now. Is it the booze? I've never seen Lu so out of her mind drunk.... falling not once but TWICE! Yikes! In one scene she could barely stand and was rocking back and forth.

StatisticalOutlier July 20, 2017 Share July 20, 2017 1 hour ago, HunterHunted said: The thing that saved LuAnn from really hurting herself is that she was so unbelievably drunk that she couldn't tense up as she was falling. One of my law school classmates was black out drunk. He was on the roof of his building. He pried open the elevator shaft and fell 11 stories. He landed on the elevator. He survived and has a slight limp. He was too drunk to react to falling. Being drunk saved his life. It sounds like it might have put his life in danger in the first place, though. Wouldn't need to survive an 11-story fall if you don't fall 11 stories in the first place because you pried open the doors to enter an elevator shaft. Then again, holy hell...11 stories? That's incredible. 1 hour ago, epc said: And for me, I have found Luann almost unbearable to watch over the last year, but the way she handled herself tonight actually endeared her to me again. You've heard the saying, that a drunk (wo)man's words are a sober (wo)man's thoughts? Well, maybe there is a humorous, affable genuine woman under that snooty veneer after all. Who would think being that drunk would lead to such redemption? Getting really drunk usually does not endear one to other people. I also noticed that when she and the manager(?) were walking together down a hallway toward her room, she told him, "Every room is a prize. Let me tell you, it's so gorgeous here." AND she was carrying her own bag. That's the Luann I like. And I hate Ramona but I loved her reaction after the not-in-the-bushes fall, showing Luann where she made her mistake in her routing. 19 Link to comment

notnowimbusy July 20, 2017 Share July 20, 2017 I had this episode on when I went to bed last night. I had to turn it off because of all the screeching. So, just watched, and had to pause it several times because Ramona & Sonja keep giving me a headache. WTF is wrong with Ramona? I would have thrown all her luggage and purse into the pool and told her to find a hotel. Then told Sonja to go with her. Bravo isn't paying any of them enough to have to put up with their constant selfishness and whining. Ramona may tip "the help" well, but I'm sure alcohol and mixer weren't the only things in the drinks they served to her. What a bitch. Watching LuAnn hammered was pretty darn fun. Tinsley - think about this. Are you sure Sonja is the person you want introducing you anywhere, let alone back into "society". Get out of Sonja's - now! And, immediately after that, take a look in the mirror - you are no longer 15. You are a grown woman, so stop with the girlie cutsie act. It's tiring. More Dorinda please.

Coworkers will accuse me of having a cough. For Christ's sake coughing once a day does not equal a cough. Other people are the worst. Also, people on their daily commute who are sick. Not everyone has the luxury of staying home from their job without repercussion or being fired. Also they could be commuting to their doctors for goodness sake!

I take care of me and honestly try to stay far away from sick people, wash my hands 5 million times a day but when some super sick coworker comes to work I get it. In one month I caught a horrible sinus infection from work as well as picked up pink eye because some jackhole came in and touched stuff and I must have touched my face. GRRRR!!!! edited to add: My sister got me some great face masks to keep in my purse in case I am surrounded by cooties. They are thick fabric. Yes I think they look silly but you gotta do what you gotta do! Edited July 20, 2017 by Natalie68 9 Link to comment

ButterQueen July 20, 2017 Share July 20, 2017 My husband is working late, and I'm on my 4th watch. I'm thinking of ordering pizza. ? Anyone notice how cool Ramona tried to act about Sonja's wrong number dick pic? She's really such a prude. Could Dorinda have gotten any farther away from Ramona in the car? 14 Link to comment
SCS July 20, 2017 Share July 20, 2017 2 hours ago, heatherchandler said: I have had this happen to me, sadly. It was not for a 20 plus hour flight but a flight to Hawaii. I changed my flight, I didn't want to fly sick anyway. I also didn't fly home from Miami once because I was throwing up from the flu. I waited 2 days to go home. I just think of babies or old people on the plane - what if I give them the flu? Thank you for doing that. And, semi-OT (passengers with share-able stuff), this father is pissed because Delta Airlines pulled his family off a flight after it was discovered his kid had head lice. Comments suggest readers side with Delta (I sure as hell do): https://www.outkickthecoverage.com/delta-pulled-family-off-planes-saturday/ 8 Link to comment
sasha206 July 20, 2017 Share July 20, 2017 Tinsley. "I"m in a place where I am just going to push forward..." as she recounts her 5th date that included flying to Miami. It's stuff like this that makes me think she's so desperate and *this* is why a woman with means stayed with an abuser. If anything you need to slow the fuck down. 16 Link to comment
