S07.E18: Mercedes' Story LIVE CHAT

[Guest]

How does one not "find time" to write a letter on a tissue? Jesus. You'd only get three words on it before it ripped to pieces anyway.

[Wanda]

Giant pancakes are protein?

[dreadfulLeigh]

Omg her nutrition knowledge is...I’m dead. 

[String Theory]

Fifty pieces of turkey bacon is an improvement???????

[dreadfulLeigh]

Oof, that’s a lot of onions for first thing in the morning. 

[mmecorday]

Turkey bacon, fried onions and pancakes?

Hi pounders— I’m late to the party due to a happy hour event. (I had some Chardonnay + fish tacos 😋)

I’ve been DYING to connect with guys all week. My coworker revealed the CRAZIEST news.... her sister was working in healthcare in Houston recently and went out on a few dates with Dr Now!!!!! She met him through a dating website. I don’t have a lot of details, but she did share photos!!! Can you believe it???

What website? I'll move to Houston!

[Splashes]

Focusing on high protien options... procedes to cook pancakes.

[umgoblue]

Can't do the homework...

But if you eat 10 slices of turkey bacon...yeah, right...

My plan is to....

Always the plan, never the execution.  SMH

[Midnightblue]

Did Mercedes just say "This last munt"?

[dreadfulLeigh]

Wait! Hold up! Is her lip stud a fucking eyeball!? Did anyone else see that??

"No Little Person like to be picked up by an adult."

Yeah? Tell that to my 4'9" best friend who still demands I pick her up and give her spinnies when we're trashed together (I'm 5'10").

Omg, I am laughing so hard and also wishing I could have drinks with you two, lol. Spinnies! LMFO

I wondered if she has Vicks Vaporub under her nose. It's the best smell-masking trick ever.

Are you Buffalo Bill??

[Caoimhe]

Another poundticipant who refuses to understand any nutritional guidance that would deprive her of her desired type / quantity of food.

[Splashes]

That was a lot more than 400-500 kcal

[String Theory]

Why do I get the feeling Dr.  Now isn't going to be too impressed..............

Haven't done any of Lola's homework...........right......

Oh dead god. Enough with the letters!

And now we're writing one on toilet paper to flush down the toilet. Is daddy buried in the septic tank?

ETA: Sorry. The letter will be written on a "tissue." Which seems...sorta not even possible.

I can only hope daddy's child rapist corpse is rotting in a septic tank.  I would have been happy if they out him there when he was alive. 

[poeticlicensed]

Mercedes doesn't deserve her family.

[umgoblue]

Reading is fundamental, but why does she have to read this to her daughter?

[Wanda]

I think I’m out until the where are they now episodes start. They’ve picked the absolute worst poundticipants these last 2 years,

I wish I had a tissue to wipe up all the tea you've spilled here but I wrote a letter to my dead dad on the last one I had. 

[Pepper Mostly]

@CircusPeanuts, this is the single greatest thing I've heard this year. I just hope he's a nice guy and a good date! 

[DEG9]

One thing you can see - she does love her children, and vice-versa. But not, apparently, enough to really do what needs to be done.

She is killing me talking about good her diet is going while eating all that food. lol

We still require adult supervision in our mid-30s. 

[iwasish]

I hope Khloe Kardashian is watching and stops putting those damn turbans on her kids head. Not so cute at 37. 

[Wanda]

Feeling safe to say no surgery for you

[dreadfulLeigh]

She’s living in Houston now and is still missing months? 😒

[xls]

she probably gained 30

[SunnyBeBe]

Someone must intervene and get those kids out of that servants role and in proper home environment. Isn't Lola a mandated reporter of child neglect? 

[Gbb]

Complete and utter denial. 

[Brooklynista]

I really need someone to rebraid the daughter's hair. No reason for all of these adults to be around her and not a one of them is tending to her.

[Splashes]

Why do they all hunch over like that pushing the wheelchair?

Mid 40s and samesies, heh.

No one is judging dad for sexually abusing his daughter? Really? Guess I'm nobody, because I would love to track down his rotting corpse, dig it up and throw it off a cliff into a raging bonfire, then take the bones and ground them up into fertilizer.

But that's just me, I guess. heh

Nope, it's not just you DEG9. 

Here's how I fantasize about daddy scumbag's first moments in Hell:

[Viqutorious]

Delusional

[Callaphera]

6:48 pm, 12 minutes to go. 

She's totally got this, guys!

Ask if he gives the side eye to what she orders at dinner.

At least 30.

Spill! 

I cant even imagine Dr. Now on a date. The thought makes me giggle.

Yeah, but did you wipe your butt and flush it down the toilet?!?!?! 

Inquiring minds want to know....

Not neglect.  They have food, clothing and shelter.  What a sad criteria, but it is what it is.

Silence of the Lambs reference- the FBI agents put Vicks under their noses while examining a long-dead body.

[String Theory]

Pack her up and back to Cincinnati with her.  She can gorge herself to death on Skyline Chili and Graeter's Ice Cream.....

[Twopper]

I am glad she is moving around more, but I doubt she has lost much.  I think it was Octavia who had an aide that did the cooking for her and that was what finally got her to meet her goal.   I usually like pancakes, but I think watching her cook them has made me swear off them for at least a month.   I can't stand turkey bacon.

Silence of the Lambs. The bad guy has been given the nickname Buffalo Bill because "he skins his humps". When one of his victims is fished out of the river, Jodie Foster's character and her fellow FBI agents wipe some Vicks under their noses before they examine the very decomposing body.

[sainte-chapelle]

Boo I missed it...what hospital schedules an MRI at 8pm sheesh....I'm fine it's just routine at this point 🙂

Toilet? Look at you and your fancy fixtures! It's in my Tupperware container on the floor next to my bed.
