    WOOOOFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  2. Ewww...Bunion? Just *SMH* Definitely glad you went on to something better. I am definitely finding the new job more rewarding and the bonus of being able to have a social life again while still working a lot. Still learning who to get wiggle to learn new things. And oooh!!! I didn't even think of that angle!!! That LeeAnne might be projecting onto Kary due to her lost friendship with D'Andra. That's just ANOTHER layer to the LeeAnne/D'Andra drama making it even more complex. And Yes, in hindsight you are right about Eva, too. Eva the Diva would have read Marlo for filth. And I think someone maybe Kandi said in an interview that as the season goes on that Eva was going to be doing a lot of backpedaling on things she said that will put her in a poor light. I am going to need Eva to when she said she would stand in her truth that she STAND IN HER TRUTH. And three for three!!! Old Marlo would have just been a good minion to Nene. This season (starting late) Marlo has been standing up for herself. And slooooowwwwlly she has been revealing stuff about herself. And goodness knows this show needs a voice of reason. And as a part New Yorker, I lived for her suit in Central Park. After two many seasons where I felt like she had lost her fashion touch (and the same for Nene), I admit that I like they both seem to be finally stepping up their fashion game a la Season 4 and 5 again. I saw that a few days ago. Shocked. Love Shiva to a younger hotter man and now this? WOW.

    They really do....which is why SoapSuds need to back off. MINE. 😛
  4. It's the new people, didn't you hear? And I guess Bravo wanted to be shady or someone said the other promo wasn't dramatic enough ( I loved it) so here's the OFFICIAL one...
  5. BH So from what I can tell...the conflict is.. DENISE (with backup from GARCELLE) vs the HAGS Well, I hope Garcelle can read. That said meh. CAMILLE RETURNS. I am curious to see what they gave her to come back. Or maybe she will spill everyone's tea even if most of the lawsuits are over, ERIKA V SUTTON Well, Erika was getting rusty and could use someone who might know how to verbally fight. Other than that...meh for me. Unless it goes the way of the Lipsa behind the scene takedown of Kyle theory I posted many pages back, I feel not much. NJ I have only seen it in bits and pieces this season due to work but... MARGE...I feel like she is getting a bad edit like LeeAnne over on DALLAS. To me she is not half as fun as she used to me. feel like something is going on behind the scenes. JENNIFER. I stay stanning Jennifer. Sorry, not sorry. She ain't perfect, but I don't need her to be. MELISSA. UH...lol. I got nothing. JACKIE. Ugh. Tryhard. And Teresa is already coming for her. DELORES. Mmmm...Frankie. lol. If it wasn't for next week's promo, I would have nothing to say. Jackie is messing with the wrong one though thinking she is the weak one. TERESA. No more Namasete is right. And I am actually here for it. Given everything that went done, her fault though it is, she was overdue to show her claws again. So...go at it.
  6. First of all, my apologies. I knew I liked the episode and hated what they did. However I did not know how triggered the whole thing was with Kary and LeeAnne until I was at work talking about it and I WENT OFF. Recently I left the company/job I had for eight years. While there are several reasons for why I did one of the major was was a co-worker who only being there a few months that I was training was being very Kary in his interaction, was trying to isolate me, threaten me (and like LeeAnne I to have a temper when pushed but maturity has given a shall we say higher tolerance, but when it explodes like LeeAnne it is dangerous...except I have fists, not hands), and even though I had seniority and repeated the incidents, it was the incident where I confronted him on what appeared to be racist versus being a team player and trusting the one who has been the backbone for everybody there that showed me how undervalued I was to my management (not helped by an inefficient general manager with a HR sheet that is constantly swept under the rug but that's another story). When HR did NOTHING after a 17 page fax that I sent over why I felt as a gay black man that I was in danger for my life, they not only gave this co-worker who is half-a$$ed in his job (and I have the pictures to prove it since I opened behind him) more hours, but they put him in charge of training. And seeing people I trained versus people he trained...well, it is clear he is not ready for that. As one of two trainers, I had never felt so disrespected. Worse, that harrassment kept going on from this 'Kary.' So knowing I was about to lose my cool and put my fist through his face, and that a lot of my good co-workers were leaving, and that life is short and I have a great work ethic, I reduced my hours and worked until I found an another job. Slowly everyone saw how much I really did behind the scenes to make sure work was efficiently done, but I am not the popular person. I am at work TO WORK with a work ethic from the 80s of a family who grew up poor and had to work for EVERYTHING they got. That also means that as an adult I can be straightforward when I have to, silent when I need to be, use foresight pretty well, and when everyone run around like crazy grace under pressure and telling people what to do for efficient service...a 'yes' man with his own mind...something that made some I learned felt threatened by my skin color or who I slept with...which is irrelevant to work IMO, I also come from rave culture where we embrace all people. So if this was the work environment being fostered where someone who if not racist in the incidents we are involved in than even worse homophobic...I wanted none of that bad energy. So...I left. Mostly low key. Highlight...using my seniority when GM tried to do the 'miss up last week schedule' test. So if I ever wanted to go back to the company I can and even better ANYWHERE in the world. Apologies for the rant, but that is also why I am holding out until next week episode. I feel like you do in that last paragraph as well as what someone said on Twitter that night. It is not so much that LeeAnne hates Mexican and is racist. It's more that she hates Kary. And the whole Mexican comments is aimed at her because it is low hanging fruit that she knows will get off Kary's nerves. Of course, I could be wrong, but I do feel she is being ignorant. She ain't NJ's Teresa where she would lose in a 'war of words' but she has not formed the right words yet for this situation, My bad. She did. At the dinner table. When she called Kary out on what she was doing and doing what grown ups do when they meet someone who they do not like. She said she did not like her. Point blank. Full stop. That I can back her on. Kary is transparent. And is doing the very alpha thing that LeeAnne said in her TH. And we all know LeeAnne won't go down without a fight. So should be interesting either way. RHOA Since my internet is doing good...and so much has been showing RH wise...bullet points... And this season for me...the magic is back. Or is it the Kenya? lol, If last season was a transition season...it is back on form with a good slow burn. And we are nowhere near the Toronto episodes yet...or the cast trip. PORSHA. dayyyyyyyummmmmmmmmm. She had me in my feels from Episode 1. You could feel her pain and see it like soap opera actress who truly play sick when they are in hospital scenes. I am sad since we know how this will end. She deserves better, but I am enjoying her. KENYA. Hollered that she got first frame. That said...feeling everything about her, too. Glad to have her back. NENE. Shades of Season 8 Nene with the subtle manipulating. But her hair game has been on point this season. EVA. Am I see Eva the Diva again? CNYTHINA. Glad to see her with that Season 7 fire. But I am curious to see if she is 'the snake?' KANDI. Queen. I live for her friendship with Kenya. Who knew? Think it's funny that after seasons of them being single and people wanting them to act like housewives that now that most of them are married with kids some fans are still complaining.

    LOL!!! Yeah...I admit to be pleasantly surprised when I saw his pictures. Anyone who can bring out my inner wolf is worth a look see trip.
  8. Taoboi replied to YRBB's topic in Off Topic Lounge
    Mmmm...that bubble.
  9. DALLAS They knew what they were doing. They're trash. And the fact that this Mean Girl S**^ is over LeeAnne telling Kary to mind a culture that she supposedly knew about from the THREE visits she already taken and knew and was STILL going to go into a church with a hat on. LeeAnne's ignorant is because she does not know better at times especially when heated. You are willingly ignorant with no sign of wanting to do better (something LeeAnne at least attempts at times) and that for me, Kary, makes you not only stupid yourself, but a basic bitca. Happy the other girls stood up for LeeAnne. I can stan for a Brandi who is the voice of reason that's for sure. D'Andra...you cancelled, girl. Any bridges you made to get LeeAnne back as a friend just went up in smoke over your transparent 'joke.' And loved that Brandi called it like she saw it. And to think...the Thailand trip was going so well. Those two must have ready hated that LeeAnne, Stephanie, Brandi, and Kameron were all getting along for most of the episode, making it a fun one. Just...ugh.
  10. I thought that was a random interview when I saw it yesterday. Good.
  11. AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! COUNTESS!!!! GREAT PIC. And LOVE your report. Love you, boo, but I mention other than tayshanna that Twitter dropped this tea about returning BH housewives. Even Adrienne ahas been mentioned to cameo. I'm sure the season is boring but this might be because it's the 10th season and they want to do their coup like ATL did with Wig and Nene (with Lisa wu cameo) for Season 10. Still waiting on Tayshanna. Well, Candiace did tell her to drag her. Still...time for them to come on back now.
  12. I should have known if anyone would do it since I couldn't it would be you. LOVE. After the years of us discussing...FINALLY...NEW BLOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So any early predictions...?
  13. Ewww. But I will say this much...I have not been feeling OC since the first few episodes, but those last ten minutes was EVERYTHING. I just hope Tamra doesn't worm her way out of it. It seems like going by Twitter that only Taylor is the only OG who isn't coming back or making a cameo in the upcoming season. I could be wrong. Cuz Kim, Brandi, and Adirenne have all been mentioned as returning. And yay for Camille. GET THAT PAYBACK!!!
  14. Well, Andy needs to GET THE FRAK OVER IT!!!! If his favorite wasn't such a hateful waif then he would need Keyonce to come and save HIS show. Because he should be busy with his own child, not trying to influence a show.
  15. Oh, I believe it. re: LeeAnne and D'Andra.The dissoluting of their friendship was much too real during Season 3 to be fake. And that was a clear arc that was engrossing from beginning to end last season. I think there was a time they could have resolved it, but now probably not. Too much bad blood...especially if what LeeAnne said that season was true...D'Andra wants to be the Queen Bee and sadly, that is not her. That said, I do wonder if LeeAnne P.O.ed someone for a bad edit. Right down to that new midseason trailer, it is like someone wants her to be seen in a bad light. Which is easy to do this season it seems. I definitely miss LeeAnne with her bowl. She redeemed herself so well. And it feels like it's just down the drain or the show has gone to her head. Which I can understand if it's true that she was the one to get the show renewed this year. But still...smh.
  16. DALLAS That haunted house thing was so random...moreso since MARRIED TO MEDICINE just did that as well. That said... LEEANNE. I agree with Cat that it seems like they want to give her a bad edit for some reason. That said, Kary was too transparent. And IT'S LEEANNE'S WEDDING!!! She can have whomever she wants there for it. And if D'Andra wanted to be a part of it, she would have a sit-down (off camera would be best, but for the narrative on camera) with LeeAnne and said that regardless of what went down, she had known LeeAnne for a long time and it felt odd that she was not in her best friend's wedding. Then...the chips would fall where they may. But...here's the thing...HAS D'ANDRA DONE THIS? No, she has not. She has her own mouth and does not need Kary. This is just Kary trying to be relevant when she needs to have several seats. BRANDI. Seems like old her is trying to come back. Let's hope not. KARY. Girl, you transparent. And you are trying too hard. Shut up. STEPHANIE. She is really backing the right horse when she should continue to be her own person and stay out of the Brandi/Kameron drama. KAMERON. I guess I am Team Kameron, but I am sadden she and Stephanie are on the outs though I understand why. KARY. I see you. Girl, bye. Starting to feel the season has stalled. Is it just me?
  17. POTOMAC Hmmm...seems like something physical did go down. Hopefully no one will try to edit it down. Oh, and Gizelle/Robyn/Ash were there. OC So...I guess I should skip the episode then? lol.
  18. Oooooooo...lord!!!!!!!!!! lol. Sounds like going by what people are saying about Candaice's Twitter it might be true.
  19. Taoboi replied to YRBB's topic in Off Topic Lounge
    After a day of unexpected off-work-today-ness and too much resume sending...MUCH needed.
  20. OC It has been hit or miss from what I can. I agree with whoever said the last episode was so filler. EMILY. I hate to say this, but right now she's the only person I have seen that I'm relating to this season. I've always liked Emily though. And it was nice to see Shane not be a prick as the two of them were helping Gina. The fact that Gina does not see how much of a friend Emily is being is just sad. GINA *cough*secondseasoncurse*cough* SHANNON. She was doing so well there being happy and all. And then this trip happened. Now she's back to Shanloon and that is also sad. And it looks like her friendship with Kelly is going to crash and burn. TAMRA. *crosses fingers people see how much she is pot stirring and call her out on it* BRAUWYN. Nonfactor. Sorry. Had a good start, but I feel nothing now. KELLY. See? Like RHOP's Ashley, Kelly really did need something to redeem her because she's been awful so far this season. So her going to see her mama makes sense. Unlike RHOP Ashley, while slightly dull on one hand, on the other hand it really did not come across as contrived at all. At least not to me. Maybe it's like how well-written soaps used their history to boost current storyline, but we saw Kelly's mother and brother back when she first joined the show. We heard mentions over the years. So her going to see how Mom is was organic because well...we know them and like relatives you want to get a catchup session. Did that make sense? It was a nice calm before the storm with her. And we know a storm is coming. VIKI. Her and the fast food...was a hoot.
  21. London, you came around the right time. A lot of people here just got into it as Season 2 was just premiering. So right place, right time. Yes, it was awesome. And I kinda did that Prof X vibe.
  22. DALLAS LEEANNE. Well, she continues to make it hard to defend her during that Mexico trip. However I still like her. And still like at that argument with Brandi when she's says 'when's my period?' I liked her circus wedding shower. It was nice to see her having fun. I too was tired of the arguing. BRANDI. I am shocked to admit it, but she's been mostly good so far this year and has been the voice of reason a few times. I still am on Kameron's side during their fight. However, I understand where she was coming from. However, she did start that so she can't just play victim. KAMERON. I would be over going in circles, too, girl. I feel you. There was no need to attack her at a shower. That takes away from the shower. And even I was like REALLY, STEPHANIE? That could have been done later. STEHPANIE. I still like you, but giiiiiiiiiirl. LOL!!! I did like Travis (yum)'s advice to her. But when all is said and done, she did jump on Brandi's side when that fight broke out. And it was more about Brandi's hurt feelings and nothing to do with her. She should have left it like that. Or better yet, she should have talked about how she felt hurt by what Kameron said about no one wanting to get to know her when Stephanie had been doing all of that this season. That's why those two are really having drama now. This could be clear up if they talked about the real issue. Not being messy. CARY. Yay!!! Cameo. KARY. She were getting me on your side. Then you made that messy comment about lingerie in the afternoon. Sit down as if you haven't been naughty in your TH. A'NDRA. Good that she finally had the talk with Travis. Good on her for putting on her big girl pants. Hopefully it sticks. Overall, a solid episode. RHOA So I didn't get a chance to read the article a few pages back about the Kenya/Marc breakup. But it seems he really has five kids, not three like Kenya thought and that's when she went off?
  23. I think (at the moment at least) Dorit and Erika have 3 lawsuits each. And I have to admit I have enjoyed Nico taking Dorit and PK for all they are worth and would love to see it manifest on the show as karma for how they treated LVP, but alas. Well...I've been here working all day with good internet and needed a break so I wanted to do some catch up post...so with that in mind... RHOP Late to the party as well, but I did like PART 3. In fact, that has to be one of my favorite reunion. I agree with @Cat that given that 'commercial break' moment where Ashley told Michael that she was still mac'ed...that comes across as damning in terms of what she does and does not know. But hasn't Ashley been like that all season, like how she used her father storyline to deflect from what was going on with Michael? JS. KAREN. Honestly, I feel she was the MVP of this last part. Her expressions and looks said EVERYTHING. And since she was the only person to have a unique perspective due to her past that they all knew about, of course Michael would try to shut her down. But whatever Michael. lol. She did it all with her grace and style that she was awesome. And look!!! Ashley trying to come for her and pull a Nene (overtalking her to get her to shut up), but Karen STILL GOT THE LAST WORD. I have liked her always, but she was a great season for her. MONIQUE. Hmmm. Still like her and Chris. And her post pregnancy glow, but perhaps she was a little too messy. I liked that while she said that last part was her uncle, she didn't acknowledge the first part of that video was not. Or not that I recall, but it has been a while since I watched it. Also had a good season and probably the only one that will film with Ashley next season starting out. CANDIACE. THANK YOUR HUSBAND!!!! He spilled all that tea. And still Michael tried to gaslight you and him. SMH. Other than standing up for herself though. She didn't do much. Curious to see if she will still have that heel to Ashley's neck next season. ROBYN. Thank you for all that tea as well. GIZELLE. The voice of reason during the last part of that gaslighting. Who would have thought? And that was creepy how MIchael tried to come for her. They got you on film. We talked about that back in Season 1. Too late to check it now. ASHLEY. Trash. I said it. At least be like RHoV Christina and own you're a golddigger. A man's career got ruined because your man can't keep his hands to himself and you want to say here and act like Karen and Gizelle's words to that effect mean nothing. Well, frak you then. Then trying to deflect, deflect, deflect and then no one saw that. All I could think was THIS... JUST...NO. However good reunion. It will be interesting to see how the next season goes...especially since Michael just got caught up in another scandal last week.
  24. THIS.
  25. LOL!!!! I have to admit that last night's episode was the first time I felt the girls were being toxic...which isn't a good look on this show that has manage to not be that for YEARS versus the Housewives show. Troubling. Yeah...she has her moments, but I felt she was doing the most on this episode and last week's. After these two, I could see why she was friends with Josefine. ETA: And oooooo, Daddy did not like Heavenly being secretive. That was the first time I've seen them at odds with each other and you FELT IT!!! Trouble in the marriage?
