I'm for Bonnie, although I don't think she'll win. Rock's an ass. Jen pissed me off last week when she was so bitchy to Bonnie for no reason, and then she turned around and questions was Rock was being nasty for no reason this week and I was like ?????

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In random reality TV news, I offhandedly mentioned Big Brother at work yesterday, and my boss had never heard of it. I don't care if you don't watch it, but it's been on three nights a week for eight summers!

I don't have a horse in the HK race either. Now, I'll just watch to see if the spoilery thing I read was real or a foiler.

I think it'll be Jen. Bonnie's just too eratic. Rock has the misfortune of being the last man standing on a decidedly underwhelming men's team, and I think that'll count against him as much as his temper does. For all his talk, he's been solid but not stellar - same as Jen.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

SYTYCD: I think part of the reason that people aren't standing out is just that there were too many people to keep track of. Until about the top fourteen, I was identifying people by their hair and attitudes, not their name. Now that we're at the top ten, and stuff is going to get a little more challenging, I think people might stand out more. I do like that there doesn't seem to be any particular rivalry between the dancers--everyone seems to get along well enough.

I only notice Lauren because I hate her now.

Agreed. Or at least strongly dislike. I think she's probably too young for this, really.

It was the pretending to be Asian that pissed me off.

That was ridiculous. I really wonder why they chose to show that.

No shit. I am so done with her.

HK: I am rooting for Rock (by default) because I hate Bonnie, and Jen is garbage woman.
