Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

"Amber has a third grade vocabulary"

Except that my soon-to-be second grader knew what most of those words meant.

Art Crawl!!!

Design Star:

black, white, red and lavendar ??!!!??

That was the first v. wrong thing. And I cannot believe that Robb is still in it and Sparkle!Josh is gone.

And Will!!! In the bottom two. Just wrong.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Robb made an enemy of Will with that move.

Robb is an idiot and should have been eliminated for creating the ugly design that that taste-free couple chose. (That would be an interesting twist.)

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

seriously. that couple was absolutely taste-free, no? But who else could they have gotten who would have trusted their wedding to "Top Design?"

What I wanted to know was if Robb thought he was going to be able to get lavendar and white poker chips or if he knew he couldn't and just drew them that way so that they'd pick his design.

Denise - I would guess b.

Because his drawing was so not tied to reality: he didn't have it to scale either. I think he's lucky that he had a good team to work with.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I'm not a fan of watching people who are suffering from extreme sleep deprivation. The show needs to put in a one day break or something.

Oh yeah. Plus - unfair to the tasteless couple to have people who may be hallucinating designing their wedding reception room.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

sumi - or maybe it was fair to them. They needed people who were hallucinating to design to their specs...
