I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I thought Heidi's blunt "It's your fault, Ven" would make some kind of impression, but I guess not. Wow. And he really is a one way monkey.
I think I just had too much TV to consider Face Off last season, but I am in for this one. I do wish the episodes weren't an hour and half long

I love the way that he tweeted three times that the pairings weren't random and being paired with her was a deliberate attempt to bring him down. If he were a real designer, he would have risen to the challenge.

Or acknowledged that it was a difficult challenge and that he hopes to grow in the future.
BTW, this is not the first season of Project Runway. Why he wasn't prepared for any number of unusual challenges is beyond me. No excuses.

Yes! There is a "real woman" challenge EVERY DAMNED SEASON. He should have been prepared.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
Is it wrong that the goth in me loves loves loves that Amelia got to dance to both The Cure and The Creatures? Yeah, I kinda love that. Makes me wonder how/when music selection occurs...or if it's just a really bizarre coincidence that (so far) all the music by seminal goth musicians has been performed by the only female dancer who clearly doesn't visit a tanning booth.
Also, I'm totally prejudiced towards Eliana because she reminds me of my favorite cousin. I still can't always differentiate btwn the 2 blond ballroom girls.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Aside from gross Ven and his poor client, I kind of like the fact that Heidi reps for the fact that models are real women, too.
Also, and I know this has been said, how on earth do these people think they are going to have a career if they can only make clothes for sizes 00 to 4??

He doesn't feel awful. He's just bucking for fan favorite. Which he was never going to win.
