"We have trust issues." Mylar

Candice Glover. Ugh. That is all. I am making ugly stank face along with the Dawg at how amazing her performance was. I enjoy the Adele cover of Love Song, but Candice just put her thang down, flipped it and reversed it. No one should ever sing that song again but her and that includes Robert Smith. She slayed it. Done.

Almost makes Mariah's inane rambling and Nikki in so much leopard print (seriously, sooooo much leopard print) and putting up with Sanjaya's more annoying, less appealing heir Lazaro all season long, and of course anything Randy related worth it. Almost.

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

The AV Club commenters are totally piggish with their lust after Andrea (Survivor). Just ick.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I caught a rebroadcast of the ANTM college edition. Now the season was promoted as being all college students ... but (1) they seem even more immature than the usual run of aspiring models and (2) one contestant is a student at Aveda Institute and another at Liberty University Online ... which is the virtual version of Jerry Falwell's Liberty University (formerly Liberty Baptist College).

WOW, Project Runway. Unbelievable. I sense producer nudging.

You think? I didn't like either of the bottom two. Posen was totally right, Patricia's look wasn't so much the graffiti in an alley as it was the gathered up trash lying in that alley. But Liana's was so stiff and serious it was depressing.

I think Patricia makes better TV because she's so unpredictable and her stuff is so weird, and like Heidi said, she's going to be nervous to see what comes down the runway.

I think Layana's jacket was a mistake last night, but she's made some really lovely things this season.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Finally watching TAR online since the whole thing was preempted on Sunday, and dayum, I am so jealous of all the train-riding back and forth across Switzerland. I love trains.

Holy CRAP, Survivor. Now that was some good TV.
