Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

FTR I just watched last night's SYTYCD and read Kat's post to bob bob right after. Loved it! Those recaps are essential reading.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

SYTYCD, briefly:

I love Tyrone the tapper.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Did that Swon brother just say that Oklahoma is "a praying state, and we know that helps"? Oh honey, no.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also, I am now officially over Josiah, and enjoyed Usher and Pharrell riding him.

Because books.

I'm a little disappointed that Shakira looks like she took hair advice from Christina tonight.

I agree with all of the above messages.

I'm late. I'm just starting the show.

Shakira got some really bad hair extensions. We see you Shakira. That hair hasn't been on a human head in the past 12 months.

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

Okay, I don't really like Adam Levine and Maroon 5's recent songs. It's like they have just gotten blander with the years. This could have been cranked out of a pop computer.

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

Okay first half report:

Adam has a really good team. I really dig Amber - she has a great voice, nice tone. I like Judith too, but I kind of wish a different song had been chosen. I have to agree with Usher, I didn't like the Holly's song at all. She has a great voice and I think Blake should have guided her better.

I am over the Swon Brothers. I don't hate them, but if they went this week, that would be just fine with me.

After the remark that Sasha has a Broadway tone to her voice, I cannot unhear that.

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

Second half:

I have an established hate-on for Josiah. I shall not repeat my statements of contempt.

Danielle was given a completely boring song by Blake. I mean WTF. She has a great voice and you give her THAT song? She made the best of it, but eh.

(how many fucking commercials does "The Voice" have? I feel like I've been watching this ep since yesterday.
