Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I've been ready for him to go since he unabashedly copped to his Asian men fetish in episode one.

Oh my God, that was so gross. If he had said, "my boyfriend is Vietnamese so I had a reasonable amount of exposure to Vietnamese cuisine," that would be perfectly fine. But the whole "I only date Asian men" thing just skeeved me out like whoa. Yellow fever is icky whether the recipient is women or men, yo. And the way he tried to position himself as this brilliant expert in all things Vietnamese, like dude, you are some pasty white dude who traveled to the country once. Don't call it "my food" and try to take fucking ownership. It was like an one-man cultural appropriation theater. (CUT HIM QUICK, PADMA.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

PR:All-stars, wow, really QVC centric! Huh. Fun to see some of these designers again, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The Voice: I would say that Adam just picked his battle pairings by looking at pictures, but the people were also well-matched!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Vanilla Ice Goes Amish is kind of fun and sweet. Also, the Amish on the show appear to be real Amish, not the fake ones on various 'reality' shows. How weird is it that the guy who is the epitome of Novelty White Rapper is doing the best presentation of Amish culture?

Oh, man. Not loving this season of TAR, all my favorite teams keep going home! boo!

Yeah, a definite boo! Switching tasks was a sad mistake for them.

Gdansk was lovely, though. And packzis!

Boo is right!

I feel sad for the OK boy who felt "humiliated" by wearing a dress.

According to the onscreen comment, the teams had been racing at least 30 hours by the end of last episode. And before they reached Gdansk, they had to wait for a boat, sail to the port where they got a plane, and fly to Poland. Those are long long LONG legs they're racing.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

aw, I loved the mountain men. They were hilarious. At least they won a little cash for coming in first earlier though.

Having lived in Boston for 20 years, I get a kick out of Jason's Boston accent kicking in every once in a while. Adorbs!
