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

L'il Buck, who may as well not have been there. He was disappointing. So I'm still watching but Ricky? The first dancer I've liked this season. Auditions otherwise have been overall very much a No from bon.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

On behalf of boring dressers, I appreciate that the founder of Dragon House showed up in a Cosby sweater and glasses.

Because books.

Heh.

I'm also through last night's recording, and Ricky really was spectacular. The whole "dabbling" conversation was cute, too.

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

For those of you who watch Survivor, you may remember Caleb, Colton's fiancé? He died last week in a train accident. I guess he was a conductor?

That's too bad. He was the nice one.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Yeah, he seemed like a very sweet and together guy. Sad.

SYTYCD: Top 20! I feel like some of them didn't actually get a lot of screen time tonight, so I'm looking forward to next week.

Twitch is so wonderful. Only guy I can think of who could wear a polo shirt and a bow tie and still be hot as hell.

I already have a favorite -- Marquete (sp?) all the way! His smile is magic!

I love Marquette, however it's spelled, but I also love Ricky and the tappers.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

I hate the entirety of Vegas week plus Top 20 reveal all going down in one night. Haaaateee!

Also, Tara Lipinski is no Miss Debbie Allen substitute. No how. No way. I only enjoy her when Johnny Weir comes along as part of the package.

I am in love with Ricky. His final solo was everything. And I also preferred him with a little chin scruff, but I'll take him any way I can get him. I also greatly enjoy Marcquet (although really, parents? You couldn't just spell it Marquette?) and I appreciated the gracious way he dealt with his partner assuming that he was a hip hop kid since, you know, he's black. Eyes rolling forever. In general, I like that so many ballroom kids made it through. Tanisha is a fire cracker and cross trained to the heavens. I even like Nick (and his buddy Rudy) despite being already tired of the back story there. And I will like Serge once he gets rid of the hair because no. I was happy to see that they did not take Landon because he was not pleasing to the eye and also a pandered to the camera and was a face puller par excellence. Get rid of the bowl cut and maybe we will talk.

Glad that girl tapper made it through. I could kind of take or leave boy tapper. He's no Aaron is what I'm saying. I'm not excited by any of the hip hop kids who made it through. Nor am I over the moon about the contempo girls. The blonde who Nigel is lusting after (Jessica?) is the same as every blonde he ever lusts after on this show. And there is just nothing memorable about Bridget and her dead daddy dancing. I will be pulling for our ballerinas. They bring the fierceness.

I either don't remember or don't care about any of the rest of the Top 20. I was heartbroken that they cut the black boy with the dreads. He was gorgeous. Miss Debbie Allen would never have let it go down like that.
