I know! I turned around and I was like, Why is it 11:15?!
Buffy: I was regrouping. Spike: You were about to be regrouped into separate piles.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
I really thought Ryan was going to go, but I can see why they went with Nimma. Ah, well. I was scared when all the ones I took an immediate liking to were all in danger of elimination.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
Okay, I am watching the 11Pm version, and I have an official favorite 23 minutes in-- Andrew with his "casa, motherfuckers! What, faaatneeess!"

I think someone needs to put together a montage or vid or something of TV's various Spikes -- Buffy, Cowboy Bebop, Passions, and now Top Chef!

I may have to revise my favorite. I suspect that he can get annoying. The other guy is a douchebag, though. Of course, that means that he'll make it to the end.

Top Model not that exciting. I like Claire and Lauren. I was watching with my friend J, going "Is it bad that I'm kinda turned on by Lauren's crazy meat shoot?". The crazy meat shoot was just freakish. Like, they've run out of ideas entirely by the 10th cycle. Meat underwear? Is that going to give you an infection??
I really want half the girls to go home already. I felt like Amis was trying to be drunk Lisa from a few cycles back, but failing to get good pictures (which Lisa had). And Fatima is annoying. As is Whitney. And Dominique.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
So in the West Coast version of Big Brother, James said he would "crap his pants" if he got to go back in, and Julie kept warning him to keep it clean.
Did he say something other than "crap" in the live show?

Art Crawl!!!
I agree that Andrew could be annoying but that the other guy is also annoying - so it's a wash.
I loved both the QF AND the elimination challenge and it was a bonus to have Colicchio, Rocco AND Bourdain.
(And to be cooking classics for these guys and to fuck up? Bad idea.)

Yeah, that was an impressive group at judges table. Amused me that Bourdain and Rocco were at opposite ends, too. (Although they would have been anyway, given who they were "playing" that night.)
As always in the beginning, there are too many for me to start picking favorites -- I don't know them well enough yet. Anthony annoyed me, the Kiwi guy was cute and sort of clueless, and I felt bad for both Nimma and ... Brian? Whoever didn't know what piccata was.
I wish Bourdain was on every week. Although I did miss Ted.
