I will miss Andrew. yes, he was kind of annoying, but I think that he was a genuine guy. I do think less of him for being friends with Spike, though. And Spike has bacne, ew!

Oh my JESUS GOD, I want to smack Whitney SO MUCH. So VERY VERY MUCH. Girl, you are a SIZE TEN. You are like, five foot nine and a SIZE TEN. That is NOT FAT. That is probably not fat at most heights, but especially not when you're tall. Your belly is FLAT. We saw that in your pictures. Don't try and tell me how horrible your life has been with the girls telling you backhandedly how you don't look "that fat" and how you've always felt different, and yadda yadda. EAT ME, AND THEN MAYBE YOU'LL BE A BIT HEAVY, BIOTCH.

Hrmph.

I accept that she is a plus sized model. Certainly. I accept that she could feel fat next to the other models. But to talk about the whole "all my life" shit? No.

And many of the other plus size girls they've had on ANTM actually were, y'know, shopping in the plus sized stores. IJS. Whitney's not.

As Tyra said at one point during the judging tonight "but when she walks down the street, people aren't thinking plus size"

TC: Any of them good have gone and I would have been happy, but StephanieLisa complaining about someone not following the rules is just too much from someone that wouldn't use her main required ingrediant just a few weeks ago.

More importantly, what did Sam do to his hair?

ETA: Oops, I meant Lisa!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Top Chef: OMG, Sam is so hot! I miss Sam.

What? Content? Oh, right.

Hey...here's the rice fuckup I've been waiting for this season and every season. LEARN TO COOK RICE, PEOPLES! Okay, brown rice is marginally harder than white rice, but still.

Totally shitty of Lisa during the Judging Table of Doom. No reason for it, and Andrew was right to be pissed. Although, also, he needs to do the challenge. Whatev.

I agree that this is the whiniest season. It's so bad I feel like I'm getting ripped off with less judging table discussion in order to get all the stew room drama. I do not care about your drama, peoples, I care about your food.

Which is why Dale is growing on me. It's starting to look like he really has talent, and that at least some of the assholery did have to do with the other people involved. He does have a temper and should learn to keep that in check.

Oh, and srsly on the Top Caterer thing. I am so sick of those stupid coolers. I guess I should count my blessings. At least they're not "5-day wheeled coolers by Coleman, with Super Insulating Technology." or somesuch.

Anyway, yay Restaurant Wars.

Oh, and I stopped watching ANTM (the screaming, the screaming!) but this:

EAT ME, AND THEN MAYBE YOU'LL BE A BIT HEAVY, BIOTCH.
made me bwah!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously! Is she even as big as a 10?

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

LEARN TO COOK RICE, PEOPLES! Okay, brown rice is marginally harder than white rice, but still.

I also want to know how turning a burner UP causes something to be undercooked. That's a special kind of sabotage power there.

Ted Allen makes me laugh:

Art Crawl!!!

Well, it would have boiled the water dry before the rice had time to cook. (That's my understanding of it. . . not that I've done anything like that myself.)

The bottom 3 was my list of the next three people to go. I think I might have picked Spike or Lisa over Andrew - but it is just a matter of time.
