Doesn't make you petty to want a cookie, hag

Just when I thought my crappy reality television viewing schedule was crowded enough, I discovered several extra crappy ones to brighten up my life. Whee! Let's get our reality television chat on:

America's Next Top Model: My head says McKey deserved to win but my soul thinks it was the most boring foregone conclusion in the history of Top Model. It's odd that my soul actually has thoughts on Top Model but that's neither here nor there. No way was Sam going to win. Her walk was clompy and her photos overall weren't as good as McKey's. The most exciting thing about the whole episode, aside from the funky runway with the giant hill, was Tyra's funkadelic outfits. One had some sort of shoulder pad things sticking straight out to the side. She paired those wings with some wicked tall hair. The whole look was very Melanie Griffith in Working Girl. That's not a compliment in 2008. The other outfit that lingers in my memory was the shirt she decided to wear as a dress. But, wait, maybe you didn't even notice the length on that monstrosity because you were staring in horror at the giant poofy shoulders on it. Can't say that I blame you but let me go ahead and share holy cow was that thing short.

Survivor: Survivor is currently sort of losing me because they're spending too much time letting Sugar think she's cute and clever. Maybe it's just me, but I get more annoyed with Sugar every week. On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being the kind of person you wish you could be around every day of your life and 10 being people so annoying that listening to them breathe makes you want to kill them, I’m going to put Sugar at a 6.5 right now. I realize Randy’s no piece of cake either. But seriously, Sugar trying to claim she gave someone else his cookie and didn’t know it was his cookie just rides my nerves. She tried to act like she didn't intentionally do it to be mean to Randy. Right. Good one. Then to top it off, she tries to act like he's the most petty person she's ever met for being upset about a cookie. Except not everyone got a giant bowl of peanut butter and chocolate. I guess if I'd just chowed down on that maybe a cookie would seem like small potatoes. But since I didn't and my money bought those cookies, I think it's reasonable to think I should get one. I also think it would be awesome if you spent less time orchestrating not just voting someone out but humiliating someone for your own entertainment. Hag. Laughing in people's faces is not cool. Although Corinne is too arrogant for me so I did enjoy watching her face when she realized what happened at the end. Especially after she winked or whatever it was she did to her jury buddies as if she had the big trick up her sleeve. Ha. Trick's on her.

Amazing Race: Tina is officially too much for me. I want Toni and Dallas to win. Mainly because I love how nice Dallas is to his mom. I hope everyone in America tells her what a good job she did raising him. He's exactly how you hope your son will be as adult. Although he could maybe spend a little less time on his hair. I'd also be okay with Nick and Starr winning. That probably means I've just jinxed them. In which case, please don't let Tina win.

Stylista: Lesson for life: Late night cramming is all well and good but you should in fact get some rest. Sleep is good for your memory. A biology teacher once told me that you should do last minute studying before you go to sleep as opposed to after you wake up because something way over my head happens when you're asleep that stores stuff in your memory. I'm pretty sure "stores stuff" is an exact quote from my biology textbook, too. Anyway, studying all night is stupid. I would have divided the list up just like the other team. I also would have made sure I sold Kate down the river a little more for not bothering to study the list at all. What's that about. That trick did nothing except cry and complain about her waist being too small. The horror.

Blush: I know. What has my life come to that I actually watched a show this stupid. It's a complete ripoff of Project Runway except with makeup artists instead of clothing designers. All I can say is one second I'm channel surfing and the next I'm staring at crazy people. One chick is so heavy handed with the make up that her people keep looking like porn stars. Another chick was flat out told that purple eye shadow didn't go with the retro vibe they were going for but she decided that purple eye shadow was a battle she was willing to fight. And the king of the crazies is some dude that appears to enjoy him some hats. One of his hats looked like giant insect eyeballs on either side of his head. Another looked like chain mail except it was sparkly. And another looked like something Cher would've worn to the Oscars in 1986. There was crap dangling from his hair and everything. Hello.

Ok, just have to comment on reality tv.

Survivor. I can't believe randy & corinne get this scheme to vote out Susie. SUSIE? Hello! Vote out Kenny or Matty, the REAL threats. Yes, Susie turned on you. But no way is she going to win. Focus on the GAME, people, there is time for revenge later. And how much do I love Bob??? I hope he can pull something off and make it to the finals.

Amazing Race. Please tell me HOW those frat boys are still in this? I mean I do like them. But they are so lame! They whine and complain all the time and act as if they are old men who need arthritis meds in order to participate. For God's sake. There is a Million at stake. Run! Who cares if you're wearing boots?! RUN, man run! So glad Terrene & Sarah are out of it. He is so whiny and needy, no way will their relationship survive. Ditto for Ken & Tina. She's a nag. They are all lovey-dovey when winning and then clawing at each other when behind. Nope, they are doomed to divorce. Of course my husband and I always say that if we ever went on that show, we'd end up divorced and America would be gossiping about our shortcomings so I guess I can't fault them too much for fighting.

Since reality tv pretty much equals my life, I have to comment.

ANTM: That was the exact comment that I made to my daughter about Tyra's one outfit! lol I said, "1987 called and wants it's outfit back!" It was awful. I agree that it was pretty predictable that Mckey won, but I know that Sam shouldn't have, so.....

Survivor: I think it was brilliant the way that Bob tricked Randy! I was personally thrilled and am loving Bob so much right now I'm not sure how to handle myself; but I agree with you that I am getting SO sick of Sugar. I am so over her.

Amazing Race: I agree with everything you said and we have the same picks.

Stylista: I think they made the right choice this week, just because she never seemed to contribute much. Kate gets on my nerves, but not as much as she seems to with the other contestants. I think there must be a lot she does that they don't show because they're all ready to hang her.

I know what you mean about stupid reality tv that you can't believe you watch! I'm also watching Paris Hilton's New BFF--what's that say about my life?

I thought Tyra looked like a Star Trek character. Maybe she needs a new stylist.
