Pedophile!

I knew that For Love or Money woos (wus?) would go for the little eighth-grader. (And I wrote that previous post before getting to the part where he discusses how she's the most likely to pick him over the money.)

This show is getting sick.

Such interesting situations with such completely unintersting people. Gone pretty flat. At least he's not treating them like his personal harem anymore. Or acting like it's his first chance in a decade to kiss a girl. Maybe he got that out of his system, kissing several women for the first time in a decade.

At least that horrible gold-digger is gone. Of course she lied her ass off on the way out.

'Queer Eye for the Straight Guy'

I first saw the ad in Radar, thought it was a joke. Not. Coming to Bravo, this month. But I have a feeling I'll hate it.

 

Looking forward to Boy Meets Boy though.

That cliff-jumping feeling

 

Paige last night--that little 8th-grade girl they cast on For Lover Money:

 

"You know when you're about to jump off a cliff? You can't look down, you just have to run and do it? That's how I felt."

 

Hmmmm. No Paige, I'm afraid I'm not familiar with how I feel right before I jump off a cliff. A picture named For Love Or Money campospic.jpgNot a literal one anyway. I've always assumed I would have that experience at most one time.

 

The one big downside to them telling the pathetic bachelor about the money is that now I think he'll go for the woman (or girl, in this case) who he thinks is most sincere, most in love, and most naïve. So he'll pick that annoying little ditz Paige. Ugh. I guess it would be better than that cheap hussy Kelly getting her hands on the cash. Not a chance in hell she'd pick him over the money. And I think he's smart enough to realize that.

 

Of course I could have already been proven wrong.

I'm just breakfasting over the show on my Tivo this morning, posting as if it's playing out realtime, because it is for me.

Now unfortunately, there aren't a lot of good choices left. He's down to three, and Erin has yet to set me on fire, but at least she's not hideous like those other two. (That promise ring to herself, is the dumbest thing I've ever heard of, for starters.)
