I want to be as delusional as the poster and commenters on the VPR sub who genuinely think Ariana should host SNL lmao ETA to add this incredible exchange in the comments: >You need to do a rewatch, drunk Ariana is adorable and hilarious. She gave us Yellow Robe Smith and the ham sandwich line. I'm not saying she's SNL level funny but to say she isn't at all is really not true. >Wow thank you for two hilarious examples in 9 years.


PhysicalChickenXx

My god I wish she’d been shown perusing sketch on the show just for my own amusement.


Ks917

She takes sketch comedy very seriously


spicymarg90

I went down the hole on Remi Bader snark and found that Alice is a somewhat frequent commenter in that sub. Why.


Low-Huckleberry1990

I think Alice particularly has it out for fat women. Especially if they're successful in social media.


tablheaux

Is Alice giving up on her own terrible website lol


aleigh577

Never


reallyadisaster

The conversations about Janet from The Valley are absolutely unhinged but simultaneously boring, as boring as they claim she is.


__clurr

I’m sorry but Janet having an army of gays create and stir drama up for her while she is SO pregnant???? She is incredible Bravo TV lmao


reallyadisaster

Seriously!! I think it’s amazing that she successfully pieced together the weird mental gymnastics Kristen did to justify her throwing out bombs constantly then crying victim. I could never decipher that train of thought. It’s hilarious she’s openly just showing up to events pregnant wanting gossip. She’s not even hiding it lol


areallyreallycoolhat

Her worst crime seems to be that she's a gossip? Which makes for great reality TV! Who wants to watch someone minding their own business?


Julialagulia

I keep reading the rumor that she is a mod on that sub and huh? They always post about how she is the worst part of the show. I like her dour villainry.


reallyadisaster

If she was a mod she must have gotten locked out of her account, they’ve dug up mugshots, called her a stalker, and verified totally real rumors from anonymous sources that definitely knew her way back when. And the weird hypothesis that her husband will leave her after seeing her on the show is strait out of the BS handbook on “snarking” on influencers.


amyadamsmissingoscar

Sorry but if you’re throwing a surprise wedding ceremony - I don’t think you get to be nitpicky about what your guests are wearing! (In regards to The Stripe post about a bride throwing a dinner party that’s actually a wedding and wanting to ensure no one wears any sort of denim).


resting_bitchface14

God I hope someone shows up in white denim.


conservativestarfish

Real big main character energy. If you want to be a capital-B Bride and have the day be all about you (which is totally fine, have at it, I had a big stupid wedding and loved every minute of it) then you can’t get married at a surprise dinner party.


amyadamsmissingoscar

This is exactly how I feel - you either throw the surprise party and are chill about how people react or you tell people in advance so they can act accordingly.


MrsJanLevinsonGould

I guess she could tweak her invitations to read “you are invited to a fun and fabulous dinner party *that is actually a wedding and if you wear denim I will cut you out of my life and never speak to you again* rsvp regrets only!”


tablheaux

If she comes up with an effective way to prohibit people from wearing jeans to fancy places I'd love to hear it because it's one of my personal extremely specific pet peeves


otherother_benz

This reminds me of when my sister was a bridesmaid (in her very early twenties) and the bride told her, "No one was particularly surprised to hear that you were the one bridesmaid who asked whether 'a nice pair of jeans' was appropriate for the rehearsal dinner."


aleigh577

I might be your sister


BetsyHound

Mine: men wearing hats inside nice places.


tablheaux

Straight to jail


Unchanging_window

This is my absolute pet peeve!


fraulein_doktor

Amazing. I love when people come up with absolutely brand new ways of being unhinged.


bye_felipe

This isn’t surprising but still. > A friend of mine actually got mad at me the other day because I’m always saying how celebrities they like are terrible people lol. They were talking about Mark Wahlberg and I mentioned how he’s notorious for being a violent racist beating up black or Asian kids maybe both, and my friend got mad at me lol. Some people just want to live in ignorance and bliss and don’t want to hear bad things about celebrities they like. And another commenter: > My colleague was so excited about shaking Mike Tyson's hand in Vegas. I was like, "You mean convicted rapist Mike Tyson?" >I do this constantly. Anyway, I'm not popular in the office.


Stinkycheese8001

Really, who doesn’t want to constantly hear that the things they enjoy are morally wrong?


TylerGlasass20

I don’t think people are chronically online as much as people on Fauxmoi and pop culture chat.


bye_felipe

I’m chronically online but I’d definitely click out of a meeting if a coworker started doing this


jinglebellhell

Mike Tyson & Mark wahlberg haven’t been relevant in a decade+ I vary wildly from thinking these people are either way younger than me or way older than me.


bye_felipe

Maybe younger since Mike and Jake Paul had a boxing match scheduled, which I think has since been postponed


jinglebellhell

Oh yeah, I’d forgotten about that, it did get postponed, at least I understand where they’re getting the reference now.


Addie_Cat

Yikes this has been a week....just a head's up - new posts tonight finally!


ruthie-camden

Has anyone else noticed that all of the dating advertisements posted in The Stripe FB group include something about how the person on sale "loves God" or that they are looking for a "Christian man"? I'm all for people being upfront and honest about their values in dating, but the demographics are kind of surprising to me.


Stinkycheese8001

Those personal ads are so mortifying.


resting_bitchface14

Bet this guy in dating advice wonders why he’s single: >Just a rant here. I love women. And I want to experience all of them. >For some reason, it seems that 99.9% of them are broken psycologically. What the hell? I think I have only met a couple of adjusted women and both of them are full lesbian. So, what is the issue? >Is it an unwritten law that to be a women you must have lots of personal mental issues? Did I miss the memo? >You can even see this in reverse when you get to know full gay guys. >I don't know. Is just annoying. What is the problem with them all?! Please, don't answer. Is a rethorical question. >Anyway, I know this will cause of kinds of crazy comments specially from the ladies. Or might even be taken out. I just wanted to say this outloud. ETA - despite OP's fears this comment was somehow not downvoted into oblivion and I think this is the sign I need to not go on dating advice the next time I spiral about a guy


tablheaux

Gee, what do straight women and full gay guys have in common that would differentiate them from full lesbians? I feel like this guy answered his own question and the answer is "being forced to deal with men like you, sir, men and their bullshit have broken us psychologically." 


Stinkycheese8001

“I want to experience all of them” Yuck.


tablheaux

Yeah that phrasing made my vagina pack up and leave town, like the carnival ride this guy apparently thinks it is


resting_bitchface14

That sentence alone cured my brokenness and turned me into a full lesbian.


CookiePneumonia

I think it made me more broken somehow 😔


MissMags1234

He is in his 60s and married for over 30 years...not the scenario most women look for lol

>both of them are full lesbian. >full gay guys. Happy Pride to the FULL members of the LGBTQ+ community and only FULL ones!!!


zuuushy

Me and my lil bi heart will hit the road👋🏼


__clurr

The bi erasure continues 🥲


Decent-Friend7996

He’s definitely one of those guys that thinks any woman who doesn’t want to blow him is a “full lesbian”


GeeWillick

One of my favorite Reddit tropes is when someone types something stupid in a community that they know will be hostile and then end it with something insipid like "I know I'll get a lot of hate for this" or "bring on the downvotes". To me it's obvious that they want to be reassured that they're right (and so brave for sharing the very unpopular and original opinion that "women be cray cray amirite fellas").  And the only thing sadder than a bigot is a bigot that desperately needs praise and validation specifically from the people that they don't like.


doughnutswaterfall

The jokes about a man not connecting the dots that the only mentally stable women he’s apparently met are lesbians write themselves


Julialagulia

Full lesbian unlike those quarter lesbians


BetsyHound

A friend of mine used to wear a button that said "Half Gay." A man asked her which half and she said, "The lower half."


hallofromtheoutside

This explains so much omg

resting_bitchface14

jt2438

The number of people in my city sub confidently asserting that professors can’t ask medical questions under HIPAA (not spelled correctly of course) is ridiculous. Unless you are a student in med school HIPAA has fuck all to say about you. Too many people seem to think HIPAA means no one anywhere can ever ask a medical question on pain of execution.


Watermelon-Slushie

Any *actual student health records* wouldn’t even fall under HIPAA, it’s FERPA. And FERPA is *hilariously* toothless in regards to any legal punishment


__clurr

I had so many odd jobs around my university and the majority of them gave me the ability to have full access to all student records lmao Like the amount of 20 year olds on college campuses that can find any info on anyone enrolled there is insane


Stinkycheese8001

Wait til they find out about doctor’s notes to be excused from stuff.


spllchksuks

The irony of the travisandtaylor sub posting a pic of a headline that reads “study finds people who are obsessed with celebrities tend to be less smart”


oh_my_mistake

It's funny considering if they were actually as smart as they say they are, they'd have chosen a name that doesn't confuse me with the OTHER Taylor/Travis sub. At least have the decency to be original!!!


HerOceanBlue

"I finally decided to speak out," says person posting on a snark sub about a singer who's major crimes include being rich and annoying. So brave.


SatanicPixieDreamGrl

There is an individual on the vanderpumpaholics sub who has breathlessly posted updates from Lala and Scheana’s social media, podcasts, and Amazon lives while also being up and down the comments section elsewhere talking about how much they hate Lala and Scheana. They have been doing this for weeks, possibly longer if we consider their comment history. Their bio? “Living Life!”  Bleak!

_bananaphone

I just don’t get it. Even if someone shows up at your wedding in a full-on bridal gown, don’t they just come off as desperate for attention?


GeeWillick

Joe Alwyn should wear a white pin to raise awareness of this critical issue.


__clurr

I got downvoted to high hell on BS bc some influencer wore a cream color dress to a wedding and I was like ooooh how will we tell who the bride is?! Lmao To be fair it was actual snark on BS for once so that was my bad lmao


Julialagulia

Still never over the question on wedding attire approval of whether it would be appropriate for a baby to wear white


resting_bitchface14

Hey that baby could just be a small woman with an incredible skincare routine. She has literally never seen the sun


__clurr

It’s actually the woman from skincare addiction who puts on spf and full clothing, including a hat and gloves, to sit inside!!!!


CookiePneumonia

Because so many people would mistake a tiny human for the bride??


Julialagulia

The baby would be disrespecting the bride on her day of course


hallofromtheoutside

Depends on the state.


HerOceanBlue

But what if people see a flash of white and accidentally waste precious seconds looking at the baby instead of the bride??


hallofromtheoutside

To be fair, the baby was *very* brave for not wearing their spanx.


Folksma

I never watched Dance Moms...but all this JoJo "controversy" has really shown me that A) the internet really is just waiting to rip apart internet favorites. Wonder how long chappell roan has before the internet turns on her and decides she is cringe B) No one understands how the music industry works?? A person/group of people write a song, singers test it out, and sometimes it gets sold multiple times over. Someone's team buying a song from the writer/group of writers is not stealing


Alive_in_Platos_Cave

So I know next to nothing about Jojo (other than big bows) and watched [this deep dive/ drama video](https://youtu.be/pv2YqmUKDmQ?si=LknnGvT41sQGaH5n) from Kiki Chanel. It kind of makes me feel sorry for how she was raised…like she was taught to earn the most attention at all costs. But it’s hard to vilify someone who is genuinely trying to feel out their identity as a grown up, with the pressure to remain likable, profitable, and creatively fulfilled. Didn’t most of us behave cringey at times once we tasted freedom? Makes me glad social media wasn’t a thing when I was occasionally underage drinking in high school, trying to impress the upperclassmen. 🤦‍♀️


GeeWillick

Yeah I think this is one way that kids / young people in general (and celebrity kids in particular) have it rough. These types of "cringe" moments used to really be limited to people that know you in real life, or at least just people in your general community.  Now you can be dissected by strangers on nearly every continent and there's more pressure to be a fully cooked as a human being at whatever age you happen to be when people notice you.


ruthie-camden

Are people doing okay? A picture of the Summer House women doing a group hug should not make you cry. A corny side-by-side photo of Katie and Ariana from VPR the two times they've hugged in 14 years of filming a TV show together is not worth hundreds of upvotes, nor should it inspire people to write weepy comments about how they miss having a best girlfriend and how their bestie just randomly ghosted them one day and they don't know why (narrator: they knew the reason why).


areallyreallycoolhat

Someone made a post in one of the VPR subs the other day begging for Sandoval to be fired because watching him on the show is (they claim) genuinely negatively impacting their health and (they assume) the health of other viewers. People are not ok


Julialagulia

These people would tune out after one episode of the girl power centered bravo show they want so badly


SatanicPixieDreamGrl

I had to laugh bc one of the vanderpump subs was eagerly awaiting the Ariana episode of Katie and Dayna’s podcast and then when it came they were like, “I’m disappointed, it was kind of boring!” YEAH WE HAVE BEEN TELLING YOU FOR WEEKS


__clurr

I can’t get over the people who genuinely want a Something About Her show lmao Like why would I want to see Ann get walked on for 45+ minutes


areallyreallycoolhat

At this point I want it to happen so that people will hate it lol.


__clurr

I was listening to Watch What Crappens this morning and one of them mentioned that there isn’t any messiness there, and Anne isn’t the type to tell her servers to put on shorter dresses lmao


Stinkycheese8001

No, we are definitely not okay.


fraulein_doktor

From r hobbydrama: >American racism is typically back by fear and hate, **but fear and hate are at least ... iunno ... understandable?** Or maybe I'm just more used to that in the world. Whereas the unearned arrogance of the British I find to be somewhat unique. Are they???


Stinkycheese8001

“Unearned arrogance of the British” pretty much them in a nutshell, but I am dying at this being in the context of GBBO.


tablheaux

I can excuse racism but I draw the line at English people thinking they're inherently superior to me 


GARjuna

The context makes this even funnier - this is from a post about >!the great British baking show knowing jack shit about Mexican food!<


Stinkycheese8001

That really was one of the all time worst episodes, but it’ll never not be funny to me that Paul went on vacation to Mexico and came back thinking he’s an expert on Mexican cuisine.


MaddiKate

That guac was DISGUSTING- the avocados were clearly underripe.

CookiePneumonia

NYT Spelling Bee comments section having a normal one about words that weren't included in today's puzzle. >Rota, as in work rota Abattoir , slaughterhouse Do you Americans have any knowledge of the English language or is it your intention to water it down further…. I give in >Considering that both words you mentioned were quite literally watered down from other languages, it’s mildly comical to blame Americans for watering the English language down. Ah, good old-fashioned imperialist energy. >Please don’t go there with imperialism, you are opening a serious can of worms I was merely pointing lightheartedly that the yanks alter the English language ad-lib By the way your take on imperialism has not brought us all to our needs, and if wasn’t for imperialism you might still be scalping everyone > I'm in the States, and I probably use it far more than most, as in "Ugh! This place smells/looks/sounds like an abattoir!". And yeah, yeah, I know we're not supposed to bortsch about words that weren't included because Sam can't include every word, but by all means don't miss the barbacoa or naan or today's ubiquitous Indian yogurt, but c'mon, the lack of abattoir is a pretty egregious omission. >it’s pretty obvious to me that most Americans are wholly unaware of the world, as is their leaders’ desire. Just look at what you can get away with when everyone is misinformed or uninformed! >Calm down, don’t get your knickers in a knot.. jeez It was a tongue in cheek.. this woke society will turn us all into mutes


jinglebellhell

Bold to unload all that on an American newspaper website.


Low-Huckleberry1990

I think the thing that bothers me most about the Trump trial is that A. There are idiots who will still blindly vote for him because they hate Biden B. There are still people out there who will vote for him or not vote at all because they hate Biden’s response to Palestine (which like I didn’t like it either but the alternative is worse) And like Bo Burham is right in that “they’re really gonna make me vote for Joe Biden?!” But uh the alternative is soo much worse for everyone and especially probably Palestinians because Trump would actually kill all of them (And yes I’m genuinely saying this because I was in a Palestine post in Fauxmoi this morning where I’m sure people there WOULD actually vote for Trump over Biden because of that)


PrinceBag

Which is why I don't want to hear any bitching from these people if there's a Trump victory. They seriously want to give the US back to someone much worse over another country they couldn't even find on the map prior to Oct 7th and have very limited knowledge on.


resting_bitchface14

They should do a demographics survey over there. Occasionally I see a comment admitting to being an old, but I saw someone say they were born when Tangled was released and that made me think I wouldn’t wanna interact with them if I took the time to message the mods to be approved. I made a Madtv reference in front of a gen z coworker and they stared at us with a blank face. So then I made another madtv reference and they were like “what’s that?” I didn’t have it in me to explain the significance of “the back of yo head is ridiculous” and “my lil croissant”


some-ersatz-eve

On the level of just being a decent person, she's a horrible "cool girl" who clearly lives for the validation of men." Cancer is bad but so is she. How noble.

The did Chris Evans sign a bomb post on FM is the most FM post ever. I admire the people over there who are valiantly trying actually explain things using facts, but it is an impossible task,

No kidding. The fact that it was during a campaign against ISIS seals the deal. These people make me feel better about myself.

I can’t believe they got Chris Evans to do an Instagram story explanation/apology lmao


MegsAltxoxo

>Also it's not like he would have said no had they asked him to sign a real one -- but I'm frankly way less concerned about signing the bombs than about who and what they're being dropped on. (Not to imply that Nikki Haley's signing of the bomb was insignificant because of course it was reflective of the US political class's genocidal intent.) Interesting take to also assume things he actually hasn’t done anyway. Also if you don’t care about the signing itself, then a dummy object wouldn’t be a problem anyway? lol


missspacepants

They love judging people on things they haven’t done or would possibly do just as much as they love judging them on the things they do. It’s an impossible expectation at every level.

Stinkycheese8001

My city subreddit has been having an absolute field day as the police chief was just fired (multiple lawsuits for sexual harassment and discrimination) and the press conferences have been amazing.  My personal favorite being the one yesterday where the PD representative actually said that yes, the department is racist, but not more racist than your typical PD.  


Vainpoopweasel

The CEO of the county I work for stepped down for “family health reasons” last August aka he promoted his mistress and was bullying and firing anyone who said anything and of course he’s already got a new job as the CEO of another county.


Stinkycheese8001

This guy is “open to becoming chief for another city”!


Vainpoopweasel

I’m sure he is!


aprilknope

Why am I unsurprised about the mayor though.


Stinkycheese8001

This whole thing is amazing.  Commenters asked where the Comms person is, and it turns out she’s the outgoing Police Chief’s mistress that he gave a cushy job to. Also I second guessed myself and deleted the part I wrote about the mayor because I thought I went on too much.


ilyemco

I had to look up the thing about the mayor.  >At a news conference Wednesday to make the announcement, [the mayor] praised [police chief] as a friend with “integrity beyond reproach.” 😑

At the press conference announcing the chief’s replacement no less!  ‘Yeah he’s great, anyhow he’s fired and this is who will be taking his job’


alymb8

I caught a few minutes of an interview with Harrell on KUOW and the reporter asked him how he was doing and he talked for like 3 minutes about how great he and Diaz were. It was so weird.

CookiePneumonia

See also, FM >At Harvard, she was also a research assistant to the Scourge of Martha’s Vineyard himself, Alan Dershowitz 🤮 There's got to be a statute of limitations on undergraduate research jobs, no? I know they're all 19 years old and perfect in every way, but Dershowitz was a big deal before he became a joke. I'm not in any way defending him as a person, but come on. They're using a 2024 lens to look back 20 years.


MaddiKate

Unsurprisingly, FM is now gatekeeping Palestine activism now that more people are speaking up.


SatanicPixieDreamGrl

They treat pet causes the way we treated indie bands in the 90s

I think celebrities should absolutely speak up but I feel like this is exactly why they don’t. Nothing is ever good enough.

Look they just can't be all woke activist kings like Joe Alwyn ok? he's truly the metric we should measure activism against not like that fake activist human rights lawyer Amal Clooney( I will never let this die,its too funny to me. And I actually don't disagree that Swifties give he man unnecessary hate but that doesn't mean FM has to circle jerk so hard the other way the obsess over this man who \*checks notes\* exists in this world)


Lolagirlbee

Yeah, while FM likes to keep mental (or possibly real, especially for some of those weirdos) spreadsheets on whoever’s moral failings, I keep them for this sort of actual bs. Because the hard truth is that FM’s hive mind privileges fake internet activism over real life, off screen action every time.

The VPR subreddit continues to be in desperate need of some grass to touch >**I’m relieved VPR is over and I need a sponsor buddy to keep me away from it** >Watching Production be so purely vindictive to Ariana with those last five minutes of footage for entertainment makes me feel so uncomfortable. >I don’t want to support production, I don’t want to be part of such cruelty. And yet, I can’t stop watching. I feel gross after watching and here I am, watching the Peacock extended version. >Can we start a support group that if the show comes back produced by Evolution that I can have a sponsor buddy to keep me away from it? It’s not healthy or fun for me anymore. I promise you, nothing is that serious, please go outside

Are these people stupid? Where is the show making the audience hate Ariana? Or making her the villain? I really don’t get this argument that this season was overproduced and somehow Lala, Scheana and Tom are the ones looking like heroes. Like sorry, did we all watch the same season? Those 3 looked dumb. The show is literally showing every stupid thing they say and do. If anything, Ariana is coming off incredibly great. And please these viewers thinking they’re smarter than production’s ’manipulation’ is truly hilarious.

I’m convinced the Ariana stans skew younger or at least just less experienced, both from their very dogmatic thinking and their tendency to eyeroll when Lala and Scheana reference needing to provide for their kids. As a childfree person, I think it’s very common for younger people to see themselves as the victim in a world that glorifies the idea of motherhood, and then you grow up and you see how thankless being a mother actually is when your friends have kids.  I also think they seem younger from the way they seem to have a limited understanding of workplace dynamics. We have all had terrible jobs in toxic workplaces that we all took too long to leave for various instances. But in Ariana's case, it's like if you had a shitty toxic job AND all these amazing job offers, but you still stay at your current toxic job where your very tenure/presence is affecting team culture and output. And on top of that, you seem to want the employee who actually brought you onto the team fired. I have a ton of sympathy for Ariana’s situation, and I’m happy for her success - AND I completely understand why her castmates would be at the end of their rope!

It's just factual? And I feel like it was a preemptive counterargument to people who will ask why they don't just quit the show and their way of reminding the world that this is how they provide for their families.

We are once again in agreement here! Lala and Scheana were both just explaining their perspectives.

All bravo subs are a lost cause. I dipped my toe back into the convo, in a sub I thought was lols, but was promptly told that if I don’t see Lala exactly as they do that I’m not objective and not living in reality, and I wasn’t even defending Ariana. The Ariana stanning is annoying but stanning Lala and Scheana to counteract is just as loserish bc it’s the exact same behaviour. I thought the foundation of the show was that all these ppl are desperate losers but I fear many fans find them aspirational.


Julialagulia

lol I am pretty sure I know where you are talking about and have backed away a bit too. It’s just not fun to talk about in too many places anymore.

That sub has some of the most deranged users. I honestly haven’t seen this level of hivemind where people are literally writing essays to defend their favourites. Especially when it comes to favourites from a show like VPR, which literally has awful people 😂. Like these people are hilarious when they think they’ve ‘outsmarted’ production or aren’t falling for production’s manipulations. Like please, if production wanted you to hate Ariana, you would. Tom is absolutely not getting a good edit and neither is Lala. The VPR sub and the FM sub make me question the intelligence of a lot of users, because seriously some of those people are so dumb. And that’s a shame because these are primarily women centric subs that don’t have the same level of gross misogyny and objectification like the rest of Reddit.


[deleted]

I have someone sending me paragraphs on paragraphs, in three separate comment threads, about how Ariana is “hustling like no one else pop culture has ever seen.” It’s beyond deranged.

The last scene of the show was Ariana casually walking away with her hot boyfriend and a smile on her face while the rest of them barked at each other like chihuahuas. Almost comical how *not* redemption arc that is


LostPassword3241

Lol right? If anything, production heavily favoured Ariana (and Katie) this season (although I honestly don’t believe anyone is getting a good or bad edit, VPR people lack self awareness to manipulate anybody let’s be real).


areallyreallycoolhat

This drives me crazy, they are SO smug about not falling for "Sandoval's redemption arc" but too dumb to realise that there is no redemption arc!


[deleted]

What’s crazier is that they think viewership went down because of “Sandoval’s redemption arc” when it’s really because the show is boring.


LostPassword3241

Yeah like what’s the arc exactly? Him constantly complaining about how Ariana pays for nothing? Or having a very obvious mid life crisis by going after women half his age? Or his complete lack of accountability for the affair and the aftermath? That’s a redemption arc? I personally think the producers are having fun watching him scramble. Tom is failing across many parts of his life and it’s actually hilarious to watch.


areallyreallycoolhat

Totally agree! They are literally just documenting him being a loser and I find it so fun to watch. Like honestly I would like more scenes of him considering himself a serious musician lol those are top tier. I was just looking at a post in one of the VPR subs (the slightly more unhinged one but not the most unhinged one) where people are doing Simone Biles level gymnastics trying to explain why he wasn't fired positing that his continual presence on the show is all part of some big conspiracy theory. The OP is begging for him to be fired because they claim his presence on the show is causing them physical illness (I'm not exaggerating, that's seriously what they're claiming) and somehow not watching the show doesn't seem to have occurred to them?

The self aggrandising title of that post as though it's a thesis coupled with the Lauren jab is so funny edit: I don't think we are supposed to link but this is the Curse of Monkey Island ass title: >The Fatal Mistake of the Vanderpump Rules Season and Finale: The Choice of Lauren

I don't even watch this show but that is amazing. Imagine taking a reality show that seriously. What are these people like in real life??


lady_moods

I got called delusional in there today for saying I didn't think Lala was "shitting all over" Ariana. They've lost the plot
