Bachelor Recap: Olivia is Going to Swallow Everyone.

Hey Girls & Boys!  Sorry for the delay.  My golden retriever aka the coolest dog in the world had minor surgery yesterday – which he came out of a little stitched up but just fine… I, on the other hand, seriously needed to be medicated.  How do people with kids even watch them get shots??  PS did y’all know Gus has his own insta??  #gusgusforpresident

Onto Monday night’s train wreck…

1.  I said it yesterday and I’ll say it again: Dude close your mouth. And somebody check that girl’s molars – cuz I guarantee there are 17 mosquitoes and 75 lightning bugs trapped back there.

Also, makeup is a miraculous thing.  I almost didn’t recognize her.

2. “Ben is the GREATEST bachelor on the PLANET of HISTORY…” Um, say what now?  Did they not offer English 101 at Caesar’s Palace University?  But yo.  I don’t disagree with her.  AND (gulp), I can’t remember which one but I remember thinking last night that one of the twins was actually really sweet.

3.  Chris Harrison dressed as the nerdy principal??  HAAAAAAAAAAA.  I cackled.  REAL loud.

4.  “I will not murder Lace but she may very tactfully disappear” = BAHAHHAHAHA. My $’s on GI Jubilee.  And she takes the cake so far for the ballsy one-liners and calling everything like she sees it.

5.  Didn’t these girls get a geography lesson when Tom Hanks pulled down the map for Jonah in Sleepless in Seattle? Oh wait. That movie came out before these chicks were born.  But seriously.  Weren’t they just in social studies class like 10 minutes ago??  Get it together kids.

6.  When Chris said, “let’s settle it on the track,” I literally almost hopped off my barstool and suited up right there.

This was me when I was their age.  Step aside, floozies.

7.  Is Heather Graham part Kenyan??  Good LAWWWWD.  And why is Amber jogging?

8.  This poor girl is her own worst enemy.  I’ve never witnessed anyone dig their own grave as fast as Lace did this week.. She’d have better luck if she just sat back, batted her eyes and never (EVER) opened her mouth.  I don’t know if I’ve ever felt embarrassed for a villain on this show before, but I legit feel bad for the girl.  She can’t even help herself.

9.  I don’t see her making it much further, but at least she has a promising future as a Neutrogena model.  Dang girl.

10. So listen.  I’m not crazy about this whole situation called Becca being back this season, but I DO have major hair envy.  And I also give her props for the move of pulling him aside to shoot hoops barefoot.  Well played.

11.  Ben + Jo Jo 4-eva. Love it and love her.  I’m putting BIG MONEY on her.

PS were Jo Jo & Isla Fisher actually separated at birth?

12. Hands-down the best part of the show:  (Question: What’s the most romantic thing you’ve ever done for a woman?)… Kevin Hart: “I cook some fried chicken one time in the crock pot. And thas coo.”

13.  She’s sweet as pie but I can’t take her seriously as a contender for Ben.  Like, I wanna invite her to my slumber parties and have her braid my hair and give her a pair of Hello Kitty pajamas for Christmas and maybe a Best Friends necklace, but for some reason I can’t see them together.

14.  I die.  BAAAAAAAAAAAAAHDHJSHDJKSAhdjhsajhahaha

Screen Shot 2016-01-13 at 7.08.44 AM

15. I’d rather sh*t twice and die than have anyone smell me right after I get off the treadmill.. the end.

They didn’t need to announce who had the lowest score.  That was unnecessarily cruel and salt in the wound after the “sour” comment.

16.  Girlfriend’s profession is “twin”? Are we serious about life right now??

17.  Are Lace and Lucifer in LL BEAN related?  No for real.

18.  How SWEET was he to Squeaky??  Who btw is totally growing on me – she’s a good girl.

Screen Shot 2016-01-13 at 8.29.00 AM

But for real… he is SUPER sweet and so endearing.  I’m *legitimately* convinced he’s in love with each of them whenever he’s talking to them because he makes each of them feel like the most important person in the world and the only person who’s there.  Which means they’re all in trouble.  I have no idea how he remembers all their names, let alone remembers things about them and asks questions and conveys genuine interest in each of them.  Best Bachelor, Ever.

19.  Dear LB: I’ll take your spot.  Cuz girl you so crazy.

Screen Shot 2016-01-13 at 9.12.22 AM

20.  Lauren is super sweet.  They let some looney tunes on this year – e.g. the Chicken Lady, the Donkey Lady, LACE, etc – which I guess they have to for ratings’ sake, but there are some good eggs here too.  Did you hear what she said?? “Even if I had to go home tonight I’d be bummed, but at least I know I learned a lot about myself and made some really good friends.”  I love her.

21.  Dear Amber: You’re 30 and this is your 4th Bachelor series run.  You’re the Blanche Devereux of this season and the Chris Bukowski (ew) of Bachelor world.  So I love you, but stop complaining like a little Sally and go talk to him.  All the kids are doin’ it – no reason why you can’t.

22.  I mean… it’s not outside the realm of possibilities.

23.  Ew.

(Cue the Cyndi Lauper): “I see your truuuuuuuuuuuue cahhhlllahhhrrrs shiiiiining through!” #eldiablo

Bachelor Recap will be up tomorrow.

Hey Campers!  Sorry to leave you guys hanging – Bach Recap will go up tomorrow (Wednesday).  The bar we watched it at last night didn’t start the show until AFTER the National Championship was over (ahem – #priorities, people), then wouldn’t fast forward through commercials until I stood on my barstool every time to get their attention (classy), which basically means it was over at midnight.  But mostly, my ride-or-die (GusGus for President) has a procedure at the vet this morning, and also – that job thing – so I won’t be able to give slinging hilarity my full attention until later tonight.  So until tomorrow, I leave you with this riddle:

WHO AM I?

cam

You know it’s true.  Good LAWD girl, re-hinge your jaw and close your mouth… or actually maybe don’t, cuz you might do us all a solid and wipe out the world’s population of gnats & mosquitos.

xo!
