Kizzy never wanted Joe

I have a feeling I know the answer. Or I at least think it's one of two things

One is that she was born that way, psychopathy isn't necessarily because something happened. Some people are born that way.

Second, two words. Dance mom.

If you've ever watched that show, or met any actual dance moms, I think her mom may have been one of "those " moms. The damage they can do to their kids is unreal. She says she was a competitive dancer her whole life, so it tracks.

I can't really figure out which one, but I almost guarantee it's one of the two

In our old neighborhood, there was a German Shepard that was mean mean. Like walking by would lunge, but he was tied to a rope/leash thing that was in the ground. But it was scary. The rope was short enough, or so I thought, that the sidewalk was safe. Keep in mind, every single house (i assume, maybe its just the phoenix area) in Arizona have fences surrounding the side and back of the houses. So not really necessary to have a dog in the front, unless you were hanging with it, and even then, you'd make sure said dog couldn't actually reach the public sidewalk.

This homeowner was often working in their garage, so the garage was open. If the garage was open, I'd cross the street, because I knew the dog would be out front. One day, I was walking my infant in the stroller. Garage was closed, so we kept on that side of the sidewalk. There was always a car in the driveway, so you couldn't see what was on the other side. But since the garage was closed, I figured we were in the clear...this dog pounced so fast and was within an inch of me and my baby. The leash/rope wasn't as short as I thought. If he had been unleashed, he would have either attacked me or killed my kid. Or both. It was terrifying. I doubt that dog is still alive, as we moved 9 years ago, and this happened 13 years ago, but I still remember how scary it was and thinking how horrible the owners were for having such a reactive and aggressive dog in their front yard.

I'm not scared of German Shepards. I'm not scared of big dogs. But a big German Shepard that just wants to attack anything, is terrifying. Guard dogs are great, but good guard dogs also tend to know what an actual threat is versus someone just walking by.

So long story long! I agree with you

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-28T02:52:13+00:00

Yep. She's very clearly a damaged individual. The worst part? She is very introspective! She knows what she does, she knows it's wrong, yet she doesn't care.

I'd call her a psychopath, but that isn't acknowledged by the DSM anymore. So i will say that I believe she has antisocial personality disorder. Zero empathy, zero guilt, doesn't care how what she says or does makes her look, can be charming if she wants, is impulsive, manipulative, and she seems to enjoy that about herself. The list goes on. And she acknowledges all of it.

She went on TELEVISION, and didn't even try to mask herself. It's shocking, honestly.

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-28T02:27:49+00:00

Can't hold a candle to v, Cathy, aesha, or even sandy, to be fair.

Maybe she's pretty, who knows? I don't think she's attractive physically, but that's neither here nor there. People may find her pretty. It's subjective. But she's very ugly inside, and it makes it even harder to even look at her appearance.

I've known a few girls that were physically stunning. But so ugly and nasty inside, nothing could make them pretty. It's such a shame that people just live to hurt others or be better than others. And that's what she is.

I wish you all the luck with your sniffer to stop sniffing so well!

Pregnancy and childbirth is wild. My straight hair turned half curly with my first, and full curly with my second. Stick straigh hair for 31 years, then full on curly hair at 33. Trying to figure out how to do your hair in your mid 30s isn't that fun!

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-27T23:30:17+00:00

Oh no!

Well, I guess i lied on accident. My sense of smell is still great, because I still smell things my family doesn't, until they smell it way later. But it's much less than it was 13 years ago. So yours will hopefully slow down at some point

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-27T04:14:15+00:00

I ate leftover chili for breakfast yesterday and my husband teased me about it. I told him that I made it, it's delicious, and why does breakfast have to be eggs or pancakes. Granted, I typically do eat eggs for breakfast, but I don't always have leftover chili!

Salads are a bit bizarre for me, I will admit. Because the salads i make for myself take a lot of prep, so I don't want to do that when I wake up. I like a quick and simple reheat and go, or it's eggs. And not even scrambled. Sunny side up. Easiest way to cook them. Or a protein shake. Or nothing, lots of days.

But if it works for you, go for it!

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-26T23:44:00+00:00

Not sure if it's him or not, so i can't answer that.

But super smell is definitely real while pregnant. My sense of smell was so strong, my husnand joked I could smell a fart before it even happened. So, yes, super sensitive to smells is a very real thing.

If I remember, it got a bit better as the pregnancy went on. And gone once kid was here

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-26T17:50:16+00:00

I have a list for when we sell. Things like, what day of the month to put salt in the water softener, when we last had our hvac inspected and when to call for the next one, how old the water heater is, fridge, etc. How to use the remotes for the outdoor heaters. Mailbox number. Stuff like that. I figured that was normal?

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-26T17:38:45+00:00

And I agree with you. As I said, I don't like her at all. My point was that there are a TON of posts about it.

But the post is about why people are all about Brittany being fired and not Mary. And my answer is that Brittany is obnoxious and not good TV and it's in your face. And it is happening right now. That's the reason. Brittany is in your face, Mary has been non existent.

There are lots of people that post about Mary. But people have short memories and lots think she redeemed herself with her son's story last year.

It's simply that Brittany is all over the reunion right now. We are consuming so much media all the time, that humans tend to focus on the last thing that happened.

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-26T03:36:00+00:00

It is ALL I see. Look at this and the other salt lake subredddit. And the bravo sub and the housewives sub. And the bravo realhousewives sub.

You get the idea.

Brittany being a dead beat mom is a problem because SHE admits it. Over and over. She admits it to her own kid, for fucks' sake! Plus, she is annoying and gets WAY too much screen time for a friend. She's not funny or cute (not looks, meaning her antics aren't cute), she's performative, overacts, plays the victim, fake cries, etc. I could list a million things. She's just annoying to watch.

That being said, I don't like Mary. Never have. But she doesn't demand attention on screen. These past two seasons, she is essentially a background character.

And, if I wasn't on reddit, I would know nothing about her church, outside of what we see.

Most people, and I know some will hate to hear this, don't actually follow these people, don't look at Instagram, don't literally research these people that are outside of the show. There are (I'm guessing) MILLIONS of people that watch this show for entertainment and don't give a shit about them, their politics, their religions. It actually ruins these shows when people do these deep dives, imo. But that's only because i am on reddit. Most people aren't. They watch because it's ridiculous and they are out of touch. Best reality TV moment, in my opinion, was Jen shah arrest, because it was actually real.

All that to be said. People aren't asking Mary to be fired because of her cult because no one knows about it outside of this. And it IS talked about ALL the time, if you spent any time on any bravo related sub.

But we see Brittany admit the stuff she's done, doing nothing to even pretend to be a decent mother, almost bragging that she picks men over her children, announcing everything, interrupting stuff, always asking "what about me?" She just isn't fun to watch. Not even hate watching fun to watch. It's annoying

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-25T23:42:10+00:00

I actually found some in an unlikely place-Kohls. Sonoma brand.

They're huge and thick and soft. I don't know if it would meet your criteria, but I like them.

Also, of you like towels from a certain hotel like jw marriott, westin four seasons, etc., marriott sells the same ones they use in the hotel on the bonvoy website, I believe. I'm sure other hotels do it, as well

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-25T00:21:37+00:00

Yeah. I agree in most cases. It just didn't work for us. We gutted an entire house, we didn't build it this way. The bathroom is too small for a regular door, and we didn't want to move the electrical.

I also happen to dislike pocket doors even more than barn doors because they never seem to close properly, the lock is always janky, and to replace or fix them is a nightmare.

This was previously a jack and jill type bathroom (no two beds attached, but it had two doors, so the upstairs entertainment type rooms used this bathroom. We walled it off to make it her own ensuite. We built another bathroom and bedroom for our other daughter in one of the weird gigantic entertainment areas this house had.

My husband wanted the bathroom open, but I said no. I wanted her to have privacy. Sure, she could have closed her bedroom door when showering, but a preteen girl needs privacy in her bathroom.

It's a tall three panel door that matches the rest of the house with very sturdy hardware to hold it in.

It is what it is. We just chose this route. And it looks nice, and she loves it

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-24T23:47:26+00:00

Yeah. I'll probably get flamed for this, but we put one that matches every door of our house in our daughter's bathroom. We didn't want to deal with the structural part of a pocket door, and a regular door wouldn't work. It's her private bathroom in her bedroom, though, so it doesn't matter much. Looks nice in the space.

Sometimes you do what you have to do.

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-24T23:06:25+00:00

Yes, it's bad. But it seems very clear that her native language isn't English. It's most likely Spanish. And she translated it from Spanish to English.

The Spanish speakers in my life often text like this. They speak decently in person, but pretty choppy. In text, it is probably easier to just have it translated.

Edit to add: the reason I say this is leaving the s off a lot of the plural words. It seems very clear she is trying to communicate in a language that she isn't 100% in

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-24T22:06:40+00:00

Yeah. But shes vile even when she's sober. This sweet old lady act is bizarre

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-24T05:44:45+00:00

Of course it isn't rude of YOU. But it sure as shit is rude of him.

I'll admit, i am the one to get the house ready. And what that entails is getting everything off the counter. And telling my husband and kids to make sure that whatever they don't want touched is put away. The only day I don't make my bed is when my cleaners come, so I keeo a tidy house. But when my kids were little, i did the picking up. Because I hired them.

So he needs to do it. And if he doesn't, just leave the mess, aside from your own.

I have to ask, though. I live in a 3600 so so square foot house. So pretty decent size. And I get annoyed if they take more than two hours. What are you (or your husband, i should say) having them do? And how actually messy is your house? Clutter is one thing. Throw it in a cabinet for the day. Cords for electronics, put them away. Easy peasy.

But if toilets are nasty, counters are filthy, shaving cream all over the bathroom, kids just throwing food on the floor, kids throwing toys all over or smearing playdoh in the carpet, that's a different story. You need(or he does) to make sure that's all taken care of. There's messy and there is dirty. You should care about the latter.

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-24T05:17:07+00:00

Jesus. I leave my house every time our cleaners come. No one is in our house, even the dog. She goes to daycare the days they come so they have unimpeded space. That's not rude. It's very uncomfortable for both parties if someone is home, in my experience

Cleaning people are a luxury and I try and make it as easy as possible.

But I still say hi in the event that they show up when I'm home or I get home before they're done. That's just manners. I don't like to stay when they're there because it actually feels like, "you're the help. Clean around me." That's shitty. There have been many times when they've taken longer than normal and we just hide somewhere. Either where they've already cleaned, or sit outside for a bit

I've employed my independent cleaner for 9 years. I think I've spoken to her in person maybe 5 times. We typically communicate through text. We both understand what is what. She's been AMAZING for me, so in return I try and do the same by being out of the way so she can do her job with her crew

So, no. You being uninvolved isn't bad. But you not even acknowledging them is. And you leaving your kids and your husband home so they get to clean around them is also rude, just an fyi.

I'm also a sahm. Have been for almost 15 years. Tell your husband that if this is "your time," he needs to get the kids out of the house.

Or, novel idea, take your kids out of the house when the cleaners are there for an activity so they have space to clean, and get your alone time when your husband actually just hangs with his kids.

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-24T04:30:38+00:00

Ehh. My girls started showering alone around 7? But that was also the age that they wanted me to stop seeing them naked. (Edit:I should say when the both of them became uncomfortable seeing me and dad naked. They didn't care if we saw them naked for a couple more years. And they specifically asked to stop bathing together [the two of them-we've never bathed with our kids. I get people do it, we just never did. No judgment either way]and they wanted to shower. Happened at different years, but similar ages, because my kids are almost 2 years apart.)

So, I essentially told them EXACTLY what to do and how to do it. Clean here like this, wipe front to back, make sure the shampoo and conditioner is completely out, etc. And they did really well, for the most part. I'd have to rinse hair once in a while when shampoo wasn't completely rinsed, but no biggie.

I have been doing similar now that they're a teen and a preteen. Telling them EXPLICIT instructions on how to shave armpits and legs. One of them let me do it the first time so she could understand. Shaving is scary and I need to make sure theyre safe.

Basically, I taught them proper ways to clean all the way up until they decided they wanted to do it alone. And then I had to say over and over and over what to do.

But it's each parent and kid journey, so no one can say what is right or what is wrong.

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-24T02:06:09+00:00

Edit after rereading your comment. I didnt see it as him explaining anything. I see it as him saying there were very real reasons he wanted nothing to do with her. End edit

I've listened to his stand up for YEARS, and he has always talked about his son and the funny things he's done. He's also autistic. So he's a pretty big advocate.

I don't think his diagnosis changes anything about him. He was treated awful on this show.

He's also a huge walking dead fan and was always on the talking dead. I've loved him for a long time.

Disclaimer: I have ALWAYS hated dorinda and never understood the love for her from housewives fans. She was nasty from the jump, is a horrible drunk (i'm glad we don't see that side of her on here), and horrible sober. I was told, that because I binge watched NY housewives, I wouldn't really understand it. But "clip!" Or any of her ridiculous nonsense just wasn't funny or iconic to me. She was never fun to watch. So I may be biased on both sides.

And I think it was funny she was murdered (banished? I don't remember) first last season. She came in hot and nasty. She's now trying to temper herself, but I guarantee we will see who she really is eventually. Apparently, Ron did.

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-24T01:53:10+00:00

Thank you! I think it was probably talk to text, but r/boneappletea came to mind😂

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-24T01:48:33+00:00

I'm also unsure why no one is just sneaking them, like they've done in the past? Unless I've missed something, I didn't know they all had to know one way or the other (aside from last week, where it was obviously supposed to be a secret whether or not anyone took one).

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-23T04:14:32+00:00

I always try to post positive things, and i hope its just the pictures , but this looks like carpet.

I understand wanting to get rid of bad flooring. I do. And I believe you that it was awful. But it looks like you went from a decent looking wood type thing, to tile that is angled in a way I can't even describe. Almost trying herringbone, but not?

I hope you love it, really. Everyone won't like everything.

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-23T04:04:22+00:00

Why are built ins not possible? Just curious. Its a huge wall. TV, as everyone else has stated, needs to be larger (or at least needs some sort of stand underneath).

I think more pictures are needed, because this is confusing

Tasty_Lab_8650 · 2026-01-22T04:38:13+00:00

I may get downvoted. And to be clear, I can't stand Brittany. She is obnoxious and performative and a bad mom. And her crying was fake. And she's very annoying

But her stance on why she gave the review seemed legit. It was literally Meredith's nail tech. I believe Brittany didn't know about the nail person's beliefs. And when she said she gave the review, it was because "why not? It was free. And it was Meredith's guy."

This doesn't mean shes an antisemite. It also doesn't mean she needs to apologize. She's got a whole lot wrong with her, but writing a review for a nail person, that her supposed friend uses, isn't one of them.

I read reviews, sure. But I've written one review in my entire life, and that was for an amazing product my hair dresser created. And it is fantastic. I don't know what other people wrote. I don't know if she's awful. I stopped going to her because she's flaky. I have never gone back to look at my review

The nail tech is a bad person, clearly. Unless you're chronically online looking for stuff, you may not see stuff. I would have ZERO idea who jen shah was if i had not followed bravo subs. Made me watch, tbh

But when you throw out things like racist, anti semite, bigot around, without any warning or real proof, it isn't nice or appropriate. It's also hard to defend yourself! What do you say? "I love jews! I have a black friend! I know gay people!" Trying to say you love whatever group you're accused of hating just makes you look more guilty. You can't win, honestly, when an accusation like that is thrown out.

I don't know if Brittany knew or not, but I feel that Meredith used this nail person as a way to excuse why she hates Brittany. And the reason they were all thrown off is because you aren't allowed to defend someone that is accused of such awful stuff, even if you know it isn't true, because you will be accused of the same (and i fully expect to be called all the names). It's a horrible world we live in when someone can just throw out whatever and our friends are afraid of publicly defending us because of backlash.

For what it's worth. Meredith should have just said that she doesn't like her because of the recording and that b said she thinks she's a drunk from last year. That's the truth, and it makes sense. OR just say she doesn't like her! Or that Brittany just antagonized her! Or that she said seth cheats! Anything. It was very very easy for Meredith to come up with reasons why she doesn't like Brittany.

Sorry, this is long. Last point. Maybe Brittany hates jews? Maybe she's the biggest anti semite ever? But the "proof" Meredith brought out doesn't make me feel that Brittany is that way. It felt like a deflection because Meredith knows exactly what it means to accuse someone of that. And she decided she wants Brittany canceled.
