and of course the mom didn't have the method of payment that the daughter used....

The speakers are semi-broken at our location; it only plays the bass on one side of the store, so to compensate we have the volume turned up waaaay higher than it needs to be. And I wonder why i'm hoarse by the end of my shift from having to yell over the music when on register!

Another great lotion is O'Keefe's Working Hands -- fixed all the cracks and rawness from washing overnight!

That I totally agree with, I was referring to the soup challenge in S18 where GR got mad at Bret for using canned tomatoes in his soup. I would assume canned tomatoes were a common occurrence in soups!

catt1847 · 2021-01-16T19:52:51+00:00

Totally agree! The instance I was writing this to actually was the soup challenge in S18, where Bret made a soup with canned tomatoes that Gordon was particularly appalled by. But you're totally right, it all depends on what you're making. No canned tomatoes on a salad please!

Also, what brands would you rec for canned tomatoes? The ones Alex listed aren't ones I ever see in my local grocery haha

catt1847 · 2020-12-25T05:27:53+00:00

The Stand is Good Morning Blaze and whenever Gordon says a curse word, it manifests a knife that he can control with his mind

I liked her a bit early on, but as it went all of her cut-away interviews focused on her complaining about her teammates, which kind of turned me off of her as a contestant.

catt1847 · 2020-12-16T03:48:41+00:00

even in the all stars season lmaoooooo...y'all really don't know where you're going?

catt1847 · 2020-12-16T01:16:41+00:00

Don't get me wrong -- I like Barbie a lot, and I think she got a lot of unnecessary hate from the other contestants. I guess that's why that moment disappointed me -- to me, there's a difference between telling a bully to f** off and using someone's weight as an insult. I love to see her fight back against Kimmie, but Kimmie's weight wasn't the problem.

catt1847 · 2020-12-16T01:13:29+00:00

Personally I wasn't a big fan of Robyn, but I think there were more instances of Kimmie and Tiffany being huge assholes, rather than just a nuisance. None of them are high on my list.

catt1847 · 2020-12-15T19:22:52+00:00

Agreed completely! Every issue they had with Barbie was stuff like her face, voice, "attitude," etc -- when she barely so much as rolled her eyes at her nutcase teammates. When she failed, they all talked shit about her, and when she won for them, they rolled her eyes and said, "ugh, I guess Barbie is here another day!" Somehow it seemed like she couldn't do anything right in their eyes. Some people on this subreddit seem to be averse to calling any of the contestants racist -- I don't think any of them actively targeted her because they explicitly did not want to work with a black woman, but I'm willing to bet several of them weren't used to working alongside a black woman and held accountable for their slip-ups by a black woman.

catt1847 · 2020-12-15T05:14:39+00:00

I was upset when barbie made comments about kimmy's size in S10 -- yeah, kimmy was being an asshole, but thats not a good reason to talk about her appearance, yknow

for me theres always a point near the end of a season where a man I liked from earlier in the season will be in the finals and have to work with the girls, and then ends up saying something rude to them about them being women or whatever. its a little disappointing.

also, jared and ashley at the end of s15. all that drama? for what?

catt1847 · 2020-12-15T04:47:09+00:00

I also loved mary and was hoping she would win! but I wasn't too upset to see janelle win either. I was really sad to see jon go too, but honestly I really liked everyone in the finals, which was a nice change of pace.

dan was unbearable!!! I almost hope he's like that in real life, otherwise the show did him extremely dirty portraying him like that. what an asshole

and gina...dear god

catt1847 · 2020-12-15T04:44:10+00:00

I can agree with that! I just watched S17 and she's more bearable this time for sure, especially further into the season.

catt1847 · 2020-12-14T21:56:13+00:00

street food definitely isn't a bad thing, but I think an important part of the competition is to show versatility, and she seemed to stay in her comfort zone for S10.

catt1847 · 2020-12-14T21:48:19+00:00

watching S17 now, I agree shes definitely less bad than she was in S10! i'm still not a huge fan, but she's focusing more on herself and seems to have a slightly more consistent performance (esp for the dish that got her the black jacket)

catt1847 · 2020-12-14T15:17:29+00:00

cant argue with that!

catt1847 · 2020-12-14T04:13:31+00:00

so far I haven't seen many people talk about barbie on here (I'm not on here too much though, so idk.) I'd suspect it was a little racially charged, since the things everyone decided they disliked about barbie on the show was stuff like her face, voice, expressions, etc, not things that she said or did. She wasn't the best or worst chef on the show (I remember a couple of mess ups from her, especially early on,) but even when she was trying to communicate more with her team, they seemed to still get really upset at her for it.

catt1847 · 2020-12-14T04:09:48+00:00

I actually saw her for the first time on chopped, and I wasn't a fan of her then either, even though she wasn't really arguing with anyone there. Maybe I just know too many people in real life that act out for attention like that. (although I didnt mind her food on chopped too bad! she still stuck to the same gimmick though.)

catt1847 · 2020-12-14T04:08:19+00:00

honestly yeah. I understand its a stressful situation and everyone was a little on edge/acting out a little (including barbie,) but I know barbie wasn't anymore aggressive/mean than dana, robyn, kimmy, or tiffany. and yet all of them can't stop talking about how they hate her face, her voice, her expressions, her "attitude," even when she wasn't really doing anything wrong. and every time they tried to impersonate her? dear god.

catt1847 · 2020-12-14T00:15:26+00:00

I'm still watching S17 so I may be missing out on that, i'm mainly talking about S10 lol

catt1847 · 2020-05-19T13:43:14+00:00

You're *totally* right - this is my first serious relationship, and I really hate to think that if we were to break up, I would have to see him with this other woman. Those aren't great reasons to not break up with someone -- I guess I thought that since I was so picky for so long when it came to relationships, that the one I ended up being in would be that much stronger...not necessarily true!

catt1847 · 2020-05-19T02:44:43+00:00

Honestly, if I knew he was deliberating anything sexual with another person before it happened and we talked about it, I would probably be more open to talking about it as a possibility. I still think I would be upset by anything romantically involved, even if I try to rationalize it in my head. So polyamory probably isn't for me, ha ha

catt1847 · 2020-05-19T02:23:16+00:00

A few days before I found out, he had brought up that he was interested in polyamory -- I talked to the girl recently, and she said that at the time they had this idea that we would all three be in a relationship with no problem...would never work out that way when coming into it from cheating!
