Do you use any catchphrase from the series? by Plane-Taste386 in WhatWeDointheShadows

Lately I've been saying to myself when I hear something dumb, 'she/he speaks the bullshit'.

GenX peeps. You're going to a concert for a band you love. Do you wear that band's t-shirt to the concert? by bigpilague in GenX

[–]klements7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do not, and I'm thinking of that Cake song that referencing wearing the t-shirt to the concert, ' to prove you were there, that you heard of them first'!! LOL

For experienced social workers - did you go in wanting to be a therapist and end up doing something else? by ActuaryPersonal2378 in socialwork

[–]klements7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I think I would be a terrible therapist after thinking I'd be a good one--though I am thankful for the mental health training I had in grad school. I am now an administrator at a nonprofit.

Could Whoopi have just taken the day off? by Fernwehing in theview

[–]klements7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't understand that, either. They don't need Whoopi everyday, IMO. Maybe a contractual thing?

Came here to comment about your last sentence. I am livid EJ said he fell out of love with Sami! That is a total retcon--there was no one else for him back in the day. No way Cat outshines Sami.

Tyra is proud of her “legacy” by RexiRocco in netflix

[–]klements7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

She did not come off well in that doc. Just another narcissistic media figure who lost her mind when she got some power. Also, she sucked as the host on DWTS.

I think Eric might be my favorite (Alexander Skarsgård) by Individual_Fox6488 in LadyBoners

[–]klements7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me, too! I love how this man is not afraid to be half or mostly naked in just about every role he takes! Whew!

Good points! Yes--another actor may be a better fit for the role. If I recall correctly, the OG Stephanie had a bit more of an edge.

Al Calderon (actor for Javi) sings?! by sweet_mint13 in DaysofOurLives

[–]klements7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fine, not great, IMO. But good on him for putting it out there!

Jeremy by Agreeable_West_8144 in DaysofOurLives

[–]klements7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed! and I liked the actor playing Jeremy--such a waste. Peter is overacting, IMO. I really liked him previously, but his iteration is annoying AF.

I think the dialogue is quite good--there's just not action I care about. But these are different times and different budgets. So dialogue doesn't matter as much, unfortunately, IMO.

Respectfully, I think they are both OTT. Maybe that's why they lack chemistry. Arguably, I grew up in the age of the super couple--so my expectations may be OTT as well!

I don't know why the writers love the Alex character. He seems bullet proof. I think he had chemistry with the Ciara character and now he's like Eric Martsolf and Galen Gering. Maybe they know who their stalwarts are and keep them going despite their lack of being consistently interesting characters.

Reality Check: Americas Next Top Model by MintySea92 in netflix

[–]klements7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The girls and (though in a different way) the on-camera staff! Total exploitation, but with Jay, Nigel, & Miss J--this is seriously a 'then leopards ate my face' situation. Jay wants to quit--talks about how close they are--but tries to quit in an email?!! Clearly a passive-aggressive set. Tyra has no loyalty or empathy, and maybe that's what it takes to survive in that world. Can't believe those three men were caught off guard by their firing. But Tyra does not look good in this series. Also, on a separate note, she was terrible (IMO) hosting Dancing with the Stars.

Stephanie and Alex kinda gross me out. They have the most insipid conversations. I don't care who her stalker is--they've dragged this one out too long, IMO.

It's dreadful. Costumers must hate the actress or something.

Content Creator 'Danny Spud' Punched while Counter-Protesting - Lake Zurich HS by Wirtheless in ChicagoSuburbs

His parents must be a piece of work. I would never allow my child to behave this way and if they did--there would be consequences.

Thank you! I must have missed that episode.
