Anyone watching Ben the Bachelor tonight? - NO SPOILERS PLEASE

[Magic Mom]

Let's start with hands down the craziest thing I have ever done in my life – climbing to the top of the Bay Bridge.

That's so sad and pathetic.

I do a Highlight & Copy of EACH one of my posts before hitting the submit button. It has become an automatic habit. I even do this with emails I am sending, even if the email program saves a copy.

This way, if there is a problem, I just have to hit the Paste button and all the info is there again. Between computer problems, faulty internet or web page problems, it has been a fail safe that has saved many, many posts I spent way to much time typing out. This way, the ONLY times I have had problems is when I forget to copy my post and lost all the info.

I should know better by now.

Not if you're looking for love. And hey, isn't that what this show is all about? Apparently climbing bridges or bungee jumping (another Bachelor favorite activity) are the catalyst for love. If they can overcome that, well heck, what can't they overcome?

Ok....last night was pretty boring....but i keep watching

I missed the whole tattoo thing. What was it???? You're making me curious. It must have been when I was FFW!! LOL!

 

[Imzadi]

The tattoo segment was at the very end, when they would have normally rolled the credits. I think they purposely waited till after the Rose Ceremony because it would have been a dead giveaway how gross her tattoo was.

And crazy eyed too, anyone else notice that? Crazy eyes, ugly lips, and bony shoulders. I'm not sure who she is modeling for but I'm thinking she isn't doing too well in the industry.

there are hand models, shoe models.....

Yes, wasn't it Brad who would encourage the girls to "overcome their fears" and tell them how proud of them he was if they did something adventurous with him?

Oh, is that the excuse you give?

....that's my story and I'm stickin' TO it....

I agree with you ladies that she isn't pretty at all, and I was shocked to see that she actually is a professional model and has dated a celebrity... she dated Jesse Metcalfe, the gardner on Desperate Housewives that Gabrielle Solice (Eva Longoria) had an affair with.

well I'll give credit where it's due...she does look beautiful in those photos~ and I probably can't even joke about photoshop, lol. I will say that perhaps the time between 2005 and now has not been positive for her? She commented to Ben about how she is not the Hollywood type..hmmmmmmmm...I'm gonna go with failing career needs face time on t.v. so I'll go on the Bachelor theory on this one (kinda what most of the girls are after)

 

[lillygator]

I haven't watched this week's yet but I think I'm giving up...it's just boring!

 

[MaryAnnDVC]

I think so too. I can't imagine she has had too many takers after putting Brad on the embalming table. They'd have to find her contestants who'd be willing to agree to having that in her life.

But having contestants who WOULDN'T be willing to have that in their lives would make the season so much more dramatic.

I really wish the show would be about trying to find a match for someone, and not the drama. I think that was sort of the original intent (well, trying to find a match for someone WITH drama, but now it seems to be ALL about the drama). But what I mean is...at least find girls who have potential to be a good partner. Like, when Travis Stork was the Bachelor...he's a super outdoorsy guy, and they had on girls who were "indoor" girls, hating camping? Why not have on girls who are at least somewhat "compatible"? Like, with Travis, if his thing is the outdoors, then outdoor girls (of which I would NOT be one LOL). Surely they can find enough lunatics for the drama that fit that scenario too, no?

Oh dear God, I'm trying to make The Bachelor a more rational show. Lost my head.

So I get all the past bachelor/bachelorettes and "contestants" mixed up in my head. They become one big nebulous rose seeking/giving group amongst the "most dramatic scenes" ever. Has anyone who has ever been F1 come back to be the bachelor/bachelorette before? I love, love, Emily, but I really think she needs to find the new love of her life in the more traditional way.

 

[MaryAnnDVC]

*yawn*

Ditto. Is she going to be making out with one guy after another? What about those overnight dates? I don't believe that EVERYONE has sex in the Fantasy Suite, but if she puts herself in the situation to suspect that's what's going on, what about her daughter?

Here I go again...analyzing the rights and wrongs of The Bachelor/ette.

Duh! I forgot about I read she was the next one! I have to say the most interesting thing to us about her was her connection to the Hendricks NASCAR family. Sigh....I think I am throwing in the towel too.

Jen. She won the season with ???? Firestone, and then came back and had a rotten outcome with whatsisname. Does that answer your question? lol
