[FINFAN]

....this is a WHOLE LOT BETTER than talkin' about Ben whats-his-face...

Just think of Ben and his bangs had a tat of an eye inside his elbow...I'm thinking he's a contender...

NOT!!!!!!!!!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

I still haven't seen part one - DH hates it and we were promised an episode of Cake Boss on the Disney Dream (no DVR right now) so I skipped it, then there was no DD cake boss anyway, so DH grumped off to bed and I watched the second half, with wine in hand, as always

From what I saw, it's all about the Courtney Meow-fest - I think she is the *****iest one ever. There's a tagline for you - "This week on the Bachelor, we'll have the *****iest ***** in Bachelor history!!!" I think Emily is in way over her head without anyone to really back her up.

Oops! I've been *****ed. Sorry.

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Courtney is a bit evil, no? What a witch. "I was just there." "I can reach higher than anyone." She's there for the fame, no doubt, and she's "winning" (OMG) and he's falling for it--hook, line and sinker." She's "winning" and he's the weiner. Oh law......

They go skinny dipping next week? Let'im have her! I'd be flying home if I was dumb enough to stay this long. Gah, he is so ugly and has no personality.

I heard that - I wonder if Ben did? Reminds me of the hair twirling girl on SNL - "Yah, I've been there....I've been to every continent, so..." "I can reach higher.. I can reach up to 12 feet - I once touched a cloud, so..."

Yup, I think if he ran off skinny dipping this early in the game, I'm calling a cab.

Blingly? I mean, Blakely? Oh there she is...dang, the girl can STOMP!(Was it just me or did it look like Ben was *holding* something as he trotted into the water with Courtney?) ha ha haaaaa...must be my mind, but that looked funny.

Protecting the family jewels, or flacid jewels?

OMG, is that a real picture of him?? Hilarious! He looks like a nerd from the 80's. He was probably creating the perfect girl on his computer in his bedroom like that movie "Weird Science".

Breaking news!

The next Bachelor has been announced

Its going to be the most prehistoric rose cermony evah!

We need a smiley shooting wine out his nose...

does she seriously know how stupid she sounds saying "winning" over and over again?

i'd also be flying home if i were there and he went skinny-dipping with anyone, but especially her.

i really don't think he's attractive. but i think a better haircut would help a little. he looked better during the finale of Ashley's season. for me, it's that his personality is so dull on top of everything else. i mean, give us SOMETHING ABC. if he's dull, at least let him be a hottie.

Does she think "WINNING" is a popular phrase? I'm pretty sure it brings up some pretty negastive connotations of a certain Pathetic loser...

I've been lurking on this thread since the beginning. Can I join in?

One thing that bugs me about Courtney- when she says something, her beady eyes automatically dart around, like she is making sure someone heard her.

Emily though... I was on her side, but she kept making the "rabbit nose face" and she lost me. Every other word she squenched her nose to one side or the other. Like a bunny.

I don't know what it is about Ben though. He has nice eyes, and a nice smile, but when you put them all together it doesn't work. Kind of like putting whip cream on cotton candy. It is just not right.

Fun to have you here! Your comments are so descriptive!

...I couldn't see it either - all that OIL blinded me....

I couldn't look


Oh, and the most exciting announcement ever! Emily, the next re-cycled Bachelorette - I'm sorry if they win once and can't make it work, they shouldn't be dragged back in - there is just way too much baggage.

 

[Kimberle]

Is there a spoiler thread where we can chat about the "winner"? I don't want to spoil it here for those that don't want to know...

 

[Robinrs]

....TWO can play at THAT game...

That's the one I wanted to post-- my sister sent me that one in an email.. the subject: WOW!!

 

[Robinrs]

Nice jump rope. I wonder if he's interested in a game of double-dutch .

I swear... I didn't even NOTICE the rope!!

 

[MELSMICE]

Well, DD's & I finally watched last night. I'll say that even though I don't find Ben my type of guy physically, I'll admit that I think he's sincere & honest with the girls. I know it's edited, but for some reason it drew me in when I watched it that he might not be so bad........lol!

As for the Courtney vs. Emily thing.......I'm not a huge Emily fan but I dislike Courtney even more. They should team her up with Bentley from Ashley's season. She comes across as a real snake, IMO!

I do agree with Ben though (& Courtney) for that matter........I have never understood why some of the girls think it's their "duty" to inform the bachelor how some other girl is not there for "the right reasons". If you get alone time with the guy why do you want to talk about some other girl(s)?

I like Kacie so far (can't remember her last initial) but she's the one with the dark hair. I'm sure it's edited so that when she doesn't get a rose within the next few weeks we'll all be "devastated" that he didn't choose her.

 

[kimmar067]

I swear... I didn't even NOTICE the rope!!

...but you DID notice that he's sportin' a mighty fine...















































watch.

....when I hear
Courtney', I'm thinkin':

....STEPFORD MODEL!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

I don't even think she's as pretty as them ( if you could call it that)

She looks like she could be a model for a goth website or something. Those eyebrows are like Elvira! Like Forrest Gump says, "Pretty is as Pretty does!"

 

[MAGICFOR2]

I'm just going back and watching Rachel's date - I don't think I've seen a more awkward or boring date. "nice." "yes." "romantic." "yes."

Ben is scratching his head, doesn't know what to say next.

Oh he doesn't see it in her actions? He wants her to strip and jump in to the lake?

So because she said she doesn't open up he thinks she opened up?

Fishing:

The look on Courtney's face - and now she'll act like she's into it

I don't even remember seeing Samantha any time - you would think if she was too emotional it would have made some interesting TV

I think Ben and Kacie B make a good couple - I know - I'm a sap

OMG - Courtney is such a little game player and he falls right for it - she's trying the hurt puppy routine - what a snake! Oh the smug, "I got the rose look!" What a b***

Kacie B: Sometimes you can wait years for a love like this.... Like what? For you to wait around for attention and then watch him kiss someone else after just making out with you?

Sorry, I know this is old news to all of you, but I just had to vent.

 

[3prettyprincesses]

I'm just going back and watching Rachel's date - I don't think I've seen a more awkward or boring date. "nice." "yes." "romantic." "yes."

Ugh, that date was textbook awkward. Yet I couldn't look away! She was very dull, much like Ben yet he seemed to find that endearing? Aw, isn't it sweet, she's completely closed off. That should make for a great relationship, yes? Um, no.

Ben is scratching his head, doesn't know what to say next.

He's not the sharpest tool in the shed, is he? Or should I say he's not the ripest grape in the vineyard?

So because she said she doesn't open up he thinks she opened up?

Ya, I didn't understand that either. I think he just thinks she's attractive.

Fishing:

The look on Courtney's face - and now she'll act like she's into it

She was ridiculous on that date. Little Miss attention grabber. Ugh, women like that are in their own world where they're the star of their own little universe.

I don't even remember seeing Samantha any time - you would think if she was too emotional it would have made some interesting TV

Me neither. I thought his treatment of her was very classless and rude. He kicked her to the curb because he heard that she wasn't there for him. Um, he's keeping trashy no lips Courtney even though Emily was trying to warn him.

I think Ben and Kacie B make a good couple - I know - I'm a sap

I like Kaci but I don't really care for Ben. I think she could do better.

OMG - Courtney is such a little game player and he falls right for it - she's trying the hurt puppy routine - what a snake! Oh the smug, "I got the rose look!" What a b***

Yup. She's something else. The world revolves around her. I'm losing even more respect for Ben since he keeps choosing her.

Kacie B: Sometimes you can wait years for a love like this.... Like what? For you to wait around for attention and then watch him kiss someone else after just making out with you?

Agreed! I don't think she's cut out for this type of show at all. I think as the season progresses, she's going to have a meltdown when she realizes Ben is hopping into hot tubs (and mouths) faster than lightning. Really, isn't that what every woman is looking for in a future spouse?

Sorry, I know this is old news to all of you, but I just had to vent.

Vent away. There's plenty of fodder for it, that's for sure.

Could you imagine their life together? They would bore each other to death!

He's not the sharpest tool in the shed, is he? Or should I say he's not the ripest grape in the vineyard?



Ya, I didn't understand that either. I think he just thinks she's attractive.

Yup. Thinkin like a man

She was ridiculous on that date. Little Miss attention grabber. Ugh, women like that are in their own world where they're the star of their own little universe.

WINNING!!!

Me neither. I thought his treatment of her was very classless and rude. He kicked her to the curb because he heard that she wasn't there for him. Um, he's keeping trashy no lips Courtney even though Emily was trying to warn him.

She pissed him off cuz she questioned the Super Stah!

I like Kaci but I don't really care for Ben. I think she could do better.

I was just thinking about the same thing. She's going to be another Ashley on Brad's season - she'll be too needy and he'll dump her if she doesn't leave first.

Vent away. There's plenty of fodder for it, that's for sure.

Thanks for listening See you tomorrow night!

Aren't we all waiting for a love like that?

 

[MAGICFOR2]

No problem.

In related boring Ben Bachelor news, here's what he had to say regarding last week's episode and why he chose dull Rachel over who the heck is she Samantha:

http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20564100,00.html

One of my favorite parts of this article is how his explanation of sending Samantha home was due in part to what other girls told him about her. Hmmm, so I guess he picks and chooses who he wants to listen to then. Emily was chastised for calling out Courtney yet he heeds the advice of other girls when it came to Samantha?? Good job Ben.

And in other news, here's Monica's take on why she left and her thoughts about Ben and the show:

http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20565320,00.html

Love how she says that Ben and Courtney deserve each other since they're both so shallow! And that Ben doesn't deserve Kaci B. either.

Hmmm, so I guess he picks and chooses who he wants to listen to then. Emily was chastised for calling out Courtney yet he heeds the advice of other girls when it came to Samantha?? Good job Ben.

but, but...Courtney is a hot confused model. She is a (semi) celebrity, that must mean she is awesome and wonderful. The other girls are just jealous. Duh!

 

[kimmar067]

....OMG!! I've been to ALL those places they've been to SOOOO many times!!! Me encanta la isla! ES LA ISLA DEL ENCANTO....
