1. I also hate Mike. It's like we're the "We hate Mike" club.
2. Couldn't stand the mispronunciation of ceviche either.
3. Sad the Keller came in 3rd but SO HAPPY that Bayless won!!!!
But if the world doesn't end, I'm gonna need a note.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
The one-two "Top Chef" punch last night was fantastic. Very happy for Bayless, whose food just looked and sounded amazing. And I'm looking forward to the new TC -- the new cheftestants look farely competent and interesting so far, although I do hope Misogyny Mike goes fast. (They're starting to call him Top Misogynist over on TWOP. That is a man who will NOT have much of a fan club when this is over.)
