Tim went off on Johnny after he sent him up to the workroom to pack up his kni--, er, get his stuff together. He couldn't believe that Johnny went into his bullshit story and told the other designers so.

Thanks Kathy! My dvr takes a long time to switch over to another channel, so if I tape back to back it usually cuts off. Since I'm actually eventually making a DVD for someone without cable, I think I have to just decide that the first minute of the Daily Show is not that important.

Awww! Wendy Pepper! How I would have LOVED to see a Wendy vs Santino rage-a-thon.

I liked Chris' dress (with the "feathers") I thought that it was going to win. I didn't hate the coat, but I thought that the dress was better. I think that she got the win because she'd done something besides a dress, showed a little more originality. The "shearling" on the cuffs and collar was genius.

I'm disappointed in Johnny. I mean, I've never known an addict who was not also a good liar, but there was no need to lie. He brought it up himself. There was no shame in saying "my first dress wasn't working, so I scrapped it in favor of this"

I think that Tim was PISSED that he lied. And in such a blatant fashion and in such a way that could clearly be disproven. I mean, who in their right mind would not think that Johnny wouldn't be sobbing and showing his ruined dress to everyone if that had actually happened.

I'm not saying that what's his name was not a COMPLETE douche with what he said about Johnny (though it was true), there was a better way to go about getting the truth out there.

Speaking of PR, Bravo is currently showing the end of Season 1! Kara Saun's shoe scam, Jay "looks like Buddha!", and Wendy Pepper. Ah, Wendy Pepper, the worst designer to make it to the final three, and the one with the biggest delusions of grandeur. She was so completely outclassed by the other two.

Project RunGay had the 10 best moments in PR and shoegate was one of the top. Also, one of my favorites, "It's a motherfuckin' walkoff!"

Nicholas is a douche because of the way he keeps putting down his competitors without showing that he can compete with them. The minute he can put out a winning, or at least top three, outfit, I'll let him get back to the being a diva, until that time, though, he's just a pretender.

Hee. "All of the sudden, I got boobies. and I was like, 'What's goin' on with the boobies?'" Gotta love Michael Kors.

Sure there was. They hadn't made a decision yet. They called him on how sloppy and thrown together his dress was, and he decided to say "the first one was awesome and tragically ruined so all I had time to do was put together this crap" v. "yeah, the first thing I made was crap so then I made some other crap."

It was a jackhole move, and doomed to failure from the get go. And it was kind of moronic in that the judges really don't ever buy that kind of thing, and if the Tim thing came up he's as likely to get called out for not standing by his vision as anything. But I can follow his thinking there.

Because of that, I'm glad he's gone. But I'd have been perfectly happy with either of those tools going home this week.

But he had already started that "the steamer ruined my dress" lie with his model the day before.

I will be just as happy to see Nicholas go next time, honestly. And they better stop picking on Gordana.

But he had already started that "the steamer ruined my dress" lie with his model the day before.

Yeah. Because he knew he had shit and was starting to lay the groundwork for a "plausible" excuse.

I don't know if you've ever encountered that kind of pathological excuse making in RL before but it was utterly (and unfortunately) familiar to me. You see it (or at any rate I've seen it) in people who are not all that, not willing to work hard at being all that, and yet totally invested in everyone around them *thinking* they're all that.

Right. And he's probably hurt his career with this. I mean, who would want to work with someone who makes these kinds of excuses?
