"We have trust issues." Mylar

Awww, I love Yul! So, so good for him.

I really do not understand how Christopher and Logan are still hanging on. I'm not a huge Nicholas fan. I still have scars from that hooker outfit with the lace stirrups that he made. The horror! But honestly, I didn't have much of a problem with his outfit last night. True, nothing about it said Greece, but I agreed with awesome guest judge Milla Jovovich that the shirt was really pretty. I didn't even mind the pants. That detail on the leg was interesting. And it was well made. Unlike whatever that was that Christopher sent down the runway. The sleeves were a disaster. The skirt went from way too long to way too short. And here I must disagree with awesome guest judge Milla Jovovich because I thought the belt was fug. And nothing about it said southwest. Logan's wasn't bad, it was just boring. Like all of his work this entire season has been. Bah. Bad judging last night. Tim thought so, too. The PR boys have a great post about how over it all Tim seems this season. Tim Gunn is tired of your bullshit. Hilarious.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

OMG I laughed out loud at work and snorted tea UP MY NOSE.

"You. Lesbian. What's this?"

I think that the belt was what saved him. Sadly.

Why? Just, why? I heard Milla going on and on about the way the leather was interlocking or some such nonsense, but in my head, it just sounded like, "Fug fug fug belt fug fug fug interlocking fug fug."

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

The PR snark is flying. Loved this on TWOP:

"The contestants are released from their cages and let free in the wilds of Rodeo Drive with the promise of working with a world-famous designer. They are all excited until they realize it is just stupid old Michael Kors. Tim pretends it is all huge and exciting, but doesn't manage it very well. Then Michael makes the designers all look at his vacation slide show and tasks them to design outfits around his amazing super awesome life that they will never have."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So... that was just a kindness when Phil said, "You're last to arrive and have been eliminated from the race," right? I mean, wouldn't they have been eliminated for not completing the tasks?

Oh, wait -- when teams have forgotten steps, they had the chance to go back and make them up, as long as they didn't come in last after all that, right?

Because books.

She completely psyched herself out. I mean, I sympathize, since I have climbed back down the ladder from the high dive, but she just wound herself up past the point of no return.

I'm undecided how I feel about the Globetrotters. I like them a lot, and no one helped them with the briefcase, and part of me feels like, hey, it's not as if they changed the outcome, and it is a race. Then again, it seemed pretty clear she wasn't going to change her mind in those two minutes, so it was pointless to say those things.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I have no problem with the Globetrotters doing what they did- it was the adrenaline of the last minute reprieve, I think.

YAY Globetrotters! I am also relieved that Canaan did not actually shove his girlfriend down the slide.
