Trust my rage

I really like a lot of UB, but the fact that a few people get these cool gifts doesn't sit well with me. I'd so much prefer to see policy changes or something. Because the way it is now, people who get lucky, even if they are vetted, are basically getting a gift for being on TV. I like when they end up in mgmt training or something similar but 10K for a wedding? I didn't like that, even though I liked the guy.

Because books.

AI: One question. Who let Miley forget her pants?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Drag Race -- It seems a little unfair to send Jessica home on the challenge about language. Not that her LSFYL was good.

Oh no! I can't believe I spoiled myself for that. I love Jessica!

Oops, sorry.

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

No, the LSFYL wasn't good, but on the whole, I don't disagree with her being in the bottom. She was kind of blowing it all the way through. The language, sure, but there was also the lack of creativity with the cover concept, the dress at the end which, ick, and the fact that she seemed TOASTED during the interview. I don't think that was her intention, but she looked really, really drunk.

But gain, it comes back to the LSFYL, and I've only been watching the show for a few weeks, but I'm pretty sure Ru starts them at a clean slate there. (Thus, JuJu surviving last week.) And that one was all SORTS of wrong.

Miley Cyrus and Pick Whatever the Hell Song You Want, We Don't Give a Fuck theme night? I'm skeerid.

Why do they even let Randy talk?

I don't. It's not Ru's fault that English isn't her first language. Plus, she was drunk at the interview and her cover concept was bad.

Did JuJu get anything for winning the mini challenge?

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Lee Dewyze/The Letter - Good song. He could do some interesting things with it. Why is Miley naked? Why is Lee wearing a ratty wool cap in LA when it's been like 80 degrees here lately? Weird arrangement. What's with the Big Band stylings? I don't like how he's Buble-ing it up. And this is so not him. He seems really uncomfortable. Rather more so than less. On the plus side, his voice sounds really good and he seems to have conquered most of his pitch problems. And he's still boring as spit. No charisma. No star quality. He just sinks into the background. I think I was watching the band more.
