If you have never had the pleasure of hanging out with a sociopath in real life, this article gives you a nice taste of what you have been missing out on.
The difference between post-grad sex and college sex is that post-grad sex requires a bit of effort. Music during sex isn’t the problem. Playing “Sexual Healing” during sex is the problem, because it isn’t just cheesy, it’s a lazy move. You have to dig a little deeper, you have to be a little creative, and you have to find music that is actually sexy. Otherwise, you are going to be remembered as that creepy ex who always wanted to do it in an otherwise silent room.
Apparently the volleyball date went down the tubes after Vanessa threw a fit, and the Bahamas week was completely uncomfortable because Vanessa ended up in a screaming match with Rachel (Rachel’s response to Chris’ question about what she had to say to the happy couple was telling- good luck to Nick, zero mention of Vanessa). It’s always interesting when everyone in the house hates the winner. Sometimes they show it (Courtney), sometimes they don’t.
Oh yeah, and it’s going to be a disaster. She’s given him many chances to realize that she’s not looking for a d-list celebrity husband, and that she’s not going to be happy if he is the least bit torn about picking her over some other woman, but he apparently hasn’t noticed. He must be totally blinded by love or fear, because he should have sent her home long ago.
That would be truly amazing, but it might break the show, much in the same way as Bachelor Pad was done in by an ending so spectacular that it could never be topped.
My guess is that there is some sort of federal judiciary rule that prevented Rachel’s dad from appearing on the show. Maybe accepting ABC’s gift of catered dinner at your house would be improper? (And I would bet that he won’t be going to meet the final two next summer either, for the same reason.)
I had to look it up. According to Reality Steve (no spoilers ahead) Vanessa and Rachel had an epic screaming match at some point during the Bimini stay, which they decided not to air because it didn’t fit the narrative of the season. The majority of the girls took Rachel’s side, and Vanessa basically stayed in her room for the rest of their time there.
Where was Vanessa during the last three quarters of the episode? All season she’s been draping herself all over Danielle, and then when Danielle comes to say goodbye, she’s gone. Food poisoning? Heartbroken and crying in the bathroom? In her own diva suite? I’m sincerely curious.
I will forever be a greasy north-of-the-border-style Mexican food smothered in green chili and a pound of shredded cheese hangover kind of guy, but I will get behind Pho as the ultimate lingering cold cure.
At some point in the 90s, Sports Illustrated actually did a swimsuit issue spread on hot local weather girls, and Denver’s own Kathy Sabine was featured. It was a great day for 13 year old me when that one came in the mail. (They should really make that an annual feature, although I think now if you are the hot news woman who wants a little national buzz you just go on the Bachelor.)
Nick is 36. Speaking as a (nearly) 36 year old, the idea of dating Corinne just seems exhausting. He’ll keep her around for maybe one or two more make outs, but she’s going home soon, probably in dramatic 2-on-1 left behind in the windswept wilderness fashion.
Vanessa, on the other hand, knows what she’s doing. That line about “I wanted to meet you because I saw how close you were to your family, and I’m close to my family” was a straight-up rehearsed job interview answer, and it worked. And calling out Nick rather than Corinne not only won over every woman in America, it made him know that he has to work for her, and frankly, dudes like that.
I prefer the accidental method. Buy some apple juice for one recipe, and then just forget that whatever is leftover is in your fridge. One to two months later, discover the bloated jug that kind of fizzes when you open it. You got hard cider.
I will admit that I was all about Corinne when the bios dropped, but it’s apparent that she’s attempting to win this thing by going full Courtney, and something tells me that Nick is less susceptible to the “holy shit this hot chick actually wants to have sex with me” game than Ben was.
I’m not getting a Britt vibe off of the wedding videographer. The promos suggest that she is the one who spills the beans on Liz and Nick already having had sex, and I admit, that was the vibe I had on her even before the promo aired.
My feeling is that it’s realistically down to Rachel, Vanessa, and Danielle.
10. Did the writers not notice that they gave Audrey her last line roughly half way through the movie? I’m not making that up- the last line Juliette Lewis speaks in the movie is some time around the house lighting scene.
11. Whose idea was it for Beverly D’Angelo to be giving Clark a OTPHJ when the police bust through the windows? I’d like to think it was improved, but how did Chevy Chase keep a straight face?
12. I can’t be the only person who thinks that Ellen Griswold is a total MILF, right?
Corinne is a total smoke show who likes Frasier, so she’s definitely making it to the fantasy suite episode. That said, she’s another one getting tattoos removed, which suggests that wanting to date Nick isn’t her first questionable relationship decision. And I suspect that her “internet business” is a lifestyle blog, and her main objective for going on the show is to get more followers.
I usually buy a bottle of Havana Club as soon as I hit the ground in Mexico. It isn’t top shelf stuff, but it makes a decent daiquiri or Cuba Libre, and the fact that it is (or was) illegal to bring the bottle home gives you a good excuse to finish it by the end of vacation.
“No one wants to be named after a fruit or a Syrian rebel group.”
Yeah, I was at a family gathering a few weeks back and met a 8 year old girl named Isis. And sure, it sounds funny. But when you see a kid sigh and get ready to hear the same jokes and give the same explanation about being named after an Egyptian goddess any time someone asks her what her name is, your heart breaks a little.
Luke seems like a real stand-up dude, and I appreciate his service. But lets face it, at this point in his life, he’s an aspiring country singer looking for his big break, and that’s why he was doing the show.
Nick is a no-brainer. He knows at this point that he’s never going to be anything more than Bachelor famous, which I think is good. And can you imagine how much fun they are going to have making up promos that make it look like he gets rejected a third time? It’s going to be amazing.

Kids today will never know that sound that those balls make when someone gets hit hard enough to leave a mark.
I’m in pretty decent shape, but I’m still sure that if I attempted to play any of these games today, I’d end up blowing my knee out. PGP.
