sorta weak, but I wanted to be the first to link to the drinking game:

::insert obligatory “I just spit iced tea all over my monitor” joke here::
When I told my 15-year-old daughter that her father had “field-dressed” his deer, she got a slightly quizzical look and said, “What’s field-dressed?” She knew it didn’t mean putting an Abercrombie & Fitch camouflage hoodie on it, but wasn’t quite sure what it was. I told her and she promptly replied, “Oh, that’s just nasty!”

I just wish they’d given them a truck with a manual transmission.
I just watched for the first time tonight. This show is 100% set up. They got into the hot tub at the dairy farm. Who takes a bathing suit to their first day on the dairy farm?
I will continue to watch though. Paris is yummy.
second show was definitely better.
They made them work!
Spilled milk!
hee hee
I liked the fact that Paris can drive, specially since I don’t.
Heck, I would’ve been tired also after the dairy farm.
Loved the father quote:“Stay scared of me, but I like you 2”.
Here I was thinking she resembled him.:eek:
Hell, I didn’t even watch this show and was in horror when I saw that the website had a message board already in full bloom.
After the initial “what do u means” I was reeling.
God help us all. Look what they’ve spawned! A Paris Hilton FAN CLUB message board! (faints…)

Sig line! Sig line!
Soooiee, pig, indeed.
U of A graduate, here. I have to admit, I wasn’t enthused about them Hawgs when I went there, but strangely enough, I care how the team’s doing this year. Maybe it’s because they don’t suck.
Hey now, my parents graduated from the Arkansas State Teacher’s College. In fact, they met at the campus BSU. And yes, it was back when it was a teacher’s college. And my father is one of the smartest men I’ve ever met. And I’ve met a few bright ones.
As for the show…I just can’t bring myself to watch it. I’d feel too sleazy afterwards.
Why are Paris and the Richie girl always holding hands, rubbing fingers, or sleeping on one another? Any Psychiatrists here? Is this a result of being neglected by their parents for 22 years? Or do they just “feel more” than the rest of us yokels?
Most folk’ll never lose a toe and then again some folk’ll, like Cletus the slack jawed yokel
Bob55, I’m a 17 year-old girl and it has been my experience that many teenage girls/young women do that. It’s just a kind of close friend contact - nothing sexual, and certainly not rooted in neglect.
Poor Tink almost didn’t live through being babysat by the Littlest Farmhand!
I’d think the drinking game would be a shot every time Paris says, “I’m gonna diiiieeee.”
Well, I tried watching it last night and has to quit before I suffered from terminal embarrassment. I’m all for bad mouthing the well-to-do whether they earned it or not, but in this context I gotta give the girls a break. When they left for work in their country gear I about died–they were the perfect mirror image of Jethro Bodene; or better yet, Somali rebels fighing in evening gowns because they didn’t know that the gowns were women’s wear, nor that nobody wears formal clothing to combat before 6 pm.
To see them jump into a different world without practice or training was quite uncomfortable for me. I had to change the channel when they started topping off the milk bottles with water. There are lots of people who in a similar situation might do something bad to avoid dissapointing a boss. Yeah, it was wrong, but not unreasonable for two young and inexperienced people–especially considering that until a few hours before that Paris, at least, wasn’t even aware that unpasteurized milk was fit for human consumption. It was just too embarrassing to watch.
Ah, well. I liked that the idea that people have to work for a living makes Paris sad. At she’s right about something.
Oops. That should have been Liberian rebels.
Heh, I think it’s pretty funny. And while I do agree that the girls come off prissy, selfish and stupid, there are things on there that I would have been alarmed at as well.
Plucking chickens–I probably would have tried to do it, but I would have been pretty disgusted.
Arm up a cow–self-explanatory
The well in the porch–a little strange
Bugs in the bed–whoa
I think they just did the two extremes–rich girls, and people who really are minimalists. That’s a pretty small house for so many people to share.
I find it hard to enjoy as much as I expected. Certainly, they seem to be every bit what I think of them - lazy, foolish, vain (amazing how much time they spent applying makeup to work on a dairy farm) but it doesn’t seem like a fair contest. I have a hard time hating them as much as I want to because god knows I’d never survive on a farm either. I’m not rich, I’m just a lower-middle-class city boy who would have been exhausted and useless trying to milk cows too.
That doesn’t excuse their horrible work ethic, or their general idiocy, or their shallowness, but I just wanted to watch them be humiliated in a more fair contest.
Yeah, I won’t be watching anymore. I was so disgusted by what little regard they had for the dairy farmer I actually lost sleep over it. Hiding the bottles in the hay so they’d have less to fill? Sloshing non-filtered/sterilized water into the milk so the bottles would “fill” faster? That’s not funny! Somebody is paying for that and probably going to drink it and maybe even get sick.
If I was the dad I would’ve said “Why should I like you? You’ve done nothing but act like stupid, spoiled brats with no respect for anyone since the minute you got here!” The mom is too nice to them. “They’re trying so hard to fit in.” They ARE?!?!
I also like how they were supposedly SOOOO TIRED from working all day at the dairy, but then decided to sneak out after midnight just to piss off the dad, whom they’re supposedly so scared of. Please. Where do they think they’re going anyway? I assume to meet up with some of the guys from the BBQ.
I’m sorry I’ll miss the bits with them in the Sonic costumes. That will be the most flattering outfit Paris has worn to date. (She looks like one of those old-time beach chairs that cartoon characters are always wrestling with.)
Same here. I lived in Fayetteville for five years in junior high and high school, and got so sick of the whole football/fraternity thing that I went to Hendrix in part because they had neither a football team nor a Greek system (when I visited Arkansas this summer I snagged a “Hendrix College Football: Undefeated Since 1961” t-shirt). But over the last several years I’ve found myself watching Razorback games when they’re on TV here in Atlanta and checking the paper on Sundays to see how they did.

I was only pretending to be offended. After all, given the thread topic, a little snootiness seemed appropriate. And I was hoping someone would rise to the bait.
I agree about the hot tub scene being a big red flag. And really, the dairy farmer guy left them alone long enough for them to go crazy and spill gallons of milk and start filling the bottles with water and hiding the bottles? This is the guy’s business. By then they had already proven they’re unreliable and out of control and he’s just going to keep trusting them? I say no way. Not that I won’t keep watching it, but I don’t think the producers are even trying to pretend this is 100% real. Actually, that may make it more entertaining!
