For those interested, further discussion on the use of the word “cunt” on this message board is taking place in this thread in ATMB.
Welcome, Hyacinth! I will try to remember to pronounce your last name “correctly.”
Since you did not post at TOP, I’m hoping you “feel free to buy as many as you like!”…errr…to post often, here.
Keurig Alert! “Final Presentation!”* RUN TO YOUR PHONES! Lol. Must be time to recharge the Keurigbot. And colors are selling out, so get 'em while you can, cause when they’re gone, they’re gone for the holidays!!! :eek:
*Thank gawd.
She does love to touch herself.
Get ready, Snarkers. LaLisa is wearing a Zunino on Friday. Well, she may be wearing it. She apparently just got it and it doesn’t fit. She took it to a tailor, but she “doesn’t like anyone to handle a Mark dress”, so if it doesn’t work, she has no idea what she’s going to wear for her farewell.
I took a look at all her Christmas decorations and there’s no way in hell that she did all those things by herself. Just the swags she has everywhere are so ornate and complicated that it’s got to be commercially done. Seriously, her place looks like a Hollywood set design. One of her trees is so totally covered in ornaments that you can’t see one bit of the tree. No freaking way did she do that herself, especially knowing that’s she’s been doing her farewell tour of lunches and dinners in NYC.
Just a little.
Well, one question might be, it doesn’t fit because…
a) It’s her correct size and fits as it should, so she can’t get anyone to “handle” it by agreeing to hack an expensive designer dress down to an ill-fitting XXXXXXXXXXS?
b) It’s so small on her that she can’t even lube and squeeze herself into into it no matter how hard she and a team of “stylists” try?
Enquiring minds don’t really care, just look forward to snarking on the end result.
For those new to the game: LR is a small woman, but has a penchant for stuffing herself into toddler sizes. So the end result is that she can barely breathe or walk, and it just looks all around silly. Especially on a self proclaimed fashion expert.
If this dress belongs to MZ, why does she have the option of tailoring it? I think this is just another made up scenario to keep the hangers-on hanging on.
I’ve been saying for a month that there’s no way she could do all of that department store style decorating herself - no way. How could she do three 9-foot trees and all of the other stuff? Obviously done by a professional crew. But she is so disingenuous with her fans that she leads them to believe this stuff, and they (probably thousands of them) believe every word.
The thought occurred: does she have to be out of Q Village by a date certain??
So popped over to the other channel, who knew, people prank porn call shopping channels, hmm, that was funny
The Leghumpers will believe anything.
Did you guys see Mrs. Magoo, on with Rick selling Ripka?
So, what’s your take on Laura Geller?
Thanks to Beauty Taint

Laura Geller is the one who advised Lala to draw her lipliner straight across her cupid’s bow. This created one of Lisa’s nicknames - rectum mouth
Laura can be a bit heavy handed with the makeup, on herself, and on the models.
I have to stand up for Laura Geller. Her makeup is one of the few things on the Q that I regularly buy. It works for me and my middle-aged issues better than any other product I’ve found.
That being said, yes she can be a bit heavy-handed with the product…probably a result of her background in the thee-ah-taaaaa. I’ve found most makeup folks who get their start there have some difficulty dialing it down for the regular folks.
I like Laura, she reminds me very much of a friend from college days in personality and she was an absolute hoot and an excellent friend. I’m guessing Laura is both of those.
Still very snarkable, of course, but aren’t all of them? (OAPs, hosts, etc.)
Yup. Pretty much what both Honey and stillownedbysetters said wrt Laura Gellar. I actually use a few of her products and like them. I think she seems like a sweet and ‘fun’ lady. Apparently puts her makeup on in the dark, and I wouldn’t let her within 20 feet of me if she had a makeup brush in her hand but, otherwise, she’s OK in my book.
Oh, Grater time. Has she stopped to take a breath since she’s been on? Never mind, I know…
FYI - A mod will be making the glossary post a sticky, any time now.
Good work, Honey and Beauty Taint.
What a nice comprehensive list. I’m sure we’ll think of more as time goes by, but that certainly gives our new friends here an excellent starting point.
I like Laura Geller and some of her products. Her stuff is about the only thing I buy from the Q anymore and even then it’s only if they are having a special on something (like the supersized Spackle). Otherwise, I wait until she has her semi-annual 30% off sale on her website, with free shipping over $50.
In case you guys haven’t seen it, Ed Zotti, who is founder of this message board has clarified the rule about using the “c-word”. The bottom line is that the moderator twickster made a mistake when she scolded some of you in her official capacity. That word cannot be directed at another poster but its use is not forbidden.
The official post is here.
Ah, Kirsten presenting jewelry with Ripoff on the Q now. Any takers on whether or not she’ll brag about selling her husband’s wedding ring from his “starter wife” again?
Thanks hajario.
