Does Tana remind anyone else of Jenna Elfman, from Dharma and Greg?
Tall, perky, upbeat, big toothy smile?
Near as I can tell, a lot of us post over there. And yes, it’s the same MamaTiger. A lot of the others I don’t think have the same screen names.
Rysler, it’s from every man’s favorite holiday, the upcoming Steak & Blowjob Day. It’s Monday, March 14, so be sure and mark your calender.
I used to post over there, but living on the west coast, by the time the show was over it would take an hour to read all the posts and then there was nothing else to say. 
Great, my birthday is Steak and Blowjob Day. Too bad I don’t eat steak or have a penis!
I think they’re taking the week off for NCAA basketball.
Way to go, John. From a mortal lock to a loser in one day. I maintained from the beginning of the season that you were the de facto winner. I chalked up last week to personality conflict and a necessary amputation. Then, in the first ten minutes of the show, I lose all respect for your abilities. Your disrespect and open contempt for other professionals and colleagues made you deserving of dismissal, even if your performance didn’t. What an ass.
:o
I think there was a lot of fallout on Chris that was edited out. It looked liked Trump was getting ready to fire his ass.
Until John opened his mouth.
It’s something I made up. It’s basically the idea that, while each and every person on this show will screw up or make a mistake and likely have it shown, for the ones that do well in the end those mistakes will be minimized. Sure Bill was shown as a little controlling. Kelly was shown as a bit take no prisoners.
But, compare that with them showing Chris as a randomly yelling tobacco chewer. Or Shrimp Stacy from last season coming off as a non-stop talking know it all.
Basically, if your editing ever really shows you as a buffoon, you have no chance. Goes double if you have some kind of honking horn music behind you. Trump won’t be picking someone that has served as comic relief or as an examply of continued idiocy. That’s why Chris has no chance and Stephanie is teetering. Too many bad moments.
I call this the Tubas of Humiliation. Don’t ask for whom the tuba honks, it honks for thee.
I think Tana is doomed because of the Corollary, actually – too much mockery from Carolyn (i.e., any at all), a very awkward line about “Black and white” in an interview, and extended silliness attempting to be “street.” I happen to love her and root for her, but I don’t think she has a hope after last night.
Even Erin has serious Corollary issues with all the shots of her rubbery facial expressions. The editing always captures her mugging at key moments, and I think she has no chance to win because of this. Could be Final 2, though, and definitely in Final 4.
Angie smokes, Bren thought up the cucumber commercial, and Alex is just meh, plus he is a white male. All my money is on Kendra to win this thing.
I’ll agree with that, except I think Erin still has a shot (as much as it pains me to say it). I fully expect a final 2 of Kendra and Erin. But Kendra looks the strongest. Of course, so did John about 3 weeks ago.
Well, I think it is almost a slam-dunk that a woman will win it.
Can someone tell me where this comes from? I wish to celebrate and feel I will need proof of its signifigance to show my G/F.
Thanks. 
This site was slightly enlightening.
Can someone tell me what the deal is with the whole you’re-shown-smoking-therefore-you’re-DOOMED thing? Is it somewhere in the rules that smokers can’t win? Is it an editing thing, akin to the tubas of humiliation?
Hell, I live on the east coast and usually can’t get there quickly enough to add anything of merit. That board moves quickly.
[I am dgorman there and on TARflies, by the way).
Thanks Rysler.
Just be aware that Steak and Blowjob Day is often celebrated with enthusiasm directly proportional the enthusiasm you showed for Valentines Day. Lots of guys get a nice card and maybe a burger from McDonalds.
IIRC Trump has a Yoooooge problem with tobacco and alcohol. He’s on record saying he’d be extremely disappointed with his own children if they ever decided to even TRY alcohol; don’t know if tobacco would also apply but I can guess it would.
I don’t think this means you can’t smoke if you’re going to work for Trump, exactly, but I do think it means if the editors have decided to show you with a lit cigarette in your hand, you are doomed.
Speaking of chaw, if we were, does anyone else notice Chris’s facial twitchiness all the time? It’s practically at Maria levels. He constantly does this thing with his mouth and nose that reminds me of an anxious bunnyrabbit. Presumably it’s the lack of a soothing plug in his cheek.
