What are everyone’s thoughts on this guy? I keep seeing these new commercials with him about a new home fashion line he designed - and I keep occasionally flipping through and landing on his show Extreme Makevoer (which makes even ME teary, but do NOT tell anyone!) I used to be a little skeptical of him but now am starting to come around - and the red bedspread in his commerical is actually pretty good looking. But he’s definitely on the up and up - thoughts?
He annoys the hell out of me, despite my very limited exposure to him. I’d like to stick that fork he spent weeks designing through his eyeball.
I always wonder how much EMHE spends per episode on Vaseline pulling that bullhorn out of his ass…
see - he used to just have far more energy than I could take - but I gotta hand it to him - he’s been successful. despite the fork thing - the rest of that stuff looks okay - a female friend of mine was showing me some Us Weekly spread on his stuff (he’d done some celebrities room) and she was raving over it. Granted I like design so I entertained the thought - and whether it’s my taste or not and whether or not I would enjoy his personality around him - I’m impressed with his success on his show etc.
Your post did make me snarf my beer though…lol! 
Seems to me that anyone with enough hair gel, a soul patch, and no pride whatsoever can be marketed into an extra 30 minutes of fame, just like ol’ whatshisname from that show about the thing. You know the one I mean?
And why in the hell does it take “weeks” to design a fork? If you needed to attatch a motor to it, I can understand. But it’s just a fork dude. Took you two weeks to design? Your 13.5 days overdue.
Apparently, shouting “BE A FORK!!!” at a lump of aluminum through a bullhorn for a few days doesn’t do the trick.
I could watch him when he was the ex-slacker-ish, kind of nutty, “here build this” guy on Trading Spaces. He reminded me of some guys I knew.
Now he just seems like a show whore. I can’t stand him.
I just don’t understand why people think he’s so good looking - he’s very average, really. Slightly goofy face, spiky hair, good body, obnoxious soul patch - frankly, it’s easy to find better looking guys in real life.
He’s pretty, but dumber than a box of rocks.
I could not agree more Seven.
I am no longer a fan of the show whore either.
Ugh, yes. I’d like to take a pair of tweezers and pull that thing out, hair by hair.
I’d do 'im.
Saw some of his new home stuff at Sears yesterday. $219 for a summer weight bed comforter, Queen sized. It didn’t look or feel any different than reasonably priced ones.
Please tell me people aren’t really buying this stuff just because he’s on television.
I think he’s a hottie, but he’d have to agree to wear duck-tape over his mouth if we were going to spend any time together.
Obnoxious beyond words.
His lame attempts at being funny are enough to make me want to ram a fork through his head.
I kinda like him. He’s cute and funny. He can stick that bullhorn up his ass, though.
At least I did before the other day. He was a call-in guest on a local radio show here in Houston. He was nice and friendly, and he pushed his line of home stuff. Then he said he had to go! After barely three minutes talking to them! I’m sure his “people” over-scheduled him, but jeez! How rude.
He’s a cutie, but he knows he’s a cutie, which is annoying. The EM:HE persona is also annoying, but I can believe (hope) that it’s just a persona. And I completely agree that the soul patch has GOT to go.
And now I have to figure out how to get Diet Pepsi out of a keyboard…
(I was going to make a joke about his initials being “TP”, but I couldn’t do it… :()
Put that one on a tee for you, huh?
Y’all are cracking me up bigtime.
Was the comforter really that expensive? The stuff I looked at online was pretty reasonably-priced (I looked up that red bedspread that I mentioned I liked…) - I don’t think he’s going to be making some overpriced PotteryBarn type crap do you?
