tune in, turn out, throw up

things i learned from diligently watching america's next top model (no season in particular):

• some people cry after eating (and not because of indigestion)

• "aloof" is a tricky word. . . so tricky infact. . . wait, what was i saying?

• ghetto superstar and ghetto fabulous are not originally from the ghetto. they are from tacoma, washington.

• aerosol hairspray makes for an excellent bug repellent when roughing it out in nature. it also assists in starting your very own forest fire.

• 2nd place is not the first loser- it's worse. it's the girl whose name can never be remembered because everyone forgot to watch the last show.

• magazines are a form of literature. i mean really, look at all this body copy i have to read for a single evian ad.

• you say big is beautiful, i say i can't believe the plus-size model made it till the 4th show!*

*disclosure: i in no way agree with this statement that i thought, when i thought it- i personally found it very disturbing when the show even bothered to include a plus-size model in their last season, since it was OBVIOUS she was not going to win from the get-go. thank you upn for being oh-so politically correct and in helping me waste oh-so many of my brain cells.

next up: the trials and tribulations of the gilmore girls. which is actually one gilmore "girl" and one gilmore "woman" who annoyingly walks and talks like a girl.
