I think it's a shame that Elina is so bad at articulating her positions on things because I agree with her on a lot of points, to an extent (animal rights, not shaming sex workers etc). But she just doesn't seem to back up her assertions with anything other than "I feel attacked, why are you attacking me?" I just wish she was more articulate.

The redlight district competition was just tacky. I was watching President-to-Be Obama (knock on wood!) though for the first half of the show, so I missed it. But it was still tacky.

I loved when Jay was like 'Amsterdam is best known for its port and shipping.' I couldn't believe he said that with a straight face.

@freedc: It's also moronic since it's Rotterdam that's known for port and shipping.

I'm not convinced they were actually shaving each other. I just think that was McKey's insane close-minded way of being snippy and catty on camera. Bathing naked with ladyfriends, while in America may be a little more odd, seems to be a bit more acceptable in Europe. Akin to a hot-tub skinny dip session. Except smaller tub.

I spent the whole episode longing for Amsterdam. WANT. It's been almost 12 months since I've been and I'm going through withdrawl!

Also, I felt like a total nerd the whole time. "No, girls, turn left there, TURN LEFT-- Ok, nevermind, Dam Square is in the OTHER direction but whatever.." And I also figured out which house on the Herengracht they'd be staying in. I LOVE that house. I stare at it every time I'm there. And I stayed in a hostel not a block down from there one time.

GAH. These biatches do not deserve to be there. I deserve to be there. TAKE ME TO HOLLAND...

Oh sweet jesus the windmill backdrop... all it needed was clogs and tulips.

I just love American obsession with OMG LEGAL WEEDDDD! I ain't complaining, rappers are bankrolling our GNP.

Also, weed isn't technically legal, it's "gedoogd", meaning cops look the other way.

I want Analeigh to win now, because she's the only person in that show who doesn't make me want to murder someone. Everybody else can fall off the deck of a boat in the European seas and never grace my television screen again.

@xgurl3eb: Especially when Tyra and Co. always make such a big deal out of dressing in clean, simple, classic clothes (i.e. jeans, heels and tank top, hair pulled back, not too much makeup). And then they mercilessly mocked Sam and praised McKey for looking completely insane. I mean more power to McKey if she wants to looks like a Ren Faire wench but Tyra's inconsistency continues to baffle my mind.

Wait, what? They all got together and shaved each other? WTF? I can't believe I missed these shenanigans. Stupid family party/TIVO being stupid/aunt and uncle having nervous breakdown about Obama ad leading to them rampaging through our house in search of a TV.

@DixieCaverns: It was kinda amazing, I have to say. My mom wouldn't let them turn the TV while the kids were opening b-day presents, and so my uncle stands up and goes, "Come on, darling, we'll go see if they have a TV in their bedroom." My mother, obviouisly, was like, "No, please do not go our bedroom." So they fume a bit more, make some sotto voce comments about only having one TV in the house, and then, well, I guess my aunt couldn't stand it anymore. She got up- not at all a small woman, mind you- and fucking bolted through the living room like she was going for a touchdown, thundered down the stairs and burst into my younger brother's room and began screaming for his remote.

They then topped that display by asking another aunt to make sure to get a bracelet back from my suffering-from-Alzheimer's Grandmother that they had given her in 1982.

@Triphena: I don't know if they actually did any pube shaving. McKey says they did, but then she also wore her Ren Faire slave outfit to panel, so can we really believe anything she says out fo the side fo her mouth?

I have taken baths and hot tubs with friends. Not weird. Pube shaving is a little weird, but we don't know if they did it. And if they are having a lesbian loveaffair, Analeigh and Marjorie are the cutest couple of all time.

Every cycle, there seems to be someone in the top three that has no business being there and annoys the pants off people (Bianca is the textbook example of this). This cycle, I predict that it will be Samantha. Simply because I can't stand her and I think that Tyra has a personal vendetta against me.

weed actually *isn't* legal in the netherlands, but possession of a small amount (<5gr) is decriminalized. the cops could still bust you for it if they wanted.

@midnightecho: The marijuana laws of Holland are rather complicated, but since you are allowed to sell it, smoke it, possess it, and transport it in certain quantities, it may as well be legalized. And with a system that relaxed, the impetus to abuse it is greatly, greatly reduced.

@stoprobbers: Curiously, since the smoking ban became effective, you can now get busted in a coffeeshop for mixing your weed (perfectly legal, eh decriminalised) with... tobacco (perfectly illegal in a public place)!

Tis a quaint country indeed.

@Issit: Which is so weird to me, because when I was there about six years ago, most people brought their own rolling papers to coffeehouses but you could purchase spliffs there pre-made and they were almost always half tobacco and half marijuana. I wonder if they have stopped doing that...?

However, we have NEVER thought of shaving each others pubes! And No Touching (imagine that said in the prison warden's voice from Arrested Development). Its very mellow. These girls are reality TV cliches.
