Cause of course she is, when you live in Cali, you are thin and beautiful and you must be an actress.--I'm glad it's a thin person because I know how this series treats people that are overweight. And yeah, this goes beyond Norman Hill. It's cringeworthy or makes you want to throw something at the wall if treated obnoxiously beyond a passing reference

[bleeding_thorn2]

I fucking hated, HATED how these bitches treated Norman! Norman was awesome.

I love VC Andrews, especially her older stuff, the new shit sucks. I loved the Dollaganger series, the Orphans, Ruby, Rain and a lot of others though, the Dollaganger was the best.

I honestly refuse to read Dawn's Big Date anymore because of the Norman plotline. Talk about catching shit from every direction.

I saw the ghostwriter was coming out with a couple of diaries for Christopher while they were in the attic. I thought about buying them, saw some of the previews for the book and decided against it. http://www.amazon.com/Secrets-Foxworth-Christophers-Diary-Andrews/dp/1476790582/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1416875805&sr=1-1&keywords=christopher%27s+diary

I would be able to snark that shit if I was stinking drunk. Same with the one where Kristy thinks she can cure autism and Stacey in the hospital and her parents act like total assholes.

Fuck, I love the Dollaganger series and was excited about these.

Carol used a paper towel. The horror. The shock. What a crime. Why are they around the house then, if not to be used?

I haven't read this book myself, and I'm glad I haven't, because I probably would have thrown it across the room, or through a window.

You know Dawn, I get PMS too, but I choose to knit, rather than act like a heinous bitch.

[maryannespen]

See, I know towels to use and rewash are better for the enviroment BUT I have four dogs and a cat, so yeah, not sticking a pissy towel in my washing machine, tyvm.

[darth_firefly]

Exactly. I don't want to play the game of 'what was this stain from again?' when doing laundry either.

And as for eating Thai food with a fork - I was unaware this was such a crime.

[bleeding_thorn2]

I didn't even use chopsticks until I was twenty eight. And it was for sushi. No one cares what you use.

My mother was very anti-sneaking. Why? Because her theory was, if I was sneaking something behind her back, I KNEW IT WAS WRONG IN THE FIRST PLACE! A three day grounding offense would turn into two weeks because I had proven I knew what I was doing was wrong and she would be upset, but did it anyway.

If I were Dawn, I would've been grounded until college, and then my mother would've moved into my dorm room with me for an additional two years until I regained her trust.

[bleeding_thorn2]

I swear Dawn is Becky from Roseanne. And not the Second Becky from Scrubs, the original one that was in Boys Don't Cry. Sneaking around doing shit you know is wrong, but doing it anyway, cause why the fuck not? Only your feelings matter.

My mom would have slapped the shit out of me, and my dad would have sent me to boarding school. Plus he's a retired cop,so my ass would have been in a world of hurt.

[maryannespen]

Dawn never fails to deliver on the 'heinous bitch' front, does she?

I feel bad for Stephie! And...really pissed at her dad. My mother has MS, diagnosed when I was eight and it began to really progress a year or so later. My father had to pull double duty after she stopped driving and being able to go out a lot. He took me to get my first bra, my first school dance dress, lots of stuff like that. He's not flowery with the emtions, but for me he sucked it up and when it was necessary he put on the Mom hat. It's not like fathers are totally incompetent as parents! Look at Richard, he totally would've remembered shoelaces! But I guess he's just an anamouly in a universe where asking a father to watch his kids for an afternoon counts as 'babysitting' instead of fucking PARENTING. /end rant

(Yeah, I'm very close to my Daddy, so I take this kind of offensively. Dads totally can step up, Ann. Idiot.)

[design_star_21]

Your daddy is amazing, please tell him I said that!

[bleeding_thorn2]

Your dad is freaking Awesome! Richard would have remembered shoelaces, and socks and other things. Richard, I think was the best parent in these books. The only other adult that was kool was Mimi. Mimi was a fucking rockstar.

I always hated that the father had to be asked to watch his own damn kids. It pisses me off.
