When Lisa said they wouldn't be in Italy long because she doesn't like the food there and it's "too fresh," I momentarily morphed into Meredith. That's just crazy talk! I want to spend 85% of my time in Italy eating all the delicious food.

Heather is ridiculous
I don't understand why Britani is a thing

heather is projecting her righteousness from the monica situation last year onto bronwyn and it's so transparent. i think bronwyn is using her eclectic style & decor to mask how tightly wound she actually is, but i do like her a lot & think she is a great new addition to RHOSLC. her vulnerability w her daughter & that situation was wonderful to see. bronwyn was obviously ultimately in the right with heather & with lisa, but i fear she may burn too hot too fast. excited to see where the season goes

i get why seth creeps people out, but i actually don't mind him as much as justin who i can't STAND even before the mob wives party - his nasty plastic veneers, his stupid gucci clothes, he knew exactly what he was doing by inviting the osmond loser over to angie's (although that whole scene was A-1 cringe & i screamed)

I have mixed feelings about Justin at Angie's party because he was definitely a shit stirrer for inviting the Osmond guy (I would never invite another guest to someone else's party) just to put him in the same room with Brittani BUT I was rolling my eyes at the other husbands claiming that they had a pact not to get involved in their wives' bickering. Lisa is the one who involved Justin. She charged over, got in his face, and started yelling at him about how his wife was a liar.

Justin's response ("Don't call my wife a fucking liar") was not the aggressive thing that some of the other people were trying to make it out to be. I found it much more aggressive that John then immediately jumped in physically and yelled at Justin for "using the F word with his wife." If I recall correctly, Lisa was just yelling the same F word about two seconds before so as far as I'm concerned, turnabout is fair play when it comes to using the word FUCK.

Lisa started that shit with him, and he just told her not to call his wife a liar. She kept getting in his face. I’m so over Lisa, she’s ridiculous and not even in an entertaining away.

I used to be ride or die baby girl Lisa and now I’m like nah. It’s sad. Worst break up ever.

I like Bronwyn a lot more than I expected to

a lot of why heather is the way she is, is that

a) she was the "ugly duckling" growing up and probably has a complex about it - that's why she had tons of work even before starting housewives, and continues to get a new face & now body each season

and b) she grew up mormon for REAL so she is still indoctrinated to suck up, to make nice, to be in the right by showing how selfless and giving she is which is ultimately self-serving. she always talks about how she "always shows up for her friends" but we rarely ever see it, with whitney for example - with jen, she was so manic that she basically demanded heather to be her emotional support

[tigermilk]

I think she takes it further than that, though. After Jen’s arrest, there was a power vacuum and I sincerely think Heather thought she would step in as the head bitch in charge and fan favorite. The problem is no one fucking likes her because she’s messy and unlikable, and not even in the fun way that some HWs get away with

Heather let the success of the show go to her head. You can go back to the season one reunion and all the seeds of where we are now are there.

[sassandthecity]

Meredith, Lisa and Heather are clearly in an alliance that started when they banded together to make sure Monica didn't come back. That alliance is doing more harm than good for them currently because they are all so poor at defending each other.

The way the audience continues to fully turn on Heather is entertaining. Why she is even still on this show post-black eye gate and tried to implicate production was the one who punched her is beyond me.
