So, North Korea and Cuba actually offered—or maybe they just sent?—aid to the USA
😂

And then you've got these Maoists over in India and Nepal declaring a total unification, basically vowing to fight side-by-side to push socialism and communism through both nations... ☭

Wait, didn't Mclusky totally burn out last year?

hollowseal33 said:Why didn't the McLusky group just go all out and blow everything up?

I mean, I'm pretty sure they officially put it in writing within those first two weeks...

A mere 16 horsepower 😢

They offered, if I recall correctly—either way, it’s actually kind of wild.

gentlepuma20 said:My current top 5 candidates from George Orwell's Big Brother:
1. Hamdi
Matthew.
Ren.
Reality TV cast member
Reality TV character.

The absolute worst television programming ever produced. Hands down.

George Orwell's Big Brother.

Good grief, I find Sunday morning church services more captivating than this.

gentlepuma20 said:I think they offered it, as far as I know. Regardless, they all gave it their best shot, and honestly, it was pretty entertaining.

My current top 5 candidates from George Orwell's Big Brother:
1. Hamdi
2. Matthew
3. Ren
4. Beatrice
5. Reality TV character

Mine:

1. Matthew from Monterey, a man who practically breathes sunshine and sea air!
2. That sensual blonde girl
3. Mama Beatrice—she’s actually triggering my maternal instincts, and I'm worried she won't fit in with the rest of them.
4. That blonde from the coast; she looks like the only one who actually showed up with 🙂 intention.

Anti:

1. Hamdi, mainly due to those valid suspicions regarding point number 3 (he's got great potential).
2. Ren, just a total nightmare. 🙂
3. Whoever it was that kept faking that high-pitched female voice last night.

Ren is an idiot... I've heard enough stories about him to know...

Right? I’m mostly just hoping for tons of sex and violence this season.

Pure blasphemy...

Sean Lee7 said:😲
pure blasphemy!!!!

Yeah. You wouldn't want to play golf with those eyes of Jelena Veljaca either.

Carol Jackson45 said:Yeah. You wouldn't exactly want to play golf while being stared down by Jelena Veljaca...

I'd rather go boxing with half those people. Even if they were tied up and I was wearing horseshoes in my gloves. But that's not the point. The point is, the series itself is valuable...

dmj said:Not even one in French??? 😲

since they aren't repeating any, except maybe Bonjour Quote 🙂

Carol Jackson45 said:gentlepuma20, welcome back

muchas gracias! 👋
if you'd seen the villa, you'd know they treated Jelena Veljaca pretty harshly—almost like they just took advantage of her.

The top 4 most pointless oral exams in psychology:
1. Psychology Practicum IV
2. Psychology Practicum III
3. Psychology Practicum II
4. Psychology Practicum I
🙂

Carol Jackson45 said:Yeah, right. You wouldn't exactly want to hit the links for a round of golf while being stared down by those eyes of Jane Doe's, would you?

Honestly, the absolute worst part for me is when certain people (and there are quite a few of them) try to compare me to her!!!🙂
It’s always like: "Oh my god, Joe, you are just like Dorothy from that soap opera!!!"
Or when they draw parallels between me and Tora Spelling... 😲

So, here we go with a brand new list—People I would much rather NOT be compared to...
