Top Chef Las Vegas 8/26

Keeping it short again, since there are far too many contestants and dishes to really dive into things.

- I'm no opponent of gay marriage, and I know this is Bravo, but Ashley was laying it on a little thick tonight with the "I'm bitter because I can't get married" routine. And it's a little funny how she and the other lesbian were singled out as having two of the Elimination Challenge's worst dishes. Take that, gays!

- Saw Eve's exit coming a mile away. I found her voice annoying anyway.

- Bryan looks like he has a broomstick perpetually stuck up his ass.

- Who pairs a dish with a shot?

I Like the Cut of Their Jib

Woofer, the anti-Twitter website that mandates all entries be at least 1,400 characters long. It's a one-note parody website but the idea made me chuckle (the posts, however, not so much).

Top Chef Las Vegas... eh, whatever

No power rankings, no in depth-analysis (not that I've done any so far, anyway). Heck, I don't even know these people's names. There's Pale Chubby Beard Guy, French Guy, Douchey McDouchington, the Jew, etc. It's a fools errand talking about the first episode of a reality show like Top Chef because half the fun is talking about the contestants and their personalities, and we hardly know who these people are. All I know is that this slate of contestants has more ink than a Bic factory.

That said, I'm glad Stretched-Out Earlobe Lady got booted because I can't stand the sight of those things.

Also: none of the women have been outed so far, but I'm guesstimating that two of them are totally gay.

RICK FUCKING BAYLESS, BITCHES

Yeah, I'll Say It

I'd bone the creepy pale Palm Pre girl and I'm not ashamed.

And I Can't Get It Out of My Head

(One of these days I'll write something more than a few sentences long. I swear, I'm practically on Tumblr.)

I Do Loves Me Some Mad Men

There's no point in me trying to analyze the new season of Mad Men. There are other (real) critics out there and they do a much better job. But I can do my part and pass this on, for anyone who missed it last year.
