Toolbag Wednesday #23: The Hills (sans LC)
Wednesday, September 30th, 2009To those with no understanding about which I write today, I salute you. Carry on…
I need an intervention. A Hills intervention. Someone (preferably Dr. Drew) please pry the remote from my fingers and change the channel to…to….
See, that’s just it. There’s absolutely nothing on the TV on Tuesday night. MTV got wise to it and moved the show from Monday, thus maiming my benign intent to casually ignore it for The Rachel Zoe Project instead. Alas, foiled again.
There I sat, dead-eyed and mouth agape, watching my maturity wane as Kristin Cavel-whats-her-name threw down with (perpetually upward gazing) Audrina approximately 4.2 minutes into the season premiere entitled, “It’s on Bitch.” It turns out, the title stems from what Kristin yells at Audrina after an ill placed spat over resident vagrant, Justin Bobby.
It was at that point that I muted the TV (baby steps), opting instead to call my Mom and indulge her affinity for telling me what she’s “eaten” throughout the day (a yogurt, four carrot sticks, 2 liters of water, a banana, oatmeal, and a boneless skinless chicken breast).
Sigh…I miss Lauren. She finally decided she had enough, had outgrown life on the show. I’d like to say I’ve outgrown watching it, especially since she’s “graduated.”
Now, if only I can remove the season pass from my Tivo. Tricky, very tricky…
This is a guilty pleasure for me too. It’s so bad, but it’s soooooo good. I cannot, for the live of me, understand why anyone would want to be with Justin Bobby. “Resident vagrant” is dead on. When he cuts the shaggy, dyed (?) hair then he grows the weird gray/brown beard.
oh ill shamelessly tune in every week.
last night? i even sneakily got the manfriend to watch too.
i know, im insane.
I agree, I miss Lauren. There is no balance now with Spencer’s douchebaggery. Although I do like evil Kristin.
I have to say, I did go back and watch the rest of the episode. And hated myself for it. NEVER again.
I used to reallu like Kristin…when she was on Laguna Beach. I think she was better as the “narrator” than Lauren.
Sadly, I think I’ve merely given up The Hills for The City.
