That Untucked was fucking ridiculous! I listened to their argument while trying my best to tune out the helpful soundtrack, and I realized these bitches were getting emotional over a fucking lion mask and a dress. WTF? Coco needs several seats, and Jinkx needs a to toughen the fuck up. Gurl, just don’t talk to them negative nancys.

I saw that the headline was “fixed” on this post earlier. But it’s still wrong. Should read “WREAKING havoc”. I hate to be that guy, but it’s kind of glaring right at the top of the page.

@Bob: As the person who wrote the headline, I promise I know the difference. It’s a pun. Because “reeking” is a reference to the way things smell, and this was a challenge about smells. Get it? It’s not a GOOD joke, but it’s a joke.

@Chris I am not a fan of the show so it was lost on me. I am all for humor and a writers creative freedom. Write on!! :)

@Bob: It’s called a “Homophone”, Bob. (Seriously-NO pun intended!!) REEK means “smells bad” while WREAK means “cause destruction”. The writer was simply having a go at the show. And, I don’t mean to be “That girl”; but I thought you’d like to know.

Earlier in the day when I looked at the site it said “Reaping Havoc”. Is that a pun I missed too? After the writer of the headline explained it, I got it. No need to pile on. Like I said I don’t watch the show.

Another riveting, hilarious recap! Great line about Alyssa’s “pig brain.”

I got a panic attack during the lip synch. Alyssa was momentarily amusing, but I suddenly felt like I could handle another episode of her and Coco.
I don’t care to look up who Audrey O’Day is, but I ain’t feeling whatever that tired shit is.

@Ingrid: Sorry. Felt like I “couldn’t” handle another episode of Alyssa and Coco.

The second I saw Alyssa in the bottom two, I knew Ivy would go home. Ru is keeping Alyssa around for the inevitable lip sync showdown between her and Coco. The only two I even like this season are Alaska, save for her Lady Gaga meets Lady Bunny looks in most of the runways, and Jinkx, because let’s face it, she’s the true character this year, instead of all the tired pageant queens. Roxxxy is cute as a boy, but her makeup NEVER CHANGES based on her look. Get it together, girl!

“as she moves like Jagger and dresses like a coked-up werewolf at a board meeting” –> ROFL!

Now the 6 queens left have all won a challenge so I guess the next one to repeat a win will be in the top 3.
