  • Ramona? Good news! STILL CRAZY. Still twitches spastically, still finds herself white hot. When someone mentioned her haircut, she rambled something incoherent about Sampson and Delilah and how her “long gorgeous blonde hair” was “my sex symbol.” Huh?
  • But seriously, she looks like she aged 15 years since the last season. Too many shots of Patron probably.
  • Mario’s crack about the Countess now being Countless was solid word play. But also bitchy, because even divorced, everyone knows how she clings to her title. But what can you expect from a guy who wears man jewelry?
  • I was going to say: I think LuAnn could have a whole second career in her now that her sugar daddy has flown the nest. She needs to start a blog about maintaining the facade of a socialite lifestyle on a budget. She can borrow from her former status as etiquette expert and give entertaining tips, shopping finds, list the latest online coupon codes for J.Crew, she might even do some cooking posts. She’ll be the P-Dub of the Hamptons.
  • However, then I saw the promo where she’s recording a song about etiquette. Reality show starlet + musical career = I think you’re getting bad advice.
  • What you should be spending your time on is that daughter who broke her wrist sneaking out of the house. The kid fell off a second-floor balcony. Heed the warning, LuAnn.
  • Jill Zarin’s Bobby with his ’70s photo-gray glasses and the admission that he has every issue of Playboy since 1969 screams “creepy uncle.”
  • Kelly? STILL CRAZY. That is all.
  • “To show people your boobs is a huge, huge honor.”
  • I will give her big props for the crack about Bethenny inventing the margarita. It was quick, witty and actually fit in with the context of the conversation. Kelly, FTW.
  • But that’s it – Bethenny with her PETA ad and Kelly in Playboy. Let’s hope that’s the extent of it.
  • Even with the questionable home decor and children with aspirational names, Alex still seems normal and real, which makes Simon even harder to explain.
  • Bravo to Bethenny about the boy and the baby and the business. And alliteration overload. I even dig her Skinny Girl Margarita car, primarily because it irked the delicate sensibilities of the Countess, who couldn’t understand the distinction between driving around in a be-logoed car when it makes you money as opposed to wearing a designer logo that cost you money.

    1. Some blogger cut her hair really short so that she and her her hot assistant could star as blonde and brunette twins in porno movies made by the blogger’s husband and THAT is how they’re making that reported $40,000 a month.
    2. The real reason a certain HR blogger in the upper Midwest stopped blogging is because she was offered big bucks to be Lady Gaga’s decoy.
    3. Oprah and Gayle are gay together.
    4. Phineas and Ferb are gay together.
    5. Elin Woods actually flipped out and attacked Tiger with a golf club because he refused to help with the dishes after Thanksgiving dinner, making some crack about how “dishes are for chicks” before joining the men in front of the TV. The unraveling nightmare about multiple skanky mistresses was just an extremely lucky break for her.
    6. We don’t actually own a struggling restaurant. It’s a meth lab. I don’t know where we’re going wrong in the marketing of this thing, but MB’s Meth Lab and Pancake House is just not taking off like we envisioned.
    7. Bill O’Reilly and Glenn Beck are gay together.
    8. Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert are gay together.
    9. A list-loving, LA-living, NBA-watching blogger paid for her Ph.D. by being a Laker Girl at night.
    10. That shredhead blogger whose poses in lingerie for her Twitter avatar? That’s MY slammin’ bod she Photoshopped her head on.
    11. Ina Garten and Paula Deen are gay together.
    12. George Clooney and Brad Pitt are gay together.
    13. Kelly Ripa is such a freak about gaining weight, she jogs in place while waiting for elevators and eats only Pepp-o-mint Lifesavers. Or maybe it’s orange Tic Tacs. (This one may actually be true. I heard it from someone who heard it from someone who works on the show.)
    14. Bill Gates has an iPod and listens to Dave Ramsey podcasts on it.
    15. Charlie Sheen’s an addict and a dangerously violent hothead whose life is headed toward some tragic end. Oh, wait. That might be true, too.
    16. Barack and Michelle Obama are gay together.
    17. The real reason Rosie O’Donnell left “The View” is because she has a mad crush on Hasslebeck.
    18. Kim Kardashian once dated a white guy.
