Tafoya family


Two words: WHITE TRASH

I am watching this one now. So far... I have to agree with you. Holly is not very likeable. A stay at home mom with her kids in the street? Ugh..

reply

Yes, Holly has the emotionally maturity of a 15 year old. Also the dad was a caveman. I'm surprised we didn't see clips of him belching and scratching his crotch.

I think that seems to be a prerequisite to this show (even more so with Wife Swap!)

their role model is Roseanne Conner (notice, at first she was a strugling mother but then she turned white trashy and proud of it??)



You're laborers, you're supposed to be laboring! That's what you get for not having an education!!

I just saw this one too. I agree with you, Jennifer. They're very, uh, ghetto.

And I hate to break it to you guys... but they have four now. Yes, in a year's time since the show first aired, she had a girl.

Curiosity got the better of me and I HAD to look them up on MySpace. ;-)

Sure enough, their profiles look exactly as I imagined they would. His wallpaper is a picture of a girl in a thong, and she prides herself on being a bad-as* beotch.

I am quite curious what he does to bring in the money to afford that house.
I really am. Didn't he say he repairs garage doors or something? I didn't know that was so lucrative. o.O

One thing I noticed about their oldest boy (the one that had the problem with lying), was that despite his surroundings and his "role model" parents, was the fact that he is actually very smart. When his mom gave him that video game ratings card to read, he was able to pronounce bigger words like "suggestive"... and he articulates really well. I noticed that when he spoke. What kind of bet that kid lost to get them for parents, I don't know.


reply

Yes, another child is exactly what they needed. Thanks for the links. Did you see what they named the poor child?

reply

Yep.... "Serenity." lol (ugh)

I just noticed the guy has put his profile to private! lmao!! Hmmm, maybe we've got a certain someone lurking on this board?

Well... be a butthead on TV and that's what you get, pal. ;-)

reply

What is up with the kid's pierced ear?? WTH would they facilitate that?? Idiots.


And now for something completely different...

reply

They were absolutely revolting. The mom was 26 and her oldest was seven. You can so the math on that one. Punishing the child by making him ingest soap was repulsive and abusive. She's telling Jo "I get no pleasure from this" all the while with a trashy, teenage smirk on her face.

As for the dad, I'm willing to bet he's a high school drop out with a blue collar job that pays just enough. He was a total neanderthal. They likely live in an area with an extremely low cost of living which is why their house appears nice.
