Be careful who you let help you!


I'm catching up and watching Emily and Nicold help Meredith. She's getting her teeth done now. They look great, by the way. And for the moment she told E and N about her accident they looked genuinely conceded. However, I still say be careful who you let help you because people have motives for wanting to help. And depending on their motives they might not like it once you no longer need their help, which is pretty common, because they're helping out of need for themselves, not real concern for the other person, even if they think they are. I've seen it; I've experienced it.

There's also the saying that you should be wary of the first person who wants to be your friend. That's in a new home, school, job. Take it with a grain of salt, of course. Not everyone who first speaks to you or brings you cookies is bad. What it means is the one who wants to ingratiate themselves. The one who is ready to make sure you know the lay of the land, so to speak. Listen, but tell them nothing, and try not to be seen with them. They are usually the troublemaker and they're trying to win you over.

Lesson learned. The hard way, I'm sorry to say.

And they prove my point by the end of the episode. She explicitly stated she did not want to watch her wedding video, and they not only disregarded that fact, but put her on the spot in front of everyone at what was supposed to be her moment. And then turned it around saying it was "done with the best of intentions." They tried to make themselves look like heroes and made her look like a fool having to apologize to them and everyone else for breaking down in front of everyone about something they already knew did did not want to do.

Emily and Nicole are a couple of narcissistic ^*#%~!

In the car:

Emily's unknowing husband: It was a sweet gesture. She just wasn't ready.

<small exchange between Nicole and her husband>

Nicole to Emily: You seem a little like flustered and stuff, but really we should be proud of ourselves.

Emily: Oh my gosh I'm, I'm SO proud of us. I mean, people love to say I don't have a heart, but at the end of the day I'm a very caring person. You're either are in or out, and she's in.

Nicole: It turned out to be an A+ job, once again.

Emily: Yep.

Husband: Y'all looked hot. I think that counts for something.

Emily: We did? Well yeah. Thank you babe!

Husband: So, there you go.

Wow, she has a heart. It's just cold as ice. Or "three sizes too small," as they say about the Grinch. These women are horrid! An A+ job? See, be careful who you let help you. As soon as Emily heard about Meridith's accident (i.e. a weakness) her eyes widened the way most do when we are aroused. It's what excites her, to be able to conquer something or someone, which is probably why her husband sleeps alone. She conquered him so she has little use for him now. And she has a big heart, but people are in or out? Like a sorority, right? And Nicole said something about "...don't judge?" Who is she to talk about others not judging? Judging is all these women do!

Emily and Nicole are embarrassing for women like me. My family has been here before this even was a state. I am Southern and did most of those silly things people think of when they think of girls from the South. But I think these women are idiots. If you asked me to play up my Southerness I could, but I still couldn't act as dumb as these women. And I'm blonde, too. They are embarrassing stereotypes.

I've heard it said that you have to be smart to play dumb convincingly, but unless they've been given those lines I don't think that's the case here. I think they have nothing in their heads that doesn't concern their own image. Oh, and talk about Skank. When Emily said platinum would make Meredith look like a stripper I thought she had no room to talk the way she dresses. I like some of her clothes, but seeing her sitting at her desk with those earrings and that faux fur (or real; not the point) vest I thought she looked exactly like a hooker. Or a drag queen.

Well, as you could trudge back through some of my old posts on other shows you'd see I've often said something to the effect, "...but I wasn't wearing my glasses so I'm not sure." So, to me while lying in bed watching without my glasses, which I don't need to see exactly what's going on or to read large words on the screen, they looked good, but then smaller script and anything really fine I can't see at a distance so maybe they didn't. Personally, I would have wanted to get braces first. I can't imagine that it feels good to have something put on your teeth that evens them out like that. Maybe I didn't see them that well before the veneers, but the front two looked like they stuck out enough that you'd have to build up the teeth around them. Maybe I don't know how that works, but it seems like it would feel really thick to make them feel even. Couldn't they put braces on the back (don't they do that now) and as soon as they weren't overlapping in any way then put veneers on them for cosmetic reasons while they still were being moved into place in the back? Maybe not since they probably would settle around the gumline, but it seems like you'd try to straighten them out a little first. What's six months in a lifetime to get them into place before being able to do the cosmetic work?

That said, is that all you got from my entire post?
