The Reunion


Just saw part 2 it a few minutes ago. The group is going at Christy again like a bunch of high schoolers. Jasmine seems to be jumping the fence-she's becoming a sh!t stirrer like Terra, gradually. Elena is ok. Christy is ok (yeah I said it! Idk why y'all suddenly changing your own dynamic on Briana now that the majority mysteriously left Matt alone and mysteriously blamed Christy for the same thing! No! That hypocrisy doesn't work out in the real world! How can y'all be more tolerant of a concussion/assault than talking to someone?????? And why talk sh!t before he was proven to be a cheater yet pretend he did ok after??????)

Elena needs to chill whenever new women are around the group. I think these women are so used to having themselves at the table that they don't want anyone outside the LP realm to have a critique about them. Like, the AP have to either shut up or say nothing about them. And that doesn't always work because if LP can have normal families, they can have normal friendships, and dwarfism is rare. So why is it all of a sudden not ok to talk about problems with your AP friends and totally fine to talk about it to LP friends??????

They don't like Plastic because they're desperate to be Briana's friend. I seriously felt there was a whole group mentality change for lack of reason. Christy wasn't even half as bad as them talking about Matt which is why their blaming others for what Matt did, apparently. I feel like some people just can't get out of high school, where the majority is always right. If the majority does wrong, people make excuses, but when Christy does, she is spawn of Satan. I tell you, there is always a scapegoat in a high school clique, mainly because of unpopular opinions or something like that. *eyeroll*

Reminds me of LWNY where everyone trashed Dawn for having a different opinion, but not Jason or Lila for having the same opinion. You know, because the two are more 'likeable' (ad hominem, much?) And some of the ATL ones held a grudge over what they perceived as a lie all because Minnie told a lie once?????? Like if you cannot control yourself in front of other people, don't be around them.....I think shows like this further convince naïve folks into saying, 'I'm glad I don't have female friends, they're too catty, blah blah blah!' Not to mention a fight over a logo?????? And accusing folks of 'lies'??????

Disclaimer: In case any of you get in your feelings about my opinions on the group, I am aware this is a 'fake' TV show about very miniscule social behaviors or lack thereof being blown out-of-proportion. Like, for instance, everyone blowing the 'black dwarf' label out-of-proportion yet letting Matt slide after calling them 'little oomps'. Folks debating whether Christy 'went behind her back', folks debating Christy's 'intentions' even though she was nice, folks bringing up old petty things, *eyeroll* The only things real about the show are the health conditions they have, who is family of whom, and their names.

is it just me...or is Todd high/drunk, despite him saying Joe is?

Also Briana needs to NOT do the show if shes going to bitch about 'Everybody in her business" or 'its nobody's business'.

And I agree Plastic seemed so fake. I could maybe see Matt texting her...but Tonya prank calling her...seriously?!

I actually agree with Tara on the Logo, It's didn't work for Tonya's line. But Tonya couldn't take the criticism and Tara couldn't let it go.

And OMG The Average size child thing....just let it gooo! I couldn't believe not one of the girls understood that Tonya meant.

Oh and Christy's friends were no help to her at all, also they seem to come from nowhere.

reply

The average sized child thing is really starting to bug me. It's obvious she was only talking about Briana. I agree they need to let it go.

reply

Yea, I feel like a lot of it is just drama for the show because them harping on it is just ridiculous, it's clear what she meant and if those woman hadn't been pregnant or hadn't just given birth I think they would have been quick to agree with Tonya.

reply

Yes, the average sized thing was petty as hell! They're not Briana, so Idk why they took it so personally. Then again, they take everuthing personally!

It wouldn't be a suprise that Todd has been on anti-depressants before the reunion b/c he has showed symtoms of depression last season. It wouldn't be a suprised Joe was on something either b/c he doesn't seem to function well on social groups, from interrupting people to being as just as agressive as his wife!

I think I saw the logo and it looked not-so-bad to me. I'm much into fashion (brands). I hate shopping for clothes.

Plastic hasn't been on the show that much for me to see a character flaw. She was way more civilized. Christy may have been too thirsty toward her 'friends' by bringing her, but I don't see anything wrong with Plastic. Tonya could have explained her concerns in a better way. And if you wanted Plastic to hurry up and go for monetary reasons, why respond to her while she was leaving just so she can stop and respond to you again??????

Christy's friends and Elena were help because they shut those bullies up at the end! I mean, Christy seems to be the one who lets those girls interrupt her whenever she herself says something. The Mexican AP (offended now Terra and them? Girl please! You're just petty! Nothing is offensive about being black and a dwarf) was right about Jasmine 'being fake' (she hates Christy but pretends to be her friend). The black one was right on Tonya being a follower and Briana being 'weak' (I mean, she lets an un-counseled sex addict walk over her!) Once I saw them, I was like 'yes' b/c the two Ts were always such 'heads' for so long, they made the show so black/white ridiculously!

Shows like this trigger my depression...I myself will pop a happy pill and move on!

I agree they need to leave Christy alone already. I do feel bad for her to some extent but at the same time they all did this to Briana including Christy awhile back. Joe can get very annoying. Always getting into the women's drama. Todd only got in the conversation because Joe was talking crap to Christy. Joe loves drama. Terra and Joe are constantly calling Christy a liar but when she shows proof they still call her a liar. Like damn act like adults already. Terra saying she doesn't want to talk about anymore but yet brings it up every chance she gets. I don't blame Elena for being tired of hearing the same crap everytime.
