We all know I am addicted to reality television. I watch all the shows, at least once. With Bravo’s "Real Housewives" series, I was hooked from the beginning, and I've watched all the seasons. They are a silly distraction, and pure entertainment.
There is an overlap this week with the end of "The Real Housewives of Orange County," as the New York City version is beginning, so we get a double dose of these chicks. After years of watching, laughing and thinking they were fabulous, it finally became clear this week. These chicks are actually quite disturbing.
What’s so interesting is that I can look at all the women, in all the cities, and compare them to women in my life. I actually see myself in some of them, too. What does it say about me and my friends that I see similarities to these ladies, when they are so unappealing?
These chicks have no clue. They have become caricatures of themselves. They went from being people whom I looked at and thought had lovely lives, to women with whom I would never change places. They all appear to be miserable, and there is nothing attractive about that.
I always wanted to be a housewife. Instead I have worked, and raised my son on my own. I’ve gotten to play housewife through a couple of relationships, but it’s not the same. I honestly think these women have no idea how blessed they are, or how pathetic they look.
These women should be ashamed by how they behave, particularly as mothers. I am mortified for their children. Do they not think about how it will impact the lives of their children down the road? They should be embarrassed, and seriously worry about what they are doing to their kids.
Why is the single chick in each cast so horrible? The unmarried one is always a little skanky, and desperate. I’m the single one in my group, and it’s annoying that the single one is always a skank.
I’ve been silent too long, ladies. It’s time for you to be sucked into my blog.
Lynn, Orange County: You spent $2,000 shopping in the same week you and your family were evicted from your home for not paying rent. Your underage children both got wasted in a limo, which you were also in, and you said you don’t know how they got drunk.
You might want to knock off the lithium. You are delusional, and your family is crashing around you, and you don’t get it, or even seem to care. You chose to get a facelift, rather than spend time with your daughters, who are well on their way to having careers in porn. Grow up.
Kim, Atlanta: You are a mess. You smoke in the car, and at home, with your children there. It is simply the most selfish of acts. You are choosing to kill not only yourself, but your children. You drink in front of them constantly, and your boyfriend is married.
