I am safe (and now drunk) in Canada but why America, why?

Yeah they’re always coy when someone has rich parents. Because there is no way a yoga instructor can afford a million dollar villa in the south of France.

It also bothered me but it sounds like the deputy was very emotional about what he saw, so I’ll give it a pass.

Right? Those houses in Texas that are, like, $75000 and are brand new with granite countertops and in ground swimming pools kill me.

Income Property is also not totally staged.

Also to mutter: “how can those assholes afford a million dollar vacation home?” to myself. Only once, when the buyers were both orthopedic surgeons was I mollified.

This was discovered about House Hunters a couple of years back and...no one cared. People watch these shows because they’re nosy about other people’s houses, not because they care about the buying process.

The school catered to nouveau riche parents who wanted their money’s worth.

- I waste a lot of time walking into rooms and wondering why I went into said room.

David’s Tea also makes me anxious. I would prefer just to read the ingredients but the people at my local shop really, really wanna talk about tea.

I am French (well half anyways), have lived in France, now live in Québéc, and there is very little difference in the pronunciation of the word mayonnaise between the two languages. And if you’ve never heard someone order “des frites avec mayo” then you probably haven’t been in France or Belgium after the bars close.

I remember coming across customer service workers in Paris who actually messed with tourists who didn’t speak French (my fave was a waiter who pretended not to understand my American flatmate’s request for mayo when it’s the same damn word in French).

This brings back memories of one of my first years of teaching when I worked at a fancy private school that charged the parents plenty and paid their employees peanuts. This one mother complained to the principal that “the teachers didn’t smile enough in the morning”. Generally I always greet my students with a smile

Ah, now I know who Joel Grey is. Hey, lots of 5 degrees of Joss Whedon going on with Jennifer Grey.

She’s married to Agent Coulson? One of the classic “That guy” guys? I find that much more mind blowing...never heard of Joel Grey before TBH.

She looked small and fast.

Hopefully back to Netflix because I hate Bell with the fury of a thousand burning suns.

Are there any people who have PEGOTed and lived to tell the tale (I love these acronyms and wish I could watch the 30 Rock EGOT episode right now. Damn you Canadian Netflix).

DON’T BLAME THE WINE IT IS AN INNOCENT BYSTANDER!
