Awww, hell.  Now y'all are just playin' with me.

Was it Christopher?  That was my instinct, but my wife claimed it was Dmitry, so I went with what she said.  I know Dmitry had that cutout jacket with diamond patterns that looked like they were floating in space (kind of the inverse of Layana's design), but I thought he did something more similar to her design for…

Exciting to some, ban(an)al to others.  He should have Chiquita-ed out what the shorts would look like first.  Maybe the whole concept was just too fruity.

That "French Seam" edit was a killer, wasn't it?  One of the few times I thought the editors made a nice little observational joke this season:

It may be that the sad death of Roger Ebert yesterday is sapping my will to be sarcastic, but I'm much more okay with this "nobody loses!" climax than the similar one that happened at the end of last season.  For one thing, the ambiguous previews for next week specifically did not show Michelle travelling to another…

I literally finished reading what's now his final blog post less than eighteen hours ago.  I was just starting to think about finding another good, trustworthy source for well-wrought opinions on movies—basically, putting on the "training wheels" of dealing with the eventuality of his death—when my wife forwarded me…

Atlas Shrugged

Said.

Aw, qrap!  That would have been perfeqt.  I must be getting too reqqless with my editing.  Either that, or Disqus is feeling too self-conscious.

Although I would never refer to Daniel's flip-out last week as "endearing", I recognize it now for the isolated pressure venting that it probably was.  What irritates me about Layana's breakdown is that I get the impression she's like that all the time; she's just waiting for a moment to say it.  I mean, I've never…

Yo, Mookie.  Stay black.

So, let me get this straight.  Zac Posen takes a sick day, which should be the first sign of trouble.  The show announces a Ven Bhudu Challenge, where people design around a rose.  The judges then proceed to put the first Layana design I've ever liked, with interesting accents of leather, a print of springtime romp…

Submitted script for D.A.R.E.-style anti-bike-fetish PSA:

Can you spot the other two substitute "q"s in the post above (and two in my main post below)?  The winner gets a free copy of Richard's hideous ball cap from this show and next week's!  Don't drive your car over it!

Michelle was unusually specific about she was looking for in a bike messenger, wasn't she?  I'll bet that somewhere, in a secure room in her house, she has a DVD player cued up to run Premium Rush when she needs to "relax" and go to her happy place.

If Richard had had the courage of his tacky qonvictions and just stopped to explain his ideas more, maybe he could have led the team to a better vision.  Stanley was good at that sort of thing, and he and Richard seemed good when they were paired together.

Team Slick And Hip?  More like Team Sick And Rip, amiright, amiright?

Yeah, the last time I remember any kind of friction between judges was the finale of the Mondo season, and we all know how that turned out.  Good job on Zac for pushing back on old Laser Eyes; you know she'd turn this show into an absolute monarchy if she could.
