I feel this way every season. There's something about seeing people so stripped down — then suddenly they're back to normal weight and wearing too much make-up.

I think you should watch Cydney's Ponderosa video, because it does show a high-school clique dynamic going on.

But phonetically, it sounded like "Fat Femination," which sounds kind of empowering to me. :)

Yeah, but he was going to Portland, so….

I think of Manny as a mini-Frasier Crane. I've met straight men who are kind of like that — certainly fussier than I am about things, and more into clothes. The joke with Manny (when he was younger) was that he was playing that character as an 11-year-old.

I can see the thing with Raj, because the writers often make homoerotic double entrende's with him and Howard. Of course, they also play the subtext of Raj being attracted to Bernadette, so I guess it evens out.

I don't know about that. Chi Chi said in Untucked that she learned a lot of stuff — how to care for her wigs, for example. Someone was helping her.

I thought she won because she had the room in stitches. But I was glad, because she is the best choreographer and knows how to run a rehearsal.

Kim Chi is a person of color.

Honestly, Tai had no choice but to keep his idol. He and Aubry were tied at two votes each. If Scot used the super-idol, then the jury would have had to re-vote either Tai and Aubry. And Julia would most likely have voted for Tai. So, it would have been a 4-2 vote with Tai going home.

I know! Kim Chi may be mostly a "look" queen — but her looks are transcendent.

I don't see why not. As of the end of the episode he was officially in possession of both idols. If I were him, I'd go hide them both — in case Jason and Scot try to bully them back from him.

So did Chad. It's funny, but all the queens who've done costume changes have been seated in that bottom corner. I guess it's the designated switching spot?

Okay, since you asked… I'm not majorly concerned, but I am observing that both the male Snatch Game characters have been black males — and it's veering towards Minstrelsy. Veering. It's not there and anyone can argue that Michael Jackson was neither completely black nor completely male.

I think she surprised that they pad their legs.

Sorry, but I thought Chi Chi's take was killer.

I'm old, so I think of early Madonna, like the 80's mess of rosaries and thirsty hair. Or either "Vogue" look (cross-dressing music video, or MTV baroque). Or the "Material Girl" look. I mostly think of blonde hair and dark eyebrows.

You're right! I forgot that the next week was also Top Seven.

Thinking about it, it's not even so much that Tatianna won with Britney. That performance (along with Pandora's Carol Channing) made Snatch Game. If they hadn't been so amazing and funny, the show might not have been inspired to repeat SG — and we'd have lost the defining challenge of the show.
