OMG, love it!! ...it's a tad corny, but I'll allow it lol

Thanks!!

And really, Brennan is WSB. It's not impossible for him to have known her while going by the name of Joey while on a mission 🀣 #GH

Wait, really? They broke the 4th wall THAT much?? πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I wouldn't hate it if they did, but it's a bit too off the rails, even for them lol #GH

Sonny is so not needed... but I guess it just means more scenes I don't have to watch πŸ˜‚

Exactly. It's like when Ryan pretending to be Kevin had Laura sign divorce papers. None of it is legal if it's based in fraud

Martin was such a perfect gray character - but this is what they do w/ characters we like more than their pets lol

I'm sure he'll be back in jail soon #GH

That is SO true! During my 90s binge a while ago I was shocked to see the Qs attempt to have Thanksgiving dinner in the actual dining room. It's easily the last time that set existed πŸ˜‚

Just can't remember now if it was w/ Lois or Paul & Jenny... they'd moved to living room by Alexis lol

What happened to the penthouse they were all living in?

Dante (or Danny and Scout) would've gotten ownership of that after Sam's death. They only moved into Q mansion to keep kids together etc

He has countless non-shruLu housing options - and plenty of career/daddy mob money lol. He's fine #GH

I must have blocked that out lol... how long DID it take them? Isn't Nixon Falls supposed to be less than hour away? πŸ˜‚

Well it would track w/ how they write this show now... bc you can't setup supposedly meaningful character (even if whole backstory is retcon πŸ™„) and then take them out of equation and still expect the stakes to remain

That's just not how you construct story, in any medium. But esp not in soaps

Wow. That almost sounds reasonable! πŸ˜‚

Tho in typical fashion for this regime, the pacing would make zero logical sense for 10-11eps... they've setup WAY too much story for proper arc in that time πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ« 

Unless they're planning another full yr of psycho Drew living in Q mansion, and Ronnie gone πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ #GH

My guess is it'll continue for as long as they stretch out ES's appearances πŸ˜‚

This is how they plot story πŸ™„ ...guess we should be happy ES only shot for 3wks. At best it can't go more than 6mos lol... and at current clip (of how often they have her appearing), I'm not sure it'll go past 3mos πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

That's the only unknown "x" factor in the equation of how long they stretch this for lol... It'll depend entirely on how many scenes/days they covered during those 3wks, and then how often they insert them... Remember how long they stretched out dirty prisoner Lucky playing cards? 🀣🀣

I wasn't watching AMC by that stage of Adam, but even Asa always had more layers and softer notes than this (as did mini-Asa, Clint)... And they were all old men in their later-70s πŸ™„

Ya. CM's playing ONE note at all times, several octaves too high for his range πŸ˜‚

He's become worse than cartoon villain... and Scout is giving abused child - srsly this kid is giving WAY more acting layers!

Loved Martin for a while, now he's untethered again. They have no clue how to write him #GH

I did cook before lol, but it was easy to not cook often. The TJ's was barely a block away... so it made me VERY lazy πŸ˜‚

And now I make everything from scratch, incl salad dressings and sauces... But if you come across any fun snacks or dry goods/seasonings that might travel well, pls tag me! πŸ™‚

I need to find a few good pantry/non-perishable TJ's items for when relatives visit...

I'm so sick of the Turkey Jerky and they keep bringing me more, even after I've told them not to! πŸ˜‚

Only positive of not having TJ's near me is that it forced me to learn how to cook, and I actually love it lol

Unless they ever plan to actually kill Drew off, it's just painfully unwatchable w/ zero stakes... even cartoon villains need to be taken down at some point during the arc or it stops being "soapy fun"

Which is the point we hit at least a year ago lol

To be fair, Laura did fight for Spencer a lot when they thought he was orphan... she's a good advocate when grandkids need it, but steps back when their parents can step in

And she didn't not fight for Nik. But he's also often his biggest obstacle lol... I'd still want him back on the show tho #GH

I'm beginning to think whatever the ultimate resolution is for Ronnie, ES was never informed... and wherever it ends up landing will likely just come out of nowhere

Her acting choices are great, but also feel like she's making choices that aren't on the page, bc there's nothing on the page πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Wish I could start a garden. Helped my grandfather w/ his gardens when he was older... it is hard work!

Tho I struggle keeping plants alive so it's like saying, I wish I could play the violin πŸ˜‚

A friend ended up w/ a bunch of chickens... they are LOUD AF, dirty, and so much work. Hard pass πŸ€£πŸ˜’

I don't know why that word just popped into my head in this context but it feels oddly fitting to where we are right now... and hearkens back to a time that was slightly less awful lol

Oh for sure. I'm not following his actions that closely since he's not my direct problem... bc instead of this "Wrestlemania" nonsense, Legault decided to go after the doctors πŸ˜³πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

I'm so ready for this timeline to be over! Every show on the network is just another worse iteration of the other πŸ˜‚πŸ˜­

Can't say I'm not enjoying his trolling and counter-bully tactics lol... but he's a big reason I don't want to move to Ontario

His responses have been so effective bc he's a different flavor of the same thing... as is Gavin Newsom. They're all just variations of narcissism, and corruption

If we didn't know for sure where this was going, we know now lol. Tracy is ALWAYS right. She's a Cassandra, that's her curse πŸ˜‚

Ronnie is def running a con... prob w/ Martin/Drew. Is she even Monica's sister? Prob not - tho knowing this regime πŸ™„

Only saving grace of s/l are the brilliant actors #GH

They want us to believe tea was spiked... but the way Jane played it, Tracy appeared clueless - ie. not plotting mode lol

Martin also seemed suspicious, but no clue what his end game/plan might be

Then I thought... what if Ronnie was faking? Again, not sure why. But could be part of the con πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ #GH

Nothing beats the feeling of being told by a toddler that you look like a princess! πŸ‘ΈπŸ˜†

But the flip side is they'll also ask why your butt looks big or why you have a red spot on your face? 🀣🀣🀣

Was sick a few wks ago and didn't have any makeup/mascara on. 5yo niece said I looked weird πŸ˜‚

And I'm not being facetious about Disney firing women w/ discriminatory intent (usually just for the crime of aging, or being a woman, and maybe one had an illness)... there are a few current ongoing lawsuits. I've actually lost track, that's how big an issue it is there lol πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

Well he looks physically ill so that seems plausible

I wouldn't wish a degenerative disease on anyone... but if that's the case, you'd think he might be a little less toxic

Disney has plenty of legit cause to fire him w/out discriminatory intent... and if he were woman they already would have lol

19.10.2025 02:27 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Honestly, that's the only thing that would make sense as to why he hasn't been fired yet

It doesn't absolve him of everything else he is or does, or choices he makes, or toxic environment he creates. But at least it would explain why he's still employed after months of plummeting ratings
