Yes, the talent is so much better on average than idol. And the judges are funny and adorable. Blake, this country boy who loves his drink, and Adam so cute it must be illegal (”and a nice Jewish boy! Except for the tattoos” lol). Christina bugged me but I will really miss ceeLo. I think he felt he wasn’t verbally quick and clever enough. Those guys are quite smart and verbal. Next year it’s Usher and another long haired blonde chick but without the giant “puppies fighting under not much of a blanket” which I was very sick of.
I think Jonny should do a Voice thread. But there is less to snark about. Is just a pleasure to watch!

Excellent description of Christina....... Looks like Mariah will challenge her for winner of that contest... LOL
Would be great if Jonny would do that, but I think that didn’t make it the last time you asked.....
Enjoy the thread , and the Snarkfest.....
That picture of the high heeled Turban wearer still has me laughing.....
Great contribution to the thread
I HATE double posts

"I have a wonderful doctor, Dr. Schwartz. He told me I had six months to live. I told him I couldn't pay his bill, so he gave me an extra six months."
Off topic, but I read a story recently about the current season of the Bachelor. One of the ladies is a partial amputee...at birth, they had to amputate her left arm just above the elbow. She’s very attractive, accomplished. I’m wondering why she doesn’t have a prosthetic device. They are remarkable. Same thing for the girl surfer who had her arm bitten off by a shark. She’s made a remarkable comeback. Is there a certain community of those who have lost limbs who don’t want artificial ones?
My wife and I never make it past the blind auditions.
I watched the first season, Loved the auditions but hated it after that. Second season watched just the auditions and last season didn’t watch at all.
Some folks...particularly those born without limbs, or who lost them at a very young age, tend to adapt to not having that limb, and generally function better without a prosthetic in some cases! Others just find the prosthetic too cumbersome, or too difficult to get used to, or are simply content with what they have (or don’t have)..
In that same vein............I vividly recall, early in my career, when I delivered babies for a living.......a babe was born without fingers on his left hand.......I was sad and yes, tearful....the pediatrician was fantastic...he gave me a hug and said...”that lad will be fine...he does not know he is supposed to have fingers on that hand”
The child will adapt, in other words :-)
FR’s pages aren’t loading completely. This should make for an interesting night :-|
Can only see the first 13 posts, then the page just stops.
I can see 18 posts now. That’s progress, I guess lol
Let’s just get it ut there....FR sucks lately!
At best, we can try to adapet and overcome........I mean...look at us...we are here because we love each other and a good ole Snark fest :-) SO we put up with a crappy site...despite the beg a thons!
I can see your ping, but not your post :)
Same thing. I can see posts 251 to 270, then nothing.
LOL!
Can you try to go to “Account” at the top of the page...than “preferences” for the thread and increase the number?
hell, I dont know...Im just thinking it is worth a shot...because it seems (at least for thge past many months) that even the owners do not have a freakin clue about what is going on with this site, or how to fix it, despite the “beg a thon” cash flow!
I mean...look at us...we are here because we love each other and a good ole Snark fest :-)
Agree. Those are the only reasons I'm here, lol
