I always say this is a show about awful men and the women who tolerate them.
Afriend recently saidthat its really a show about entitlement, and shes not wrong.
Naomie says, At least you ask now before taking food.
Wait, so he literally takes other peoples food without asking?
I have never seen a better metaphor for entitlement in my long socialist life.
Theres just something about this whole trip at a not-luxurious-enough resort that made it feel like a conference.
This doesnt feel like friends hanging out having a good time.
It feels like work.
Hes insisting that she sit next to him on the couch, and she says no.
First of all, who is punishing him?
Second of all, have we ever seen him be kind.
I bet Shep is so unkind he didnt even rewind his VHS tapes before returning them to Blockbuster.
Dude, even his girlfriend knows hes a joke.
(Nothing says luxury accommodations like a driveway that can get stuck in the treads of your sneakers.)
Shep comes down and starts whispering in Taylors ear about how everyone is attacking him.
Dude, no one is attacking you.
That is entitlement, to see any sort of criticism as an attack.
Theyre looking out for both youandTaylor, and you cant appreciate it at all.
Did he and Carl fromSummer Housedo a body swap?
Shep screams he cant believe hes sharing oxygen with Austen.
Yeah, privileged much.
Even your air is better than everyone else like youre drinking Perri Air fromSpaceballs.
Today Leva and her son are in the kitchen.
She is talking to him.
That was the entire episode ofLeva Talks to Her Son in Her Kitchen.
Tune in next week to see how the cookies turned out and what they will talk about.
This is not really an activity.
It actually seems like a fun day, but why are we watching this?
What even is this?
The boat does give us one of the many Craig and Austen bromance moments of the episode.
Its like the Sigma Nu uniform or something.
They then ride a tandem bike together to dinner.
Oh, these two should just get married already.
Okay, good burn, Olivia.
That is all you have given us this whole season, so thanks for that.
Dinner is tense because, well, Craig and Naomie should not be around each other.
Hello, shes French.
Again, this should not be a problem because they are not around each other.
However, a reality show is an artificial construct.
Im still thinking about Austens ass from last episode.
At dinner, Naomie is yelling at Venita saying that she is fake as fuck for what she said.
I think Venita was actually beingrealas fuck.
I think it takes a real friend to stand up to you and tell you when youre wrong.
Being loyal does not mean always agreeing with you; it means always looking out for you.
Loyalty is not blind devotion.
Port is not wine.
Doritos is not a group of friends hanging out in your hotel room.
Shrimping is not just a boat trip.
But most of all, entitlement is not cool.
When will these jamokes learn that?
