The Bachelorette - From the Newer of York to the Land the Bjork

Spoiler Alert: watch this week’s episode before you read this.

Before I get started, I have to rant: The host of this show is superfluous and annoying.  I would pay good money to see an octagon death-match between Chris Harrison and Jeff Probst – and I would cheer for Jeff Probst.

I’m really glad that tattoo boy was the first to go home tonight.   He perpetually made me cringe; so I can only imagine the uncomfortable effect he had on Ali.  By the way, what a painfully long flight home that must’ve been for ‘Kreepy’ Kasey and Chris ‘I’m a dial tone’ N.  I wonder if they sat next to each other.

I watched the unveiling of the wrist tattoo sequence like 7 times, and it actually went over better than I thought it would.  I believe this is because Ali is a sweet and polite girl; and ABC may have trimmed her response so as not to tip her cap too much.  How in the fiery hell could he have thought that permanent expression of bad judgment was going to help his cause?  If my wife surprised me on our 35th wedding anniversary with my name tattooed on her butt, I’d be like “that had better be Henna.  Otherwise you just narrowed your future prospects to Derrick, Roderick and that guy who sings “Never Gonna Give You Up”.”
