Teen Mom, A Few Judgmental Comments
First of all, yay – it’s back. I really love this show, because it’s like a car accident… you just can’t stop watching!
Amber – where do I even begin? #1) what should you do (first) when you think you are pregnant? Should you call your cousin over to discuss how this will ruin your life? Should you tell your boyfriend (and have him call up his friends) to explain how this will ruin your life? No! FIRST, you buy a damn pregnancy test from Walgreens for $10 and you pee on a stick.
#2, my sister was homeschooled throughout high school and so to “graduate” she needed to sit for the GED. And because I’m a huge nerd I read through her study book. The test? It isn’t hard! How is she still trying to pass this exam 3 years later?
#3, the reason for the pregnancy scare was because they “got caught up in the heat of the moment.” Let’s ignore for a moment the blatant reminder of the consequences of doing that (aka the 1+ year old crawling around their feet) and focus in on the “heat of the moment” part. I’m sorry but have you seen Gary? HOW were you not able to pause for 1 second and think hmmm…. Better safe than Leah 2.0.
You see my point right?
Farrah. Okay so of course I abhor domestic violence, but come on. Her mom is what? 1 dress size larger than Farrah is. Next time, lift your hand and smack hers out of the way before she hits you. And if you are going to call the cops on your mom and have her thrown in jail, don’t expect to live off her!
I’m a weakling, and I could have taken her.
Catelynn, sigh. You were my favorite. No wait, Tyler was my favorite but we’ll get to him next. Of course giving your child up for adoption is something that would be hard for anyone to get over. But as an impartial audience member, I’m kinda getting bored with all the whining 3 years after the fact. Where are The Hills’ writers when you need them? New story line please.
Now on to Tyler, and how he is letting me down. 1) if you are in high school and decide proposing is a good idea, have the decency to tell her alone (and not in front of other girls in the high school) that you are not ready to be engaged. Or better yet, if you aren’t ready. Don’t ask! And 2) if you think it’s time to send your fiancé packing back to her psycho mother and stepfather’s (read: boyfriend’s father – can you say trashy?) drug laden house, have the balls to tell her yourself. Don’t have your mom do it for you!
Macy. Words cannot express how much I love you. Homegirl (I’m channeling LC) takes the loser ex to court for child support while juggling college and work.
So what does all my bitching mean? I can’t wait for next week’s episode!
