a.s.n. reality tv edition

Well, it's almost 6pm and I'm just now getting around to posting my "always.sometimes.never."
Confession: I'm ALWAYS late. I can't even make it on time to my own link-up. 
Good thing I can count on Ellen and Taylor to help a girl out.

This week I've decided to dedicate "always.sometimes.never." to one of my favorite things in life: reality television. (Inspiring, I know.)


The Hills
Always: I'm always up for a good ol' marathon of The Hills. Does anyone else see the irony of having the marathon on Labor Day weekend? You know, considering none of these girls have actually "worked" a day in their lives.
Sometimes: I sometimes get told that I look like Audrina Patridge. I secretly worry that people are really just trying to tell me that I have ceiling eyes. Please don't let that be the case.
Never:  I will never understand why Heidi went from this...
to this...
...there are no words.

Here Comes Honey Boo Boo
Always: There are always at least 10 things in each 30 minute episode of this show that shock me. 
To name a few...
*Honey Boo Boo's mom is only 33 years old and she's a grandma. She had her first child at 15 and that child just had her first child at 17.
*Each daughter (there are 4) has a different dad. Each dad has a criminal record.
*The mom is an extreme couponer. This shocks me because I didn't think there was enough brain power in that pretty little head of hers to even understand what a coupon is.
Sometimes: I sometimes wish I could do this...
Never: I will never get over how crazy this family is. I love it. And I'll never stop watching.

Bachelor Pad
Always: Bachelor Pad will always be my favorite reality show. Nothing compares.
Sometimes: I sometimes wish I could be cast on the Bachelor just to have a chance to be on Bachelor Pad.  P.S. Don't worry Colton, I will sacrifice my Bachelor Pad dreams for you.
Never: I will never watch Bachelor Pad again if Chris and Sarah win. Okay, that's a lie. But I'll be seriously pissed. And then I'll be over it in like a week.

That's all I've got for you today. 
I need to get back to my traumatized dog.
You see, Mace comes over on Thursday and Zoey has never been more terrified of anyone or anything in her life. 
I've said it before and I'll say it again: 2 pound dogs + 2 year olds = a bad idea.

Now it's your turn to join in the fun with Ellen, Taylor, and I!

Lol what on earth are ceiling eyes?!?

Tiffany said...

I'll never understand why Heidi destroyed her Body like that. She's an idiot!

Sarah said...

I share the Hills addiction with you. I will never understand why Heidi did ANYTHING that she did... makes me sad. :( I miss the first season! LOL!

sara with an h said...

i totally always thought she had ceiling eyes and im so glad you have an actual name for it!!!

hiedi is like....i also have no words. i actually always loved lauren and just read her book series LA Candy and even though it's super cheesy, i love it and wonder just how much of it she based on the show.

onto honeybooboo. i want to stop watching but i cant. as crazy as they are, i think that they genuinely love each other, and even though mostly they gross me out (hair bugs, lots of farting..yuck) i can't get enough!!

Brianna Tucker said...

OMG SHES 33??? I was thinking a good 45. Clearly the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. So sad

Haley W. said...

Omgosh..I love all of this. So much to say.

I can see the resemblance between you and Audrina, but you are definitely much prettier and definitely do NOT have ceiling eyes. Ha! And Heidi...oof. So, so bad. She used to be so cute :(

Honey Boo Boo pisses me off to no end because she gives us southerners SUCH a bad name. Eeeeek makes me wanna hurl.

And all things Bachelor make me happy. I'm rooting for Nick and Rachel, too. Chris is the scum of the Earth. Literally. Ew.

Katie said...

you are so funny. I need to do one of these post. I too love reality tv, no matter how bad it is. I no longer say I won't watch this if so and so wins because I no that pretty much whatever happens on those shows I'll still watch and still be excited about it. I just wish I still had cable because I would have so many more options for reality tv!

Bunch of Something said...

ahhhh I love(d) The Hills! Retro MTV days...added bonus to stay at home momma lol

Kasey said...

I love the Hills!!! but Heidi...dear God what happened to her?!? As for your poor pup and 2 year olds, I can relate...my little dachshund is TERRIFIED of anyone under the age 4, it's kind of funny and cute but strange lol

Stesha said...

Brittany Michelle said...

OMG I totally watched the entire Hills marathon and I even got my boyfriend hooked on it with me. And you do not look like Audrina... you are beautiful and she always looks like a sad puppy! And I totally agree with you about the Heidi thing... what a waste, she used to be so cute!

I also love Bachelor Pad and I am right there with you if Chris and Sarah win. I hate them!

Kelly said...

I totally agree with Hedi, like seriously I have no idea what on earth would make her actually do that? She DOES not look any better...

CRAZY PEOPLE!

Raquel said...

Ahh I was OBSESSED with The Hills!! I can't believe Heidi did that either. She was so beautiful!

Joeylee said...

I love the hills and was one of the people who sat on my butt and watched the marathon. I don't understand why Heidi did that either

Whitney@SomethingBroughtYouHere said...

I love the hills. I wish it never ended! Seriously, favorite show ever. Totally agree...what on earth was Heidi thinking. Wonder where she is today...

Emily Marie said...

I'm a reality tv junkie too and I thought there was no way I could watch honey boo boo but I did and it's so bad it's good ha! I can't believe people live like that...so sick!

Ashley said...

I love to pretend I'll never watch Bachelor Pad again if Chris and Sara win too.... but we know that's just not possible. (:

Oh... and Heidi... there are definitely no words. She was so gorgeous.

Michelle said...

I agree with you on all of this! And I never understand why Heidi did that. Does she think she actually looks better?

Mara {One Lucky Girl} said...

I am such a reality TV freak. It's sooo bad but I just can't stop watching. Gallery Girls is my new Bravo obsession.

Laura said...

You are much cuter than Audrina and her ceiling eyes. I dont even know where to begin with Honey Boo Boo....the boyfriend sitting on the couch spitting into a jar says it all. I dont want to watch but I have to. I will be mad if Chris aka Kermit the frog wins too! Have a great weekend!

Ashley said...

Ok so I LOVE the hills and LOVED the marathan :) and also Yes, i love bachelor pad and hate chris and sarah .. dont want them to win either ... I cant wait for the finale!! it looks sooo good!

Johlet said...

And I am a huge Hills fan!

Johlet said...

Oh yes, what is Ceiling eyes?
Haha

TheTinyHeart said...

I;m a reality tv junkie so I LOVED this post!! I wish they'd bring The Hills back, it was such a great show. You do look like Audrina (minus the ceiling eyes), you're gorgeous girl! I can't stop watching Honey Boo Boo either, mostly because I can't believe people like that actually exist!

Mary Edgar said...

Love the Hills! And so does my husband too...even though he'll deny it if you ask him :)

Haven't watched Honey Boo Boo yet but I think I need to. I keep hearing about it!

Every year I say that I'm not going to watch Bachelor Pad but that never happens. It's just too good! I hope Chris and Sarah lose. I might try to cover up my marriage and get on next season as one of the fans...are you in?! :)

Steph said...

You have great reality taste, I can't get enough of those shows either!

Syndal said...

ugh Chris & Sarah better not win..that would make me feel like only bad guys win in this world..right!? yucky!

Brielle said...

AHH LOVE THE HILLS! I still feel bad for Heidi- she looks awful now!! And I love the picture of your dog hiding- so funny!

Kristine said...

HA! You hit the nail right on the head with The Hills and HBBC (I haven't been keeping up with the Bachelor Pad)... I do miss the old Heidi; physically and mentally. And judging by your pictures, I wouldn't say you have Audrina's 'ceiling eyes' ;) haha.

Caley-Jade Rosenberg said...

No ways!! Honey Boo Boo looks RIDICULOUS!!
I'm with you on Heidi - why? why? why?
Have a super weekend x

Jennifer Sanzo said...

Honey boo boo... there are no words

And poor Heidi - she was so pretty and now she's a freak show... clearly a psychiatrist would have been more helpful than a plastic surgeon

jamiedawn said...

oh my god i just found your page and CEILING EYES?!?! that is the best thing i have ever heard in my entire life!!

Kerri said...

haha.. I have to admit... Bachelor Pad is my guilty pleasure. :) Can't wait for the finale!

Alexis Kaye said...

You are so funny! Seriously, all that about Honey Boo Boo. Made me laugh. They all have different dads? Grandma at 33? haha, I've never watched the show but I've seen the commercials and they were enoguh to know what the show is like!! haha

lj said...

Honey Boo Boo actually makes me sad I don't have cable. Like, why am I not watching this?

Jenn @ PSP said...

Okay this link-up is awesome : ) We don't have tv of really any form (now's the time for everyone to throw popcorn at me, go ahead, you know you want to, we're lame like that) - mostly because I get addicted too easily but have too little time to watch anything. We watch movies instead. But it cracks me up to see some of the things on TV now. Like Honey Boo Boo child - they GAVE THAT FAMILY A SHOW?? Like, for real? I mean, the clips from that show cracked me up as much as anyone, but SERIOUSLY? Hilarious! Also you DO look like Audrina, but not in a bad way! : )

katie michelle said...

ohmigosh, that poor puppy!!! Too cute! My cats hate toddlers, too! My friend just came over with her 2 year old, and the poor little guys looked just like your dog there. Terrified.
Also, love The Hills. Guilty pleasure, although I'm absolutely not at all afraid to admit it. And I had to google "ceiling eyes." You do NOT have them!!
xo

Caitlin C. said...

You are hilarious. Amen to every. single. one. My favorite part of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo so far is when Alana says, "I hope Momma don't eat Glitzy. She eats everything else..." hahah.

Megan said...

Hey girl, thanks for the follow! I think I'm your newest follower. I've never seen Honey Boo, but am so curious now!

little lamb said...

Caitlyn @ Little Petrie said...

Honey Bo Bo.. Like watching a car crash and not being able to turn away!!

Allie said...

Oh my gosh I love your blog! I so agree with all the above things minus the Bachelor Pad. I don't really watch that show but I love the Bachelor(ette)!!

Katherine / Of Corgis and Cocktails said...

Rachel @ Raves + Revelations said...

You have great taste in reality TV. I just spend part of my Friday night watching reruns of "Laguna Beach" season 1, and it was amazing.

And Bachelor Pad? Can't stop watching. Any ideas on what happens tonight on the finale?

I loved The Hills!

Amanda Nicole said...

I've been mistaken for Audrina a LOT. I think it's the hair. I personally take it as a compliment. I've posted pictures of me next to pictures of her and people have to do a double take lol.

Risse said...

Haha! Love this idea for posts! Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier :)!

I like your blog very much! Cheers :)!

Ann said...

Okay... I'm going to tell you a secret. Not only have I watched Honey Boo Boo Child but I catch myself talking like that kid (when she's hopped up on go-go juice).

All - of- the- time.

Oh the shame...

Tiffany said...

Hi! Im a new follower of yours. Looking forward to reading more! Thanks for commenting on my page too :)

You had me at your love for Reality Television. ;) New Follower.

Hilary said...

Continuing the stalking, I have never watched an episode (full) of Honey Boo Boo and I am proud to admit that. But I got a kick out of the facts you wrote.

Also, I have The Hills on Hulu, I watch it all the time. I definitely watched this marathon. Oops.
