It's so weird to me that Twitter seemed to be Team Craig after the finale. I thought Craig behaved like a classless, drunk, frat boy.  I'd kill my husband if he behaved that way as a host, but Paige continues to show her true mean girl colors. Craig seems to believe he's some sort of business genius when he was just lucky and enough to score a spot on a reality TV show. Tell me anyone would be buying his crappy pillows if he wasn't on Bravo.

PS - Place cards are a religion in the South. 

Agree with all of this! That said I think I’d 100% travel and quit my job — that’s a once in a lifetime thing, and jobs come and go. 

The finale and the whole season was so underwhelming. I wonder if it’ll get renewed. The empty party (parties in big spaces with not enough people to fill them are my nightmare) was so boring to watch. It was literally 20 minutes of people greeting each other hello, capped off with some unexplained Leva and Craig beef. 

It’s amazing to me what a bad PR move it was for Paige to start dating Craig — just one year ago, she was the ultimate Greek chorus, and now, even her most fervent supporters are side-eyeing her behavior since she started dating him. I’m curious if she’ll turn around by Summer House, but it just seems like Craig is just not the best for her image. 

(1) Paige’s comments and facial expressions at the end of this dinner were so ugh—like you’re fooling no one, you’re pulling Craig’s puppet strings but you’re making the both of you look like assholes and don’t even realize it.

(2) I thought naomie and Venita were closer friends but them being show friends bc they went to high school together is believable.  I still thought naomie was too harsh. 

(3) would you quit your job and take the free trip or keep your independence? I think the answer depends on whether you have strong unrequited feelings for the other person

(4) why…is Austen…becoming attractive to me again…
