The Real World? Real Bore.



As the Brooklyn season comes to a close, I can't help but admit the cold, boring truth staring me in the face every Wednesday night at the 10 spot; this season sucked. Sure, we got an extra roommate (and sadly, it wasn't because they counted Katelyn twice); but the even number just created an even split between the roommates. And not in a good, fun, drama conflicty kind of way. The happy quartet of boring girls played cards all day while the equally boring quartet of boys played pranks. Oh right, the pranks! Even the pranks couldn't save this season. Any other season would have included the pranks on their "Real World You Never Saw" DVD as a fun extra. Not as the meat and potatoes of the show.

Let's talk about some highlights:

- Ryan singing songs with Chet going all googily eyed in the boat
- JD telling Devon that she was a terrible singer then making her have sing off against Tranny
- Scott giving Katelyn $1500 so she could stay to gamble and shop at Hot Topic.
-Chet's insanely awkward date with Scott's friend/Chet's insanely awkward audition at MTV/Chet's insanely awkward everything.
- Ryan finding out he was going to the army? Was that a highlight?

That's it.

I didn't see anyone throw up from drinking too much. None of the roommates hooked up. The hot-tub was utterly useless. No pregnancy scares. No phone calls to their signifcant others to warn them that they've been naughty. NO VACATION. This season was so bad that the producers didnt' even spend the money to send them on vacation. Remember those trips? Greece, India, Australia, Africa. But no, no. Real World Brooklyn went to Gettysburg and Atlantic City. And their party bus was an insult to Real World fans everywhere. All I could think about was how Denver Jenn and Colie would have rocked that bus. But instead, everyone lounged, watched scenic New Jersey pass them by.

I like these characters, I do. What's not to like about Ryan and Scott? But I think we all know the highlights of last night's episode were the Hills trailer (Audrina and Brody?!) and seeing that Ruthie is going to participate in the Duel II (intervention anyone).

Cheers to the finale.

Diary of a Mad Black Woman: Bellisha and Beaubeau make their dreams come true

The following contains the detailed events of a recent Friday night and the quest to find Whitney Port. The bloggers would like you to know that copious amounts of Stella, Smithwicks, and distilled vodka were consumed during the creation of this entry.


1/23/09, 7:52 PM - Hoboken Path Station
Beau and Belle off to a shaky start - just missed the path but remain in high spirits.
Supplies:
Whit/Olivia twists
Notebook
Us weekly (earmarked to the page with Whit on the beach in Miami)
Cards
Vampire in a box
most importantly... DRIVE

8:01 PM - A Haiku
Eight oh one depart
Off to Whitney's apartment
I hope it's a blast.

8:06 - on path train
Train stops underground - dropping off mole people. More to come.


8:27 PM
SPOTTED: Beau and Belle in front of Whit's building! Beau freaked, false alarm but he chased people down the street. Starbucks on the corner, bet that's where she gets her morning cup of joe.


8:38 PM
Still no sign of Whitney and I'm pretty sure the couple I chased down the street was not them. why aren't there more people here doing the same thing? Reporting live from 3rd and 23rd.
PS Belle just saw Cam Anthony
Also, code word for when we see Whit is "Shake Shack."

8:46 PM
On pay phone on her corner. Calling Z100 to tell them what we're doing - drinking orange juice and vodka out of a water bottle. Belle is paranoid that people are onto us.



8:49 PM
No one is onto us. But there are a lot of Whitney look alikes in this neighborhood. Her presence is felt almost like a sixth sense. I'm drawn to her like Bella and Edward, or Jack and Rose, or Wall-e and Eva.

Where are you whit? Do you go to Rolf's German Restaurant for weinerschnitzel? Bull's Head tavern for a brewski? CVS for feminine products? Is Lyric Diner always your last stop on your way home from Tenjune? Why oh why did I have to see someone from high school and work while I stalk you?



9:00 PM
The cold is setting upon us like the freezing cold Lake Wissota. It feels like a thousand knives stabbing you all over your body. How cold? Freezing. Maybe a couple of degrees over.

9:38 PM
Beau and Belle at local watering hole, Bull's Head Tavern, hoping Whit will breeze in. Probably not because these bartenders think they are in Coyote Ugly but act like the mermaid in the hit movie Aquamarine.

A Haiku
UGLY BARTENDERS
YOU'RE NOT BRINGING SEXY BACK
BLOG ARE NOT FOR BARS.

Also, while bartenders slut it up and take shots, the poor coat check girl sits in the corner, dressed in black, reading a magazine - every inch of flesh covered. I bet Whit talks to her.

9:43 PM - A Poem, in four parts

Whit, we came to look for you,
On twenty third and third,
Your blatant absence makes us blue,
Our behavior has been absurd.

Whit, we came to look for you,
On this wintry day,
A subway ride, a short brisk walk,
There's so much left to say.

Whit, we came to look for you,
That's why we're across the street,
See you at Bull's Head Tavern,
Finally, the three of us will meet.

Whit we came to look for you,
We don't think that's a shocker,
We circle your block three, four times,
But promse that we're not your stalkers.

11:10 PM - King's Crossing
Beau and Belle meet friends and tell them their tales.
Spotted: CM making out with J. Jew at King's Crossing, lower east side

11:11 PM, guest blogger Jessica Bowers checks in
Here we are at an underground bar...surrounded by friends. These two bloggers next to me are obsessed with Whit. I am drinking vodka tonic and Belle is singing in my ear. But the big question is, where is Whit? And does she like being stalked?



12:06 AM
At fat Black Pussycat with our guest blogger Jessica "Boom Boom" Bowers. I wish Whitney woudl get here already and we could dance and play darts. Does anyone know if she's at Sundance? This is straight from my heart.

Free Association with Beau, Belle and Guest Blogger
Audrina - eyes, boobs, spacey
Teen Vogue - Lauren Conrad, Lisa Love, "boss's name that I don't know"
Laguna Beach - Kristin Cavallari, Stephen Colletti, black and white party

1/24/09 - 12:42 AM
Beau and Belle are in the 9th street path station.

A Haiku
Faces are flush
Drinks have been drunk
Slobs are going home



Where are you, Whitney?
