Nothing that Arsenio has to say is worth waiting for. But go ahead, tell me the punch line.

Aubrey O'Day is a fuckin' beyootch.

I watched it, but I zoomed through some of it. Arsenio was pissed! Heh. Did the part where he said something about googling her and saying something unkind about her naked body make it on air? I guess HuffPo wrote about it.

Not that I'm defending her. She does seem full of herself, and if they were hard on her, maybe she needed it and will learn from it.

Arsenio's team won, and the tape does not show who from the other team got sent home. Oh well, that's 14 minutes of my life gone.

Oh, and hi, Darce!

Darcy said...

Hi Sixty! :)

She's a bitch but she doesn't know she's a bitch.

There's an old Muslim saying:

She who is not a bitch but knows not that she is not a bitch is a potential girlfriend. Date her.

She who is not a bitch but knows that she is not a bitch is a child. Teach her.

She who is a bitch but knows not that she is a bitch is asleep. Wake her.

She who is a bitch and knows that she is a bitch is probably on one of those "Real Housewife" shows. Shun her.

They're pretty misogynist, those guys.

Hi Six.

Deja vu my work experiences with most (not all! just most) women in a corporate work environment.

Just. Too. Much. Work.

The drama never ends. And you waste a lot of time trying to herd hormonal cats.

My experience.

Down in Chicago with my BFFs, whatever that means. Felt the need to be with women I loved. Wish Darcy lived nearby.

We've known each other since nursing school 30 plus years ago, they all ended up in the Chicago area and left me alone in Wisconsin, bitches!

Seriously we never fight, I wonder why that could be, hmmmmm.

Darcy said...

Aww. Have fun, Allie! And psst! I'm only a 4 hour drive away from Chicago. :)

You what struck me as I watched this clip? The kind of instinctive reaction that women have to defend other women - even by making faces of disapproval - when the source of criticism is a man. I really think we are conditioned to go to a sexist reaction with regard to this. "He's being MEAN to her!!!" It's such bullshit. We all need to have a mirror held up before us now and then, and softening the blow because the object of criticism is female is not helping women.

Similarly, this is related to how women process criticism from men as well. For instance, I once had a man tell me that I was coming off as "needy". I was highly insulted by it and proceeded to attack back in the vein of how ungentlemanly that was of him. I mean, I didn't see it that way then, but that's exactly what I did to him.

You know what? He was spot on correct and it was something very meaningful for me to know about myself. Was there a way to say it kindly? All pretty and sensitive?

Nopes. :)

(I am laughing so hard at the typo that I just had to correct.)

Good eye there, Dar.

I could see there was some sort of thing going on between the two women, like Teresa had to back Aubrey up.

This is why women shouldn't work. :-P

I thought Trump was being pretty gentle himself, by saying that Aubrey had skills, just that teamwork wasn't among them and that was a hard way to go but could be done.

Guys tend to get the fighting out of the way up front and then roll forward. Women...not so much.

What I picked up was the need, when confronted or cornered by the others for Aubrey to try to make people pick sides.

Instead of taking the criticism to heart,(that she is a self centered non-team player), and attempting to learn something about being a team player....., Aubrey, further attempts to destroy the team by trying to get the other woman to pick sides and join her. Putting the other woman, who up until then had been pretty neutral, into a hard spot of either staying with the team and working together or protecting Aubrey from her own self.

I wouldn't look at it as the "men being mean" to Aubrey or any other woman IF it were a true statement. If it were NOT true, I would also stand up for her.

True. On a team or group with men, you know where you stand. No hidden messages.

I had a female boss many years ago. She was the best woman at my wedding. Since deceased. We got along great at work and outside of work were best friends.

Sometimes we would have some pretty big, tempestuous and VERY vocal disagreements about procedures or something at work. The other women in the office would be wide eyed with disbelief, hiding in their cubicles. The guys would snicker behind their computers.

As soon as the blow up was over and we figured who was right or who would give in..... we went back to work and often would plan to have a "stress management meeting" later. Meaning, we went to the local bar and had a great time. Yay. Friday stress management meetings!!

No hidden agendas with her. I miss her very much.

Given the choice of working with a bunch of men or a bunch of women, I would take the men as a work crew anytime.

The Dude said...

Me, I am self employed. Have no idea if I am a bad employee or a bad manager. But at least I know where I stand. Or sit. Or lie down. Mmm, nap...

Where does an Irish man go for vacation?

A different bar.

Who were those people?

Talking about has been celebrities: You should hire Robert Reich to be on your show. You guys could argue about politics but then go out and solve crimes in the neighborhood. Reich could be a Mini Me Kato to your Green Hornet.

If good, this could give you material for years!
