Ok, so I really hate giving into the hype for things like this. I was reluctant to even discuss The Bachelor because I know it's all ABC's master plan to do things the way they did to get more hype. I realize by blogging about it, I am contributing to the hype but whatever. Freaking CNN is talking about The Bachelor and my blog has a whole 64 followers, which is great, but it's not like it's gonna make headlines or anything. Plus I promised my friend Elaine that I would re-cap it for y'all that are boycotting it like Daily Jen. **WARNING: SPOILERS FOLLOW! DON'T CONTINUE IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED YET!*** So, in case you've been living under a rock for the past day, here's my recap of The Bachelor finale! Basically it was down to Melissa & Molly. He picks Melissa, proposes, then 6 weeks later he dumps her in front of all of America. (In his defense I did learn that he is under a $5 million contract that requires him to do this.) Then, he brings back Molly and asks her for another chance, telling her he made a mistake, blah blah blah. That was last night... Then tonight there was more! Tonight was The Bachelor: After the Final Rose pt. 2, or as Jen put it After After the Final Rose! haha Tonight was filmed 6 weeks after the show last night, so in total, 12 weeks after the Season Finale when he proposed. Tonight, they brought back Jason & Molly & they said how happy they were... blah blah blah. The audience got to give their opinions about what went down on last nights show, and I was surprised at how mixed the reactions were... I expected the audience to be full of Team Molly members! They made really good points... one guy (yes a guy was at The Bachelor show!) pointed out that if he were as emotional after saying goodbye to someone as Jason was after saying goodbye to Molly, he wouldn't have gone from that to proposing to someone else. I couldn't agree more! I've seen other seasons where they say I like you, but I'm not ready to propose. What is so wrong with that?!! I guess it's not good enough for ABC... They also brought back some of the rejected Bachelorette's before the final 3, who they said were some fan favorites. Um... I have to ask whose favorites these women were?! It was Naomi, Kari (who I don't even remember), Erica (drama queen), a few others who I don't remember, and Stephanie (who is okay, but not my favorite personally). They gave their opinions on what Jason did, and surprise! They pretty much defended him... I don't know about you, but that surprises me! Then, Jason came back and told everyone he really cares about Molly, and if he didn't, he wouldn't go through all the hype he did to get to this point. They said they've spent a few weekends together in the past 6 weeks, and things are going "really well." They both look really happy... so I'm happy for them. I was always torn between Molly & Melissa! They are both so charming in different ways. I still disagree with the way the whole dumping thing played out, but I wouldn't back out on a $5 million contract either... not gonna lie! Then, finally, they announced the next Bachelorette! Jillian will be the next Bachelorette.. airing May 18th (I'm pretty sure that's the right date). I'm really excited about this; I always liked her from the beginning! Her & her hot dog theory cracked me up on the 1st show! So, overall tonight made me hate Jason less, and I decided Molly & Jason are cute... but I still feel horrible for Melissa that every television station is replaying the proposal and the break up over & over again... plus the new People magazine is featuring Jason & Molly on the cover declaring their love some more! Here are some highlights you have to see/read if you haven't already: Jason on Jimmy Kimmell Jesse Csincsak's thoughts on the finale (The guy DeAnna chose over Jason in case you forgot who he is).

Funny Comments #6!
Ok, so one more time.. I'm going to beg someone to make a button for this. Eventually I will stop asking, but I felt like trying one more time at least! Also, I think I'm going to re-name this either "Say What!?" or "They said what?!"... feedback would be appreciated! (I'm also open to better suggestions). Moving right along, here are this weeks highlights of funniness (ok now I'm making up words) "I wish I were a 7" "Um you're a 10!" "Shut up!!" "um... that's a good thing..." "Oh... I thought you were telling my clothing size!" "My sister is super skinny and 1 day I was telling her '2 of you would cover like half of me' and she goes 'yeah, but you have nice teeth!'" "When I was in high school I wanted turrets so bad!" "My perfume smells like vodka..." "ooo!! You should mix it with like a citrusy scent and then it will be like a screwdriver with a flower!" "I'm giving up random hook ups for lent." "Good for you!" "I know I'm gonna do it! Oh no wait I'm not gonna do it that's the thing!" "I went to the gyno and my mom asked her if I could get an infection from wearing thongs too much!" "My mom goes to the movies and gets popcorn and takes it home with her... like she doesn't even watch the movie. She just buys popcorn and leaves! Do you know how crazy that looks!?" (Conversation between 2 girls) "Have you ever had a hickey!?" "No." "Omg. I want to give you a hickey! I'm gonna go in your room when you're sleeping & tackle you & give you the biggest hickey ever!" "I feel like whenever I go over there I always meet guys who I think are really cute, but then they turn out to be not so cute at all when I see them in pictures the next day... I think it's because they always turn the lights off over there!" "I was so drunk somehow I ended up losing my pants & walking down the stairs in my underwear at the frat house." "I'm really good at flirting and getting guys to buy me drinks but for some reason I'm not good at making them want to come home with me..."
