So for those of you who read our Day One of The Bachelorette Season Finale post yesterday and got hooked enough to tune in last night, you are surely up to speed and very excited for tonight’s final episode of the finale. For those other readers who instead tuned in to watch Big Ben’s last Harf in the Jungle, let me catch you up.
As I mentioned, last night was Fantasy Suites (read: sex) week. Show opened with soft-ass Ivan having his date with Tayshia where they set a new world record for world’s longest coldest kiss.
Again, I want to point out that there is no excitement to this date. Sure, “I love kissing Ivan so much that I can do it from an ice bath for five and a half minutes!” is nice but is that what we’re going with? BUT THEN they were left alone in some trailer to bang and, I assume, they banged.
Then it was front-runner Zac the Addict’s turn. His date was like a couples body painting thing followed up by some sexy time in a real live suite, which Ivan really should have fought for considering they’re at a Waldorf Astoria property, not a Cruise America drop off location.
I fell asleep during the body painting thing but, according to the Mrs, Zac continued building his lead to upwards of 28-3 at this point as he got Tayshia to break one of the The Bachelorette’s cardinal rules: she told him she loved him! See, typically the bachelorette has to lean on euphemism about “seeing you as my husband” or “can see myself falling in love with you”. When Zac professed his love, Tayshia came right out and was like, “I know I’ve loved you too!”
Then is was Brendan’s turn for sloppy thirdsies. Getting his hands on his future wife with only a ragged hip and a slight concussion (I assume), Brendan was in a position to win over Tayshia’s heart…so long as his date didn’t involve riding a bike. So they meet up and Tayshia has set them up to meet with Neil Lane — of Neil Lane Diamond fame. Basically, it’s an engagement ring selection date but Brendan seems uncomfortable. Next thing you know, BAM!, he’s dumping her, citing an, “it’s not you, it’s me,” excuse, blaming his lack of recovery since his divorce. The internet, in case you were wondering, respected his decision.
So, no need for a rose ceremony if there’s only two guys left, right? WRONG! Ben shows up and tells Chris (the host) he needs to talk to Tayshia about how it all ended for them. Chris, of course, approves and Ben arrives at Tayshia’s room to express his love for her. Tayshia needs a minute. Then we get the promo for tonight:
Tayshia cries! She also kisses Ben, who is shown with a ring. Zac is sad (his SoCal connect probably got locked up). Tayshia’s parents are here and her dad is concerned. Very little mention of Ivan. It’s going to be absolutely fascinating to see how Tayshia’s journey ends.
And for those looking for alternate (non-The Bachelorette) viewing options:

And?
For some reason I never got beyond the first half of season 4 of Better Call Saul. Correcting that now.
Just left PetSmart trying to get a stocking stuffer for the only person in the house that listens to me (actually, she doesn’t, but she is the best one of the bunch). The balls she likes are all out of stock. I may just have to share the duck with her on Christmas.
I think the SNL Christmas stuff is on. If they’ve passed the Robert Goulet Christmas Special, you’re in the clear. Remember, you make it to midnight of Christmas Eve and you win!
It is, and they have
I’m still in, I watched the Blues Brothers on Showtime instead!

I’m not even sorry Ape can’t get a job with them and was lucky to get a byline in the federalist
Mrs Sharkbait and I both lost in the semi finals, so now we face each other for 3rd place. I am disappoint.
Well, now you know how she feels.
/rim shot
I walked right into that one didnt I?
I actually felt bad typing it, but felt like I was obligated to.
its times like these you have to ask yourself……
is your wife willing to withhold sex for $20 dollars and bragging rights?
.
the answer of course is yes, make some bad moves on purpose and give the misses something to enjoy for the holiday
Oh, there’s no doubt you tank this game.
Winner gets anal from the loser?
Thankfully I have Patrick Mahomes then
So ketchup as lube then?
It dries up quicker than you’d think.
Mahomes is kind of hot…
So does she (in dildo form).
Is there any way that we can combine the Tim Allen Marathons with the Holiday Murder Mysteries?
If it’ll help expedite things, I’d be willing to eliminate at least three of those six words.
What, you don’t want to see Tim Allen murdered over the course of 4 hours*?
* is 4 hours a standard marathon time?
In my case, it would be a Scotchy Special (11 hour killing)
Tim Allen Mysteries? No way it’s as good as Mike Tyson Mysteries.
I see you rolled a 7 for Perception.
INTRADAY CALLBACK!!!
Who’s the right wing version of having norm Macdonald on your writing staff?
So i need fantasy advice. I’m in the finals of my money league, and naturally im freaking out
here’s my roster, its 1 Qb, 2 rb, 1 TE, 2 Flex, D/st and a kicker.
“Josh Allen BufQB”
“Deshaun Watson HouQB”
“David Montgomery ChiRB”
“J.D. McKissic WshRB”
“Mike Davis CarRB”
“Peyton Barber WshRB”
“Christian McCaffrey CarRB”
“Tyreek Hill KCWR”
“Chase Claypool PitWR”
“T.Y. Hilton IndWR”
“Darnell Mooney ChiWR”
“Keke Coutee HouWR”
“Travis Kelce KCTE”
“Logan Thomas WshTE”
“Seahawks D/ST SeaD/ST”
“Rams D/ST LARD/ST”
“Daniel Carlson LVK
the real wild card is CMC coming off injury who i do not trust at all
No need to freak out. You’re toast.
I’m sure you’ll want my advice, the guy that was in 1st place is Week 5 and in 5th place at the end of his season.
But I would stay way from McCaffrey. Obviously great production, but Carolina isn’t playing for anything and why would they run their best player out coming off a serious injury with two meaningless weeks left? I suspect at best he’d get a few plays here and there just to see how he was feeling.
what really complicates it is that davis has been such a good pickup for me. if mcafrey starts hes gonna take touches away from one of my most reliable players
There’s probably a legit worry that they give him a shot from the goal line for a feel good TD.
Ok, as someone who is in the DFO League finals, I qualify as an expert (I’m trying to jinx myself so hard it goes all the way around to reverse jinx), so…
QB – TheShaun, but you can’t go wrong either way
RB – Montgomery, starting CAR RB (probably Davis)
WR – Hill, Coutee
TE – Kelce
Flex – Hilton, McKissic (would not argue with Logan Thomas)
D – Rams, because of sacks
K – Carlson?
Can you still do transactions? Might find a better team D on waivers. Same with kicker.
I believe you can.
While the prospect of Travis Kelce having K-CTE appeals to me, I’m not sure that’s what that means.
(that’s when you get CTE from Krokodil)
You gotta take all the fliers in the championship. Leave it all on the field. “What would Nixon do?” kind of shit.
Ford made an ad with most of the cast of Christmas Vacation. I guess Johnny Galecki was too busy counting his Big Bang Theory money to participate
Haven’t seen it, but it seems like Randy Quaid wouldn’t be invited.
Much crazier and more dangerous in real life, that one is.
If my dog started acting like Randy Quaid I’d shoot it without a second thought. And I like my dog.

At least cousin Eddie had the excuse of a plate in his skull
I bet the real-life Randy Quaid also has a vehicle that is hauling around 50 lbs of liquid excrement.
That’s no way to talk about Mrs. Quaid*, sir.
*Mrs. Quaid is also bugfuck nuts.
If she’s currently Mrs Quaid, kinda QED.
I’m not sure we have the same definition of fascinating

The Dr. Mrs. was wearing very short shorts when we walked the dog this evening and I accused her (not joking) of having forgotten to put on pants.
I told her the folks here would be chanting “one of us, one of us” had that indeed been the case.
*not going to ask for pics this time
*think less pervy thoughts
So, you got any home movies of that you want to share? I bet it’s hilarious!
Please tell me that they’ve made at least one “Crazy Ivan”. The few Bachelor shows I’ve watched always had some bad puns
Looks like I put my FunBux behind the wrong offense tonight. C’mon UCF! Do SOME fucking thing!
I put some on the Green Wave today. Did not work out. I have some on Tigres because as Hippo says “Always bet against MLS.”
According to Reality Steve (and it’s embarrassing that I know who Really Steve is),
Ok, how do you do the Spoiler thing??

You put it on the back of your car and it creates downforce.
Ah! Like anal sex!

Oh for fuck’s sa…
GUYS! GUYS! Who owns the red Pinto? Why? Because Balls is fucking it, that’s why!
Anything to claim he’s hung like a horse.
Gumby sent me this one.
Grandpa blew out the Depends!
My wife and daughter are convinced that Tayeshiasunni didn’t bang anyone in the Chlamydia Suites. I disagree.
I feel bad for Ivan, as he seems like a nice guy, but he never stood a chance with the Orange County girl.
She’s from The OC?? Well, that explains a lot.
And yes, you are correct.

Damn that was a nice Mormon catch!
I feel a certain amount of shame wanting UCF to have a victory in this matchup.
Continuing my quest to empty out opened bottles of liquor prior to the move, I’m currently enjoying Whiskey Acre’s chocolate malted rye
That is indeed a noble quest.
I stopped at Starbucks today and got a caramel machiatto, or whatever the fuck they call it. I was bouncing off the walls for hours afterwards. How the hell is it that I can drink diet coke all day and never notice the caffeine, but coffee sends me into maximum overdrive?
I’m guessing that had a lot more to do with the 43 oz. of pure sucrose that was dissolved in the coffee.
Ding Ding Ding
That’s true, but honestly, it happens with black coffee too.
For me, a Tim Allen marathon is > 3 seconds.

Starting tomorrow I’ll have my very first 4 day holiday since 2010. I’m scared. The stress holds my life together at this point.
Keep calming material available at all times. Email to yourself sone spreadsheets..
The Bachelor/Bachelorette series is too much for my taste.
EXCEPT!!… the first episodes of a new season, where people come out of the limo, act a fool, spend the remainder of the night drinking and not eating, and then be petty as all hell. That is the best part of the show.
Since that season where Tony Gonzalez was on, I don’t really pay attention to an actual full season. First 2 episodes max.
Isn’t that how a lot of people watched American Idol in the early seasons? Watch the first couple of episodes where Simon Cowell humiliates really shitty singers, then bail when it’s just the “good” ones left.
The last full season of AI I watched was when Nikko Smith was on, aka Ozzie Smith’s son.
Ok, some thoughts:
1) looks like Brendan got the best outcome.
B) Why do they bring back previous contestants after they’ve been eliminated? As Blax mentioned last week, it’s not a surprise, it’s basically expected at this point.
%) Your photo of Ivan’s Fantasy Suite is chef’s kiss.

Deadliest month in US history. Worse than the Civil War, both World Wars, and the Spanish flu.
Herr Orange spent today bragging about his ratings on Newsmax and OAN.
Too much!

It is what it is.
He did some pretty horrible other shit too.
Before I even read this post, I want to say that anyone that wears dress shoes without socks needs to be put in a time machine and then on either a Russian train headed towards Siberia or a German train headed towards Central Europe.
Agree. Bare ankle bones with dress pants is Mennonite stripper shit.
Oooh Siberia, you can get krokodil there.
Also frostbite.
