Ahahahah I just saw this (but that unfortunately means you probably won’t see this 😔). I started listening to Gaga when I was literally 8. She forreal is like a mother to me, especially with my most cherished memory being the Monster Ball with my (now passed) mother, and she openly invites that with her fans.

Probably more info than needed, but yeah. Not into the whole Mother Monster/Little Monster thing but man do I fucking love that woman more than I can put into words.

He’s got a good future in a Maroon 5 cover band.

Lots of people call Lady Gaga “mom”. Stereogum even did it once!

I’m just dumb. Can you explain what this means?

Huhhh. I’ve never seen this show, do they all give off that much sexual predator energy?

(oh, p.s. for the love of God nobody take this as shade towards my mother’s first film)

Right? I was JUST curious enough and this article satisfied that curiosity. Once I saw the ASIB comparisons in the Hulu ads I was like “oh man I hope someone on the Gum has time to dig into this”

You are correct. Perhaps for the first time in your wretched existence

jesus

It would be futile because he would shatter the bars with that falsetto

lifelong commitment* sry I got excited. watch Love is Blind, people, it’s the fuckin worst and I loved everything about it except the Lacheys.

THAT’S THE BEST PART!!! THEY ARE ENTERING INTO A (theoretically) **LIFELONG** AFTER BLIND SPEEDDATING FOR LIKE 36 HOURS.

The common element in all these reality shows is the cringe factor. Many people apparently find the cringe factor enjoyable, which is why crap like this gets on the air. I don’t find it the least bit enjoyable. Vicarious shame to me is still shame.

Did Julia to the Downton Abbey write-ups? Because those were the BEST. I still say to people in the Daisy voice “What-fae?”

Oh shit I didn’t notice that.

Holy shit, I’ll never forgive you. I put that Love is Blind show on and within 30 minutes two of these people expressed their love for each other. I cannot pads.

I agree. I love trash like this but can only fill so much of my time with it. This article gave me what I needed, including a few good laughs.

The show we have come to know and love?
And to those who think it’s cool to watch just to crack jokes about it; REALLY!? It’s not even worth joking about.

Most of the women and a few of the men at my office watch these reality love shows. We even have a Slack channel dedicated to it.

Yeah Julia brought the acerbic, matter-of-fact smackdown on this and it was de-lish

I can’t stand the Bachelor but at least half of my friends and family watch it, and a few of them make pretty entertaining live-tweets/Instagram stories reacting to it.

I did love Love is Blind however. That was the real batshit schadenfreud sauce.

Definitely need a witchouse contestant who just smokes Newport’s and looks geeked the whole time.

Yeah, but Julia wrote it, so it’s totally worth reading. Videogum reunion tour? Time feels right.

In 10 years, Powfu will be competing behind a mask and costume alongside Sarah Palin, as Blackbear takes over the #1 spot with “Hot Middle-Aged Woman Winter.”

But he likes her lips! 😬

annnnd I did not realize it was in the article but also I wasn’t going to read an entire article about this garbage so whatever.
