As far as cutting, I always thought it was an attention grabber. Most cutters cut the part of the arm that is visible. If it wasnt for attention, theyd cut somewhere that is covered by clothes.

Jonna sure has a interesting outlook...saying that she'd be upset if her boyfriend pulled the shit she pulls, but she's still going to be flirty and lead guys on because she has 'confidence.' I'd say WTF, but this is isn't a unique trait from women.

I now this is a few days late, but I was sad to see Joey get fired and had to leave Cancun. Along with Bronnie he was my favorite guy in the house. It just made me pissed to see Ayiia laughing about it.

Joey would have laughed if Ayiia was sent home as well so I'm not going to hold that against her.
Who doesn't have an alarm clock? I have a hard time feeling sorry for the guy seeing as he was partying the night before and he was already on probation. I don't like that the "job" has control over who stay and who goes on the show though.

All I know is if I'm living rent free in paradise getting ass by default and literally all I have to do is show up to "work" - I'm showing up to work. Get a friggin' wake up call.
I want to go to the place where Bronne is getting a Playboy model.

Yep. Joey is nothing but a douchebag. No excuse for his bullshit. Set your own alarm clock.
That being said, I've never cared for the work-portion of RW. I can't remember when they started it, but it's always been lame.
I only wonder if they edited it to make it seem like they made him fly home within hours of his final transgression. If it wasn't an edit and he had to fly home so soon, that's pretty harsh.

That being said, I think Jonna is the worst of them all with her relationship double-standards, constant teasing and flirting, and throwing the dude's obvious desire to get into her pants right in Jasmine's face. She tries to hide this uncaring/unfeeling character trait by playing innocent and nice.
And I still can't understand these idiots' problems with getting to work on time. Not one of them can set an alarm clock? Even though I hate the job aspect of Real World, it would be pretty funny if they sent them all home and replaced them.

wtf? since when is it your employer's fault that you didn't go to bed until 4:30 and you're too stupid to figure out how to set an alarm clock?

I'm not a fan of the whole Student City thing this season. I don't like that they control who stays and who goes.
They've conditioned us to see these kids party but now this work nonsense is keeping them from taking advantage of that fully. I hope they get rid of the job aspect in DC.

I don't think it's a big deal. They get to live in Cancun for a while and all they're required to do is work a laid back part-time job. I've gone out late before and still made it to my jobs on time. Plus, they're not working everyday or even every morning. There's still plenty of times to get hammered at night if they want.

I think it's always been that way. On the Hollywood one, Greg was kicked off because he kept missing work stuff.

Yeah Brooklyn didn't and that the only one in recent memory that I've watched all the way through like this season. I know that had to do the thing for that horrible Pedro movie but I think that was it.

Last week was kind of annoying when the ad for the after show let us know he was kicked off before it happened.
