I snatched the shot back from her and drank it. Then told her that she was being disrespectful and needed to keep her ass moving. My husband and her friend were standing there in shock. Then, my husband started laughing and her friend pulled her away. Her friend later made her come over and apologize. I think that was the most ghetto moment I have had in over a decade. But, I’m sure she learned her lesson.

Now on to an actual problem. Renee and her oldest daughter sit down to talk at a Deli. Renee is freaking out because the father of her youngest daughter – the one who isn’t in prison for murder – is suing her for custody. Renee’s oldest daughter Giana, thinks that her ex-stepfather is using the youngest daughter as a way of getting back at Renee. Renee is hoping that the court system will see it for what it is. But, she isn’t sure she trusts the courts. Maybe it’s just me, but I think if I were facing custody issues with my youngest daughter, I wouldn’t go on a Reality TV show. Especially if the name of said show was called Mob Wives Chicago. It just seems counterproductive when trying to prove that you are the better parent.

Just because I’m a fame whore is willing to put my narcissism before my child’s welfare, doesn’t mean I’m not a good mom.

Now it’s time for the Facebook Face Off. Yes, these women actually scheduled a sit down confrontation to discuss why Nora de-friended Christine from Facebook. And, yes, I did just lose several IQ points from just typing out that last sentence. Nora doesn’t like Christine and thinks it’s ridiculous to even discuss this – and I have to agree with her there. She says that she lost her profile due to a Facebook glitch.

It’s a weak excuse for anyone who uses Facebook as religiously as Christine apparently does. I say that because, most of the time you don’t realize you have been de-friended from Facebook until you either try to send a message to that person or you are obsessively checking your friend count. Zuckerburg was smart enough to make sure that you don’t receive a notification when someone un-friend’s you specifically to avoid these types of awkward conversations.

Nora tries to change direction and says that she doesn’t really like people discussing her father’s hit man status. She says that she will never be friends with Christina and Christina prepares a status update about what a bitch Nora is for de-friending her. Too bad Nora won’t see it though.

So, then Pia meets up with Nora to support her in her search for her father’s dead body. Yes, I did just write that sentence. Nora apparently hasn’t spoken to her family in ages and since her sister and mother handled the burial, she can’t be sure that he is actually in the ground. Nora tells Pia about her meeting with Christina. This bugs Pia because Christine should have tried to make up with her before making up with Nora.

Is Pia living in her car? There seems to be an awful lot of stuff in the back seat.

Christina and Leah meet to discuss the Facebook sit down (it’s all so ridiculous that you would think I could find humor in it, but it’s just so lame). Leah has some choice words about Nora and how she should be dealt with. Christina has decided that since she isn’t a skanky stripper, she is going to be the bigger person and make up with Pia. Then, there is something about Nora getting an envelope from her father’s funeral director and how she wants to choke her sister and I keep trying to stay focused because we are nearing the home stretch.

Finally, Christina and Pia sit down to discuss their fight. They try to keep it calm and the fact that they aren’t completely trashed on alcohol helps. Pia talks about how pissed she is that Christina would dare make up with Nora before even approaching her – you know, since she was he one who got her weave pulled out of her head. She is worried about Christina’s loyalty. She says that she doesn’t care about their 10 year friendship. Christina, rightfully pissed at not having the chance to be the bigger person for the cameras, leaves in an angry huff.

If there were ever a situation where in which I had to choose between cheese and chocolate, cheese would win hands down. I spend my days writing blog posts for the multi-housing industry and my nights harshly judging people who appear on reality shows. If there is the odd weekend in which I am not working, or feeling smugly satisfied about my lack of my own reality show, I will build a blog for my friends. Then, I will spend the rest of my weekend conning other friends, family members, and general acquaintances to donate their talents to help out. I am shameless in my love of free stuff, blue humor, and great or even terrible fiction. I tell my friends that I watch reality shows to feel better about myself. In actuality, I watch them because I am vastly entertained by the things people will do to be famous. When Flipit asked me to join the TVGasm family, I was honored. When he said that I would be paid in Cheetos and M&M's, I was totally in.

    I can’t believe that bitch did that to you Plath.
    You should have pulled a wrench out of your purse and let her have it. What. A. Heffer.

    My ex-husband and I were out a bar once and this guy sent me a drink (don’t look at me? I was CLEARLY with my husband).
    My ex is no joke…6’5″ and built.
    He picked the drink up, tipped it to the guy, drained it, and gave the guy a stare.
    They left. Some days I have no idea what goes on in people’s heads I swear.

    I haven’t watched this epi yet. I am having a hard time getting names to faces on this show..not a good sign.

    @Plath, please give people a blood pressure warning when telling stories like that. My pressure went through the roof reading that. I don’t think you were even ghetto. I think you handle it just fine.

    Now had you snatched her weave and pushed her to the ground that would have been ghetto. (which is what Classy would have done.)

    @sheesh, Hahaha! A wrench! I should start carrying one around just in case as a skank repellent.

    @classy, sorry I didn’t warn you. What was funny was after that incident and my husband finally stopped laughing, I had to text a friend of mine to find out if my behavior could be classified as ghetto. So far everyone I have asked that question has said that the “keep your ass moving” might straddle the line, but the execution of taking her drink back and drinking it before telling her to move it along was perfect.

    If we go by the edited version, Christina started it. It felt fake because there was no reason for the fight at all. Christina was mad because Pia and the other girl squashed their issues so fast. She wanted it to drag out, see some punches thrown. When that didn’t happen, she started it herself against Pia. It was a ratings move clearly. But then, none of the “princesses” are wrapped too tight.

    Plathy, you are waaaaaaaaay classier than I would be. Bitch would have been wearing that shot.

    You husband is a sweetie too. You are good for each other.

    I am a transplanted Chicagoan and I just can’t watch these women trash the city I love. We. Are. Not. Like. That. Okay, they are everywhere, but most of us aren’t. And I so agree that a woman wanting to keep custody should keep better company.

    I find the fact that you had to ask if your actions were “ghetto or not” is hilarious.

    Classy gets upset because she doesn’t deal well with dispespect.
    At all.

    I can’t take this shit show…I forget that it is on, find it on a rerun and then can only get through 10 minutes before I have to turn it off…I totally think that Nora’s dad isn’t “dead”! I think that he is WPP and no one in her family wants to tell her that! Isn’t she the one that has no idea that her dad was MOB?!? Or is that someone else? I just know that she is CRAZY!!

    Oh, I have a crazy story for you, happened to me the other night..side note, I used to sign in with facebook-AlisonZimmerman- so you may know me, my pict would show up, so most of you know my age-32 don’t look a day over 20…pissed off 1 to many Delusonia pageant moms hence the new screenname….

    So I was walking back to the house from taking the garbage out to the curb. I see on of our neighbors. Give him a polite head nod and half a smile. He says to me, “hey, can I ask you a question?”. “Sure”, I say. He says to me,” so, you got any singe friends”. Yeah let me get right on that ass hole! I am thinking to myself as I am walking back to the house, Wow he must really like them young! Gross Gross Gross!! Can’t wait to tell MR Z that when he gets home!

    Personally I am against alcohol abuse (spilling drinks, throwing them on people, etc), so I think taking the drink and drinking it was the right thing to do.

    @Sheesh that’s right. Classy don’t play that (in my Homey the Clown voice)

    @Classy..sorry to go off topic, but we have no forums. Are you watching “Love and Hip-Hop, Atlanta” ?
    I need to get Rodel to put it on the DVR list.

    Plath sorry that happened to you. Maybe she is emulating Carol from RHONYC. Sheesh not all of us Midwesterners are heifers :)

    The best part of the whole show was with Leah’s dad telling her to stay out of it (Christina and Pia) since it doesn’t involve her. “Ah you just like the drama.” It’s odd common sense shows up in reality tv so I feel it must be highlighted.

    It’s not that I don’t want to like the show, I am getting tired of the same old same old fighting.

    Maybe Pia and Danielle can open an over the hill strip club.

    Classy, I am so with you about alcohol abuse. Even if I spill a drop, I call it a libation to the Great God Rah.

    Buggy & sheesh, I’m with Kthxy too, so would you friend me too? My pic is there and one of me and Michael, my guy/gay bestie. I prefer the furry one. Gasmii would give me more incentive to watch my FB.

    yea, Christina totally started that fight. Pia was so confused because she and Nora had already hugged it out. Nora was like, “Yea, I called you a whore but i was probably drunk and talking shit.” Pia was like, “Cool.” They really didn’t want to beef with one another..but christina was itchin’ for a fight. If you’ll recall, she also called Nora’s dad a the forbidden word…hitman. But Nora didn’t rise to the bait. Then after Nora and Pia hugged it out, Christina was like, “No! nora, you called her a whore!” Pia told her to chill but Christina wouldn’t and they started arguing with Christina saying she was dragged into this because Pia told her about it. *scratches head* Anyway, Pia told her to build a wall and get the fuck over it but I guess Christina is paid by the blows because bitch earned her keep! First she threw a drink and then she lunged. That’s when shit got real.

    1. @PlathAddict – bitch needed to get to steppin’. And if that’s ghetto, when then I’ll join the ghetto army with you because you did what needed to be done.

    2. @thisbuggs4u – you are like in the Gasmii Relocation Program! Do you hang out in the same clubs as people in witness protection? Do you ever see Norah’s dad? P.S. I’m single and creeper neighbors are right up my alley! I’m 33 so maybe I’m too young for him though…

    3. Was it my imagination or was there an awful lot of disposible drinkware used in these people’s homes? Leah was using a plastic cup at what’s her face’s house and Renee was using a styrofoam cup for her coffee at home. What’s the deal? I thought these broads were classy? I mean, I used disposible everything at my house because I’m too lazy to do the dishes, but I never considered them classy.

    4. Thank you PlathAddict for recapping this – while this was on TV, I wasn’t paying incredibly close attention (contrary to my plastic drinkware pickup). I don’t know how much more I’ll be able to handle watching it and your recaps are much more entertaining.

    I heard that Nora’s dad is dead, she had already seen the body, but they decided to dig up her father anyway. Which is sick, especially if they did it just for a story line. Apparently her family is upset by that.

    @ Sheesh…I am watching. It seems staged. There is a love triangle and the man left with the side piece in front of the main girl/baby mama.

    If you catch the repeat you will understand what I am saying about staged.

    I’ll probably keep watching just because it’s my city, but it might be too over the top…and that’s saying a lot because I like my shows with trashy women, sluts, and booze bags.

    I read there will be a televised abortion on Love and Hip Hop Atlanta. If that is shown, and/or staged, then folks really fail at life.

    Sheesh, you found me :)

    ChickenLips, that dude is totes weird! I have seen him many times. Our Condo Complex is pretty small. We live in the back, so I see him from time to time walking to the curb and what not. But I mean, really, way to make an impression. I finally said, no sorry, but My Hubby might know some single ladies, he isn’t due back for another month or so. He said to me, ” oh all the single navy ladies know where I live”. With that I just kept on walking!! I am thinking he maybe likes, fluffy white chicks…IDK though, it was all weird and kind of gross. Chicken, being 32 myself, I would say that maybe you aren’t :) heehehee!

    Hahaha! I love that you guys tote hijacked the thread with Facebook. It’s just so meta! Also, thanks for the support with the whole “bitch overstepped her boundaries” topic. My husband thought it was hilarious that I snatched a drink out of her hand and even asked if I was going to beat a bitch down “Bad Girls” style. He knows that I don’t get jealous. I just make sure that bitches know their place. Because I’m classy like that. :)

    i also agree that mw chi is trying too hard to be the cool kids, but hopefully they’ll get as wrapped up in their own drama they’ll get it fixed. Leah seems hilarious, and my be the only reason to watch except i wish they’d subtitle her, so we can learn a new language and at least say it’s got educational value.

    Plath, i looked at picuture of pizzaria ( i’ll always see that now, thanks :) in her car, and it just looks like normal chicago gear: giagantic winter coat, super big purse, mittens and gloves, hat and scarf, plus spares since stuff gets lost….so in winter, we kinda have to be prepared and to awlla you non winter type people, looks like we’re haulin alota crap, ya know…..
