This week was a hoot for me to watch and if I were a psychiatry student I could probably write an entire dissertation on the pathology of rock n roll love and the idiots that fall for bad boys. Honestly, I fell for one myself. Okay, maybe it was twice but I learned my lesson and now can only be manipulated by men with large wing-wangs and even larger bank accounts. Shout out to my baby- I love you! Muah!!
In this episode, 12 Pack and Flex are becoming the Rowan and Martin of reality. They continually make fun of the other guys which is highly entertaining and borderline mean. Pretty much the way I like it. Imagine if you were stuck in a "mansion" with these assholes. You too would make fun of London for frying his hair with a flat iron when it ends up looking exactly the same as it did before he used it, like 12 Pack does. He may have that horrible chin strap facial hair but at least he doesn't fall into the category of being premeditatively fake dishevelled. Are you really a punk who hates the world or are you just mad at your Daddy as Flex asked last week? We shall find out, Gasmii, we shall find out..
Let's begin with our Ambiguously Gay Duo. Mr Peepers is doing side crunches and push-ups on the floor of the room he shares with TT, as the chinister one looks on from his bottom bunk (yeah, I almost called him that instead of TT. I hate chin landing strips with a passion).
There is a rift in their love. I feel a shift in the emotions that were so strong when they first arrived and it is not good. Will Daisy come between them? Can their love survive an open relationship? Will Mr Peepers ever stop flossing with TT's pubes? I can't stand the suspense! Such agony! TT leaves the room after making a meanie remark about Peeper's exercise 'O' face. Don't be nasty, we all know that you're just mad because it's been so long since he's made it just for you.
Back to them later. Riki Fonzarelli and Daisy call the boys into a room full of music equipment and we get our next challenge. They have to perform a song for Daisy! Ha ha! Now we'll see who's a real rock star and who's a big phony. Can't wait! But there's a twist. They have to base their songs on tunes that Daisy liked as a kid. No, not 'Pour Some Sugar on Me' or 'Girls, Girls, Girls,' but nursery rhymes. And, they'll be performing live at The Knitting Factory. Excuse me for a moment while I go grab that barf bucket. I must be prepared.
The teams are headed by guys that are already in bands so that no single group can hog all the, ahem, talent. The first group is 6 Gauge, Big Rig and Flex. 6 Gauge made the bold move of picking his team based on their BMI and not their actual music experience. Or maybe he just can't stand to be around a bunch of skinny pansies. It's a toss-up.
London picks Cage because he heard him singing in the shower (brilliant!) and TT picks 12 Pack. This is getting sad. Poor Peepers can't beleive his eyes. "Why, master, why?" I'll tell you why. TT picked 12 Pack because TT is a coward who is turning on his friend, not because 12 Pack can play drums. I watched the outtakes and everyone in the house bashes Mr. Peepers for being an ass kissing pussy and TT stabbed him in the back. If you didn't hate the chinister one before, feel free to do so now.
London picks Mr. Peepers which leaves Fox on TT's team. That's right, foxy Fox got picked last. God, he's dumb, and he keeps getting dumber. In interviews he states the obvious: that London "picked me due(sic) to the fact that he had no more to chose from." I'm so relieved to discover that he grasped the situation so perfectly. Someone please send the short bus to pick him up NOW.

you know i really like 12 pack. i was kinda starting to dig him on the first love money b/c he actually seemed pretty loyal on the show and now i like him even more. glad he's growing on you. he and flex seem to have this odd friendship / rivalry thing going on too... i hope it comes down to them.

So I am actually a psychology student in college (close enough to psychiatrist, just can't prescribe drugs. Sorry). Anyway, I am really tempted to try using that whole rock and roll love/bad boys thing for my dissertation. Of course I would give you full credit, Twunty, but then perhaps I would fail the course. Maybe I should just stick to diagnosing reality stars with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.

Flex is a pretty great character for the show, but he'd be awful to be around in real life. The outtake with ChiChi started to get a little uncomfortable.
Although he definitely got Chichi's number. What a douche. Probably listens to Barry Manilow while he oils up his tattoos. And sings a long with his high-pitched girly voice.
And yeah, 12 pack kind of grows on you. He actually seems sane amid all these rejects.
As for London...the eyeshadow....pfft.

20 Pack won a place in my heart forever when he got eliminated on ILNY. First the cameras caught him laughing and relieved aboot being given the boot, then he says to the crew "OK, you want me to try and look sad?" Cue 12 Pack- take 2- fake crying. It was hilarious.
6 Guage moved himself WAY up on my list of hotties with his pantsless dance. BTW, thanks for that picture, Twunty!

If I were going to be in a disfuntional relationship with any of these dudes it would be with Flex!
Sure, Fox is pretty(dumb) but Flex would provide, laughter, decent face, nice body, perhaps awesome sex...then he would totes dump my ass. But at least I wouldn't have to hear his sob stories and spend a month's salary spraying for bed bugs afterwards (I'm talking to YOU, Joshua Lee R.P.)

not to be a debbie downer...BUT you said something about wondering if Daisy had a Dad, and well sadly I watch all of these Vh1 shows, and I remember on Rock of Love when it was time for the parents to visit she didnt have a Mom OR a Dad to come visit, she said she hadnt had either one in her life since she was like 14 or something...so yes there's gotta be some issues there.

Not to worry here4beer, it WILL be 20-pack. Soon after he turns 30.

Darling Twunty,
I so wish these guys were literate enough to blog, it would be hysterical to read their takes on these episodes. I'd give a lot to know if 6 Gauge has a mother who saw his little, er, big dance. I'm sure maternal pride would have no bounds.
Love you madly.
Hugs,
Yenta

Sterling recap, T Mc.
Just wanted to point out it's the imaginary fourth wall... The other three walls surround the performer.
Your recaps are so great I think I'm gonna have to start watching. Convincing my guy to sign on will be tough, not being much of a fan of man-skanks.

Has anyone noticed that Cage looks like a an almost pretty, albeit a very butch lesbian? Or is it just me?
And Daisy's face doesn't make sense to me. I just don't get it. Sometimes it looks okay. Almost pretty at times. But then other times it just looks like she is suffering from fetal alcohol syndrome. And he top lip never moves- too much botox? She is just so strange looking it is hard to describe.
