Okay, ladies! This is my first post so go easy on me but I read your board all the time. You all crack me up. So, here is the thing? I know it's been said before but seriously, what the hell is Lisa (Tall Lisa) doing there? If her problem is depending on people (and that may not be it but I would think it would be)then why have there been no attempts to make her independent? Has anyone actually seen her "steps"? I'm sure they gave her some but I have seen nothing that even remotely resembles Lisa growing the hell up and getting a life of her own. I am seriously wondering if the SO house is her new retirement community or perhaps the LC's have given in and said "yeah, you do need somebody to take care of you so we will find a sucker".
Lisa does not strike me as very smart but she is very judgemental (uh, like me and a total hypocrite. I swear, as much as I despised XXXtina (oh, don't get me started..), how is Lisa any different? She sleeps with men for dinner and trips? At least that is the impression I got from some of her blank conversations with other HGs. The reason I compare her to XXXtina is because I have noticed in reruns that she was really judgemental about XXXtina and her "hustle". The only difference between the two of them is that Lisa hustles her parents and XXXtina didn't have that luxury (i.e. I don't think her parents were exactly rich or anything). She had to hit the streets.
I guess my question is does she have any steps and what the hell are they because the woman is getting nowhere fast? I can't beleive Rhonda hasn't thrown her out on her #####, already. If she fake cries one more time about anything I am writing them a letter, I swear (oh, and that is such a lie, I seriously doubt I would take the time).
Anyway, the woman drives me insane and I am just curious if she has reached any steps because I watch a lot but I do miss an episode here and there, so please feel free to put in my place if I am missing something.
Also, maybe it's the editing but I don't see why everyone is so hard on Kim. IMO, she is the one who has been through the most and I feel really sorry for her. The poor girl was viciously abused through her childhood. I would just think people would have more compassion for her but maybe there is something that I am missing. I really thought XXXtina treated her horribly and Jill is doing the same. They could find better ways to talk to her about her behavior if it that's bad and one way would be a one on one with her that was sincere not a group bashing.
Yikes! I talk (write) too much. Sorry!
