Watching TAR with Wannietta - part 12.10
Oh yeah, he totally pushed her!
If anyone can go ripping over a speed bump it's TK & Rachel!
How many "Who's your Daddy?" shirts can one man own (and wear)?
When did they start playing "Nice Jen & Nate"?
You're doing just fine Donald - you do old guys everywhere proud.
That's a mighty high building.
Poor Nate, stuck at the back of the elevator. Kinda sad that Jen is kicking your ass at the running so far.
Quite the trash-talkin' mouth you've got there Nick.
I guess we'll see who plays like bitches tonight.
OMG - Thai food comes from Taiwan. His Taiwanese friends are probably from Korea. Does Nate dye his hair?
let there be only one set of seat on the 1:00 flight and let Kristina & Ron get them!!
Oh Kristina, bad Karma.
Poor Jen again - maybe everybody should just let you in front of them and make it easy today since it's your birthday.
I know baby, it sucks to be cute & blonde and not win/get everything that you want.
- they caught up!!
Could Jen look any more miserable and pissed off? I think that she's forgetting that they have an entire extra task to perform.
Well Nick, I guess TK & Rachel aren't playing like bitches so far.
Acrobatics Jeep - I can't wait to see what that entails.
Jen should consider seeing someone to work through some of her entitlement & resulting anger issues.
Awesome - that was nice.
By a slim margin but still in 2nd!
Good one for Ron - he doesn't actually have to do anything. And I'm sure that TAR wouldn't show someone
.
I think that Kristina is enjoying this a little too much!!
Payback's a bitch!!
I love that Kristina is so fluent in Japanese!
As speed bumps go this is kind of cool and I totally think that they'll be able to do it with
.
You're covered in protective gear - no worries.
See - easy-peasy!
Jen will go absolutely thermal if TK & Rachel make the train!
TK & Rachel slack off?!? How do you figure? They had to do an extra task man!
Oh I see. Because you're a high-strung, uptight, entitled (which reallydoes have to be a lot more work) and they're actually enjoying this experience
And on your birthday too!
Fire
or Earth 
?
Fire looks like fun! THAT is supposed to reduce stress?!?
You made the call Ron - just you remember that.
Crazy
white bitch screaming at the 
will almost certainly make him want to go faster.
Jen should really see a
I'm sure that there are medicinal remedies for those moods swings.
Ron was really into that.
Kristina & Ron have got it going on today!! He's even being nice. I'm so glad that Kristina persevered and kept her cool with him. It's really paid off.
You made the call to take the subway Jen - it's on you. Nate's asked you twice now about taking the cab.
Oh, now you want him to make a decision.
Alright Nate - don't let her bitch slap you on this one.
THIS is the self-destruction that I was hoping for last week.
Way to go Kristina & Ron!!!
Way to work it out TK & Rachel!
Nick & Don right behind them.
Jen & Nate are a bit lost ... they found the stone path.
TK & Rachel and Nick & DOn are having a hard time finding an English-speaking cabbie.
- amazing!!!
C'mon Nick & Don - you cannot let Jen & Nate win!
This is just too much ... Jen and Nate are GONE!!!
What's this sappy drivel? Your relationship had no hope on this race - you had way too many issues coming into it! Suck it up buttercup.
Given that Ron has really made some changes and is fairly likeable now I'm kind of torn over which team that I'll be rooting for. Maybe I'll just be one of those mostly impartial reporters. Yeah, that's it. I'll cheer for TK & Rachel and Kristina & Ron and may the best team win!!

Definition of "Wannietta"
I get asked a lot about the origin of my name. I usually just tell people that my mother was really heavily sedated.
But really she liked the Spanish "Juanita" but wanted it to be Canadian. And we all know that Canada is like a melting pot - so she just threw in the alphabet and started picking letters out. "Wanita" is a variant of the traditional Native American "Waneta" so I guess if we play fast and loose with the associations then she's not too far off the mark.
Kristina knows how much I love the Quizes, and while I'm sure that I've done this one before, it's a keeper so I'm happy to post it again.
Of course, this one is also apt.

File Under: WTF?
Okay, so back in the fall Amanda & I went in search of a snow suit and we found the one that she loved at WalMart. It was cheap enough, especially considering how hard she is on clothes, so we bought it.
When we got home she cut off the price tags and looked for the magnetic, anti-theft tag. She's pretty good at finding them - the Old Navy hides them like there's money riding on it! She couldn't find one so I didn't give it much thought.
(See - nothing here!) Maybe WalMart just trusts people.
Then every once in a while she'd beep going into and coming out of some stores - most notably the Sobeys in town. Amanda taken to wearing a different coat if she knew that we were going there. I'd just tell her to keep walking - I honestly can't be bothered stopping, walking back to the CS desk with the entire store watching just to have them scan everything after I try explaining that she just beeps!
Yesterday one of the diligent CS ladies at Sobeys came after us. I explained my sad story and she said that there was probably a tag. I sucked up the sarcastic retort that came unbidden to the tip of my tongue and without rolling my eyes explained that I'd looked for one and couldn't find it. She said that it's sometimes in the back neck tag. I thanked her and we left.
When we got home Amanda checked and she said that she could feel one. So I looked & felt.
Who the fuck in their right minds would HIDE a magnetic, anti-theft tag inside the jacket label? 
Which is sewn down?!? 
Whatever - so I snipped a few threads figuring that the magnetic, anti-theft tag would just slip out.
The Moron who would put a magnetic, anti-theft tag inside a sewn-down label was a freakin' Mensa-level genius next to the fucktard who would SEW DOWN the magnetic, anti-theft tag UNDER the sewn-down jacket label AND label it thusly:
How, in any of the possible multi-verses, by any stretch of the imagination (and when I say "imagination" I mean like Tad Willams, Terry Pratchett or Clive Barker scale imagination!!) was I supposed to guess that there was a tag under there?!? Really.
My incredulity now knows it's outer limit!!
