The Bachelorette - Dummies and Jerks

After weeks of waiting, the Masked Man finally removed his industrial strength mask and said the most romantic line, "Hi, I'm Jeff."  haha.  They didn't even really show Ashley's reaction.  It cut to her interview thing where she said he was old looking.  We're going to miss you Jeff, and all of the stories about your 3-legged dog.  


This episode was all about the Bentley.  I am very confused with the whole Bentley situation.  There have been contestants in the past who have turned out "not to be there for the right reasons" but they at least pretended to like the bachelorette when they were talking to the camera.  So even if he was there to promote his business, who is going to want to support the business of a guy who says on national television that he wants someone to "tickle his pickle"?  Very classy.  I feel sorry for his daughter who is bound to see clips of this at some point.  I also feel sorry for her because her parents named her Cozy.  Good luck on your trampoline business Bentley...and also good luck getting a girlfriend in the future.  I hear Emily may be available now, I'm sure she was probably flattered by all of the compliments you gave HER while on a show about dating Ashley.


And now a letter to William:


Dear William,


William, William, William.  Sigh.  You really blew it buddy.  Let me break it down for you mistake by mistake.  Mistake #1: Thinking this was your big comedy break.  Usually, becoming a comedian takes more work than being on a reality dating show.  Don't expect to be roasting celebrities one month later...especially after bombing on stage.  Mistake #2 Bad joke choice.  Hey dummy, you know how when you are in a job interview and they ask what your weaknesses are?  And you are supposed to say things like "I work too hard and I care too much"?  That same principle applies to this situation.  You could have made fun of Ashley for being so petite or for being overly effusive, but no.  You made jokes about how all of the guys wish she wasn't there.  Smooth move, dummy.  Mistake #3 Telling her the only logical thing to do was for you to leave.  If you had been paying attention you would have realized that saying you were going to leave was the worst possible thing you could have said.  Ashley made it clear that one of her biggest fears was that the guys would show up hoping for Emily and then turn around and leave when they saw it was her.  So William, when you tried to smooth things over by saying the damage had been done and that you should probably just go home, you made it worse.  Luckily, she has a thing for cellular telephone salesmen and decided to keep you around to get a discount on her bill.  


Yours Truly,


Karen
