men that have never tasted quiche

there is a new season of real world underway.
13th season of real world.
real world: paris

i'm giddy.

sometimes i get completed absorbed by the series and sometimes i can't stand a single episode.
sometimes you get a seattle, sometimes you get a las vegas.
sometimes you get a paris and it restores your faith in mtv's ability to cater to my pop culture needs.

for those of you that don't follow the show, first, i weep for you. second, here's my take on all the cast members after the first five episodes.

ace: good ol' boy from georgia. his grandpa gave him 3 bars to run near his college. which explains why he's in his sixth year. his mom died of breast cancer, so he's sensitive on that subject. two of girls want his junk, but he wants to hook up with mallory to the disdain of leah. he's cool, my second favorite guy of this house.

leah: bitch. i don't like her. i think she is petty and vindictive. i thought she was cute to start with, but the fact that she's a mega be-otch makes me find her vulgar. and i don't think her and mallory are going to be that good of friends with the whole ace being a hunk thingy.

christina: hottie minority girl for the season. things are kind of tense between her and chris. kind of came to a head at the end of episode 5, but i think it will all work out. she works in vegas, "but not as a stripper." i like that little qualification she adds to it. i'm going to guess that she's the most stable chick on this year's show, so she's a good offset of how much i hate leah.

adam: token black guy. kind of a short fuse. he flew off the handle a bit in the earlier episodes. including one memorable one where he told leah that ace's cock was too good for her. she left the room crying. he's gotten better, but i don't see him adding much to the drama happening on the show. but he may shock us and make me proud. his dad was in the commodores, so that makes him a-ok in my book. and i dig the fro.

simon: token gay guy. and he's irish! he's the confidant with the girls, and i haven't seen much interaction with the guys yet, but it's still early in the show. i haven't seen much of him yet, but he seems to be strangely smarter than most of his american counterparts. strange.

mallory: the sweet, soccer-playing virgin that went to iowa state. the youngest on the show. mallory's mom told her one day on the phone not to embarress the family. but then mallory alluded to how she was going to let her family down. which brings us to a small number of possibilities which i rank in order of probability (best to worst): she's an alcoholic, she gives her viginity to ace, she's a lesbian, or she was abducted by aliens in high school. i think she's going to get bitchslapped by leah though, but that's because leah is evil.

chris (ct): my boy from umass. he's my favorite on the show. he's cool. he's got quirky defense mechanisms. he's a good dresser. he's a drinker. he's funny. he's me. i kid you not.

i hope their job (making a student guide of paris) goes well, except for leah. i hope they go to amsterdam for their vacation. i hope chris and christina hook up. i hope leah breaks down and leaves the show like ilene did on seattle. i hope mallory is just a drama queen and she's really ok. i hope adam hooks up with a french chick. i hope they have to have a house meeting about one of the roommates. i hope puck swings by the place for shits and giggles. i hope i hope i hope i hope.
