[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 132411, member: 8"] I didn't do that but it's such a fun topic, so here's some Bitching Extra Time: [ATTACH=full]12444[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]12445[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]12446[/ATTACH] The last comment seems to suggest that the insult was meant to be taken metaphorically. But one of the things [S]we[/S] I hate the most about Jamie happens to be...her mouth. So, like the case with Valene, it seems odd that the writers would draw the audience's attention to a realistic flaw. Because soap babes are supposed to be sexy and pretty, and well - perfect. The most bizarre, and maybe nastiest insult ever is actually not an insult at all. [ATTACH=full]12447[/ATTACH] Because it's not really about that nurse. She's just emphasizing and exaggerating her victim-y situation (none of the Carringtons bothered to tell her about LB). It's totally realistic, it's how real people talk when they want to lash out. And yet, to criticize a supporting cast member - in a such a glamorous and [B]not so realistic[/B] setting - seems extremely vile and inappropriate. It's not bitchy-funny or anything like that. After all these years I still don't know what to think of it. It's just...bizarre! [/QUOTE]
