Who Was the Most Heinous Person on Reality TV This Week?

Hey everybody, welcome to the very first officially summer edition of heinous reality star bashing! This week runs the gamut from misogynists to terrible mothers to drunks (the most reliable nominees in the world) to crazy ladies scaring me with dolls. Let's get right into it: five nominees; one most horrible winner.

Josh Duggar, 19 Kids and Counting
In addition to his creepy gushing about how he just loooooves birthing classes and the fact that he made his eight-months pregnant wife go on a Duggar cross-country book tour in a damn bus, he also got bored during her lengthy -- and painful -- labor at home and decided to take a nap while his mother and sisters stayed up to deliver Anna's baby on a toilet. (Speaking of, how would you like your husband to insist that your mother-in-law deliver your baby? Nice thought, isn't it?) And TLC would still have you believe they are the romance of the century.

Phyllis, Hoarders
Phyllis is a doll hoarder. Her house is full of nothing but thousands of terrifying dollar store dolls, which is already upsetting enough for me (seriously, I'd rather take my chances with the feces and expired food hoarder houses), but to make matters even worse, if that's possible, Phyllis has designated one of the rooms in her house to be the "doll hospital," where she spends her days and nights dismembering "sick" dolls and Frankenstein-ing new dolls with all of their parts. Which means those doll carcasses are not only disturbing to look at, they're probably also pissed. That is the stuff of horror movies.

Yolanda, 16 & Pregnant
This week's teen father had a particularly dysfunctional family, headed by his mother Yolanda, a drug addict prone to fits of boundless rage. She told her son she wished she had aborted him, and then tried to fight his pregnant girlfriend, shouting, quote, "I'll fuck her up; I don't care if she's pregnant!" So: she's both mother and person of the year.

Adam and Ty, The Challenge: Rivals
Ty for being an egregiously obnoxious ass to everyone in his path, and Adam for resorting to violence to shut him up, and accidentally annihilating Mandi in the process. Though to be honest, Ty was so irritating that if the Mandi collateral damage hadn't happened, I'd have probably let Adam slide for smacking him.

Kris Jenner, Keeping Up With the Kardashians
Kris is always awful, but she gets double points this week. First, for that whole ridiculous incident involving her thinking that she's entitled to a key to Scott and Kourtney's house so she can barge in unannounced every day like some walking monster-in-law cliché. And second, for pushing yet a fourth daughter (Kendall, who is only 15) into show business clearly against her will. Kim may have taken Kendall on that New York modeling trip, but Kris arranged it and has been managing -- and forcing -- the poor girl's "career." Is no Kardashian/Jenner child allowed to pursue a non-show business path? The answer seems to be no, and that's all Kris's doing.

Winner:
Yolanda. As much as I hate dolls and Josh Smuggar, even they are not as heinous as someone who tries to beat down a pregnant child.

On that happy note, have an awesome weekend, everybody!

I'll have to rewatch Rivals, but I'd give it to Adam, because he's a dumbass and thug, and it's amazing for anybody on a Challenge to be ejected before CT. Yeah, there's a chance CT may have found some peace following the death of his brother, but is anybody really betting on that? Also, Adam's ejection meant that Leroy needed a new [male] partner . . . and I'm guessing Dustin (America's favorite undercover gay porn star) declined, meaning BMP had to get Mike. While Leroy and Mike were the closest examples of homo sapiens on the latest RW season, their friendship kinda messes up the whole "Rivals" theme.

The most hainous person on Reality TV this - and every oher week - is Mindy Monez and anyone else watching this unmitigsated crap - this is what keeps it on the air when all of these "stars" need to be sent packing back to their disgusting lives.

I didn't find Phyllis heinous, just really disturbing and uncomfortable to watch. I totally agree with Yolanda taking the prize this week.

The other case in that episode of Hoarders was far more heinous than Phyllis.

You know who deserves that title? The 9 children who didn't come to help their mother out of living in literal crap and garbage, without heat or plumbing.

Unfortunately, for many cloud computing platforms the vehicle analogy you provide doesn’t calculate. If you see a car as a means to an end, and all you worry about is getting there, then you need an application platform like Google’s AppEngine. Here you just add an app, and it will be taken care of. If however you run ec2, you’re no longer stressing about computer hardware, but still about instances and virtual servers. Every one of them run OS’s that need to be maintained; it’s like taking taxi’s but still having to know everything about the taxi’s engines. I predict that at some point we’ll move towards AppEngine like versions or ‘managed clouds’.
