4 Reasons This Season Of "The Bachelor" Is The Absolute Worst

Even though I still watch every Monday night.

This season of "The Bachelor" has been called the most “dramatic season ever,” but I’d beg to differ.

The women are awesome this season and have made it more enjoyable to watch, but Arie seems like he questions why he’s on the show every week. Here are a few reasons why I’m not a fan of "The Bachelor" this season (despite the fact that I watch it every week):

1. Arie’s Minimal Vocabulary

Arie’s most favorite words are “amazing” and “wonderful,” rendering his descriptions of every woman and every destination sound exactly the same. He talks so much about how he’s feeling, but he honestly never says anything. Especially when his monologues consist of something similar to “Peru is just so beautiful. Kendall is amazing, wonderful, and quirky.” What does that really mean, Arie?

2. The Bowling Group Date

This date was so awful and truly I’m not sure how half of it made it on TV. Arie literally licked a bowling ball (why?) in a weird preview to the date. After the date ended, Arie had the audacity to invite both the winning and losing teams of women to the cocktail party that night. Krystal lost it and didn’t show up to the cocktail party, because she felt betrayed by Arie. So of course, Arie goes to comfort her, taking time away from the non-petty women.

3. Hometown Dates

This season’s hometown dates felt forced to me, especially because Arie told every set of parents that he was falling in love with their daughter. Kendall’s family seemed less than enthused with Arie and with the prospect that Kendall would want to be engaged. Lauren B.’s family couldn’t believe they were meeting another prospective husband of hers. Even Tia’s family (rightfully) had their doubts if Arie was the one.

4. Lauren B.’s Personality

Every week, I am stunned that Lauren B. gets another rose and that Arie can’t stop talking about how deeply he is falling in love with her, despite the fact that she says about 10 words each episode. Lauren B. seems like a nice girl and I can understand how she is so nervous, considering she’s been engaged two times before.

BUT, Arie constantly is telling her how he “sees it” with her and she had to know what she was getting into when she chose to go on the show. No matter how much Arie says he sees a future with Lauren B., I am certainly not “seeing it.”

I've lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Why Theater Kids Are the Greatest People Ever

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
