And them (removed by moderator - we can skip the derogatory words, ok?) already got the claws out! I know a lot of Atlanta people hate the RHOA, but I see it for what it is -- stupid fun. The show doesn't glamorize or celebrate these women, it ridicules them, and anybody who thinks it reflects badly on the city is giving it WAY too much credit. (And if you look past the women, the show makes the city look GORGEOUS!)

LOL! But I don't see what the big deal is. They're a whole lot less offensive or embarrassing than thise kids on "Jersey Shore."

Well, one of those words is right anyway. (And it ain't the word "fun")

RHOA = Total Guilty Pleasure. It was like a reunion of old friends last night.

So with that way of thinking, if one group of people call each other a certain word, we should allow that word to be used in postings here? Um - no. Let's skip the derogatory words, folks. Thank you.
