Discussion Questions
TV Guide's Watercooler had an interesting list of Lingering Laguna Life Questions. (Sadly, Bartleby couldn't provide me with a synonym for "Question" beginning with an L. So much for alliteration, I guess.)ANYWAY, here are the questions...Below? My answers. The Comments Section? For your opinions. Take it away, darlings.
1) Jason the Chronic Cheater: Good guy or self-destructive? And who were those chicks advising L.C.? They looked like a before-and-after of Ashlee Simpson's latest run-in with L'Oreal No. 36.
2) Um, when should we tell Talan that counseling J-Wahl on winning back his girl was gayer than Pepito the Wonder Chihuahua's cable-knit roll-neck sweater (which, FYI, is totally fetching with his bone structure).
3) Do we think Steeephen will finally realize he's a massive tool once he gets to L.A. and doesn't matter anymore?
4) Since when did "party" become six people sitting around drinking from red plastic cups and eating from takeout containers? That's a Tuesday night at TV Guide magazine, OK?5) Who the hell do I have to talk to around here to get some more Lo? This is ridiculous. She's home from school, but I gotta look at Dieter?
6) Where did Lauren learn that girls with crappy guys should hope they're "worth changing for"? Even if she totally bounced J-Wahl after his apology, the girl needs to remember she is every woman. Obviously, she didn't read the column last week.
7) Did you preorder your copy of Laguna Beach: Life Inside the Bubble? Get on it, folks!
Bonus No.1: After filming stopped, do we hope that Poor Dumb Jessica got a) back together with that hot Jeff dude who Kristin hooked up with; b) back at Awful Alex M. for calling her a slut; or c) hooked on phonics?
Bonus No. 2: What are you wearing to next week's finale?
1. Jason is ick-tastic, monosyllabic, and his facial hair? Less than fantastic. If my only hope of repopulating the earth was to mate with him...Things would definitely be monastic. As for Heidi and Jen...Harmless. But they're no Lo.
2. TVGasm has done some excellent discussion of the homosexual undercurrents on this show, (See: Cedric calling Jason "cutie" in the graduation episode) and quite frankly, I don't think there's anything I can add.
3. But he hangs out with PARIS. Ste-phan must be important. Right? RIGHT??
4. Red plastic cups are universal code for drinks that you don't want the camera to see. See: Every episode when the kids are drinking. I will admit that although it had a lovely view, decidedly delicious looking catering (I think the takeout containers were a cutesy version of paper plates that most of us would use at an outdoor party) the turnout was less than stellar.
5. I want mo' Lo. Think LC trashing her relationship in the V-Day episode caused a riff?
6. Yeah, I got nothin' on this one.
7. Um...Yes. Right here.
Bonus 1: She should get hooked on self-esteem.
Bonus 2: Uggs and a shredded denim skirt, obvs.

I have done extensive thinking on the Jason question. I actually think the answer might be: neither. Not to be a J-Wahl apologist, but maybe he's just young. Really, at 18, who does make the best decisions? Who is able to think long-term?
Of course, I also think he looks like a half-assed Backstreet Boy, so it's really in his best interest to get it together quickly so he's able to make the most of his 15 minutes.
