Who do you think was better? The very first girl at the beginning of the show or the last one?

I hate you.

But it's true. There's been no one that you've looked at and gone: "Frontrunner." How many more audition shows?

[Jcorona]

I'm sorry, wilson. I don't know how many more auditions.

But yeah, where's the few who blow us away during auditions every year?

They're either not showing them or a few that we've seen will shine in Hollywood.

So far they seem to be concentrating either on people who are incredibly bad or people who have some kind of feel-good story (sometimes both). Other singers, however good they may be, don't seem to be getting the air-time.

Question: Yellow-ticket holders who walk back out pretending they didn't make it to fool their families & friends, only to whip out the ticket to surprise them in the end.

Cheesy or not? Getting old or not?

Discuss...

My issue is always that I can't tell where the walk out door/curtain is in relation to the judging area. Which always makes me think that the family can hear ahead of time if they made it. And yet they still act surprised when the person shows them the golden ticket.

Man, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that's played out.

It's like those people who still raise the roof.

My grandmother hit bingo and tried to raise the roof but couldn't get her hands above her shoulders.

She turned to me and said, "I can't raise the roof, mijo."

I said, "You need to raise your heartbeat and your breast off O-65."

Then a miracle happened and she raised her hand high above her head and right down into my face.

Yeah, they wanna tug at our hearts.

For those of you who don't have a heart, I don't know what to tell you.

You go to bingo with your granny?

Not really, White. That was a lie. I stretch the truth sometimes.

But this is true, I swear. Years ago, my mother begged me over and over to go to bingo with her to show me off. So I finally gave in and went with her to pay her back and then some for those 28 hours of labor I caused when I was born. And I swear, I was surrounded by senior citizens who peed themselves and farted all night long.

The funny thing is, they were laughing at me 'cause I felt and looked uncomfortable. It's like they did it even more and gave each other signals and funny looks and stuff. It was weird.

I bingoed like 12 out of 14 games.
