I think it has been well established, time and nauseating time again, that I am a Bravo TV Superfan. It’s a mantle I take seriously. Responsibilities I must uphold. And that’s why after watching just two episodes of The Real Housewives of Dallas, the newest franchise, and not enjoying it at all, I had to convince myself to continue to watch.
OK, it wasn’t that hard a sell, because I don’t have a life and what else am I going to do, but there is the Logo channel to consider. And the POP channel, that shows reruns of quality programming like The Love Boat and has weekend long Facts of Life marathons. So as a consumer, I have choices.
I figured I should at least take to Twitter and chirp away about it though, because what else does one do? Surely the world was waiting for my opinion. So I tweeted one of the Housewives a comment about the show and its lack of story line and abundance of bad jokes about poop. A fan of the show responded to me with what I thought was a very funny comment, alluding to the fact that I have a whopping total of 240 followers and the Housewife involved has more like 12,000. I told her that was the kind of humor I was looking for! She went on to apologize for making the comment, which just about ruined it for me. I mean, I was asking for it, right? It was disappointing, especially since she calls herself “Bitch-aint-havin-it” on Twitter. Apparently, Bitch-was-havin-it.
The whole conversation is below. Enjoy. And if you don’t enjoy, tell me. I can handle it, honest.
Jill Foer Hirsch@BrandiRedmond poop jokes don’t make me laugh! I’m not an 8 yo boy. Try wit, snark, sarcasm, dry irreverent Any adult humor would work

Meant as a compliment I can dish it out and I can take it
Bitch-aint-havin-it
I use Twitter a lot and get some of the strangest direct messages at times. It’s a weird universe.
It is weird but I like it. Fun exchanges like this!
Oh, yeah, I know where to come when I want a big, heaping serving of sarcasm. Snark on, Jill!!
I do seem to have a knack. I suppose I should try to develop other facets of my personality like being nice and stuff. Taking under advisement.
I haven’t figured out the whole Twitter thing. Yes I have an account. WordPress said I should have one. It’s that hashtag stuff that gets me! I think the two of you were on different planets but I love your response. Snark!
I really love Twitter have been using it a lot. Hardly ever just to be #snarky though. Hardly ever.
Uh, 240 followers is a lot of people! With that many watching your every word, you have a lot of influence. Miss bitch-ain’t-havin-it only has five more followers than you and I’m sure is much less influential because she ain’t usin the English language properly – even by twitter standards! You go girl!
Trust me, not that hard to rack up followers on Twitter. At least half are probably people who want to sell me something (like an analysis of my followers). I gave Miss Bitch two snaps for her response to me! I thought she was hilarious. But I stop at two snaps. Cause that’s my absolute limit.
