WTF Wednesday: Is Imitation The Sincerest Form Of Flattery?

I Have A Twitter Account And I’m Not Afraid To Use It
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 … Continue reading
