Pet Peeves

Just a couple.....

JULIA, stop with the front tuck on EVERY thing you wear, it is not attractive.

DAVID, why not look at the camera when you talk to us? Looks off-putting.

(I know, change the channel)

I do not watch a lot of the presentations but I have noticed that Julia seems to have that half tuck going on each time I see her and it is NOT a good look for her at all.

I do watch David when I can but have not noticed that being an issue with him, I'll pay closer attention!

@charsha Good catch!

Come to think about it you are absolutely correct! I also have noticed that w/David. He constantly stares at the monitor that shows how fast or slow the products are selling. Or the monitor that shows how much time is left on selling a product.

He rarely looks/stares at me!

I think Julia is probably doing this to better show the TSV pants that she is wearing.

I especially get my feelings hurt when Rick Domeir doesn't wink at me during his presentations. When did our relationship go wrong?

Not a pet peeve, but Rick wears blue 95% of the time. He did have on a red shirt for the Christmas show yesterday though.

I don't really care if Julia front tucks, back tucks, side tucks or doesn't tuck. I just wish she'd ditch the jeans she constantly wears and starts looking somewhat professional.

@lgfan - Hilarious. 😂

He's never winked at me or, if he did, I just thought it was an eye twitch, so no hurt feelings here.

1. I think the half-tuck is great, if you want to look like you forgot to finish dressing. And how can that be comfortable, walking around lop-sided? They should stop doing that.

2. One peeve of mine is the way Gary Goben mispronounces “comfortable.” This word has three syllables in American English, not four. However, “com-fer-tuh-bul” is correct in British English, so I can’t make a big deal out of it; it’s just one of those things that grates on me more than it should.

3. Every female host claims to be a size or two smaller than she really is. No, Jane, you are not an extra-extra-small, and that shirt looks ridiculous on you. Kim, when you wear a medium top, it pulls across your chest and belly, and accentuated your belly roll. Wear a large; you will look and feel so much better!

4. The misuse of “zhuzh.” Every one of the hosts thinks “zhuzh up” means “push up the sleeves.” This is incorrect. If you zhuzh up an outfit, you add something to it, a little pizazz or sparkle or something special. There’s nothing special about pushing up your shirtsleeves.

That’s all I’ve got for now, but I’ll think of more after I post this.

I agree with @DrumPounder's number 3 in your post. It's like it's shameful if you're not an XXXS. Amy is always telling us she's an XXS, which she may be, but annoys me when during a clothing presentation she goes over to larger model and says, "now (model's name) is wearing the top in 2X and I'M wearing it in the XXS. Of course!

A certain host who uses "lovely" to describe every product.

@DrumPounder Add cott-in and butt-in to the list. I want to throw my shoe at the tv when those 2 words are pronounced that way. I think some of them do it on purpose just to annoy people. It works.

The host who says "UM" every other word.

The host who says "LITERALLY" every other word.
