Jill's Analogies

FaerieElf5 — Tue, 18 Feb 2014 20:12:59 GMT

Does it grate on anyone else when Jill REPEATEDLY analogizes about how you'd spend $300 on a Dooney handbag, but you would think twice about the item she's hocking at the moment??!!!! Nothing like insulting your other shoppers. Apples and Oranges.

Just how much ARE the apples and oranges she is selling?

Welcome to the boards!

I have more important issues that grate on my nerves. Certainly nothing a shopping channel host says will ever send me into a tizzy, LOL.

Nope. The analogy didn't bother me. Didn't even notice it.

Jane T. can do mindless analogies better than anyone. Like, what if you were in the jungle thinking about the days of your youth when you lived in the big city and danced for a living, when just at that moment a butterfly flew by that reminded you of an old flame, wouldn't you want to be wearing a bright red Quacker Factory tutu at that moment? Or some such nonsense.

OMG! Too funny! I could hear Jane T's voice while reading that analogy.

I really do love Jane, though. I had such a dysfunctional childhood, that when I hear about hers, I get so envious. Oh, how I wish I had had a mother like hers.

When you are in a ballet you don't want poisonous dry ice near you.

I must be slow on the uptake this AM. Can you explain this one to me, please?

jane was selling Dyson fans. The sales rep was demonstrating how the fan pulled in air and how it dispersed it. She was using dry ice fog to show the air movement. Jane made a comment on dry ice use at a ballet and that dancers didn't want to be near poisonous gases or something to that effect.

Jill doesn't bother me too much, but the "other one!" oh, my... that goes way back when on Sundays she had her silver show and I used to love the items, but couldn't stand her with her nonsens, or voice, so I'd have to either switch it to another channel, or turn the sound off. Speaking off that show, I wish we'd have another 4 hr STERLING ONLY - NO GEMS, SHOW, presented by someone else!
