Re: Mally on tonight, what's up with, "cray cray"???

Cray Cray, Mommy, Preggers, Prolly....the English language continues to be destroyed...ugh!

As an aside - 
Call me skeptical, but the other night I was watching and a caller was really laying it on thick, telling Mally how brilliant she is, how fabulous the products are, what a wonderful person she is, and thanking her for all she does for us, etc.  Mally was brought to tears. Yesterday (I think it was yesterday),  I wanted to look up the new kit online.  I clicked on the video and Mally was with a different host, but on the video another caller was laying on the praise and Mally was brought to tears that time too!  I got a really weird feeling, wondering if QVC might have had something to do with arranging those calls as a way to get the viewing public to feel better about Mally (the company) given the recent developments, and also wondering if the tears were genuine or not.

"cray, cray mommie, come over here and let me make you beautiful... Come to mama" slag/gang talk and sometimes a little bit is funny. My hs teen students used to "test" me --- throwing out terms they thought I didn't know. I used those cray, cray terms ( the nice ones) back at them, sprinkling them within my speech patterns. They couldn't decide if I was their "cuz" "bro" or what.😎😎😎❤️

I believe Mally thinks she invited this word that in its correct form is the word "crazy".  She over uses the word with great zest and gusto, enough to make you "cray cray".  I don't hear this slang use of the word used much anymore, someone should tell her to make a new word.

Mally can be a bit much sometimes but I like her. I don't mind some of the phrases she uses but what I really dislike is  "redonkulous" or however it is spelled. I also don't like when hosts or vendors or callers say "I love you". Mally does this but so do alot of other vendors (and hosts and callers). Really? Or when someone says a makeup or hair product will "literally change your life". No, no it won't.

Glad to hear someone else say they hate hearing all the "I LOVE YOU'S"  between the hosts and reps....  Not only that, but the hugging that goes on is just way too unprofessional.   Once I saw Amy hug Chaz and it was just a little too personal or very UNBUSINESSLIKE!!!     I HATE THE KISSING TOO!!!!    Shawn is another one...  very unprofessional.   Can you all do your hugging, kissing and "I love you's" at home please????????

 

As far as Mally, I agree with the inappropriate slang...  I really don't want to hear an adult talk like a teenager, or an owner of a company especially!   One of the things I hate is when she refers to callers as "mama".   How does she know she's talking to a "mama" if we are going to get technical!   Regardless, no reason she should be using that word!   Love her otherwise and love her products!

HappyDaze, I agree with you!   I ate the "I love you's", kissing, hugging, between hosts and vendors.   It gets OUT OF HAND at times and to me is very UNPROFESSIONAL.  I will start a discussion to see how many other people feel like us!

When I first began watching QVC, my introduction to Mally was when she told a caller she'd be a MILF in whatever was being demonstrated at the moment.  Well, I knew what a MILF was and thought it was highly unprofessional and offensive for her to use such a vulgar term.  A lot of time has passed since then.  She's still loud and obnoxious, but I haven't heard that term since the first time.

I agree with those that don't care for all the silly talk.  I'm sure Mally is a nice person, but I find her hard to watch and listen to.  With all the shouting and shrieking I have to change the channel or mute the tv.
