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.

I agree, I've heard it all now.  People getting  ___hurt because a host isn't looking at them.  smh


 

 

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


@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.
