WTF??? Mon, 7/20 --- Fri, 7/24

[franron]

Molly and Alexis join in to double-team Kristina, because I guess it hurts all three to hear Kristina's observations about Sam. Sam becomes speechless, over things said, just like Kristina can be rendered speechless from '...Well, oh, yeah, how about how you can't work a relationship, either?'. Seems like it would have been better for Molly and Alexis to stand back and watch them fight it out, as though Sam, and her sensitive feelings, need protecting.

The whole scene was stupid, to me. Just a way/use to spill secrets, to further the show along.

Brook Lynn wears old lady clothes, even in the boxing ring (that jacket).

Sonny can't be happy that his rapidly declining father even eats anything at all. Compares the applesauce to the food that his baby daughter eats. Still trying to work Mike into responding to him (Sonny) and his presence, for Sonny's benefit.

I've probably already said all this back, when this episode was first shown, just the other month. Re-hash....

Oh, look! Another incident of fresh blood (Sasha's towel), moving about the hospital. Riding elevators, going down hallways. Like, why aren't they down at the ground floor, street entrance ER, getting that nose/face taken care care of?

Oh, look! Another incident of fresh blood (Sasha's towel),

Yeah that is a LOT of blood! That looks scary!! Why isn't she having it taken care of right away!!

[OLTL'69]

lets wander about the hospital until a doctor offers to help rather than wait in the ER (or urgent care) with all the little people who don't have those connections with the doctors

[sonyab1974]

"OLTL'69 commented lets wander about the hospital until a doctor offers to help rather than wait in the ER (or urgent care)"

Yeah let's wander around the hospital until you bleed to death.

[OLTL'69]

SHe wasn't even pinching her nose

[franron]

It seems to me as though Sasha's model face would be jacked up, if all that blood come from a cut across her nose, calling for the cliche tape bandage, instead of your garden variety bloody nose because it got whacked, and bled profusely from the inside, until it was finished.

[OLTL'69]

Thank you I wondered WTF that bandage on the outside of the unbroken nose was suppose to do

[xoregonian]

Her nose didn't have a scratch on it. There was really no need for that bandage, unless it was just for pressure.

[sonyab1974]

“OLTL'69 commented SHe wasn't even pinching her nose”

😂😂 True!!! Michael looked like he didn’t even care!!!

[soapgirl9]

Shouldn't she have been tilting her head back or something? Similar to when you get a bloody nose?

[franron]

I could be wrong but, I thought black eyes were part of mega-hard whacks to the nose. Never had one myself, but I've seen that happen on TV.

[wfreshie2130]

yeah you are to pinch the nose and lean forward even though that sounds like the opposite of what to do

[soapgirl9]

Thanks everyone! I've never experienced that, but now I know what not to do if I get hit in the nose. I do think I've heard getting hit in the nose would cause bad bruising under the eyes. Is there truth to that?

[franron]

Is it true that the arrested gets to sit, chained to the table, unattended, with a phone right there, to keep calling anyone and everyone, until they can get someone to come bail them out of jail?

Or, is that just a PCPD courtesy, the way they do things in Soap Town? What does, '...your one phone call...make it a good one....' mean?

[franron]

Also, why didn't Julian escort Nelle out the door, and tell his worker she isn't allowed on the premises, instead of just walking out, telling his worker not to serve her? Like, she can stay inside, take up valuable table space, and visit with whoever happens by.

[sonyab1974]

Shouldn't she have been tilting her head back or something? Similar to when you get a bloody nose?

No no you should never do that when you have a bloody nose. The blood would go down your throat. That's not good. Pinching your nose is better.

I have to laugh when Diane says that little Wiley has "gone through so much trauma". WTF? The kid is as happy as ever, and always is. He doesn't know or understand that anything is changing. He's always been well-cared for and has constantly been around Michael and Willow, so where's the trauma?

[OLTL'69]

Likely the biggest loss for him is the one no one talks about . That is Brad. Brad had been with him since the day he was bprn. He had two daddies but Brad was always there and since Lucas was ina coma for months Brad was the parent But losing his dads was the trauma

I wonder why the thread covering the daily recap/happenings, of the day's episode, gets closed really early, with only a few posts before it gets closed. I've noticed this a time or two already, and, it happened again today.

I emailed a Mod at Y&R (where they close the live thread the minute the show has finished airing on the east coast) and she said she was told by a senior Mod to close the live thread as soon as it's over East Coast Time. She let everyone know the threads were going to be closed at exactly 12:30. The west coast posters are out of luck if they want to post in those threads while seeing the show live.

[franron]

To me, it wasn't so much a live thread, as a this is what's happening, because then, posters comment about what's going on, on the show, unlike the old days Live Thread where no comments were allowed, just telling the show as it plays out.

[xoregonian]

Yes, several of the boards here do it differently, which is why I tried to get some clarification. I didn't even consider the daily on-going threads for these old repeats as "live threads". I was just looking to comment on the days' show as they aired. They allow comments on the daily threads at YR, until they close the thread.

[xoregonian]

I'm really tired of the flashback of the flashback of the flashback. I mean, WTF? How many times are we going to have to endure Brooklyn punching Sasha? I know we've seen it at least 5 times this week alone. I can't stand that clunky Brooklyn.

I know why they did it, but re-living it again this soon is just agonizing.

[franron]

That tape bandage really did it's job, on Sasha's nose. No trace of a cut, no scar, as promised on the General Hospital Brochure.

[OLTL'69]

ol no cut on the outside before but hey GH is the place to go if yo don't want a scar

It kind of reminded me of how I would put a bandage on a preschooler for an owie just to feel better
