A Six Flags hero, a man who is so dedicated to screening his calls that he even does it when he's lost in the wilderness, illegal sprinkles, Daniel Craig reinventing masculinity, Hooters showing that they can be even more out of touch, and a delusional (or vengeful) ninja. These are all of your news items this week. Also, we switched to Fridays because it just makes more sense.

LATE DELIVERY! Jasmine was away last week, so this week it's a double episode drop! In episode 2 of The Bachelorette with Katie Thurston, we witness some cowboy knee wrestling and spend most of the episode wondering what the heck Aaron and the zipper sales manager are even beefing about. Wonderfully, Katie wastes no time in getting rid of men who would have otherwise absorbed most of the screen time with repetitive drama.

While it may sound like Cole is sedated, in actuality he is amped to get into Jasmine's experience through episode 9 of The Bachelorette Canada, aka the "fantasy suite" dates. Unfortunately these dates are much less of a fantasy than the viewers might assume.

The Bachelorette Canada may have aired 5 years ago, but the abhorrence towards Cole's least favourite contestants remains irrationally current.

If you want to see how badly Cole can annoy Jasmine, this is the episode for you! In a particularly argumentative and off-topic episode of Friends Off, the two of them discuss insane conspiracy theories, unhealthy iced tea consumption and foot fetishes, while still managing to cover episode 5 of The Bachelorette Canada. Next stop, Morocco!
