Ugh, I am so ready for this. I disappeared the last three weeks to help pack up my parent's house for their renovation and omg do they have SO. MUCH. CRAP. But I'm at my friend's house now to help her after her surgery and she has given me permission to share all her Oxycontin fueled snark with y'all

15 min till start time, right?

Yeah. I live oustide the US, so its not worth it paying 49.99 (US) just for nationals. All international events are geoblocked for overseas subscribers.
I will rely on you guys and people uploading videos.

Us Figure skating has an official DJ called DJ Romeo and the announcer just admitted he didn't know his cohost's last name until he read her name tag right before they went on air.

Oh dear god, I was hoping you would do the live commentary. I'll do my best, but take note of my tag line

First warm up group is about to take the ice.

Edit: yeah... I'll leave this to Layback and WordsworthGirl

Alexandria Shaugnessy/James Morgan

Music: Grease

Costumes: hers is a black sparkly short sleeve unitard and his is black pants and a black t shirt with black leather vest that had "T Birds" in crystals on the back

Elements:

3Tw
SBS 3S-he doubles, she falls
Pair spin
Lift-two positions
3STh-hands down
StSq-both getting really into it
Death spiral-a little high


Cute program, sold the heck out of that! Troubles on the SBS. Somebody threw them footballs so they have footballs in the Kiss and Cry.

Score: 42.16

The skaters are having a little dance party while waiting to get on the ice

Marissa's dress is a beautiful sparkly gold lace applique :luv17: Mervin is in practice clothes. C'mon, man, step it up if you're gonna be with a woman like Marissa

Alexandra and James are dressed like Danny and Sandy at the end of Grease

Elizaveta is in a sleeveless high neck maroon dress with a slit up the side, sheer maroon back, and gold applique. Matej is wearing a grey satin Russian folk tunic with maroon and gold trim.

Alex and James on now.

Soon as pairs event starts, and I'm getting this patchy, blurry, skipping stream all of a sudden. I am so tired of IceNetwork not being able to figure out technical problems during streaming!!!

My friend 'B': Oh, woooow...she fell down. I can tell that much!

Alex fell on SBS and hand down on throw thus far. Trying to explain to B the difference between a fall and a hand down
