I try to envision myself fitting into the families.  That's important.  The Hoxie family was nice, down to earth but too small town.  Those Easter Suppers will be long and full of Kraft products.  The giant Italian family reminds me of the one I married into but minus the overt intrusions into my psyche and absent the awkward as hell father.  Also, why do they ALL use the word "like" so much?  Every single - like - one of them.  Corrine revolts me; her father could be Mr. Johnny Walker Blue himself and I'd run fast and furious away with all of them, but not before offering their domestic slave emancipation.  I'd fit in best with Rachel's family.  Like their humor, though her father would probably not find me funny, like, at all.

Federal Judges don't find very many people funny.

 
I don't know about you guys but I would enjoy rolling around in the swamp with Raven. I know she's got some country crazy going on, but she actually seems like somebody you could hang out and talk to. 

 
Oh no question about it. She seems like a cool girl. And it's probably the most low maintenance of the families. The other 3 were expecting their daughters to marry some top of the heap dude. Raven's family is probably just happy nick isnt managing a Piggly Wiggly or something.

 
That Vanessa girl must have WIGGED OUT after her last break-up, considering how her family was acting.

She should be furious, her whole family visit was a huge downer. She's the one that joined the freaking marriage contest, not exactly the guy's fault.

I think that was rice. I looked it up last night and they grow it in that part of Arkansas.

Okay, I would enjoy rolling around in the rice paddie with Raven. Who knew Arkansas and Vietnam had similarities? The bachelor is very educational.

 
speaking of Corinne's father: 

"This is 15 year old, single malt scotch" [toasts with 5 ice cubes in his glass]

jackass. 

 
"That's where you put your thumb."

I kept thinking "you need a flattened spot on the glass for you to put your thumb on?" I don't get it.

i chuckled at that last night. some "stemless" wine glasses have a little groove for your thumb to rest in as you hold the bulb. 

not that i've never drunk whiskey from a wine glass, but that guy thought he was eight kinds of classy with those glasses. 

still a jackass.

He reminds me a lot of my father in law.  I kept expecting him to say something like "15 year old scotch - I got so much of this in the pantry, I use it to wash my balls.  You marry my little girl and we'll get out the good stuff."

 
He should really pick Corrine.

Yeah, she's a flake.

He's been on the bachelor how many times now? So is he.

She's hot, loaded, and is 100% good in bed.

You only live once folks.

He seems to have great chemistry with Rachel, Raven and Corinne.

Winner:  Vanessa

Because he's dumb.

It'll be Vanessa because he wants to believe he's a good enough person to be married to the super family-oriented Canadian woman who teaches developmentally disabled adults. He should be kickin' in it Arkansas with low expectations, though, if he wants to be happy.

We have a neighbor lady across the street I lovingly refer to as "Looney Tunes".  She's got a heart of gold but my god is she a sloppy drunk.  She has two small kids and her husband works nights, so she comes over on weekends to pass the time and usually I end up kicking her out after she spills red wine on my white couch.  Anyhow, I make her use a stemless glass with a thumb groove when she comes over now.  Up until last night, she's the only adult I know who needed this sort of 'grip' on a wine glass.

Yeah, I could get used to riding 4-wheelers, climbing grain silos and making love in a bog.*

*There's not a chance in hell I could pull off nor sustain the blood flow necessary to have successful sex in a place that might have water moccasins or leeches.

I didn't think snakes or leeches, I was thinking about that catfish species that crawls up your pee-hole.

Came here just for this exact sentiment. 

The family could NOT stop discussing how they didn't want her to get hurt again, or deal with it again. The mom basically starting crying at the thought of what she had to deal with the last time.

That family almost seemed like they wanted to get Nick to end it now, before it goes further and it ruins her even more

 
jfranco77 said:
Apparently it was already leaked that she was doing it.

They seemed so good together, I am almost wondering if he did pick her and f'd it up somehow?

Ravyn +150
Vanessa +300
Corinne +500
Andi +500
Rachel +700

That seem about right?
Click to expand...
Andi +1 million

Rachel +1 million

 
Was there any mention on the show as to Rachel's father not being there? Maybe I fast-forwarded through, but I didn't notice any and it seemed very odd.

Not exactly; Rachel said he had "work obligations."   But in truth, U.S. district judges are supposed to avoid both "lending prestige" to any activity in their private lives and doing anything that "detracts from the dignity of the office."  You can see the problem. 

Enforcement of this involves wide latitude and deference to the judge's discretion, and he's a fairly senior judge, not some rookie.  So it may be that we see him on Rachel's upcoming season, but he saw no reason to compromise his personal ethics for some serial mactor-contestant dude dating four girls at once including his daughter.

 
I think Vanessa is a pretty cool chick and if he somehow picks her it's going to piss me off. She's way too good for him. He's just such a doofus, that the only one I can see him with is Corrine because she is such a #### show. I feel sorry for any of these other girls if they end up with him. Corrine has been my least favorite from the start, and even more so now after that ridiculous hometown. I sure how he ends up with her.

 
I kind of hope Raven doesn't win because I would love to see more of her in bachelor in paradise. I really don't want to see Corrine in BIP because she annoys me way too much.

It seems like she has some problems with her complexion that she covers up with makeup. She gets that fixed and she will be super hot.
