The girl who does all the hip-hop dancing in stuff is not the ladyboy.

From what I remember, there's the black girl with huge cans, a girl who hip-hop dances, the he-she, and the short haired girl.

Chester IS annoying, but totally gets a free pass from me (and I think he IS trying to pass) because the transgender chick and her gothy crony are two of the most annoying people I've ever seen on tv.

Especially the tg who think everyone has to care about her panoply of "issues" but is one of the least considerate people ever.

I hate them both SO MUCH.

The hip hop girl is kinda cute but pathetic.

Here's an interview with Ryan about this:

Ryan took a few moments away from boot camp to talk with PopWrap as he prepares to ship out on April 15.

PopWrap: What was your first reaction to being called back?
Ryan: Wow. Disbelief. Things around me faded away and I was absorbed into the conversation. I didn't believe it at first, and then I didn't want to believe it. I really wanted my brother to be joking at that moment but he wasn't. My mind was racing so fast.

PW: What does your family think?
Ryan: I've got the greatest family in the world. Huge support. They support me in everything I do, 100%. They've done this before. They would have not liked to do this again but this is reality and this is here. We'll deal with it at hand and get through it. We've done it before, we can do it again. Did I mention they are the best?

PW: How do you feel about going back now that your date to ship out is nearing?
Ryan: It was tough to come to terms with at first. Everything happens for a reason. I've dealt with it and there's no way out of it now. I could if I truly want to, but I still have some pride in me. All of the men in the IRR (Individual Ready Reserve) who are called up still have some pride in what we did and are willing to do it again. I have another fight in me, I'll do it again. This deployment will be what I put into it so I'm going to give it my all.

PW: Do you know where you'll be stationed this time
Ryan: The destination is Iraq. Not sure of what my mission will be entirely but I'll be doing my old job. Infantry. Come what may. I'm an Active Duty IRR soldier attached to the North Carolina National Guard. It's a far different unit than I served with last time so I'm very optimistic, cautious, and ready.

PW: How long will you have to serve?
Ryan: My tour could be anywhere from 10 months, a year, or more. The Army changes at the drop of a hat. Who knows?

PW: Tonight's episode sees you guys celebrating Obama's victory, what do you think about his troop withdrawal plan?
Ryan: I'm so stoked that Obama has initiated a date for troop withdrawal from Iraq. It's about time. I'll be over there close to the date but I don't think I would like to extend to be a part of the last troops there. Then again, I love to be a part of history so who knows?

PW: Will you continue to use your music as a therapeutic tool?
Ryan: I have many outlets that I utilize that are a stress reliever for me. Obviously, I love to play stuff on the guitar. Mainly, I love to get lost in my eclectic music on my iPod. In whatever down time I get, I always put some tunes on, close my eyes, and I envision being anywhere but Iraq. It's very soothing. One does a lot of thinking and silent reflection over there in their down time.

PW: How have you changed since the last time you served?
Ryan: This time, I am not so scared. I'm not saying I'm not scared though. Infantry is infantry. The front line is the front line. Nothing is ever certain. This time I'm going to trust my instincts a lot more. The importance of working as a cohesive unit is a key for success in operations in my line of work and I will work hard to gain that with my new squad. I have more people behind me in support than just my family and I won't let them down. Knowing that millions of people have my back, I think it will be hard to feel lonely over there. I'll be thinking of the fans, my friends, and my family. Always.

PW: What message would you like to send America as you head back into the fray?
Ryan: I would like people who send me messages to stop calling me a hero. People these days use that term way too loosely. I'm not a hero, but I know a lot of them.

Tune in to "The Real World" tonight at 10pm on MTV to see how it all plays out.

I hope he makes it back safe.

Just got done watching this episode online and it was really sad. The scene where hes told he has to go back is heart breaking, he has a WTF look on his face that really shows the gravity of the situation. Ryan seems to be a really great guy and the world will be a sadder place if he dosent make it back.

Yeah, it would be.

I don't why I let this bug me so much, other than the fact that I know a few people who've been to Iraq. I've been trying to get in touch with one of them the past couple of days and can't. Kinda bothered by that.

Wait--What about Not-Gay-Chet??? They vandalized his cardboard cutout!!

I have a few friends from HS who've gone back and forth a few times and it always freaks me out when I don't hear from them for a week or so. So far they're all still with us. *knock on wood*

I finally got in touch with one of my friends this afternoon for a minute. He's in the Marnie Reserve, so there's a chance he could be called to go again.

And the sad thing is that the cutout had more personality than he did!

I know. Sad joke. But with all this crap going on with Ryan, well, I needed a moment of Outhouse style levity.

I don't know why this crap is getting to me.. no wait, I know why this crap is getting to me. I just wish it didn't have to for both his and my sakes.
