Definately complimentary with the beach crowd.  

Also in with the beach/bro crowd is the phrase "Do me a solid..."

As in, "Do me a solid and pass me that beer."

Beautiful and witty to describe Lauren.
Solid to describe Becca.
Yep, he wanted/wants Lauren. Jmho.

I wonder how he will explain his proposal to Becca? How will he downplay that? I hope he doesn’t tell her she’s really “solid”. I can’t wait to see that proposal right before we see him break up with her. 

My guess is he will say that he had to follow his heart and his heart is with Lauren. We can't blame him for following his heart now can we? . I still think he is going to be raked over the coals for doing this.

I'm not buying anything Arie is selling. If Arie marries Lauren then and only then will I compare him to Jason. Because to be real, imo there's no way Jason would be looked at favorably now if he had ended up dumping Molly too. Imo it's because Jason married Molly that is the only reason the Mesnick can be painted in a positive light and Arie can try to benefit off of that result. Thing is, I just don't see Arie like Jason at all and Arie will have to prove himself before I buy anything he sells

This shows he was in NYC. He may have flown from there to LA where he might have run into Wells. He is probably in LA for the filming of the WTA.

Yeah not going to be fun to watch his proposal to Becca. and then ATFR. Usually CH goes "and the lead is engaged to F1" once it comes on, what's he supposed to say this time?? Still wondering if it will be a closed set or if there will be an audience for live booing and tears.

@havadrpepper Thanks! It seems so early for WTA. We should keep an eye out on others to confirm that are travelling for the taping.

I can not wait for the AFTR. I am dying to know how TPTB are going to squeeze everything in... the ex-boyfriend's proposal/rejection, Lauren's rejection, Arie's proposal, Arie's Struggle (TM), Becca's break-up, Lauren's reconnection, etc.. And then Harrison, obviously, needs to slice and dice it and make all players sit on his couch of confrontation. And, THAT'S what I really want to see. All the awkward, uncomfortable pauses and sideways glances and weird body language of Arie (especially Arie!) but Becca and Lauren too.

Question - is the Bachelorette always revealed at the ATFR?

RS claims the WTA is taping Tues Feb 13. Maybe he's coming to LA for a SHV prior to that? Any news on where Lauren is this coming weekend?

@pavalygurl no movement for Lauren, I checked when I checked Arie's SM. It's been two weeks since they both liked SM at the same time. I was thinking perhaps it's time for another SHV.

GA, I am still trying to figure out how a WTA taping on Feb 13 could play out.  The audience wouldn't be shown the later episodes and thus not spoiled.  But at this point there are still seven women in the mix and that would be awkward for them to have to play out as if they are still at this point in the season as to eliminations.  IDK what scenario would work here, if RS is even correct.

ETA correction. AS of Tues Feb 13 there would still be four women, so maybe that means none of the F4 would be there??? Tia loses out on a chance to "confront" Arie.
